Thanks to Roxy, she saved from losing my money.<BR/><BR/>This instance won't change me a bit. It is the 2nd time I've been scammed on the board and by someone well known.

I admit that I've had a bad vibe about that girl almost from day one, but I thought it was just me being a bitch. I just don't trust easily and don't buy into every sob story I hear. There are a million sob stories out there. I'm really sorry that nice, trusting people were taken advantage of and hurt. That sucks.<BR/><BR/>Now, onto the good things. Your socks are lovely.

And she got drunk the night before she started the job at the bakery. Which, after two days, she was asked not to come back to. Fucking up that bakery job, which we all rallied behind her to get in the first place, was probably the worst of it all.turtlegirl76https://www.blogger.com/profile/04224031164435800839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15008975.post-1160928367195315912006-10-15T11:06:00.000-05:002006-10-15T11:06:00.000-05:00Super socks and a gesture that reflects the genero...Super socks and a gesture that reflects the generosity of most Knitty folk.<BR/><BR/>It makes me angry and sad that such generosity has been exploited so a huge thank you to yourself and Roxy for speaking out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15008975.post-1160896641731954452006-10-15T02:17:00.000-05:002006-10-15T02:17:00.000-05:00((hugs)) like i said to roxy, you have a beautiful...((hugs)) like i said to roxy, you have a beautiful heart. that is more beautiful than the uglines of people who would take advantage of it. <BR/><BR/>those socks rock. :)veritashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015121793347338609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15008975.post-1160881259299229692006-10-14T22:00:00.000-05:002006-10-14T22:00:00.000-05:00Great socks!

Knittyheads need to see this and know so that if any people out there were planning on sending her more money - or any in the future - that they are warned ahead of time and don't send her any more money.
