A new adventure and long rant post

Hello, it's been a minute hehe. I've been dealing with some things lately and it's been a trying couple three months since I last posted. I started a new adventure. I have turned my son, Skunky Luke the cat, into a new entity! It' been fun. Well, it was fun up until a couple women decided they were going to attempt a takeover and steer the direction away from me.


I shutdown on 4-9-2026. It was a damn depressing, angry day. I shut my phone off at 7pm and DO NOT remember any of that until when hubby came home. When this one particular incident occurred on my Facebook page, I thought, wow, my first protest. I was touched at first. But the post was kind of upsetting later. Now, let me give you some background on my son's page first.


When I made my son's page, facebook.com/skunkyluke, I always envisioned him and his friends on whacky adventures. I never knew what those adventures would be. When we first got him at 17 weeks old, he instantly became Inspector Skunky. Then later, he got the middle name, Luke. When I created his page, it became Detective Skunky Luke. And we were having case files every Wednesday. His fans were loving it. Only 2 out of 6 were against it. But one of them 2 played along.


I also have his real-life photos and videos of him on there. Now, these 2 were trying to say that it should only be about Skunky Luke and his friends, no humans, ever. I was like, um excuse me, I never wanted that vision for him. So, I thought I had it solved by deleting all those comments how these two were conversing WITHOUT EVEN ASKING ME!!!! HIS MUM! So, you're telling me, me his mum, cannot be involved? That is unacceptable!


I was open to suggestions at first. Anyone could submit their idea for a case or adventure. But one just was doing it a lot. Texting me like 5 ideas in a row. Then I made a cool suggestion of the Samurai video Skunky did with his BFF Snowball and they were chasing a coyote, but the coyote, Kagehowl, was leading them? I suggested, what if the coyote leads them to this farm idea the one had. She flat out said you posted that last week and no!


HOW DARE YOU tell me no to one of my ideas but yours all good and must happen? Then she proceeded to tell me if I'm going to do children's books they all should be different. I'm not stupid. I said, yeah, I already have 4 books planned with Glenn. She got ticked; I could tell cause all she said was Who is Glenn? I said, my writing partner. She couldn't congratulate or say anything nice. I said ty for your suggestions and had to just be done.


This happened once before to. And she tried to tell me to keep everything separate and that Skunky should not be under my DR site. I said you know how expensive that is? She never even acknowledged what I said. It was like talking to myself. I pay $17.95 a year for digitalreverence.net. If I don't pay on time when it renews, it's an additional $100 to renew.


No one helps with that. No one helps with the designs, the videos. She was just throwing out only her ideas and telling me no to mine. That is not how you collaborate. I tried building a team for him. I'm not. It's hard to get everyone together. And I messaged her about the last case and got ignored. She never acknowledged the fact I spent three days in the making on all of the winner's certificates for the successful Easter hunt,


So, just telling my fans what has been going down lately. I'm not complaining, just stating facts. Just stating facts and what it takes to run a website like this. Giving a little incite to you all who visit almost daily. I spend 12 to 15 hour days bringing all of what you see here to life, by myself with no help from no one. I tried doing a team with that thing from England, ha. I'm always the bad guy when I try to stick up for myself. I hate that more than anything! And it's always from women!

Do not post on MY Facebook after I ask for boundaries and come at me saying something about suggestions. I didn't even read the post after that and deleted it. I wish I would have saved it but eh. I was so upset! I SHUTDOWN FROM 7PM UNTILL 11PM. I DO NOT REMEMBER THOSE 4 HOURS DUE TO THAT. I'm a strong person like my female characters, but when others are coming at me trying to tell me how to run my son's page, when they never come to visit him or help take care of him when we were there for 3 weeks, HOW DARE YOU!! I was open to their suggestions for a time, but even on my post, I was nice. I said it had gone too far. The one who posted to my wall had no idea about the other one just trying to take away my son's page from me! NEVER AGAIN!


If you wish to check it out, facebook.com/skunkyluke we still have fun and he has solid fans. I have removed both of those individuals. One is hubby's sister-in-law. Will we ever reconcile after this? Um, prolly not. She did this once more, trying to say I stole the back of a book blurb for Zander from Jen's world. When I proved her wrong, she never apologized.


I've been holding posting this. But I'm so sick of these women thinking they can push me around like this. When I state I don't like how they are conversing back and forth without asking me first, that is just, wrong. Am I in the wrong here? This is exactly how it happened. And yes, I liked the protest comment at first but then went through it again and was like wtf. I tried talking to another friend and she kept saying I was complaining. How is it complaining when I'm stating the facts!?


I swear, I have to explain every time I talk with damn warning tags now. And it's upsetting! I just wanted all of this off my chest. I'm not dogging anyone. I'm stating the facts of what went down. In my post about boundaries, I never called anyone out. I was saying how I was not okay with how people just think they can take over. Next time, I'm listening to my BFF.
