Good morning sweets,
I am spending my morning updating all my apples so that they are connected at all times. Makes the geek in me very happy :) It’s taking its sweet time though…
This weekend a lovely reader tweeted me about an insane woman on facebook that has stolen pictures of Linus, calling him Loubie Lou and is making up wacky stories about how “she” is such a celebrity wherever she takes “her”. First I got so angry, but now I just think it’s really sad. Imagine how sad your life must be if you spend your time making up a fake life online using other peoples photos… ;( If anything, this is such a reminder of how fortunate I am – especially now with Linus in my life ❤
The saying “There is a reason for everything” is something I live by, and so maybe this was life’s little way of giving me a reminder for being thankful for what I’ve got and to remind you how fortunate you are as well. It is really important to think about how lucky we are once in a while, or everyday if possible. An instant way of feeling happier anyway :D
Hope you’re all having a lovely Sunday with a big smile on your face! :D xx

First off I just want to say your blog is one of my favourite EVER! Also want to thank you for putting me onto Upcloseandstylish on instagram :o Give Linus a big hug from me :) xxx
Herregud det er så mye rare folk der ute, har selv opplevd at folk har brukt bildene mine på fb profiler osv.. Til syvende og sist er det bare tragisk. Ha en fin dag Celina! :)

Tusen takk! Klem
Lots of hugs for Linus. He is so cute people steal his photos, just a fact of life ;-) Maybe put a watermark on photos to protect them.

Haha, yes.. he is simply too cute :) I don’t want to mark the photos, looks so ugly :/
Agreed. Protect your photos!
Hi Celina (:
I’ve been thinking about something. To me it seems like you have the perfect life. But how have you been able to pay for the amazing apartment, with the stunning view, expensive furniture and such? You must be rich! o:
Hi Sandra, You can read about me on the about page. Happy reading :)
The internet, virtual life, and the way people usually present themselves online is fake, and it does not give the real picture about that people. I think this woman you described is just making fun of it, and I do not think she is crazy at all. Of course, it is very rude and tragic to steal pictures, and present them as yours, but nothing new in this virtual life.
Of course social media profiles and blogs don’t show the full picture, but that isn’t the case in this particular situation. This person is making up stories (she even stole a few things which I have written) and is using other peoples photos which aren’t normal behaviour. Are you feeling a little offended, maybe? ;)
OMG I have just seen the photos,she even copied the post you wrote about dog food!! I think phychiatrists have a name for that! ;)
So good you didn’t post James’ face… Just kidding!
Hah Celina, what I love most about you is that you’re such a positive person :)
I was thinking the same thing AnnaBell!! Best outlook for self is to “hang” with positive people in real life or on-line. Celina, you are a star!
I really like the way you handle this story. I think I just would have been mad, but you’re doing better! :-)
