When all else fails!

I have BM (and the skids) blocked on Facebook, she is blocked from me and DH's email accounts, DH just blocked her number from his cell phone, and I changed my home phone number, unlisted it, and blocked it so that anytime DH calls the skids, they can't get the number and give it to BM. You'd think I'd covered all my bases, right? No - now BM just posts on my Pinterest account and has one of her nasty friends "following" me. I go back and forth on deleting the account, but I have tons of neat ideas pinned on there (like 900 of them) and all my friends are on there with me. I decided just to ignore her, but its hard to see the nasty things she posts about me and DH and not respond. Which is exactly what she wants. And when I do, she says I am "stalking" her - after she goes thorugh all 900 of my pins, picks out anything she doesn't like and tells me to take it down or she'll print it and take it to court, lol. God I hate her - just drop dead already!

Ugh! I might stalk BM a bit online (I check her Facebook account about once every month or so because she is not allowed contact with her kids and she tends to post crazy crap about wanting them to call her as soon as they turn 18, the part that makes it even more sad is they she can't remember how old they are or when their birthdays are). I'm really just checking her friend list to make sure there is no overlap between any of our friends and hers.

I cannot imagine actually posting anything to her or friending her, yuck. Can you not block her on Pinterest? Maybe file complaints about her? I'm not on it so I'm not sure how it works.

I totally get what you are doing - gotta do a check in. Pinterest is supposed to be a totally public craft, DIY, recipe type site so there is no way to keep anyone from following you or block them, unfortunately. I have tons of great recipes and home improvement ideas pinned, but wierdos like BM use it as an online therapy session. She has found all the "mean" pins to put up on her site and knows its the one way to communicate with us. Its just frustrating.

Can you create a new pinterest account and then follow yourself from the old one?

That's what I was thinking. and just add all your previous pins to your new account

Speak? No, everything is a scream fest and usually involves calling me the "c" word somehow. Thats why it took DH so long to block her from exting and calling on his cell phone. He wanted to give her a way to contact him about the kids, but she never did. We literally would groan every time the phone rang or beeeped thinking it was her again with another crazy text or message. I finally got DH to realize that the kids (who are all adults or teens) could reach us in an emergency.
