Yo peeps! It's Monday!
Deb I need a drink to think about please So I just had an hour phone call with someone from the company I am working for - the other contract trainer isn't working out. Gulp. Fortunately the feedback for me is 'awesome' I am fairly maxed out with hours though so I fear what this will...

Sunny Saturday!
I am alive! I am alive! sigh - long, long days but all is good Jano I am so glad Willa is loving life the way she is - as an ex-music teacher I will suggest that if she takes drum lessons, make sure they teach her to READ music. Very often they teach rhythms/rudiments and the kid never learns to...

Happy 8th Birthday Bugsy!!!
Good gracious time is flying by - my crazy, sweet, handsome and comedic mongrel is 8 today. He remains completely nuts and despite his orthopedic issues not much has really changed with his energy and for that I feel lucky. The changes I see are that he will allow you to pet him a bit more often...

Thursday Thots (090513)
Sorry I've been so "gone" this week -- just intensely busy at work. Even as much as *I* normally type I went home with a stiff neck/shoulder and my hand joints protesting from all the mouse stuff. *rolling eyes* -- I'll stop complaining and be thankful for "job security"?...

Wed Chat - Sept 4, 2013
Gosh, things keep changing on the forum. I'm guessing they are meant to be improvements, and they probably are, but good golly, some of us don't do well with change! I'd say it's confusing to us old folks, but, seems to be confusing to more than those of us who are getting older! DS...

How-To for Pic Posting
I know how much we like pics here, so I thought an "illustrated" how-to might help. So unless (until?) it gets changed, here's how you can add pics: 1st thing, you have to be using the Rich Formatting text box, not just the Join the Conversation field. The Rich Formatting field looks...

Back to school Tuesday 9-3-13

My pup was running in the house today when he let out a cry. After further inspection I noticed that on one of his from paws the nail was splitting from the quick and not lining up with the keratin .So when there is any presser pushing the quick into the keratin he cries. I'm going to call the vet...

Sunny Sunday chat
Still more like a southern summer here with high humidity, but at least the sun is shining today. Late yesterday I sent the boss a long email since he had not yet accepted that I am leaving. Thankfully he's now accepted the "loss" of me, and he's being cool about it. Gosh, I only...

Saturday chat
Not so sure this will work, but will give it a try. Gotta say this new format is confusing as heck. And S L O W, but it's still Beta? I'm not exactly a 'puter pro, but I'm thinking that means just a test version? Yesterday was my last day with the Beacon. Thurs was supposed to have...

Any body home???
I am old and irritable. My thought processes are best described as "concrete sequential". Change is not good. But I will with hold judgement until I have tried the new format a bit. So far, so good.

Moaning Monday - August 26
Hello Everyone, I assume that I am starting this thread because a) Karen is ultra busy and b)the new format is pushing people away or causing absence. So, here I am starting a thread that may already exist but I can't find it. Today sucks at work. Server issues are getting everyone frustrated...
