Pie, I followed them to the letter and still can not successfully change my avatar. I'm not sure what else to do. It's so frustrating.

Good morning Nesters

Real quick I need to answer a few of your questions Lav. Well at first she only worked nights. Now she picked up a daytime gig so she writes out their homework and they do it with grandma. I guess she checks it when she gets home. Here is one example of whats upsetting me with this. When its my day to pick them up ( technically supposed to be at 5pm ) I normally get done with what I have to do around 1pm..I called to see If I could come get them early ( In the summer it was as early as 10-11am ). She said to wait an hour so she could check their homework first. Ok..well..she gives them an entire day off when she wants/needs to. Like this past Friday they had no school so she could get ready for this wedding. This just does not seem entirely fair IMO.

I think you were talking about C-Dev right? I never heard from him after his announcement of him getting married. I sure hope that he is happy and keeping AF though.

Well me waterbed is now roasty toasty . This is the first time I have slept in a "bed" in years. Ive been sleeping on the couch or on an air mattress for all this time ( beds make my back hurt ). Im loving it..this winter is going to be much better I can feel it.

TJ- Great work on your 1 year AF ! Its almost surreal isnt it.

LB- I very much need to quit smoking too. One problem is Im gonna need to Want to quit. Years back I was taking a walk and Bam!..just clicked that I no longer wanted to smoke. I crushed up a full pack and quit right there. Just putting out the need to quit and hoping the Click will happen soon. Best of strength to you..oh and I think it was Lav that mentioned a support forum like this one for smokers. I looked at one site and It seems to be helping a lot of peeps..

Hyper- You know..the same thing happens im sure to all of us. I used to drink heavy whenever I did a full spray on a boat ( flush the bad toxins out with more toxic stuff lol ). My last spray job I cleaned my gun and the automatic thought of having a sixer passed through my head. It only lasted a moment before my mind blew it out of the water...but it still there. I imagine that im going to have to live with it for years. I dont dream about beer anymore though whoohoo.

I Really..REALLY miss the "Multi-Quote" button . I used that to keep track of all the post I wanted to comment on. I realize that using the comment button would suffice..but Im not sure how I feel about that function yet. Sure its kinda cool and all..but it seems to make you back track to the post to see if the conversation continued. The OP would also have to keep watch over his/her posts.. Hmm.. Bring back MQ Pleease..

There was more to this post but another long day awaits. Im trying to wrap up 3 boats before the weekend so I have some Me-Time.

Oh oh..there was one more thing Im want to suggest to the New AFers in here. Accomplish something. get a hair cut..keep the dishes clean..go change your wasted muffler on your car lol. Keep things fresh and orderly. I have found for me at least that keeping my environment orderly ( and yes replacing even a muffler ) helps me feel 'on top of things' sorta speak. Dont let things that you need to do build up or you might start to stress out..and stress is a major trigger. So lets see those Better Homes and Gardens posts roll in

Be strong and keep on truckin' !

You can multi-quote here. Look up at the top of the posts on the page. There is a gray bar that runs across the top of the page. On the left side it says, "Post Reply." As you're reading along and see a post that you want to reply to, click Quote in that post. If you look up at the Post Reply button in that gray bar it will now say, "Post Reply (1)." When you click a second post that you want to reply to it will say, "Post Reply (2)," and so on. Once you get ready to answer all of the posts that you clicked on, go to the top of the page and click on that Post Reply button. It will then put all of the posts you want to quote in the reply box at the bottom of the page and you can answer them there.

Happy Hump day to all
Looks like a lot of rain is on the way tonight, oh well.
Still no bitch bars here :H

Oen, hang in there. A few days of discomfort is a small price to pay for the wonderful & free life just ahead

Greetings Pav, Kensho, Pepper & Jane & everyone!

Have a great AF day one & all!

Lav

Lav if you hover your cursor over where your bitch bars should be, you'll see a special message just for you.

Gambler, I was JUST getting the multi-quote thing when it was removed.....(yeah, I'll use THAT as my excuse!)
I remember when you first quit, you had the cleanest house in town!! But you are so right, having the OUTSIDE in order helps you sort better on the inside!
Sounds like your ex deserves Bi*ch Bars of her own. I hate that she is so controlling like that. Where's the spirit of cooperation? Shame.

Thank you for listening, Elo!! Look at that tiny print in your signature line, I had to pull out the magnifying glass (Sherlock Holmes Style)! Yikes, I'm becoming my own Grand Mother!!!
