SHEs Organized

Lots to celebrate!

Happy Birthday to Mr. Dee!

Happy Canada Day!

Happy Anniversary to Nancy and Mr. Nancy!

I pulled some towels from the garage that dd brought home when she moved out of apartment at school and they are in the washer going through a heavy duty washing. I wonder what she's using for towels now?

This round:
-text dniece re timing of food
-shape challah to rise
-10 pieces of paper
-make the bed
-brush and floss

When dd gets home I hope to have her try to save any photos from the old site. When she has time. She should be back tonight after all. I was right to begin with. They had their awards ceremony this morning and then it will be mass exodus for home sweet home for a good share of them. There were over 6,800 members/teachers/chaperones from TSA at the Gaylord Hotel in National Harbor -just outside D.C. Know dBailey will be very glad to have her back 'home'. Found out last night that dcampowner has a refund for her. Not realizing she had a membership he had charged her as dh's dd -which was a larger rate per night. Evidently dd never noticed.

One of dd's students placed in the top 10 in the U.S. in his category. Have a feeling I know who it is. They all are to be proud of -they had 11 students there -all middle schoolers.

Need to rustle up something for lunch. Think we'll order pizza and wings for a b'day dinner. Too hot to cook anyway.

Gaylord Hotel in National Harbor

Dee, the convention I went to a couple of years ago was at that hotel! Huge facility!

Hello everyone. I had a bit of a problem getting in. My computer has developed such a rut in it's "road" to the old site it couldn't get onto the new road here! I guess I should clear my history, that might help, though that is the way I get to my county sites (easier than using bookmarks since I'm there so often). Anyway, here I am.

Question for those smarter than me: which one of the board preferences is the closest to the purple one I was using last time? I don't remember what that was called. The thing I liked about that the most was that it told me which threads I had read completely and which I needed to read the last posts before going to the next topic. Does one of the preferences have this feature?

I did read Nancy's post about wanting the "coffee cup" I used. I notice your cheery face is once again there - but if you decide you still want it and I get a few minutes to put something else you are welcome to it. Let me know.

Lady M, maybe things are looking up with all the calls? We can hope that's so.

Yesterday was church and I was quite busy with communion. Many were away and our trays must be set up / emptied / redone / washed / reloaded with empty cups / put in their flannel pockets and stored away for 4 services. After the last service there were only 3 of us left doing it. I went out and got the teenagers to gather up all the empty cups to throw away. I'm still struggling with low energy so needed a big nap after all that.

Today I had to go pick up dump truck, get it in 4-wheel drive and get it out of a ditch where it was parked, and take to another jobsite where that crew unloaded big pipe on top. Then I had to do it all in reverse so I could get my car and go home. I have to think there are real reasons I have so much anxiety. Sometimes I think it would not be normal to do some of this stuff with no worries at all.

This is probably too long. I can't tell yet, with this nice big screen I have now the posting square is huge.
I better get to work around here. I haven't closed out the last month yet.

Harmony: I'm using SocialPhobia and it is instinctively close to the old GlossyPurple. When I was looking for styles to load, I could only find GlossyBlack, the rest don't seem to be available.

I've re-opened the old boards hopefully in read-only mode (I tested it using the permissions of a registered user and a member and both seemed to be alright but I might have missed something. You should be able to go get your photos now (and avatars too.)

For any photo, simply right click on it and 'save image as' and it will be loaded on to your computer. Note where you put it and you can then put the photo back into the thread on this board.

The old boards will be there for sure until July 4. After that we have up to 14 days before they will be removed for the internet.

Not sure what to do about the photos I've posted. Most aren't worth saving and reposting, just the ones of SHE get-togethers. I have them all on my computer, so I'll save them and perhaps put them up in a dedicated thread.

I spent some time on the balcony, watching the Snowbirds (Canada's precision flying team). Will post pictures soon.
