It's been a relaxing day for me so far. Yesterday was pretty busy so I've enjoyed relaxing with my iPad and spent time finishing a very sad book I've been reading for the past week. Glad to be done with it, even though it was very good. I'm ready for some lighter fare now.0

Pam--Glad you had a relaxing day. Sometimes we can really wrap ourselves up in a good book and let our concerns disappear for a period of time. I like diverse reading material from the light to the intellectual. I'm reading a mystery now that is very good.

Pam - I usually try to avoid books that are too sad. I see/hear enough sad stuff through CROM. I've got two adoption applications to deal with in the next few days. I'm really excited about one of them!0

I feel scattered. The cat group seems to be moving to delphi (which I admit was my suggestion). You guys are here. I like the format of the NS refugees board and see familiar faces. So I have everything bookmarked and hopefully won't lose anyone!0
-
Maryanne--I also signed up for the Refugees board. There are so many options. Right now, I have Refugees and groups here.
I must be exhausted. I remember last reading shortly before Midnight. I didn't get up until 9:30am, I do remember my fur baby trying to get me up at one point but I went back to sleep. I didn't even go to the bathroom. This is definitely not me as 6 hours is the norm and at least one bathroom visit.0 -

I sub tomorrow or Monday. Planning ahead is important, so I already know what I will be having for breakfast and while at school. I'll be having the usual Quaker Weight Control oatmeal with strawberries added. For a mid-morning break, I'll have greek yogurt. Lunch will be a Pure Protein bar and an apple or a banana from the school fruit bar.0

I've been trying unsuccessfully to add a photo to the NS Refugees site. Any ideas or tips? I've tried every option I can find on the site but nothing seems to work.0

I'm taking a short break from packing. It's slow going and boring. we have to decide what items we should leave here for future visits. That means figuring out if we'll need the item up north. I'm sure we'll make the wrong choice on some items but we're trying to cut down on having to bring down items we use frequently. In that case, I'll buy duplicates.
I looked at the refugee site and couldn't log in. I used my NS user name MA_BookBabe and my password and it didn't recognize me. It said not to use special characters so I tried dropping the underscore with the same results. Did any of you have a problem logging in there?0 -
Helene, the only problem I had in joining was that the confirmation email that was sent went to my spam folder so I had to search for it before I could retrieve the activation code and complete the process of joining the site.0

Helene--You will have to register as a new member on the Refugee site before you log in using your user name or email address.
Pam--I'll look at the photo issue on the Refugee site. I thought I had uploaded an image and just checked. The info on how to do it is under the User Guide Link and sub link dealing with avatars:

I get an error message every time I try. I've tried using an existing picture as well as the option to take a picture while in the edit box. No luck either way. I tried to link back to my Facebook account and use my avi picture from that site but it tells me that is not a valid address. I guess I'll have to stick with the generic avi.0
-
Are you wanting to use the pic you are using on this forum?0

Today is the first day of the rest of your life is a phrase often heard. It is the choices we make today that can make a difference. We cannot change the past but today provides us with multiple opportunities to make good choices!0
-
Yes, that is the pic I was trying to use.0
-
I think you should try again. I remember when I uploaded my image, it had one of those options to upload from the computer which is what I used.

I have also done my signature at the Refugee board, but there is a limit to how many characters can go into the signature. It will be a choice of using a ticker or using something personalized. I had to cut my personalized one down.0 -
Hi, everybody. Thank you so much for setting up this group, and providing access to us NS refugees. I just came back to NS in March 2015 after a few years hiatus, so I should introduce myself. Thanks for posting the official announcement. Wow. May 11 - next monday!! I was wondering if they were getting rid of the chat with the dietitian. guess they are! I always found that helpful.
I'll try to be supportive and helpful, like the other lovely people posting useful information. in the meantime, i have been copying some really great posts from the BB.
BTW, my name is Susan. sneuffer330 is the username i ended up with on MFP.
Talk to you soon. Sending love and support to you all!!0 -
I couldn't figure it out either. Every photo I tried, including the one I'm using here gave me the message the file was too big. I ended up customizing the default avatar so now I look like a cartoon character. LOL. I'll stick with that until someone can tell us how to get a real photo in there.I've been trying unsuccessfully to add a photo to the NS Refugees site. Any ideas or tips? I've tried every option I can find on the site but nothing seems to work.

I ended up registering as a new person so I used Helene610 just like here. I guess new site/new name can work.Helene, the only problem I had in joining was that the confirmation email that was sent went to my spam folder so I had to search for it before I could retrieve the activation code and complete the process of joining the site.

I guess I was lucky in uploading my picture to the refugee site. I just went by the instructions in the link I gave earlier. If you have a pic you prefer to use and want it resized to be smaller so the amount of bytes used is not too much, I will do it for you.0
