@PackerFanInGB Hey, hubby and I were shopping at Woodman's on Tues. as well! Wouldn't it be funny if we were there at the same time? (We were there around 11:30-12:30.) Hope you and Tim feel better soon! Recap 4/2 W ~ We had snow overnight but now turned to rain, with maybe thunderstorms later. Oooh boy. ~ Yay, rain ended…

@pridesabtch Congrats on your w-i, you should feel good about that. My eyes popped when you said you don't eat much until evening… that would kill me. I've been a 3-meals a day person since I was a young kid, or my energy is non-existent and I'm cranky, plus snacks if my activity level is up. Recap 4/1 T ~ Noticed my…

Recap 3/28 F ~ Dreary day, showers possible. Poor doggo, we had strong winds and thunderstorms at bedtime & she was quite scared. Too bad her thunder shirt doesn't help.

Tree branches are totally coated with snow that froze overnight, very pretty, but hubby and I are over the snow. Our neighbor cleared the snowplow ridge at the end of our driveway with his snowblower; we'll let the rest melt as temps…

To all my JFTers, new photo with my profile as of yesterday, in an effort to stem the unwanted "friend" requests. Still a female in my pic, just not human. Happy dog LOL (she was waiting for a treat at the vet's office). While I was trying to remember how to change my profile pic yesterday, I found a new option for the…

@Bex953172 Not to be inappropriate but really!?!?! Had me giggling though @TerriRichardson112 Thanks for the suggestion! After a few struggles to remember how I've changed my profile pic (at least 2 years ago), photo now changed. Still a female, just not human. Happy dog LOL

@AnnPT77 Thank you so much for your answer! I was overthinking and accessing my profile from other ways. Totally forgot to look at the My Home options. Duh! ETA: Photo now changed! Yay.

Dog & Kitty both happy I'm home. Happy me. JFT 3/22 Sat. ~ Temp winterlike again at 31F but mostly sunny and barely any wind = YAY Make turkey ole…

@angf0679 Even though I'm posting to practically strangers, I love when I post updates that I did my "stuff". Just one of the reasons I love my JFTers! I'm leaving noon Thurs for an overnight visit to my folks, and have an OT appt in the morning, so posting tonight for tomorrow… Recap 3/19 W ~ Very crap weather today… high…

A question for anyone who wants to reply: Are you getting lots of "friend" requests on MFP from strange men? Not sure why, but I seem to be getting them frequently. I just decline but what a pain. Recap 3/18 T ~ Another windy day. Just not wanting to go for long walk with dog. Hubby took her around the neighborhood…

Right now I'm so frustrated with various tech issues. Not the reason I didn't post yesterday, it's just today's issue. Argh! JFT 3/18 T ~ Another windy day. Just not wanting to go for long walk with dog. Hubby took her around the neighborhood instead. Good for hubby & dog. Make baked ziti for supper & freeze remaining…

@Bex953172 Same issues for me. MFP never told anyone (that I know of) that our link to Bookmarks would be different. Another pain in the *kitten* change. Through some trial and error, the way @pridesabtch described works for me. Recap 3/15 Sat. ~ Wind advisory all day, with gusts up to 50 mph, so dog is nervous. Occasional rain…

Recap 3/14 F ~ Had rain & thunder early this morning. Dog is scared, so waiting on weather to decide if we'll walk later. ~ Thankfully weather greatly improved in afternoon.

Thank you @more_freggies76 @littleblackskirt @itladyee @Bex953172 for responding about the hyperlink. I'm not technically gifted, so when stuff changes, I need very specific explanations sometimes. Feedback is vital to me. Thanks again! These format updates are so annoying. Didn't log or post yesterday, as hubby & I had…

(Spoiler) I have to ask a favor from my JFTers. Trying to figure out this hyperlink stuff in the new format. Can anyone open my linked text in the spoiler above? Or is it protected?

Recap Sunday 3/9 ~ Windy again but at least temps are warming up & remaining snow is melting. Choir sings 7:45 & 9:00 Call to Worship / choir arrival 7:20 on morning we lose an hour of sleep & sad me. Choir director was surprised how few people were in church for first service, not me. I yawned through the entire service.…
