Joe is here! I've been extremely busy. For some unknown reason I took a full time job in a city 30 miles away and so between the drive back and forth and the 8 hr day, that's taking up almost 10 hrs of my day... then throw in a house I inherited (?) .... not sure if I'm questioning the inheritance of the fact that I called it a house! It's an old farm house on 2 acres that has been neglected for the past 20 years... that part of the story is too long to get into, but it's the house I grew up in, and me and my brother are trying to get it in a livable condition so we can sell it and not be embarrassed by it. It needs Everything! So I've been putting about 4 hrs a day there plus any time on weekends (usually 10 or so hrs a day... I really need to take a break... lol Last night my beagle (Baileigh) had what the Vet described as similar to a stroke and her right side doesn't work so well now... she struggles to even walk , and can only go a few steps before she falls over. :( She is 14 and already has had some health issues ( blood transfusion 6 years ago and an ACL surgery 3 years ago, so I am afraid her time is severely limited. Anyhow.... life is going on, and all the girls/ granddaughters are doing great... I'm still smoke free and loving life!

Congrats Bakon! If I hadn't seen your post on good ole buddybook, I wouldn't have realized it was your anniversary .... I need to slow down and check in once in awhile. Great job ....you're one of the best here for paying it forward! i wouldn't be at this site of it wasn't for you and a few others... Congrats!!

Happy 4th anniversary, Doreen !!! Above all others here, you are one who truely inspires. No only among us who post, but I am confident you have saved the health of countless who are lurking in the shadows. Your words speak volumes !!! Congrats on your day! You deserve an extra special reward today

Yep...checking in!

I haven't done it from my phone (iPhone)... and I'm sure it may be a little different than from a PC. I can't post pics with my phone.... But, to post a profile pic (from the PC) I still use photobucket. It was quite awhile since I last done one, and when Marti asked me to help with hers, I struggled at first. If I remember correctly, I used photobucket because it would automatically resize the pic so it was "small" enough to use...this wasn't the case the last time. Everything else remained the same, but I had to resize it before I uploaded it to photobucket and use the link to post it here. I used the link that had (img) in the link and copied it and pasted it in the spot on the profile page where you make changes.you will know right away if it works....

Something touched me deep inside.............

Thanks ladies!

-1 Good morning all.
