HI Sharon! I napped from 4:30 to 8:30 tonight so I'll be up late. EVERYONE in the house is up except for dh. Two of the boys have just started a movie and one just walked in the door from some sort of photo shoot. I think I'm going to do some dusting.

Sharon, I've started using the e-mail notices and really like them. Try changing your selection in "My Profile" to once per thread intead of every message. You won't get as many e-mails and the ones you DO get will direct you to where you last left off reading, regardless of whether you read there today or last week.

Thanks Maggie. After all the mess tonight in my email, first thing I did was come and change the profile setting.
Most of what I got today didn't have the actual message in it. Just the link. Yesterday and before, I could just sit in my email and read all the messages. That seemed silly though because they would all be unread here when I came back to the threads.

Yeah, Sharon. I think Fritz has had the message removed from the e-mails. I'm wondering why.
Flintejae, the problem with doing that is this. If I don't read all the threads in My Forums that have new messages in them before I leave CW for that session, when I return, those unread threads are marked as read. That's frustrating. Using the e-mail notifiers helps me find where I left off regardless of when I last read the thread.
And I see that Christine wrote what I just wrote and deleted. No point in saying it twice. Do what Christine says, Sharon.

The only way to auto-subscribe is to get notified of e-mail. That shouldn't be the case. Hopefully I misunderstood Fritz.
I don't think you misunderstood. This subs thing is a real pain. I miss the way we had it before. I do leave the list up and open in a new window, so it is less painful, but still, it isn't ideal. I know whining won't bring them back, but I sure do miss it.

I'm proud of you too! Let us know when you get the appointment, ok?
I may finally get my windstar back. I love that van. It broke down a year ago May, and he is finally suppose to get it put together today. I sincerely hope so.
I posted this in kimmy's and ellie's threads, but I am working on my sig, so I am posting it here too...
If anyone wants to help me with my sig, I'd greatly appreciate it. I am not sure what fonts show up for most people. Would anyone go check out my tests HERE, and let me know? Thank you!

Kath, I CAN see the lucida handwriting in your sig right now. I DON't see the other ones but don't understand why I don't see comic sans ms as I know I have that font on my computer. *shrug*
Christine, thanks for the info on the MY SUBSCRIPTIONS, I am going to experiment. I definitely want to auto subscribe with a post in a thread. That's what I am going to experiment with now.

Hi everyone! :D
This is about the only thread I follow, so I don't mind the e-mail notifications. :D
Well, today I learned an important lesson about keeping things clean...
J and Nicky decided to take five days off. They left Thursday, so I assumed they would be back Monday.
Yesterday I went to work, went to the chiropractor, and then came home. Matt came over and I cooked us dinner. And while I cooked he worked on my truck (put more oil in it <I have a leak> and changed the burned out tail light). After we ate dinner I went and sat down because I was sore from my Chiro visit. I started baking cookies, but after I started I discovered we had no butter. And then after we got some of that, I then discovered we had no eggs.
Then later that night we watched TV and then turned on a movie. Did very little cleaning up of the dinner mess (only put perishable things in fridge) or the half-made cookie batter. Both of us are messy-natured and don't think about such things.
This morning I get up. Lay in bed for a while. Do a lesson for the group Bible study I am in. Play on the computer for a while. I look at the mess and think, "I'll deal with it later." I go out to the bank and to rent some girlie movies (have house to myself, can watch them without grief from J) and got some Starbucks. I came back and.... J's and Nicky's truck with the camper is parked in the driveway 
I came in and... they weren't in the house. I look out and see their other vehicle is gone. The mail pile for them was moved, and the blinds are opened more than they were when I left (to cater to the birds  ), so it was odvious they had been inside.
I felt soooooooooooooooo bad. I should so not be keeping a house that is not my own and that I have the privledge of staying in that messy. Especially since I don't have domain of the kitchen (my room is another story). I definitely learned today that cleaning shouldn't wait, especially if you don't have a date when the people you stay with are returning.
I did go out and tell J. that I was sorry. He said it was a good thing I got back and cleaned it up before they got back home the second time. Nicky is a definite clean freak, and J said she definitely wasn't too thrilled.
