<p>Another new thing in my computer world. groan.
Ok where is the spiked wheel? I don’t see it and does anyone know how to get the other color back? So dislike light blue. Will our red dots show up again?</p>
<p>I am trying to find the spiked wheel and thus the edit button(?). OK–found it!
Where are the “save draft” posts if you do not post your comment?</p>
<p>So where’s this “edit” button? The only spiked wheel thing I see is up at the very top, for Account Options. Okay – I guess it’s only active for 1 hour, which is why I couldn’t see it before.</p>
<p>Hello. Just stopped by to see the new cc digs 
text is tiny on the iPad and I don’t like tapa talk but oh well, whatever.</p>
<p>I’d be playing the part of a cranky person at the moment for a number of reasons, least of which here I am, home alone again, with cabin fever, door trim to stain, concrete to clean and prep for vinyl base cove and I am both sick of it and bemused as to why mch thinks its somehow ok to be at a brewery with a buddy this aft. I have all kinds of pals I could go play with, but you see there is this thing called a MOVE coming up and his thing called FINISH the STUDIO getting in the way of my fun. Hi ho.</p>
<p>Wow… it took quite the effort to find this thread!! Thankfully, I had it bookmarked. Hope we don’t have to drive the bus around to try to find everyone!</p>
<p>NMN - I am green green with envy for your solo time - especially with it being all shiny and new AND with a soaking tub!</p>
<p>KMC - I so wish I could fairy dust in your skill set as I think I would be far more efficient with time with so many little fixes and cleaning chores. Speaking of which, today I cleaned the fireplace. I had swept it etc, but then the realtor suggested we lose the standing screen as it hid the limestone surround. Anyway, overall it is improved but truth is the interior (or at least the back) should really be painted black since it is what it is.</p>
<p>So S thinks he did well on the MCAT but in the continuing saga of what is this week, the confirmation print out at the end of the exam wouldn’t print! He was there for an hour while they tried to figure out why it wouldn’t. Finally gave him a card with a phone number on it and tried telling him if he doesn’t get his scores in 30 days to follow up. Umm… he said, he’ll follow up ASAP. The good news is that they know he sent his test for scoring because had he voided the test - even in error- he woudn’t have been able to do the trial section (which are sample questions for the new exam in 2015 and they give you a $30 gift card from Amazon for doing it. SYou can only participate if you submit your original test for scoring (in other words, if you scrapped your test, you’re done and no $30 for you). Anyway…. so, now he has to follow up but “heard” it shouldn’t be an issue. And all I can do is hope to the good Lord above he doesn’t have to retake it for any reason! </p>
<p>PS… I was going to try to digitally alter a pic and use it… then came across this pic of a dress fabric and thought, why the heck not! Anyway… While I don’t need a face at all, if they’re going to make the screen names so small, Ill appreciate the visual. As for super small type, try (double clicking/tapping etc and even on an iPad or iPhone, the thread should read as wide as the screen).</p>
<p>Thanks, Moda, that’s better so long as I swipe sideways to see whose comment it is
My fingers are crossed for your s on the mcats!</p>
<p>I have a second round of staining and sanding the finish trim today plus other nonsense, but have decided somewhere in there I am going to escape for a snowshoe trek at the conservation area by hook or by crook.</p>
<p>To manage my cranky mode yesterday I made h make dinner last night when he finally got home since I was head-to-toe stain and varnish and trying to keep a wet edge. Remind me not to do that again. There is a reason I cook and it has nothing to do with being a 50s wife :)</p>
<p>Ah, you deserved a delicious meal last nigh kmc. With wine and flowers! At least he could have brought you some good pub food.
No news here, was waiting to here about Mod’s S and now am going to wait for his call to confirm and then his scores. Know he did well but want to know he is relieved. When D took hers she came home distressed but she did not void them and it all came out ok.
D is a mess. She cannot sleep, feels that this is just not right (break up) and feels powerless. Her GF told her she could always fly out to see him and could even transfer to be near him. I asked D what she thought she would have…a boyfriend who hasn’t committed. arrgh.
Hopefully we will talk after her test on Monday and before her therapy appt on Tues. I need to sound more supportive because my impatience that she find some inner strength is showing.</p>
<p>hmm–unless someone can explain away the idea that anyone can post my message on their face
book although I am not on face book–well sadly, I will barely be here and monitor my words. I have long regretted that I identified myself with my state but from what I am reading it seems as if there is no longer even the veil of privacy. </p>
<p>Yeah, sadly, I have to say I’m going to agree with you. I didn’t notice the FB button earlier. So If someone poss your comment would you even be notified? A lot of the reason I even came to this site in the first place was so I didn’t have to share the specifics. Loses that if anyone can just post your posts.</p>
<p>Okay, this is going to take quite a bit of getting used to. I am too busy today to explore the ins and outs, but just wanted to log on to hear about how the MCAT went since my CC iphone app didn’t work. (I had to make my password longer, so maybe it will work now.)</p>
<p>Anyway, if someone has time on their hands today, can they read up on the Facebook part and determine whether our privacy on this thread just went away?</p>
<p>As an experiment, I just clicked on the facebook icon on Moda’s last post, and it would have totally let me share her post on facebook. Don’t worry, Moda, I cancelled and didn’t share. This feature is VERY worrisome.</p>
<p>But in good news… I LOVE your pic Missy!!! If you could stick a brief case under her arm, it’d be all you!</p>
<p>OK, I’m going to operate under the theory that the folks in charge don’t WANT parents particularly hanging around any longer, or that they’re clueless about privacy. Suggest that anything you wouldn’t want published on the front page of your hometown newspaper not be put here. </p>
<p>I wonder if the mods will allow prior posts to be deleted now that they’ve unleashed the facebook idiocy? I’m irked that they seem to have undermined historical privacy without giving us a chance to opt out. </p>
<p>The '14 Facebook page seems relatively safer.</p>
<p>This is what CC has posted about the FB connection:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>It still doesn’t comfort me - doesn’t prevent anyone else from sharing anything.</p>
<p>Exactly, c_q. I know that I can choose not to share my posts or your posts on FB. But I can’t block you or anyone else from sharing mine. Doesn’t give me any comfort!</p>
<p>Thanks c_q–But the problem seems that some of our posts contain “personal information” that we might not want someone to post on their FB and share with people we do even know about.
Why in the world would it not be an option to have your posts shared or not shared?
The dang emoticon is always in my way I the right hand corner.</p>
<p>This Facebook sharing really bothers me to. I am on Facebook, and a recent member of this Facebook group–but I almost never actually post anything on Facebook itself. I PM the people I actually want to share anything with, or post in our private FB page.</p>
<p>I think CC should modify the feature so that members can choose an option to permit their posts to be shared or not.</p>
<p>I wonder if this issue has been brought up in the “issues” forum.</p>
<p>Saw you already asked missy! Thank you!</p>
