^^ MELTING on Tuesday! ^^

Good Morning!

Just getting us started...I was doing the weight work Biceps/Triceps from 4DS when a mouse ran across the basement floor...UUUUGGGGg!!! I promtly put everything away and went upstairs... DH has since put a few traps down there... sigh.. it;s always something!

BB in a bit

I hate this forum! I tried editing my post again and it doesn't work.....also hate that the most recent posts don;t go to the top!

Do you think they will change that if we write to them?

Deb
 
Morning Deb. I can't believe you have mice with the two dogs. Of course, we periodically get them too, and we have two cats. I'm hopeful about the forums. Lainie seems sold, so I think there may be hope for the rest of us.

Anyone have idea what the difference is between a quick relay and just a reply? This is a quick one? Guess I'll post it and see what happens....
 
Well, I see the quick reply doesn't give you a preview button, something near and dear to my heart.

Another "does anyone (Lainie?) know" question - What does the go advance button on the quick reply do?

OK, I gotta get to work. There will be a work out this evening, since I've missed two days in a row. I'm afraid early August is going to be hit or miss too. We go to the shore the first week, then Bible school after work the next week. I should all ready to gear things up and start melting my mid-August. But I digress - off to work. Taa till later. I hope to be a bit more personal today! MWAH!
 
Morning all~

I'm alive and I hate that I had to go to page 3 to find this post. Not thrilled with this new set-up.

I'll try to get back later.
 
Hi, everyone,
I'm up a bit early (for me) to see DH off to the airport; he's going up to Dallas and back today. I probably won't be back here b/c my DDs and I have a volunteer commitment ALL day -- we won't get home until around 10:00. I really wish I hadn't agreed to do it.

I love everyone's new avatars!

I'm about to do iClimb 8 (I think) on my elliptical.

Deb -- ugh on the mice!!!! I would still be screaming (in a very high pitched girly scream.

Robin -- have a good day at workout. I'm looking forward to meeting you on Friday! I believe that "Go Advance" will take you and the post you are working on to the same advanced editing box that you get if you initially choose Post Reply. Make sense?

Shelley -- I'm glad to see you! How are you, chica?

Hello to all who follow! Love you all -- miss the intimacy of the old forums!
 
Okay, I figured out how to get the most recent threads to show first. Go to the bottom of the thread listing and it has a place to show the threads in either ascending or descending order. Choose Descending instead of ascending and it should work.
 
what goes here?

Hi , I'm back,

Sorry for being such a whiner! I miss my smiles, I miss the posts going to the top, I agree with Shelly, why do we have to go to page 436 to find our post? I found you can sort in descending order, but new posts still don;t bring the thread to the top, not even sure what does! In order to read the thread without scrolling back and forth, you have to use the "thread" drop down and have it view in "printable" view. Anyway, I will just have to get used to it. I haven;t even tried to do an avatar...not sure how.

Robin:
See above on how you make it so you don;t have to scroll....it drove me nuts too! The only way to do personals ( at least for me!) is to have 2 internet sessions open at the same time and go back and forth between them, one you are just viewing, and the other that you are posting on.. hope that makes sense!

BG:
No men chatting about destiny on any of my I-Treads thank God! Yeah, why do we have to "list" our friends? Break friendship? how old are we anyway?

Allison:
Limit on smilies?? I can't even find them! and no, we all are feeling a bit lost here, it's like moving to a new neighborhood, and trying to feel like home..at least we are all still here! Sorry about your parents and the 35th anniversary..it's sad and I am sending you ((HUGS))..YOU ARE NOT FAT!

Kara:
What do you mean everywhere we go is tracked??




Lainie:
I am sending you good (VIBES) that you and DH take that romantic trip!

Tneah:
Yeah Georgie is so cute! I wish I could see him doing these tricks in person!

Leanne:
Thanks for the tips on the smilies etc... when you say set up time zone in your control panel, you mean the one on my computer, not something in this site correct? I know you can set it on this site in the Profile thing, but it never seems to stay where I put it!

Shannon:
I'm with you on the changes here... too much to get used to!

Jennifer:
Good to "see" you again girl!

Well, gotta go to work....hope to bb later to read what has gone on here all day.. I hope I can make some adjustments in the profile thing to make this easier!

Deb
 
Kristi, I'm looking forward to Friday too. I wish, wish, wish Shelley was going to be there though. I'm not sure I understand the explanation about the Advance button, so I may just have to try it. Have fun with your volunteer chores today. I admire all volunteering type people. Someday, when I retire, I've dreamed about doing some volunteering, but not here at the hospital. LOL. I've always wanted to do Red Cross work.

Shelley, hugs and kisses and more hugs and more kisses. I'm sure, in time, the bugs will go scurrying and the new forums will be just like home sweet home.
 
Goooooood morning!

I'm sleepy today. Shocker, I know. Once again, I couldn't get my behind out of bed this morning to work out. Ugh. Guess I'll have to do it tonight.

SHELLEY!!! How are you, pumpkin face!?!?! I missed you. Not to (once again) rub it in (not that I mean to at all) but I still can't get over how depressed I am that you're not coming to the RT. I almost feel like a big part of my going is pointless now. Man, I wish you could make it.
How are you doing? How's your sister? Talk to me, sugar. :)

Robin---I'm glad your team won last night! I just read last night's posts and can't believe you were on here so late, missy! 10:19pm?!?!?! Wow. :p

So, I still can't figure out how to get the checkin threads to sort newest to oldest. It's so annoying having to search for our thread. :mad: Yo, SNM, what's the dealio?

Tneah--sorry your Slim Series workout was craptastic. You're pretty advanced and more hardcore (whoa, that sounds dirty...;)) than those workouts. I'm honestly not surprised that they didn't float your boat. (HAHA!! you live on a boat! I totally didn't even plan on that pun! I'm a genius!!)

Lainie--oh wise website woman. Please enlighten us on how to make the checkins appear newest to oldest. I've gotten pretty much everything else sorted out. Nice workout yesterday by the way. I never complimented you on that. Impressive. I can't believe how kick-butt your workouts are lately!!!!

Sorry I don't have more time. I am thinking about each and everyone one of you, though--I promise! I'll try and BBL. Where's the kissy smilie when ya need it????.....

ETA: wow, I just got yelled at by the forum for using more than 4 smilies. That's bulls**t. They better fix that. I really, really like my smilies.
 
Huh. I had Cathe minimized on my computer while I was working and it logged me out. Another bug? I'm also thinking the newest posts not being on the top of the forum is a bug that will get fixed.

Allison, yeah, hey, I was a partee animal last night. I went to bed about 10:30 and read until 11:00. I feel pretty good today though. At least when I went to sleep, I slept pretty much through the night. Except for the nightmare I had about DD killing me in a drunk driving car crash. That must have stemmed from her being 21 and deciding she likes beer. I know what you mean about the pointlessness of a RT without Shelley.:(

Deb, thanks for the tip on making the forum "printable" for easier reading. But then you have to go back to the regular form to reply! I don't have the size problem at home - only here at work.

What the heck does "parse links in text" mean? See Miscellaneous Options below. By the by, I rated this thread Excellent!
 
Hello Kittens -

Sounds like everyone is a little irritated this morning. Me too. My DD is sick, so I stayed home, which means I got to sleep in, but that also means I have not worked out yet. It really bugs me when I don't work out right away in the morning. It kind of wrecks my whole day. It just does not feel right.

So maybe today I will play around with this forum stuff and see if I can figure out some things. The only way I can do things with the nutrition stuff is if I am using Firefox and not Safari, which really irritates me because I prefer to use Safari.

Anyway, I'm irritated.

bbl kittens
 
Hey again~

I'm so sorry that I disappointed you RTers and pre-RTers. That wasn't my intention, of course... but still.... sorry.

I didn't get up this morning. Maybe I should just give up trying. Anyway, I haven't taken a rest day in 14 days, so maybe I ought to take one today, except that I'm in massive binge mode (I won't even tell you what I ate last night...).

So, I'll either do nothing or run five miles tonight. I think the five miles might make me feel better. You never know.
 
Hey Melters!

Just thought I'd pop in and wave hi to everyone.

This Check-in forum is totally buggy - I hope they work out the date-sort issue soon. Deb, I think SNM is aware of the issue (several people have mentioned it), and they're probably working on it. In the mean time, all you have to do to get the posts to sort right is click on the heading "Last Post", and it will put them in the right order.

Robin, I think a quick reply doesn't have as many options as a regular reply. A quick reply works just fine in most cases, I think. :)

Allie, I TOTALLY AGREE about the smilie limit - it's total bullsh*t! Pardon my french, but I need more than 4 smilies to get my point across. I'm a very expressive person. *pouts*

I'm having a totally crappy day, so I won't bore you all with the details of my meaningless life. Being an engineer has its perks, yes, but working with Eddie The Bastard is not one of them. I swear I'm going to go postal on that man's ass. Okay, enough ranting about coworkers...

I did IMAX3 this morning, and am planning to reward my hard work by eating cookies all day. JUST KIDDING! :p
 
Cookies?:eek:

Oh you guys, I am right there with ya. I am trying to positive and thankful for our new home, but I thought our old home was fabulous quite frankly.

I wanna use smileys, how else can you get your point across? I always get that stupid "scolding" too...

Deb, eek a mouse? We have rats in Vegas. Yes, rats. They come out to play in the summer, glad I am not there, it is very upsetting to me, they are the most vile creatures ever. I feel the same way you do about these forums, they feel like alot of work to me. Blech. Here is how to post your avatar darlin'. Go up to the top of the page, look for the link that says User CP. Then on the next page, on the left hand side, there is a link that says edit avatar. Click. Then you can post your picture, see where it has spaces for you to copy your link to your picture? The only thing is your avatar pic has to be really small now, so you might have to go and resize it. You can do this on photobucket really easy, just choose the 100 *80 pixels sizing or at least make sure its the smallest size they offer. Does this make sense? There was a link on the OD about posting and resizing your avatars too.

Robin, going to the shore? Oh how lovely that sounds, you sound like Jackie O'...where are you going Mrs. Kennedy? "To the shore darling"...:D
Love your pic BTW, you are just so pretty to look at.

Shellers, oh thank god, here you are. I was going to send out the dogs pretty soon to find your arse! I know, I feel the same way around here...I too feel too overwhelmed to figure alot of this out. Everytime I click my profile it goes to an error page, and I hate my avatar. Blech. What did you eat dear? Couldn't be worse then my own eatfest lately, AF or not, I am in eating mode lately too.

Allison, you are so cute:)I hate their smilies, and miss our old winky one, and I miss all of your silly smiles! Hows Jimmy boy?? Yes, that workout was sick, and not sick in a good way, sick in a bad way.

Peggy, we should call ourselves the "Mad Melty Maidens!" ((hugs)) to you and to all of you who need 'em today. I too, have to get that workout in the AM otherwise it sucks trying to do it later on, I totally know what you mean.

Emily, does this mean you will be around more often? Gee I hope so, I like you, you are funny, kind, wise and sweet.:D

Who did I miss, the forum thing is not letting me go back and look...crap. Love you guys, bbl to talk more.
 
Shee-ot. I missed Kristi! I knew it. I love your avatar Kristi, your girls are so adorable, oh and tell them being flat chested is fab, clothes fit better...I am responding to a post a while back that I am just now remembering!:eek:

I want some chocolate z.bread Evily!!
 
Morning, everyone...

I agree that there are an awful lot of bugs to work out on the new forums. I find myself not wanting to post at all!

Emily - if Shelley doesn't want that cake, just pass it this way, please. Or maybe you should keep it. It sounds like you need it, considering Eddie the Bastard.

Shelley - take that rest day. Go home, get into your comfy clothes and relax.

Peggy - I hope DD feels better soon.

Allie - hey, at least you know how to use enough smilies to get yelled at. I haven't figured it out yet. So I'll continue with this: :)

Robin - wow - is this weekend the RT already? Have fun with your pre-RT weekend!!!

Shoot. I gotta go. I'm sorry I can't finish everyone's personals!
