I think I prefer the online version myself

I couldn’t manage without the apps. I use them on the IT forum where I am a moderator all the time - they’re both using the same apps.

I happily do everything in them, I know the tags for bold, italics, etc, and happily put it into webview when I have to (usually only to do a youtube video for TFO - I do it more when moderating on the other forum)

I turn off image previews (it’s in the settings) because it annoys me.

I much prefer using my computer, however, as I spend a lot of time vegetating in my recliner, I spend a lot of forum time on my Kindle. I'm not computer literate, but since I didn't download anything, and I access the forum through my web browser, I'm assuming I don't use an app or other.

Hi Carol. Not Laundry today. Son is on a plane flying home from Helsinki, so I may as well wait and add his gear into the heap! I have been out gardening today.

JoesDad has managed to engineer working in the office nearest the airport today which makes him well placed to pick Son up; the plane is scheduled to land at 18:10 :)

It is really quite cloudy and humid here right now. I think (hope) there may be a storm brewing.
Oh. You must really be looking forward to your son coming home. Maybe not the laundry though. Lol

Hey, I've kinda been taking time away from technology for a little bit. My physical condition is getting better. I've been doing a lot of work around the house cleaning. Trying to get out and do more.

Spending time with my dogs and fish also.

Oh that is so good to hear. That you are getting better. And nothing wrong with getting away from technology. Enjoy it. It is actually a good thing. Simple is a great way to destress.

Carol you are so good at keeping up with everyone !!

I’ll be able to relax this week. My husband left for China so I don’t make big dinners and I get lazier when he’s gone.

Our girls played great soccer yesterday. It was still hot and humid and they had one sub and ended up 1-1. We were also playing up a bracket and ended up in 3rd place.
It’s a new team and new coach.

My daughter played defense for the first time and she did great but still has to learn the position.

Sorry, I didn’t mean to ramble about my kids soccer.
Ramble away. I like hearing everyone's stories. And thank you. I try. When my hubby is away i also don't make big dinners. So I am totally with you on that one. And I am sure your daughter will have her new position sorted in no time. [emoji3]

I am the same when JoesDad is away if I am on my own. JoesDad will be heading out to New Delhi in the next couple of weeks to mop up some work crisis; I won't be going with him... he'll be working long hours and it's not like Palma where I could wander round onmmynown and do my own thing.

It's cool to learn about your kids soccer! Don't apologise! They don't stay young long!
Seems like when the cats away all the wives relax and don't play.[emoji6] [emoji23] [emoji23]

Yes....shots of wildlife...even of the gardens, streets...and vlei. All of interest. Ok...new darker forest color for our shed looks more like we wanted. Three sides left. Plenty of daylight left here... have fun.
[emoji22] I didn't make it to the vlei. But that is the goal for this week before it rains on thursday. We are also going to the farm on saturday so will take some photos there too.

Hi everyone!
Glad your feeling better Dan.
Hope y'alls weekend was fun.
I'm impatiently waiting for a package to show up. A new project for me and daughter to try out, it's called diamond embroidery. No needlework required! You can see what I'm talking about if you do a search on Amazon or eBay.
Glad so many of you enjoyed my Tortoise Cookies. I tried to add lots of puns in honor of the CDR.

I wonder if they’re counting on you not remembering... Whoever draws your name for TORTOISE should send you a pack of post-its ;)
Lol. Only the one thing was done by my youngest. And since I can't remember the other thing the eldest was let off the hook. But not to worry I'll think of something for him to do tomorrow and this time I'll write it down. [emoji23] [emoji23]
