No need to apologize. I wasn't offended in any way.

My Jack Sparrow and Cinderella!

Debbie, I'm getting the red x's for these pictures, but not all of your pictures. I'm not sure what the problem is. I don't have a Photobucket account. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.

 

[macraven]

No need to apologize. I wasn't offended in any way.

thank you, i'll sleep better tonight knowing you're not upset over it.



i should drink more coffee in the morning before i type........

 

[macraven]

came back to tuck you all into bed.


get that last glass of water now.
lights go out in ten minutes.




sweet sleep homies

 

[Tiggerrn2]

Debbie,
I, too, am getting red x for all your pix. And I do have my pix on photobucket. What gives? Slo can see them. And I never had problems seeing your other pictures.
Just checking in before my sweet sleep.
I'll see some of you tomorrow. Yea!!!

 

[Sk8Leigh]

Ok Debbie, I'm doing some exploring/tech support to try to figure out what's going on.

Take the pictures in your signature. I can see the one of your daughter. Its URL is:

http:--//i125.photobucket.com/albums/p63/Debbie6221/WDW%202006/DSC03347.jpg

if you remove the -- I stuck in there.

But then the one below it shows up as:

http:--//i125.photobucket.com/albums/p63/Debbie6221/wdw01.gif

and I can't see it. But going and finding it in Photobucket, the URL for that one should be:

http:--//i125.photobucket.com/albums/p63/Debbie6221/Disney%20MISC%20pics/wdw01.gif

By looking at that, do you see what's happening and how you might fix it? It seems like part of the URL is getting left off of some of the images, so we can see some but not others.

 

[Bunchkin]

Here I sit late at night trying to de-frazzle my brain after a very crazy, busy day!

This is what I did:

Get kids dressed, fed, etc. and shove one of them on the bus.
Vaccum, dust and clean powder room downstairs. Take shower.
Do several loads of laundry.
Go get hair colored.
Rush to get Hunter lunch.
Rush home so he can eat it. Throw on make up so small children won't think I'm the night of the living dead!!
Rush Hunter to preschool, we were 12 minutes late.
Go back home, vaccum some more, fold laundry, start more laundry.
Younger sister comes over. We sit, chat briefly and then go to lunch. At this point it's approx 1:40pm.
Jump in van and go pick up Hunter from preschool.
Go shopping at Bed, Bath and Beyond.
Rush home before Lauren gets off the bus.
Lauren gets home, the kids play for a while.
We go to dinner-me and my kids and my sister and her son.
Leave restaurant and go to Girl Scout cookie meeting for our troop. Leave sister and boys in car ( the little one was asleep). I leave after about 15 minutes but Lauren stays at meeting as it is also a fun event planned for the girls. I should have stayed longer but oh well!!
Drop sister off at our house so she can now go home. But before she leaves I had to run into the house and all the way upstairs to get the presents I bought her son at WDW that I forgot to give her!
Leave house and go to mall.
Leave mall at 9pm ( Hunter falls asleep immediately!!) and go pick up Lauren.
9:40 kids in bed, DH finally comes home from working, and I still had one load of laundry to do.


And this is why my brain is not ready for me to sleep!!!! It's still going a mile a minute!!!!!

 

[jedi_librarian]

I can't sleep either. Too much on my mind

 

[slo]

I said I wasn't going to post this morning, but here I am . I figured I might as well stay on the same schedule as the weekdays

I'm leaving my class by 3pm today so we can go see Mickey's Magic Show - I kept forgetting about that. So that should be fun!!!!

Bunchkin - I've had crazy days like that, and I always end up with a tension headache. I hope your mind was able to relax so you could get some sleep.

Well, I gotta run so I can get ready for this class - have a good day everyone!!

 

[HERSEY]

Slo Have a great time at Mickey magic. Alex and I thought is was great fun.

Bunchkin if you have that much energy come on over. I have plenty of laundry.

It's offical I have a cold. Sore throat stuffy nose the hole enchilada. On halloween night I was playing with my friends son who was sick. Kid germs are the deadlest.

I hope everyone has a great time at Wicked.

Whew!! I thought maybe I had spread the cold germs via the computer. I'm on the rebound now...I didn't even have to take night time cold medicine last night & slept fairly decently.

The only bummer thing is my 6 year old is fighting some sort of icky bug & I don't think it's just a cold anymore. This boy has been sleeping almost all day for the past couple days. I know he was out of sorts Wed but thought it was the cold everyone else has had, then Thursday afternoon he fell asleep early...yesterday he fell asleep around 3 pm in his bed and checked on him a couple times he was zonked until around 9 pm and asked "Did I miss supper?" At that point he had a fever though. He had about 2 bites of toast & went back to sleep for the rest of the night. He already woke up this morning for a drink of water, asked him how he was feeling he said awful & went back to bed. Hmmm...poor thing. Good thing we had a long weekend off of school. Hopefully he will feel better in a couple more days.

Nothing much else is happening here which is probably a good thing considering how much everyone has been not quite themselves lately.

Good Morning...Happy Saturday...

It is freezing I just don't do well with this weather!!!!! It puts me in such a funk! I literally feel like shutting down. Nothing gets done outside the house, and I get so crabby!

In regards to the Red X's... It literally hurts my brain trying to figure out the problem. I even started a thread about it where the tech guys really aren't helping me out with it either. Here are my questions... why can some people see them and others can't ...why is photobucket downloading my pix in different formats if I am doing the same thing each time ...why if I shrink the pic will you then be able to see it (and why won't photobucket shrink all my pix correctly all the time?)?????????????????????? One tech guy suggested I open a new account and download all the pix again. OMG that would take forever and I don't even know if that would work!

LET ME KNOW WHAT YA THINK!
Here is the thread.....

Thanks Leigh...
I will have to keep working on this...
Really my brain hurts!!!
Thanks!


Everyone with exciting plans have fun tonight!~

On another wierd note. If I refresh my page I get red X's too!!!!!!!

 

[roseprincess]

Hi all, Happy Saturday!
I sure hope it warms up soon, supposedly it will be warm next week?
Anyways, I woke up this morning with a massive migraine headache. Haven't had one of those in awhile. Still have the headache. Uggh!

All of you that have colds, sick, hope you feel better soon!!

Bunchkin- I did alot yest ,too, but not as much as you. You are making me dizzy, woman!

Slo- hope all goes well with your real estate training class today. Hope it's fun!

Debbie- I see your pics this morning, no red x's for me! Great job with the pumpkin carving! That is so cool!

All of you going to Wicked today, have a great time!!
Want to see pics sometime after the meet

Hi to everyone else I missed
Going to a kiddie birthday party tomorrow.

Have a good day, everyone.

 

[macraven]

good day chi town homies.



yes, i see red X's............

but i am the last one to offer advice. it took me 3.5 hours to post my blessing pic.


have fun at wicked tonight.

bunchkin and carmen, hope you were able to sleep some this morning.
i ended up until 2 this morning. didn't go on the internet as that would keep me up all night.

i do genealogy and one link ALWAYS leads to another link........

 

[jedi_librarian]

Hope everyone is having a good time at the Wicked meet

I went on a bus tour today that the library sponsored. It was a tour of Montrose, Rosehill and Graceland cememteries. Anyone interested in Chicago history, I HIGHLY recommend going on one of these. Our tour guide, Al Walavich does tours through the Chicago History Museum (aka Chicago Historical Society). We also went to a great Mediterranean restaurant called Andie's in Andersonville (duh, it just hit me why it's called Andie's )

Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well!

And Mac - I agree that genealogy can be extremely addictive. Have you checked to see if the Zion-Benton library subscribes to any databases like Ancestry or Hertiage Quest? If they do, most likely you can access them remotely from home.

i do genealogy and one link ALWAYS leads to another link........

Me too but I basically stopped once I had kids....ran out of time to do the research. The Newberry Library is great though.

 

[Becky2005]

I'm surprised...I just got a letter from Shriner's and DD has an appt. next month. I think that was pretty fast. I wasn't expecting anything until January.

Actually, I was kind of scared when I saw the letter thinking "Oh great the appointment will probably be Jan. 19 which is the High School Musical concert day". I know the one would be at night but still that is just the way our luck works for things.

Now, hopefully DH can take the day off work, even though he has started a new job as I don't want to go by myself. We don't think it should be a problem though.
