Isn't it funny how that works. I can usually go all day and not feel hungry at all, but TELL me I CAN'T eat, and all of a sudden, starvation strikes!! LOL

Hate on this site I can no longer X out of the ads on the side when using Chrome at work. I Do Not want to look at The Big Baby trumppo face. Nice to know that the ads are ramping up on him to get his face in the spot light.
I will stick to FireFox and not see this anymore so I will only have to be on at home
yes I know that this site does not have control over the ads

Wonder what your settings are. I never get ads. EVER. And I use Chrome, IE, and Edge here at work. Mostly look at the forum using Chrome though, and don't see ads.

meh, I'm not playing with the settings, it will probably revert back due to the server crap.
Now it is all Chevy ads.... maybe some boobby is searching things and it ends up here ... just to irritate me LOL

I'm just glad I don't get ads. I don't get them at home, or here. In fact I don't get them on an forum I'm a member of, but I hear others are always having problems with pop-ups, ads on sidebars etc., That would drive me nuts.

I use an ad block when I'm on the computer.. On my phone I only on the top, and not all pages.

Thanks, love.. I hope so, too. Both my kids are rarely sick so it's not something I'm used to. Them, too I suppose haha.. But then again, it's not something anyone should be getting used to lol
Gripe:
A few weeks ago, I finally took the plunge and bought a container of StarSan (IrishLass makes it sound like it's good for everything! ;-) Paid $60 CDN for 32oz (which will hopefully last forever). Within 12 hours of my ordering it, Amazon helpfully informed me that the price had dropped to $55. Within another 6 hours, it had dropped to $50. Not that Amazon was going to refund me anything; they just wanted me to know that everyone else in the world is going to be paying $10 less than me.
I haven't gone back to check since; I assume by now that they are giving the stuff away.

That's a real bummer, MGM. I mostly get notices that the stuff in my 'save for later' basket have gone up in price.

I would have called their customer service. I always have good luck with Amazon's cs. And as long as you are nice and not yelling/screaming they seem to bend over backwards to make you happy.
That has always been my experience anyway, and I will bet you they would have knocked that $10 off by either refunding or crediting your account.

Waaaah EVERYONE is selling it for less than I paid. I saw it at OBK but they were sold out on the day I was looking. Probably came back in right after I clicked away. Amazon has since gone up $5 and it's probably not worth my time calling. Need to store up my reserves to call a different line on Amazon to find out why they keep charging my CC for a music service that I am not subscribed to that they refunded already once this spring, AND Rev Canada to find out why they rejected, then demanded, my HST payment. GRRRR.

OMG! Good thing you discovered it before you served it. I once made a pie with salt instead of sugar. That was a long, long time ago. Unfortunately, my BIL had a good mouthful before we realized what I’d done.
Hope the baby is feeling better!

Salt instead of sugar. My baby brother, (one of them as there are a few) once mistook a Tablespoon for a teaspoon and over-measured the baking soda in the cookies he was making. Ugh! What an awful taste for cookies! He has never lived that one down in 50 years.
I am not one for sugar, so often do not have any granulated sugar in my house unless I am actively preparing hummingbird feeders on a regular basis. So for one of my sons' birthdays when it came time to make koolaid, I only had powdered sugar on hand. Koolaid with powdered sugar ends up with little floaties on top (the cornstarch, I suspect). Not sure how it tasted to the kids, but I thought it tasted okay, but then again, I am not a sweets sugary type of person.
Gripe: The only thing to gripe about here in Hawaii is that the internet goes down every half an hour or so, meaning Hubby is having a hard time submitting a paper for a class he is taking. He already skipped one day's outing with us because of it and will be skipping today as well because the deadline for the paper is tomorrow. But my real gripe is that he procrastinated finishing the paper, and put himself into this position of his own free will and it irritates me that he can't admit that he is the reason the paper isn't done yet.

And here I thought it's over.... After the fever came the rash.. He has HFMD. Hand, foot n mouth disease... We haven't slept well in days coz of the discomfort and to make things worse it looks like I caught it. I just hope we don't give it to anyone else, or I give it back to him.
