Thanks, @SouthernBee!❤️  I just signed in and added it to your message to me titled "Hello- Great to see you!".   I'm sorry you're having internet problems.  I ran into a glitch on the PB site and, now, another problem when trying to login here, so I'm not sure if it's my device(s), the connection(s), or the site(s).

I see that @Bri369 hasn't been here since 2/20...  I saw some posts that she might be having a problem logging in here? 😕  Is she on PB?  Maybe I could try to help her diagnose the problem.

 

Speaking of PB, @SouthernBee, if you get a chance to log in to PB, there's something I need to send along to you in a message.   I haven't been over there since last spring (I think that was when it was) so I need to see if I can remember how to navigate there.😊  

 


@dooBdoo 

 

I've heard from a few people that they couldn't log in here anymore because they were getting messages that they had been banned.  These are posters that most certainly did not do anything to get themselves (legitimately) banned from here.  Yet another glitch for a few.

 

Some have gotten just as mysteriously "unbanned" and have since been able to read and post, but others still cannot.

 

As for Bri, I don't think she's been on PB lately either, although I admit I haven't checked recently.  

I truly hope she's okay.❤️

 


 

@geezerette,  That's worrisome about the bans.  Periodically I see posts saying that longtime, established posters get a message about being banned if they're on their phone but not if they login with their computer, or maybe tablet. 

Usually, that means they're using a dynamic cell phone connection (so the IP address changes from time to time) and they've inadvertently encountered an IP address that was blocked/banned by the website. 

I wonder if that's what's happening now? 

Perhaps those encountering it can try connecting to another IP address to see if it makes a difference.

I hate that I've been away from PB, but it's taken me a long time to get well enough to get back on my feet here...  I genuinely appreciate the work and time and effort the developers and moderators have invested in that venue, and I hope I can get back there soon with at least a wee bit of posting.

Thank you for that update.  You're a gem.  I miss @Bri369, too, and hope she's okay.❤️

My goodness, @SouthernBee

What an experience with the new hutch!   I've ordered several things in recent months that required assembly.  I've always had a knack for putting stuff together, but I've learned with "some assembly required" there's sometimes peril afoot 😉, lurking there to give us a jab with a missing part or something that just doesn't fit. 

I hope you get a response from the seller so you can get it fixed properly.  eBay sellers usually are good about replying to questions, but just this past few weeks I tried asking a seller about a couple of details about his listing, and even though he's been actively listing and selling he hasn't answered at all.  I tried a follow-up, and still got silence. 

So, I unwatched the item and made a mental note that this wouldn't likely be a good candidate to buy from in the future.

 

I'm glad you had a good anniversary!  Cheers to you both!❤️

@cowboy sam : Good Morning. Currently 49 and forecast high 79. Very warm yesterday and we have a no burn notice.

Our yard guy is a year round service. He comes every 14 days. Price reasonable but need to ask for a few more things to be done. We chose a professional service because previous local individuals would just stop service without any notice. Then yard would be in bad shape and cost more when we found someone else.

Please be careful when you are walking.

DH doctor visit yesterday was for ingrown toe nail. Where I was sitting no choice but to see everything the doctor was doing. Yuck. Very ingrown from the top of the toe nail to the very bottom. Doctor said he was putting extra chemical or medicine in that area to prevent the toe nail from growing back like that again. He didn't prescribe pain medication because the cause for pain had been removed. DH still sleeping and no issues last night. Told to replace big bandage this morning with bandaid and clean with Neosporin for several days. 

Placed delivery order with Walmart when we returned home because we needed the Neosporin. DH requested his favorite ice cream: the vanilla and caramel drumsticks. Order delivered after 9 p.m. and relieved they had the Neosporin. I think I had sympathetic pains because my right big toe started hurting when we returned home.😀

We really liked the doctor and DH had not been to a podiatrist in years.

Those no burn notices are worrisome, aren't they.  We're lucky here since we've had tons of rain with more forecast to start tomorrow.

Hope you can get some good rest, @cowboy sam.

Glad you and DH survived that uncomfortable doctor visit, @SouthernBee.  Those sympathy pains can be weird (and very real!), can't they.

I slept about 2 hours last night, not sure what the problem was but now I feel less than spectacular.🙃  Sleep definitely is not overrated!

Stay cool, safe, and sassy, ⭐️Preds and Friends!⭐️

Love and (((hugs))) to all who read and post here!❤️

Really....another website with sign in issues. Trying to sign in on the Kohl's website. Entered my info and clicked on the send button and nothing happens. I wanted to check my purchase history for a product size. Frustrating.
