I thought I was pretty computer savvy....but I'm not finding a 'how to' page on this site - does anyone have any tips to share? Maybe being a member for less than an hour has something to do with it! Thank you!

Hi Dreamer! I know what you mean...I just went to forum home today, and under the general section, there's one called forum management. All I really know is that there are no chat rooms, you just click on any subject you're interested in, and either add your own post, or add a reply to another....been cruising through the different forums today myself!

Thank you, Debra! I'll 'cruise' too, and it should start to fit together soon. I'm going to click Instant Graemlins - I don't know what will happen - and I don't know the difference between Add Reply and Full Reply Form....but here goes!

[Eek!] Dreamer, were you surprized to find these little faces? I wasn't sure what was going to happen either! I don't know the difference in the replies either---shall we click and see?

Post Reply is another empty box, in which I'm now typing. This could be dangerous - I have lots to do in the house and am now glued to the computer! Anyone else have this problem? And did my previous message go anywhere? [Confused]

YES!!!!

And did my previous message go anywhere? I've lost so many posts this morning while transferring between the reply screen and the thread screen! I keep getting booted out. But if I click on the "back" button (on my Internet Explorer) I can usually recover my post. Now I'm copying and pasting them to my hard drive before clicking that "Add Reply" button.

Is anyone else having that problem?!! It's very frustrating! It's probably my old, slow dial-up connection.

I know I would sit here all day, if I could! It's so much more fulfilling than pouring chocolate milk and juice 18 times a day!!

OK, the second my last message posted, my 5 year comes in and says "can I have some chocolate milk??" Then I tried to post this one and got bumped off. Before I could log back on my 3 year old said "can I have some apple juice??" [Eek!]

I love the spirit of you gals. Just jumping in and exploring. Way to go! It can be overwhelming at first, I will vouch for that, but you will find that in two days you'll have mastered the forum and will be chatting away on your favorite topic.

WELCOME MY FRIENDS. And yes, we are all addicted to this site. If you don't believe me, you should see my house... and yard... and car... who says you can't make a path thru "stuff?" hahaha...I can't get started during the day without checking in to see what's going on with my sustahs...I'm thinking this is the reason God invented TV dinners.

My motto

I have more time for misbehavin'
Since I've been a microwavin'
