I love to make scrapbooks. I am currently working on one a thank you gift to the hostess who allowed us to stay with them on our vacation this past summer. They are friends of ours and actually took their vacation to vacation with us. We had a great time in Colorado!
I'm wondering if anyone has used any of the scrapbook softwares that are out. I think I might try to do it this way to conserve some time. Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated.

scrapbooking sm
I am not sure if I can help. I do scrapbooking but I use different theme papers and put them in a plastic protector without slots after its done. Anyway did you try typing out what you want on Word, then printing it out. If you have a printer that you can print out pictures , you can scan your word document into your computer and then print it out on the paper that you usually use for your picture, so it will come out on a 3 x 5 paper. Hope this makes sense. I know what I mean but it is hard to explain. If anyone can explain this better please feel free.
I collect scrapbooking materials but haven't made one yet!

software
I believe they make it seem as though you need to buy it. Yes the practice is good if you are able to take that time w/o getting paid.
Due to software upgrade....
Pages were not loading as usual but it's done now and forums are working fine.
Thanks for your patience.

hard drive & software
I have an older computer I would love to upgrade. My problem is I have company provided Olympus software that I do not have the CD for. I have a newer computer with the software on it as well (I have 2 offices). I would like to either upgrade or retire the older one and even own a newer third computer that I use for other work, but I have to use the old clunker when I am at my second office because I cannot transfer the software, and the distance and time constraints have kept the MTSO from being able provide the CD to be loaded on the new computer.
Do you have your original modem software?
You may have to reinstall it for the computer to recognize the modem.
If you don't have separate modem software, you may have to reinstall Windows. Be sure you back up anything you don't want to lose. You shouldn't lose anything, but just in case....
line counting software
I just read on this site that word has a count function!!! I did not know that. I just spent 89.00 on Wordtraverse software. I am sending it back!
I saw a demo of the software on TV long time ago. sm
there was a slate-like appendage that you could draw on with a pencil-like tool. and then the software did remarkable things, but this was some time ago.
goodle it, research. you're bound to find a site with a demo.
No Way! Anti-Virus software not going to work.
Malware creators love to target April Fool's Day with their wares, and the latest worm, called Conficker C, could be one of the most damaging attacks we've seen in years.
Conficker first bubbled up in late 2008 and began making headlines in January as known infections topped 9 million computers. Now in its third variant, Conficker C, the worm has grown incredibly complicated, powerful, and virulent... though no one is quite sure exactly what it will do when D-Day arrives.
Thanks in part to a quarter-million-dollar bounty on the head of the writer of the worm, offered by Microsoft, security researchers are aggressively digging into the worm's code as they attempt to engineer a cure or find the writer before the deadline. What's known so far is that on April 1, all infected computers will come under the control of a master machine located somewhere across the web, at which point anything's possible. Will the zombie machines become denial of service attack pawns, steal personal information, wipe hard drives, or simply manifest more traditional malware pop-ups and extortion-like come-ons designed to sell you phony security software? No one knows.
Conficker is clever in the way it hides its tracks because it uses an enormous number of URLs to communicate with HQ. The first version of Conficker used just 250 addresses each day -- which security researchers and ICANN simply bought and/or disabled -- but Conficker C will up the ante to 50,000 addresses a day when it goes active, a number which simply can't be tracked and disabled by hand.
At this point, you should be extra vigilant about protecting your PC: Patch Windows completely through Windows Update and update your anti-malware software as well. Make sure your antivirus software is actually running too, as Conficker may have disabled it.
Microsoft also offers a free online safety scan here, which should be able to detect all Conficker versions:

Just a little ego there. It's a guy. She probably just wanted to sit with someone familiar.

Not familiar with medication, but is there some way SM
you can cut it in half or quarters and start out taking a tiny amount, then gradually start taking the entire pill? If you are able to do that, your body will get used to it and you will soon be able to consume entire amount.
Or ask doctor is there is something else to try. Good luck to you.
This sounds familiar...
I now have BC/BS as of 01/01/07, but I had Cigna before that (who covered everything). My gynecologist recommended Mirena placement for SEVERE cramping and menorrhagia for me to prevent hysterectomy which would cause complications due to other medical problems, and was not being placed for contraceptive reasons (I have PCOS). BC/BS said Mirena was not covered and the explanation was that Mirena as a form of birth control was much too expensive and recommended an oral contraceptive. Again, it was strongly emphasized to BC/BS that I did not require Mirena for contraception, but for menstrual problems. I have not used any contraceptive method in almost twenty years...but they denied me. Well, the strangest part of it all is that they denied me the $675 Mirena placement, but BC/BS sent me a letter and I have been approved for the $3800 hysterectomy, which we were trying to avoid because of possible medical complications related to surgery, which could cost even more. Go figure!!!
I'm not familiar with the items you used
but I do definitely try to find natural cures if possible. I flatly refuse to take prescription or OTC cough medications. I make my own, because it's so much better for me, and it doesn't contain all those chemicals that wreak havoc on my body. I have and continue to use herbs for various things. I think it's important to know about alternative cures. There may come a day (and it's here for a lot of people) when we won't be able to get prescription meds, or be able to afford them, and we'll need to know how to take care of ourselves for a lot of things.
Sounds familiar
I live in Saratoga Springs NY about a mile from the track. Come August, same thing. We're too far away to rent out our yard. You DON'T want to try to drive anywhere in town at 6:00 p.m. when the track lets out. But it's exciting and you pick up on all the energy of the city for a month! Nice to get the streets back in September, though.
Anyone familiar with Snellville, GA? SM
Friend of mine is moving there to be with boyfriend. She said it's a nice quiet town, but another friend just told me there is a gang problem there. All I know is, it's a small town. Can anyone tell me about this town? Now I'm concerned. The other friend lives in Marietta, GA.
Thanks.
PS
I want to live in Savannah, but that's another story.
Yep. Sounds familiar.
We have upwards of 2 dozen cases in my state. However, officials in my area of the state are neglecting to test people with symptoms.
People are getting this and spreading it as they go because they are told they have a cold or something and they can go back to work or school.
It is on the verge of insane here where I live. I got sick a week ago and ended up in the ER. Two days later, my DH got it too. Will never know what it was because they are not testing people appropriately.
RUTIN, not familiar with this. Is this a pill? NM

Not familiar with carbon credits - what is that?
Also to change the topic a bit since you mentioned it, what about life on other planets - believer or not? If you believe, do you think we have been visited?
I agree, maybe seeing a familiar name as a donor will encourage others. NM

Sounds familiar with hubs not wanting any more
cats around. I had an older girl and hubs brought home 2 young guys (he thought when the older one died the 2 younger would take her place, not true of course but he thought that). The older girl died and before long I spoke with him about another kitty. I have loads of room, work is ideal for pets around, he travels so they are loads of company for me but he said absolutely not. Ok, my housekeeper called me 1 day, said kitty up a tree, she would be over when she got it down and I asked her to bring with her as she could not keep. Instant love, not only with me but hubs. I told him the cat had shown up at my house meowing and running from the dog. Well, that was true- she had shown up at the door and had been running from the dog, just not at my home. Gina, my kitty, is now his best friend, follows him around the home, comes for petting and stays in whichever room he is in. It is kitty love for him now.
Well, have to get the word out. How many of you are familiar with Belk Dept. Stores? sm
Well, they bought out our local Parisian Dept. store, promised to come in to our town, buy the building (in our local mall), and then backed out at the last minute. We live in a town of over 300,000. Anyways, so there is no longer any store there in the mall. They are just like Macy's. etc.
They have THE POOREST CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER (via phone) I've ever encountered. They don't even bill on a 30-day billing cycle, so my payment was due TODAY when I always thought it was the 6th of every month (I last made a payment Oct. 6 and thought I'd pay my bill a few days early) only to find out that the bill would be considered late if not paid by 5 p.m. EST. If I paid it on line like I always do, you MUST make the payment date at least 2 days later than today's date (makes no sense) so next month I would be LATE and charged 35.00. So I call to make a payment. This rude lady tells me: Go into a store and make a payment. I tell her, "well, we don't have a store within 200+ miles of my home since you guys never did come here," Then she says, "Well, you can pay by phone today by 5 but it will cost you an extra 15.00." So, I'm livid. She gets her supe on the phone who is rude as h*** and tells me that she wasn't the one who decided to pay late! OMG!
So, I call husband very upset. To make a long story short, I finally paid it after 3 LONG PHONE CALLS to these fools (all 3 of them were extremely rude). One guy put me on hold for 15 minutes (I counted!!) after I asked to speak to his supervisor and he gets back on the phone (minus his supervisor) after being put on hold and then I finally pay part of my bill.
Thank GOD Belk isn't around here. Sounds like a godsend.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE if you work hard, don't shop there! They SUCK** and I will NEVER shop there!!
I have been living that life for the last 2 years. Very familiar story. SM
I have two kids at home and a baby on the way. My husband keeps gettign laid of jobs due to slow business Just got word that after Christmas he will be laid off again. As it is, we can barely afford to feed the family... so dont know what we will do come January when we lose his income.
There are no jobs for him to apply to. We do not qualify for unemployment for some reason....
And its not like we are lazy or bad people. All we do is work. I work 3 different jobs for 3 different MT companies. I wake up 2 hours before the kids go to school, work while they are in school, and even have to make up soem time at nigth when everyone is sleeping. That in addition to my husband's job... we can barely, and I mean barely make it...
Then I spend the rest of my free time cleaning the house, doing dishes, laundry, errands, bills, homework with the kids. Im pregnant and should be getting more rest. HA!! What a joke.
And I know all about the bank fees. We pay probably 100-200 a month in fees becuase when you live paycheck to paycheck it is just something that happens.. Sorry folks... Its not about being good a balancing your checkbook... not in these times. We have to play russian roulette with the monies sometimes.
My husband and myself do not have insurnace. I do now through Medicade because I am pregnant. We were hoping to drop the Medicaid when my husband's insurance kicked in... but he got laid off before that happened. My kids have CHIP, so that is good... But I am down to my last pair of contacts and I havent taken them out in 2 months because I do not have the extra 100 dollars to make an appt and then 50 for the contacts.
The school hits us up for $$$ every week for this, that, and the other thing... which all that does is take food off our plates. If one of my kids loses a shoe or needs a winter jacket, etc.... it puts us out.
Not to mention on top of all of that... My brother-in-law was in a car accident in a car he bought from my husband, but never took the time to put it in his name, and now it is back on us. We have 30 days to come up with 4000 dollars or my they take my husband's license away. Sounds crazy huh? Lawyers say they cannot do that... but they say they can...(the insurance company), but who has money to pay the lawyer for the help?? Not us.
I could go on and on and on and on and on and on.. LIke how it is Christmas, which is hard enough, but on Dec 31st it is my daughter's b-day and then just 3 weeks later it is my other daughter's birthday... How I am going to give them a nice birthday is beyond me...
Anyway, you are not alone!!!!! Of course I have never thought about suicide. That is not an option for me and I cant imagine ever would be...
If you think that way, you need some medication and therapy real quick!!!!!! Other than that, what is the worst that can happen? There has got to be help somewhere... food stamps??? I am going to look into them myself... I might have to skip on paying rent this month... and hope the landlord understands...
Come January 20th, I hope some good things start to happen and we can be on the road to a brighter future... but until then... we have to ride it out somehow. How, I dont know. I just take every day at a time...
And this morning, I cried during my first hour of typing... Typing through the tears.. so you are not alone there either.
Too many of these stories becoming familiar, in addition to inforcing the death penalty....sm
I have to ask myself why so much of society these days is behaving in this way, uncontrollable, ugly rage...is it the decay of family units, absentee fathers, is it the abundance of drugs, violence in media....I am old enough to remember a time when these atrocities seemed to be the RARE horror stories, why the abundance now? No God in their worlds?????
