Hello my loves! Sorry I haven’t been on. Had a busy day today. My FIL gave us money to get Toby new sneakers because he outgrew them awhile ago and we were also able to get him mittens his size so he didn’t have to wear adult sized gloves anymore. Hate being poor.

Anyway, I’m glad VJ is doing well, hope you get over your cold/flu/bug soon! Miss you love!

Nice to see you sticking around Smigo! Glad the fires haven’t gotten to you! Sorry about the dust storm!

Hello Jimi love! I didn’t get a chance to read those articles but I’m definitely going to see them tomorrow!

My Rhianne love! I love you darling! Good to see you!

I love you all! Glad to hear Pockets is ok and just having computer problems! I have to head to bed with the little one now. See you all tomorrow! Love you’s and big hugs!!

:hug::blowkiss:<3:hearts:

Have a good night’s sleep, Amber. Big hugs to you and Toby. Love you, too!
Yep, being poor sucks. We’ve all been there at one time or another. Just keep doing the best you can. And try not to let it get to you, sweetie. You’ve got a great family, and this fam is here for you. Love you so much! :hug::heart::hug:

I’m feeling so much better, thanks! Meat, rice and veggies were great this weekend. I hadn’t realized I was so f*cked up from no meat! So, this week I’ll have eggs a few times a week and maybe chicken. I was only eating once a day, so I’ve got to push it up to two. Don’t ask, when I’m stressed, eating disorder kicks in.

I am glad you are eating better, I go long stretches without meat but still get my protein, I think that's where most fail. You can't imagine just how much I eat:rolleyes: but being off my diet on the holidays put on 6 pounds

What protein are you eating? I was going to get Capra goat whey or maybe pea protein. The goat whey would prolly be better, though. They have a Mineral Whey, too.
I used to add pea protein powder to everything I drank, and I felt better then. No accounting for dumb ass moves with me!

Good morning my loves! I smoked more CBD last night and slept like a dream! I was so hesitant about trying it because the oil never worked for me, but this stuff has been doing great! Sorry I missed you all yesterday! Was a busy day! I have therapy at 9am today too and then painting later so it might be another day where I’m in and out. I’ll miss you all while I’m off!

I really hope you all slept well and have a great day! I’ve been switching flavors like crazy lately and menthol is no longer my favorite :)! I’m so proud of myself and thankful for all of you!

Lots of love and many many hugs!

@VapeJunkie How are you doing?

Sorry dear, I woke up last night trying to breathe after sinus congestion and did a round of likes and such while waiting for nyquil to work. You must have noticed me during my brief stay. Sorry I left before your message was posted or noticed. I promise I was not avoiding you... :hug:How are you this morning? I hope all is well. I guess we both were rather restless last night. I know I am sluggish today, so after work I am doing nyquil and maybe 2-3 straight shots of bourbon to fall asleep to. Might just hit the spot. No more than that amount of bourbon since more will only give me a buzz and then I am wired to have fun... :D

Hello to everyone in the MG family. Hope you guys are having fun and are finally awake. It's great seeing all the tunes and the love in the room. Sorry I am still somewhat distant. Just feel yucky and doing a bunch of modifications to Windows 10. The upgrade on the other partition had a few driver issues so been reading a lot trying to optimize the system while also limiting Microsoft from spying on me.... I swear while Windows 10 is visually appealing, it is so full of spyware. Been trying out ShutUp10 for an antispyware and a program called Destroy Windows 10 Spying which blocks all their programs and sets firewall blocks to most of their sites. Seems the combination of the two really is working but have to tweak it so a few programs continue to work. Anyhow, that has been my bulk of the days when not working. Well that and sleep.

Again I want to say I miss you guys and hope you all have a great day. Maybe after I hit a learning block I will be back in for some fun. I am off tomorrow so maybe I will have more time to myself other than just researching. Just hate having projects not completed... You know how it goes. Later for now.... :hug::blowkiss:<3

I really like organic bone broth and dried organic beans to boost protein, through the winter I usually have fish once or twice a month.

I just posted a short list of protein options in my health thread

Good to hear from you. If you’re having sinus problems, you may want to try Quercetin. It works great for my sinus congestion and headaches. Wolfe recommended it to Jimi, and Jimi to me. So it’s got the Wolfen seal of approval! It’s not really expensive, either.
If I’m stuffed up, it clears me up fast.

Anyhoo, I’m glad you’re slightly around. Miss you, bro. :hug::heart::hug:

I saw that, and read it. Since eggs are so protein rich, I may stick with them and chicken.
I know Dr. Axe has bone broth powder, but I don’t know if it works. But having a protein powder worked for me. Of course I need to eat fresh protein, though!

Hey Jimi and the rest of the MG family... Hope everyone is doing good.... Just writing to say I miss you guys and I hope you all are staying warm through the cold.... Well except for Smigo which is living in the heat. Hopefully he is staying away from the smoke down under.

Great to hear about Pockets. It seems we both are having computer issues. Damn Windows 7 is no longer under Microsoft's protection, So I created a dual boot Win 7 / Win 10 hard drive as I transfer over programs to get my Win 10 up to speed. Still a work in progress. Add that to work and still fighting a bug off and on, and I am a busy body at the moment. Hopefully things will die down here in a few days or so.

Anyhow I miss you guys and wanted to step in to say hello and I say I have not fallen off the map. Maybe off the wagon but still on the map...:teehee: Ok, later guys.... :hug::blowkiss:<3

PS: Glad to see the boy's of Amber finally get to play in the snow. I guess she finally got out there and enjoyed her snow pants... Awesome to see. Great pics by the way.... Also was funny to see the kitty gliding down the stairs. Hope it was fun dear..... Next time I'll be waiting at the bottom of the stairs.... lol

I have the same problem with my computer as you do- I am still using Windows 7 as the free Windows 10 upgrade wouldn't load in mine.
Lately when I come to this Music Game thread it will Freeze and lock my screen - so frustrating as well as You Tube-
So I will not be posting as much on this thread until I get a new computer. Sick of shutting down and restarting my computer every time I am on this thread or trying to get a You Tube video.

Yes the bone broth powder is good, I like the one Organixx has but if you have access to "clean well treated chickens I would save every bone and make my own broth. I posted a recipe for making your own. I used our turkey bones from thanks giving since it was local bird that I knew was "clean" and made a wonderful broth

I too am using windows 7, to be honest I don't know how to do the upgrade and it seems as though it's a big PITA to do and mine goes crazy when I come to this thread or the other music threads but in a minute or two it clears up. I wonder if it because they are tweaking (working on) the entire forum

Hello my loves. This is the painting I started yesterday and finally finished today.

My FIL was talking a lot of shit about me this morning while I was sleeping in since it was my day to sleep in but I woke up at the right time and stayed in the room listening to him degrade me to my husband. I went to the recovery center where I paint in my pajamas I was so pissed off and didn’t say a word to anyone. I’m still in a really bad mood and upset about it, so sorry my loves and my wonderful MG family... but I don’t feel like playing any tunes today. Only going to be on the VU here and there to try to win one of the flavor contests so I can get more flavors I need as I’m running low. I hope you all understand and forgive me. I love you all! Many hugs sent!

:hug:<3

Hi Amber, Great painting:) dear, I am so sorry he is that way to both of you:( We'll all be so glad to see you's get out of there and into your own place:bliss:. We all understand and care so much:hug::hug:
Thank you my Jimi love! When we get our own place again, instead of throwing a house warming party I’m going to throw a “got rid of FIL party”

Strange, my Win 7 is purring like a cat. Still running perfect other than every morning I get a splash screen reminding me there is no more support for Win 7... I click to remind me later and back to business as usual. My issue is some of my drivers from the Dell XPS 8500 disk was before Win 10. Sounds easy to just download them but still no internet for my Win 10 partition. My upgrade failed so what I did was create a new partition and clean installed Win 10 on it. So it is a matter of downloading the drivers and adding to flash drive while in Win 7 then reboot into Win 10 to install.... A pain in the rump but at least when Win 10 is done, I can then reclaim all the space being used for Win 7... lol

Sorry to hear of both Jimi's and your issues with the upgrade.... My biggest issue is I want to setup windows with UEFI Bios with GPT instead of Legacy Bios with MBR. That way I can enable Secure Boot as well in my Bios. It can be done in Win 10 by using the MBR2GPT.exe but my Win 7 would no longer be bootable. So I am just updating drivers while I have both OS's setup and when all the drivers are in place and everything is working like I want, then I will change over.

I too am using windows 7, to be honest I don't know how to do the upgrade and it seems as though it's a big PITA to do and mine goes crazy when I come to this thread or the other music threads but in a minute or two it clears up. I wonder if it because they are tweaking (working on) the entire forum

Thinking that is more in regards to all the links we use in a page used for music or images so it really pulls on the sites resources when the page is almost full. Not gonna be the one to suggest they use 25 replies per page vs the 50 per page they are using now but that would fix the load on there resources and our issues as well.... Might even fix the TT issues as well with smaller pages.....
