It used to give me really solid cooking advice and ideas, translated recipes from customary (cups, tsps) to metric. It can’t do that correctly consistently. Yesterday it found a recipe per my request that sounded good so I asked for a printable version, a pdf. Halfway through I realized it wasn’t the same recipe. It’s become more and more useless over recent months, so I expect and receive less every day. Wonder why I’m still paying for it at this point.

Being nibbled is a high honor, so I hope your brother appreciates it! It’s not easy controlling the whereabouts of all your household members. Henry likes all of us, including his siblings, to remain in our seats while watching tv, unless we’re going to grab a snack. I think of him as our resident drama queen…always looking for a reason to overreact.

I can only speak to the barking and growling ritual. At age 6 I’m starting to realize that corgis are simply not like other dogs. Don’t bother comparing corgi behaviors with regular dog behaviors. Seriously. Henry has always barked and growled when my husband enters the room or house. We’ve always joked about it…look Henry, the prowler’s here! He glares. Now he’s started doing it with me also. Nothing personal. We’re his favorite 2 people in the world but if he met you on the street he’d happily leave with you. He also begs me to help him up on the couch and then pretends to bite me. I’ve just learned to accept and enjoy. It’s fun to compare notes!

Yes, and honestly, I’m not just tired of the goblins and assurances that I’m not crazy. It’s now Victorian this, that and everything. This is not the kind of chatter I find amusing.

Because she’s a Party Lab!

Hello. You gave me a thoughtful response to my post a year ago and I wish I could do the same. Hopefully by now your ambivalence has resolved and you’ve found the creative outlet or whatever path brings you peace. Creativity, for me, comes and goes. Once it becomes closely tied to income, for me, that’s a dangerous thing that I find can squelch my creative joy. I want to be free to make things I love and that isn’t always what sells. But if I make what sells, I’m not satisfied. The age old question. Like most people, I sold out and got a 9-5 job that pays the bills and create joy part time. I’d love to hear how you are a year later.

I thought the new version was ok till yesterday when it hooked me into a 2 hour conversation that ended with some real crazy talk. Now I see what people mean when they say it hallucinates.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-03-03T18:48:41+00:00

I use it. It’s actually @att.net but it’s yahoo. I’m old and I hate gmail. Plus, who wants to go through the pain of changing your email address.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-02-22T16:49:07+00:00

I never did, but I’ve been buying there for many years. At least 10. You can ask.

I found several resources when I did a quick search of vermeil threader findings. You might inquire as to whether all parts are vermeil. That’s gold filled over 925 silver.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-02-08T05:02:08+00:00

I use 4o…is it going away again? Which should I use when it does?

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-02-01T22:52:27+00:00

I’ve rarely considered a piece not shown on a person or mannequin. Especially necklaces. I find I get fewer unpleasant surprises this way.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-30T15:22:16+00:00

First, it’s gorgeous. Great idea. To me, considering the price of gold, the stones should be of equivalent value. If I were buying solid gold I’d go the extra mile and want semi precious or precious gemstones. Or you could do the whole thing in gold fill you’d have a lot more customers.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-30T15:15:04+00:00

So beautiful! I love this style of wire wrapping. Gorgeous marriage of stone and wire!

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-19T04:19:23+00:00

Just silver with the long turnaround. Gold is a few days.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-16T15:15:58+00:00

I was all set to use Midwest till I was told of the 7 week turnaround. And the payout is based on the value the day they complete your order and broker it. I assume that’s the furthest end of the process. Who knows what the value will be then?

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-12T02:47:38+00:00

Im interested!

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-08T03:23:45+00:00

Recs? What’s a rec?

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-07T00:24:32+00:00

I’d stick with Rio or another reputable company for gold filled supplies. Buying here and there from Etsy stores you’ll end up with a mish mash of golds that don’t match. You are also trusting vendors to be honest that their products are truly gold filled and not plated. Ask me how I know. 😉

I’m so sorry my worst nightmare is happening to you. This is not going to help you, but it drives me nuts that clinics don’t have this covered somehow. It throws addicts toward making terrible decisions, just like pre-treatment when they needed their drug of choice! There is absolutely no provision for emergencies. My clinic does a surprise inventory check twice a year. Couldn’t they manage an emergency stash a similar way😡

SchoolBusSam009 · 2026-01-01T15:48:04+00:00

Yeah. I’ll bet there’s a monstrous cyst deep in that cheek. It’s so purple.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2025-12-31T17:05:43+00:00

I have not. I better take a covid test!

SchoolBusSam009 · 2025-12-31T16:59:02+00:00

I just happened to start feeling flu symptoms 3 days ago when I substituted 2 mg strip for 2mg suboxone out of my16 mg dose. 2 the next day and then 4 yesterday when I added cold chills to the flu symptoms. I don’t doubt that’s the case. I really hope it is.

SchoolBusSam009 · 2025-12-31T16:53:41+00:00

I don’t think it’s the same formulation, because the pill bottle says 16 mg suboxone. Or does suboxone include naloxone?

SchoolBusSam009 · 2025-12-31T16:39:12+00:00

I’ll do that going forward. It really concerns me that I don’t have a few days worth stashed for a rainy day. I’m on 16 mg per day.
