...thank you all, however it is most likely going to become worse (and I'm not talking about tonight's football game). 

Again for certian reasons, I cannot discuss the details here.

I suspect I will have to take a two year sabatical from Daz after this long, long, long post but I feel this post could maybe help you or someone else going through adversities. What I am about to share is a true, sad yet triumphant story. Saying, hang in there,may seem like hallow words but do hang in there. My husband,and I met at work. We made over 200K between us and had no clue in six years we would be living on a household income of $237.00 a week. Everyone at work envied us. We were a powerhouse of two lucky, blessed people who found each other ... soulmates. We married in 2004. We were each divorced, in our late forties . Five years later, in September of 2009, my husband was injured at work. In March of 2010, he underwent a spinal surgery that went south and both our careers, and our lifestyle came to an abrupt halt. Our first attorney was a workers comp attorney, hired after the surgery in 2010. In 2011, after a second mandatory life saving surgery, I knew things were going to get worse. Our future was ruined and appeared to be doom and gloom. I tried to get our house mortgage modified (3 times) tried to get SSD (appealed it twice while husband confined to a hospital bed awaiting a life-saving surgery) and tried to get a malpractice attorney (no takers). Our 2nd attorney was a debt attorney. We were desperate. We hoped he would negotiate lower payments until workers comp settled. This was over six years ago, and his workers comp is still not settled. The 2011 debt attorney told us flat out, that what we needed was a bankruptcy attorney. We shuddered at that thought, but time caught up with us and grabbed us by the throat. I made a last (my third) attempt to get a malpractice attorney, and failed. I finally bit the bullet and in the fall of 2011, humiliated, embarrassed and hopeless, filed for bankruptcy. We used our mortgage payment to pay the bankruptcy attorney. Our bankruptcy cleared in 2012. About a month later, a medical malpractice attorney (from BOSTON) called us and said someone sent him our info and he offered to take the case. By now I had filed for my second appeal for SSD and had been denied again, which is a game SSD plays at the expense of the victims and the tax payers. I hired an SSD attorney (my husband's former client). He told us there was a two year waiting list. My husband was on the verge of suicide. In desperation I wrote a letter to the judge requesting an expedited hearing. And just when I thought, surely to God things cannot get any worse than this, they did. The hospital attorneys accused us of fraud and withholding an asset of the bankruptcy in hopes that the malpractice case would be diismissed. The government took control and lay claim to  the bankruptcy case as an asset because the first surgeon messed my husband up prior to the bankruptcy. After multiple court hearings we were cleared of fraud but the government now owned and controlled the malpractice case. By now Id' been denied, a third time, for a mortgage modification because they lost my fedexed paperwork. This is how the system works  is. I  called and wrote the presidents office (one of many letters I wrote to high officials). We had no rights. Fast forward to the end. We did not regain ownership of the malpractice case. We still do not qualify for a credit card or a mortgage BUT we now own (mortgage free) a house we rent out. We live in the house we had prior to bankruptcy with a modified mortgage. We paid off our truck and toy trailer (we owned the bank owned prior to bankruptcy) and bought a Town & Country Van with cash. I designed a therapuetic cliff type pool and cave/spa and two years later we paid to have it  custom built. We paid for 26 solar power system, and installed two authentic 20 foot resort style Pallapa with bars/grills with out back. I am not bragging. My point is we were 3 inches from being homeless and nobody would help us. We prayed and I believed that it would get better. I refused to give up. The moral of the story is do not give up, never cave, there is always a silver lining on the far edge of that dark cloud. This is not my first dark cloud and I suspect it won't be my last. At age 13 after 8 years of being trapped in isolation and enduring violent abuse at the hands of a stepmother, the courts snagged me as their ward. At  age 15 I was a child bride. At age 24 my first son was kidnapped. The list goes on and on and on. At age 45 I was held at gunpoint by a PSTD vet. The point is I have had tons of adversities and often felt the world was swallowing me up and things would never get better, but whenever I chased those thoughts away and learned to gulp for air and fight back, it was worth it. If you quit . . . you lose. Stay strong. Find something to focus on that makes you happy. Whatever you do don't focus on the bad stuff, at least not while you think it can't be fixed. It serves no purpose but to destroy you. Focus on the bad things only to disect them and find a way to fix them, change them or twist them in your favor (favour). If there is no resolve (and there always is) walk away, rebuild your strength but revisit your trials and tribulations if they are worth overcoming. Sometimes the best thing may be to walk away from them and start fresh. But before you do, peek at them every so often just in case you missed an opportunity to wrestle that sucker to the ground. If I learned one thing from life it is: no matter how trapped we feel (by systems, injustices or hardships), us humans were designed to overcome adversities.

m&ms baked into a choccy chip cookie, amazing concept, and tasy.

 

what ever'body doing today?

agent unawares

Cheating and using eggnog as coffee creamer. :)

Going to try to figure out a good way to make skies with a stormfront rolling in. And maybe finish a render for fun.

Think I'll get some smoked salmon or trout and see how it goes in ramen. Don't know what kind of vegetables I could get away with adding there. :\

I think green bell peppers would go well with the salmon.  Diane makes a chowder with those ingredients.

I think smart content is being smart on me. It shows that it is connected but shows no content.

..I've been having that same issue.  It shows as running in Task Manager, has a port number listed in Preferences, but doesn't highlight anything in the content tab. (still using 4.9).
