Slavika Yes you are right I did have a Dell (I now have a Fujitsu Lifebook ) but regarding your question, it should not matter what computer you use it is more what your email system is you are using.
In Outlook Express, depending on the attachment you can click on the 'paperclip', or if it is a Microsoft Office document, click on the embedded symbol, ie 'Word Doc'. I do notice at work the set up is a little different, I use Microsoft Outlook at work.
It should be quite easy but if all else fails go to the 'help' menu
We missed you and are glad you are back. If you only gained 4 lbs I say you did good. Maria how nice that the son and ex are friends and that you can stay friends with her. That must lighten the load. Lily what does one do for the time you are wrapped up like a mummy? Just lay there? Are your arms imobile? I just know that I would have an itch or have to use the bathroom. But since it is free for you I would definitely do it. I take Premarin and still have been having some night hot flashes recently. I was thinking of working soy into my diet-I am just not sure how to go about it. It just doesn't look very appealing.
Maria thanks my friend has AOL... does that help. Mine is Outlook Express and I have the paperclip thing. I wonder if she has shut something off, like it shouldn't be that difficult to find the attachment. I'm sure they wouldn't hide it. LOL LOL
Wow, what a lot of posts! Ann, it is great to hear from you again. Sounds like you had fun.
I have a favor to ask of you. Went yesterday for my blood work test results and was disappointed. The number was up, so we are doing the test again and will get the results tomorrow. It is still in the "normal" range, but this is the way my recurrence came about too, just numbers creeping up. I am very nervous and scared.
Glenda
Hi Glenda I don't know exactly how those numbers you are talking about work, or even what they indicate. The fact that the numbers are in the NORMAL range must be GOOD. Can other things affect the numbers....like diet, stress, colds or stuff like that?
Have you had a chance to speak with your doctor yet or will you just wait until you get the results tomorrow? Really I just want you to know that I am thinking about you, and try not to be scared. I just re-read what I typed and it doesn't seem to say what I wanted it to. I am the world's biggest hugger and I do that really well, so if you were here with me now I would give you a big tight hug. Let's pretend that I did.
Every woman could have a CA-125 test. It is a tumor marker for ovarian cancer, but it isn't useful unless you have had the disease. Then you want the number to stay under 35. Mine has been consistently 4, 5, 6, or 7. So when it goes to 12 with me, it can mean some bad activity. It is still in the normal range, but just suspicious. Will let you know how the next one does. Thanks. That hug felt good. Glenda
Heaps of positive vibes from 'down under' as well Glenda, I agree with everything Slavika said but I can understand your concern.
Slavika I am not at all familiar with AOL, so cannot shed any light on your friend's problem. I agree it cannot be that difficult. In my experience I always seem to make the problem greater than what it is and dismiss the simplest solution as being just too simple. Invariable that is exactly the solution
Peggy I eat bread with soy and linseed, which is supposed to be really good for the mature lady it taste great, just like a multi-grain bread. The only difference is that it goes stale a bit quicker than other breads.

Glenda: A hug from here too, and also a prayer that the numbers will turn out to be okay. Sometimes labs make mistakes.
Maria: Great fun. Thanks. I can identify with the item about wrinkles. That wasn't in my plan either. I much prefer to look at myself in the mirror without my glasses on.
Peggy: Try some of the Boca burgers. They are soy. Also they make a great Pizza(Boca Pizza) pepperoni or sausage, but it is soy, not meat. And tasty. My DH really likes them. I also use soy cheese quite often. There is also a soy product for menopause symptoms, but can't remember the name of it right now. I have not tried soy milk, but have heard it is okay.
Karen: What is the subject for this week. I have to weigh in on Sat. I have lost 1 lb. since I got home. I have started exercising again, and that sure does make a difference. I couldn't exercise much at all while we were away.
Trudi: How are things with you?
Slavika: Have you solved the computer problem? I use Internet explorer for my email. If I get an attachment, I click on the paper cilip and usually it opens right up. But if it is a forward, I sometimes have to right click on it, again in order to open it.
We are slowly getting things settled, but still a ways to go. I found some wonderful Magnolia Swags to put over the doors. One of my favoite flowers. Still want to put a small shelf in the bathroom and also a small mirror. Our master bathroom has two
areas. I want the shelf and mirror in the shower area. Time will tell.
I just got a phonecall from my doctor with the newest test. It was down from a 12 to a 9. That is still higher than normal, but I am so relieved. We will test again in 6 weeks, but for now I don't have to think about it until Sept. 4th. Yea! I asked the doc if stress could affect it, and they really don't know, but if it could, that is what happened. My job has been nothing but stress.
Thanks for the hugs and prayers. Glenda
just quickly checking the board before going to my chiro.
Great news Glenda, bet you feel relieved
Now make sure you don't think about it until Sept 4!!!
Glenda excellent news. You are well within the normal range so try not to think about it again until they do the test again on September 4th.
Being diabetic, I check my blood sugar levels every day. Sometimes, I check it, and then I re-check, and without fail I will get a different number.....not by much, but a little. When I saw the doctor this last time my blood pressure was up a little (in the normal range, but up). He said maybe I was worried about coming off estrogen, or it could be because I am still carrying those extra pounds I gained on my winter holiday, lots of different things. Anyway, yesterday when I was at the drugstore I tested it on one of those machines you stick your arm in. I tested it 3 times, and got different figures each time. Who knows why??
I got an e-mail from my friend and she said that they solved the problem about attachments. She said she has to use a "download feature" to accomplish this. I'm not sure what she meant, but I guess it's working. Thanks all for your input.
Slavika: I know nothing about AOL mail. There is nothing to shut off. Glad she figured it out. AOL must be really different than what I have ever seen
Glenda: So glad to hear it was good news. {{{{{Hugs}}}}}}
Maria: Got to love those kids dont you? 12 CDs is alot! Loved the sayings! To funny!
Peggy: Soy, like Ann said Boca is great! They make just about everything. Love there sausages, taste to me like Polish sausage. Also Luna Bars have soy. There are even Soy Crisps (potato chips) that are pretty good. Spend some time in the health food asile at your store you will find alot.
Glenda glad your numbers dropped. I know how worried you must have been.
Ann The topic this week has been my least favorit part of Weight Watchers. Activity Yuk! I do it but I hate it. Don't like to sweat!!!! And all my members know this. So I've been doing my own thing this week,and it's been more fun we do talk a bit about the activity but not the whole meeting.
Lily are your community meetings turning into Traditional meetings in the fall. We are have a big change over here in the central states. I only do traditional meetings . But some leaders only do Community and At Work they have to all be retrained because the paper work is all different. What Fun!
Got to go just couldn't resist posting a quick one.
Karen
Glenda I am sending you a late hug. I am so glad the numbers came down. Who knows why these things happen. I would imagine some of the stress from your work would have something to do with it. Stay calm and forget about it till the next time. I am going to lunch today with 2 old high school friends. I'll be back later. Peggy
) but regarding your question, it should not matter what computer you use it is more what your email system is you are using.
it taste great, just like a multi-grain bread. The only difference is that it goes stale a bit quicker than other breads.
Wonderful summer!
Ann
Who knows why??
