    Busy as always, aren't you, Lizzie? I hear Yukon Gold potatoes are the best kind to make mashed potatoes. I got on a mashed potato jag a while ago and looked up on the Internet the best way to make them, where I learned that. Another thing is to cut them into small pieces to boil them. It goes...

    I thought that, too. Everyone is helping everyone else figure out the new system. It's something we all have in common, happening to everyone at the same time.

    Thanks, Terry. I went and changed the preferences. If it lists every Like my messages get, that would be long. Right after I changed the preferences, though, I still got a Like alert. Maybe it takes some time to register my changes.

    Oh! I just figured out what that little green thing in the corner of the avatar is. It means you are online now. I put my cursor there, and a little message came up.

    I can't change my mood, either. And I just got an "alert." What's that? Like a PM? How do I find it?

    Awsum said something, and in reply, you thanked Trit. So he was wondering. If I hit Reply, the message I'm replying to is quoted. That is like before, isn't it?

    Here's another daffodil taken the other day. Of course, since then, spring has turned back to winter. It snowed a little yesterday and today. Nothing on the ground, though. Still, it's sort of disappointing, after last weekend being so nice. So this is my experiment to see if the photo turns...

    What makes it a downer? I just got in, giving it plenty of time to be up and running, and, though things look a bit different, so far it seems to work.

    Rave, we'll certainly miss you, but it sounds like you should go visit your sister. I'm sending vibes that everything works out for the best.

    Not much more healthy than the potato chips, I'm afraid, I decided to bring my baked potato salad, which is such a hit at Deb's parties, including the last one on Saturday. Congratulations on 4 years, Terry!

    I think you mean Dag. He's a Norwegian Fjord.

    Mariah posted some pictures of me grooming the horses. The first is of Dag. And then Lightning, the mini, whose tail was absolutely filled with burrs.

    Good morning, everyone. Yesterday was busy and fun. In the morning, I went to Mariah's place to help her groom her horses. She has 2 Norwegian Fjords and a mini. The mini was a bit cautious at first about me grooming him. Mariah said he thought I might be a vet. But the horses were loose in the...

    I'm doing OK, Lizzie. Sometimes I still can't believe Penny is gone. Since I boarded her, not seeing her around when I'm home seems pretty normal. Right now, I'm trying to decide what of hers to get rid of and what to keep. There's a used tack sale coming up soon, so I have to decide and get...

    This morning, we buried Penny. The mother of the barn owner, Sharon, decided to do it right in the pasture where Penny was lying. Of course the backhoe tore up the pasture with its tires and the hole, but it was fairly near the gate, so it wasn't too bad. I decided to be there, and I'm glad I...

    Shawn, I'm sorry about your ewe. I know how hard it is to have that happen, having just gone through it. We know that animals have shorter life spans than humans, and thus we have to face this, but it's never easy.

    I have very sad news. Today, I got a call from the barn, the mother of the boy who owns Jasmine. Penny was down again and couldn't get up. I rushed over there, called the vet, and she came and euthanized Penny. A horse needs to lie down, and will, and if she can't get up again on her own, it's...

    I'm here. Penny is fine. My daughter came for a visit for a few days, and I was busy with her. Thanks for worrying about me.
