good morning!
zingy – that’s funny about the update! i didn’t update it, didn’t even peek behind the scenes once it seemed to work on my next comment which coincides with your tinkering – thank you for being so aware of the technology!!! ๐

wondering now if it auto-updated (it was nagging me to update it on the dashboard and i was blithely ignoring it, lol)
i just figured everything else was unchanged except it was updated to wordpress 4.4. it had to be a setting that came with the update. i don’t know wordpress very well so i had to poke around to find where it was but i found it eventually

if anyone’s friends with Lee Williams on Facebook (she’s a member of several Webkinz groups), she deserves everyone’s support at this time

zingy, that is so tragic. My heart breaks for her. I will keep her in my prayers during this difficult time.
With Chickadee’s issues we have attended far too many funerals for children/young adults that left this earth far too soon. ๐

thanks, everyone! i’m not very good with words and sending the usual “hugs and prayers” don’t seem to cut it under these circumstances so i’m trying to rally support for her
there are some very well-written messages on her page and she seems to be taking comfort from them all so if you’re on her friend’s list and inclined to leave a message, please feel free to do so
that and please hug all of your loved ones when you can as you never know when the least expected happens

From what I understand from her page the other driver’s identity is being protected by the press (the 21 year old drunk driver). This angers me.
My mother was killed by a drunk driver that was 3x’s the legal limit and also had marijuana and cocaine on his toxicology report. He died at the scene as well. I thank God for that as I do not think I could have found peace if he had lived. We were unable to sue anyone because the driver was also an undocumented illegal alien from Mexico that had been deported multiple times but continued to find his way back to the U.S. He had no license and the car was not his. We prayed heavily and discussed suing the owner of the vehicle but after some investigation found that she did not have any money/property that could be seized so it would have been pointless.
I also had a cousin and his fiancรยฉe that were killed by a drunk driver.
Please if you drink, Don’t drive…EVER!

No worries. I fished it out, stagemom.
So sorry about your mom, your cousin and his fiancee. It’s so hard when someone is taken away without being able to say goodbye and her daughter is so young. Kinda surreal seeing her pretty young face next to an obit.
I agree that it seems unjust that the drunk driver gets a pass from the paper.
Anyway, I promise I’ll change the topic for tomorrow to something more positive and uplifting (’tis suposed to be the season for joy! )but I just wanted to drum up support for Lee today when she’s going thru every parent’s worst nightmare.

nothing like an academic school activity in the evening when you were notified at 9:25 pm the previous night of the event for the first time … who does that?!

So sorry to hear about your friend Zingy ๐
I do like the clothes in the new crackers, I hope they come out soon & that I can get more points too, need a big sale as the Canadian dollar is so low right now.

zingy – i think rallying the “Webkinz community” to support her is even more important during this season ๐
i wonder if the driver is hospitalized? that i haven’t heard … if he hasn’t been booked yet, though, that might be the reason for ‘privacy’ although drunk driving is absolutely unacceptable – i’m always the designated driver because i won’t have one single drink and drive

I can forsee myself getting a license soonish since i have not made myself study enough yet, but i betcha several years from now id be the designated driver. I probably never will even try drinking. I don’t even know what coffee tastes like (yes i’m quite aware they are not alike other than addictiveness lol). I have had mocha flavored candies a couple times but thats it.

here’s the news about the accident which mentions a male patient being transported to the hospital
http://www.daily-tribune.com/newsx/item/4248-saturday-fatal-crash-victim-identified
this tragedy was caused by a senseless, careless act that could have been avoided. it’s not the alcohol by itself, it’s the drinking then driving that was the problem. ๐

Bepsy, you sound like me. I do not drink, smoke, or even “do” caffeine other than in chocolate. I drink tea, but the decaf kind.
In college after I finally got my license I was on everybody’s carpool list because they wanted me to be the Designated Driver. I got gas money and I was the one that decided when we left the event, no arguing about it…I drive, I decide when we leave.
22 Zingyginger said,
December 10, 2015 @ 10:22 pm
That sounds like a win-win, stagemom. Gas can be expensive and they cover it. They know they can get home safely and you get your pick of which party to go to.

When the loss is so horrifying nothing you can say feels right. I wish that Mom, either of the parents of those young people were’t going through what they are now and Stagemom did’nt experience those so unnecessary losses. I lost a childhood friend to a drunk driver she was 14. Too many of us have these stories. I don’t begrudge those who wish to unwind a bit with the occasional drink but our culture encourages young people to treat getting drunk as a right of passage.

good morning
i need to figure out when i’m going to wrap gifts & when i’m going to bake cookies … can’t happen today, Monday or Thursday … would like it done before Thursday actually … hmmm
maybe my chef kiddo will want to bake with me tomorrow and Sunday … wonder what ingredients we need that I don’t have on hand … *yawns*

i’m thinking about trying a different kolachky recipe because we can’t get the cake yeast here, and i don’t want to mess with having it shipped, but the recipe i have that doesn’t use cake yeast is very different with cream cheese …
i might try it and not tell my mother what i did, then get her to taste test it

does anyone here bake kolachky with the apricot filling???

December 11, 2015 @ 9:59 am
I don’t make Kolachky, but they look yummy. I do bake, a lot. This year will be interesting since I’m going to try substituting Splenda for sugar. I’m guessing the issue is going to be more texture/browning problems than taste…we shall see.

Those clothing crackers are going to get me in trouble…I like all the clothes!
Which I find it really funny I collect Webkinz clothes since IRL I am totally opposite. I am a shorts/jeans and t-shirt person and HATE when I have to dress up. And I hate clothes shopping even more!
