    LL – did you ask about helping paws rewards? yes, i forgot in that .2 seconds when I switched posts, but in my defense, my dh was talking to me LOL

    when you have helper accounts & they are very active sometimes you get a helping paws gift box AND some estore points

    yep LL – that explains it perfectly

    in ww & click on the My Pets (paw print by your pet at the bottom left)

    you’ll see the helping paws logo to the left below the “account opened” date that says You Have: 0 Helpers or whatever number – click on that, and it will show your code

    May 4, 2020 @ 4:42 pm

    naki – you have to open a new account or get someone to open a new account

    i wish they would have let us add them to existing accounts!

  15. 15 Naki (wwid: vastis2) said,

    May 4, 2020 @ 4:44 pm

    yeah seriously, I’m surprised I can even get into some of my accounts. but okay, I just learned something else so my account is completely “free”

    I thought there was just regular and deluxe but you also have to adopt every so often now to keep the account a “plus” or something. Meaning, I have to adopt a pet now if I want access to some regular stuff?

    Hey everyone !
    Naki… I have many of the helping paws items… I would be happy to send you what I have… My helping paws account is gagamurph… I will send a FR if you are interested … The items when first received come in Large..Medium.. and Small….usually…. floor/wallpaper and furniture come in the Large boxes…then room items…followed by the clothing items…. I think there is a list on Webkinz Guide if you want to see what is available….Hope that helps… I will send you a FR request.

    To have a regular membership you must adopt a new pet every year. A ‘free’ account limits your ability to play certain games, send kinzposts, etc.

  19. 19 Naki (wwid: vastis2) said,

    May 4, 2020 @ 4:55 pm

    gaga- thank you so much! so thoughtful I will add you!

  46. 46 littleleaf32 (ylime32) said,

    We have loads of aloe vera gel here, but no alcohol in sight.

  47. 47 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    May 4, 2020 @ 8:41 pm

    can you use cheap vodka instead of rubbing alcohol?

  48. 48 littleleaf32 (ylime32) said,

    May 4, 2020 @ 8:46 pm

    I don’t think the alcohol % is high enough to kill germs.

  49. 49 Naki (wwid: vastis2) said,

    May 4, 2020 @ 8:52 pm

    I have vodka from a bloody mary kit we got in a grab bag from Xmas that none of us will drink.

  50. 50 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    May 4, 2020 @ 10:51 pm

    According to the CDC, a hand sanitizer must contain at least 60% alcohol in order to be effective against viruses like the one causing the current outbreak.

    If making the spray version, you can choose a vodka that’s between 70%-95% alcohol (140-190 proof).

    But if you’re making the gel version of this recipe, you should choose a vodka with at least 90% alcohol (180 proof). Since you’ll be diluting it with aloe vera, it’s important to start with a high alcohol percentage.

    You have to use a high proof vodka. Regular vodka is only 40% alcohol, so you can’t just use any vodka brand off the shelf. But as long as the final product contains at least 60% alcohol, it’s safe to make your own hand sanitizer with vodka.

    DEE, yes you can use aloe gel. As to alcohol, must be 70 percent proof or more to work. You can substitute vodka or grain alcohol too!Most people don’t think about it, but drinking alcohol was one of the first things used way back to disinfect wounds etc. I couldn’t find even 1 bottle of rubbing alcohol anywhere! But my liquor cabinet had plenty of vodka ..lol
    You can also use sunburn gel which has some alcohol in it but needs more it’s right next to aloe gel usually. It’s basically same thing just different color..and yup, I’ve made it with both! If you can’t find any gel email me and let me know!

    Funny how you can find lots of alcohol at liquor stores…yet no rubbing alcohol in stores…grain alcohol is pretty high proof..but honestly, you coukd use any alcohol that is high enough. .only problem might be the smell….lol

    May 5, 2020 @ 3:02 am

    Moms just saw what you wrote..yeah it rots that the regular vodka is 40 percent! I have 2 big gallons of that. I keep it for making jello shots for parties…had to use my really good drinking vodka. ..which Chant was not happy sacrificing..just saying. Lol

    Good Morning All !
    Krafty… Nice to see you back !
    Chants…Love the wacky bowling statue… it is very cute…have been lucky enough to win a couple of them !
    dee.. any talk of opening the hair salons where you live ?? Our governor has made mention of salons and said he will be announcing soon when they will reopen… but then the problem becomes how long it will take to get an appointment ! I do have a previously scheduled appointment beginning of June but ………….seems so far away…
    moms… how exciting that you ds performed in such a grand venue !! I am sure you were and still are… beaming with pride !
    Return to work is going well…seems to be going smoothly and done safely..
    Department head stopped up yesterday… wants us to “ramp up ” numbers by the end of the week… She also made mention of cutting 20% of workforce system wide !!! Who knows where the cuts will be made or if they will be furloughing staff….
    Naki… tried sending you some things this morning … still no luck…
    Hope you all are well and sane !!
    Have a good day !

    weird………i see alcohol here and dh has a stash for woodworking stuff, he has to have the 91 percent stuff…….
    we also have tp and paper towels……….and meat, altho they were limiting it last time i went to store

    gaga – hair salons may be end of month or june………i have been keeping in touch with my hair lady………i do not have to be first in and i take two hours with all that foil……….so happy she will be able to make some money. last sundays newspaper was full of hair color coupons………ha ha ha
    and last time i went to the store, by the candy at checkout they had root touch up kits………..cracked me up

    good morning all

    gaga- went to bed before adopting should be all good to go here in a minute!

    dee- we are also not out of too much here, family up north is still having problems finding things and recently they said meat was the new toilet paper they could only find ground turkey.

    as for the hair, I’m very tempted to cut my own (lucky enough I’ve never colored). I cut my bf “T’s” hair last weekend. I think I did okay. It was so long and shaggy on the side, and not cute- I was supportive and patient and finally one day he was like “Naki today is the day”

    I will continue to add those of you who I do not have on my friends list, making a wish list might take a few days. I’m discovering so many things I’ve missed out on so I need to hone in on some things that I really like. I would love to return the favor!! Thank you all for welcoming me(back) with such open arms.

    One more thing EXCLUSIVE ITEMS!?? I have some questions:

    someone help me out- it seems like there are so many currently. I don’t remember so many being available at one given time in the past? Is this recent? I seem to know of all the retired ones with the exception of the bubble wrap chair, neogothic piano and a couple others?

    did they retire some and then bring them back?

    why are some worth so many more wish tokens? What decides this?

    basically (and feel free to chime in folks!)
    stuff retired from the token factory, there was a game on facebook called webkinz friends, that everyone loved, so they shut it down. the big high price items in the factory are prizes that we won in webkinz friends.
    don’t spend your tokens on them. i am sure we have enough.
    and prices went up cuz well inflation!

    Missed wishing everyone a happy May the fourth be with you yesterday!

    moms—Thank you so much for the names for the Tulip Ponies!! There is a tulip named Mariette and I was thinking of that, but so glad I waited because Morningstar is perfect!!!

    grandma—Congratulations on your soon to be born great grandson!

    gaga—How fitting your dept. head tells you to ramp up numbers and then wants to make cuts by 20%. Glad things are going smoothly and safely though. Hope you can get back to your four day schedule. Hoping our salons will open in June, but they still might not. Ordered a root touch up spray, works pretty good.

    Naki—I will send you a FR. We all love to help with WL.

    I prefer bows and sparkly tiaras to wigs as well.

    Glad to be home…. and tucked in for the evening…
    Naki… sent you a few items…from the Helping Paws Collection… Feel free to send me FR for wwi… gagagee… I have lots to share…I have been a webkinz addict since 2007… Started my nephew /niece out with a few pets… and the rest is history !! They have both grown up and moved on… I have not !! I referred to my nephew here so often…Love that kid so much… (Himself) just finished his first year at OSU… Niece graduated from KSU and stayed there to purse her Master’s Degree….I have taken over their accounts over the years as have many of those here… who have maintained their kids/grandkids/nieces and nephews accounts ! Would love to help in any way I can…. This is the best place ever ♥♥
    Cassie… I think you are already a friend on gagagee but I will log into the other account and send you FR…
    dee… I am too afraid to attempt to color my roots… I have waited this long ..
    I guess I can wait a bit longer… but barely ! Missed the governors update at 2pm today but will catch the news to see if there are any new developments.
    Sheeba…Not sure what part of the country you live… but hopefully your salons and barbershops will open soon..
    dee… moms will be so happy to see all of the flowers ! I think she loves to decorate with them !

    Busy morning and work day today, which hardly involved children AT ALL. Lots of paperwork, stressing about cleaning out my classroom, end of year evaluations, and just waiting around to answer questions about assignments and give feedback to kids via parents. I was not made for virtual learning

    On the bright side I’ve gotten really good at running since it’s about the only thing I have control of right now…

    choco- okay that makes a lot more sense, there are just a lot of exclusive items in general I’ve never heard of.

    QoS- yeah I had so much power with those clippers. the haircut turned out pretty well. However, I took the guard off when I went to clean up the side burns so he had to shave his beard and now he just has a mustache. He’s go with the flow and we’ve been together for 5 years. But his mother was not happy.

    april- thank you!! I will gladly accept your FR

    gaga- loving my new pet, I named her “Irini” which means “peace” in greek. (I’m half greek and speak greek) for those who are new to me.

    yeah gaga, i hear ya on the hair……..hopefully just a few more weeks……..i compare it to being stationed in korea…………altho, i just went to the px and bought color at that point in my life
    but get this……….dh was stationed at another base at the time, so when i went to visit him, i bought the color there and did it at his place………….

    naki – i clippered dh’s whole head, and the sides & back of both boys – i’m definitely not brave enough to go without the guard except around the edges of their necks & ears, but you gave me a good idea because i can’t get youngest to shave, so maybe if i “oops” & slip & just happen to mess up he’ll have to shave his face

    dee – you’re ready to be an empty nester again LOL

    moms- first of all, your boys are not allowed to be old enough to have facial hair!! and yes definitely did not mean to go that short I took the guard off to clean jt out and totally forgot!! At least it was the beard and not his whole head. Hahahaha

    dee- I miss the restaurant part of road trips too. We are driving up to see T’s parents for Mother’s Day weekend because it is a non negotiable that we be there in person for her birthday and Mother’s Day.

    We were just there 2 weeks ago and going back up again. Not thrilled but we’re running out of excuses because there’s nothing to do and nowhere to go!!

    moms- I can’t believe it. they are both so grown

    T’s mother? Can’t remember how much I’ve shared. And I’m sure there are even more stories since the last time we talked about it. at least I’m allowed to stay at the house now and he no longer has a curfew

  91. 91 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    May 5, 2020 @ 8:34 pm

    ROFL curfew – the last time we talked not here, you shared quite a bit – so glad she isn’t local!

    we are planning for college these days – dee is fully prepared with how much you are all going to have to love on me because i’m going to be a blubbering basket case

    May 5, 2020 @ 8:41 pm

    I think it hits only boy moms the hardest. Ya know- she’s got 2 boys too 😉

    Did I tell you how last summer T and I had been planning a trip for Xmas break- and had mentioned it to them. Then, mid August T gets told that they are going to San Diego. NO GIRLFRIENDS allowed. Just the 4 of them and the trip would be 9 of the 14 days we were off. Not including Xmas eve and Xmas day parents said he had to go on trip because it was a gift.

  93. 93 momskinz (WWID: momsownkinz) said,

    May 5, 2020 @ 8:49 pm

    NO! you didn’t tell me that! i can’t even with that! what are they thinking?

    they are going to have to stop making him “choose” or one day, he won’t choose them. that’s so unfair – she’s unreasonable

  94. 94 Naki (wwid: vastis2) said,

    May 5, 2020 @ 8:56 pm

    yes it’s very frustrating. August-Jan was a stressful time in my household lol

    her problem is that she tried to make it seem like she makes everything even Steven, perfect equal and fair. That’s impossible as a parent- not that I am one- but being one of 3 I know my parents give us things we need at different times. You can be equal with some things but not everything!!

    So then when she isn’t fair- she looks like a huge hypocrite. And don’t even get me started about how her and her husband are so much better than us because they studied Engineering(T’s dad actually does sales now) and Accounting. They told his aunt(her sister) that they wasted their money send T to IU to become a teacher.

    Meanwhile younger brother is going on year 5 of undergrad and is going to be so amazing because he is studying Finance and will most likely get MBA. Anyone in the family who doesn’t have a career she doesn’t approve of doesn’t have a “real job”. Her sister is a graphic designer and does a lot of sports marketing. She says she needs to get a “real job”

    Sorry everyone for the rant, I’m obviously not bitter….

    right!!

    as if finishing in 4 years, both graduating with honors, both of us worked the entire time we were in college, got jobs at 21, and successfully moved out and were financially independent.

    and nothing wrong with not doing some or all off these^ things at age 21/22 but definitely something I think they should be proud of.

    So after our helping paws discussion I made a whole new account (with a free pet) to try it out. Got my first package today with a 100kc coin in it. Probably never gonna log into that account again, but hey at least I got some kc out of it.

  102. 102 Naki (wwid: vastis2) said,

    May 5, 2020 @ 9:59 pm

  103. 103 littleleaf32 (ylime32) said,

    May 5, 2020 @ 10:05 pm

    I saw a comment about clothing not fitting in storage. Sometimes I have that problem but usually the wshop red lockers that fit 3 items work for the clothing that sometime “doesn’t fit”.

    Hey everyone, brace yourselves for update wednesday, because that’s what I’m doing lol. It isn’t exactly an overhaul, but there is a lot of work going into the picture guide at the moment to get some neglected or new pages up-to-date, and that will have to hit pause to make time for the new updates. I have a fair sized to-do list that will take a while. I took the exam I was preparing for last night and passed, so I have been able to chill out bit and start getting some of those things going which is great.

    April- Thanks so much for the dispenser/farm foods, I really appreciate it!

    yay bepsy for the good exam!!!

    we love you & your effort on the picture guide! you’ll see it’s been the reference i’ve used constantly helping naki get back into webkinz 🙂

    update Wed. looks exciting! i’ve been waiting for that to be the next post

    LL – the more active you are on the account, if you adopt, etc. the better your prizes – you’ll get that coin weekly if nothing else, but i get all different sized boxes & estore points (those make me SO happy!) did you add helping paws items to your wish list if you want them??? (sorry i haven’t checked yet)

  107. 107 littleleaf32 (ylime32) said,

    May 5, 2020 @ 11:03 pm

    Moms- Didn’t really want to have to maintain another account, would have been nice if I could have added the ones that I already have. Especially since they were creating before helping paws became a thing. I don’t have any of the helping paws items nor have I added them to my wish list yet.

    Naki – Herete! (LOL! I don’t know Greek, but my dh and I are watching The Durrells in Corfu and that word is used a lot. I’m assuming it means hello!

    I’m disappointed in the Helping Paws stuff. The most I ever get is a 500 KC coin. I thought I would get random gifts each week. Maybe I should add to my wish list….Or read up again on how to get better prizes. I am using a helping paws account that I made. I wish I had remembered to give my account code to the three accounts that I helped set up for FOUR family members. (well, maybe one of them was before helping paws, not sure).

    I just added the tween deluxe items to my wish list because I was not a deluxe member at the time.

    Bepsy – Congrats on passing your exam! And thanks for all that you do with the picture guide! It is awesome!

    Gaga – I’m in VA – Stay at home order through June 10th. Some businesses were to open up on April 23. Gov. extended to May 1st. THEN he extended to May 15th. The sad thing is that hospitals are furloughing employees and they are losing money big time! I have kiddos in health care (one at a hospital). So far, they have their jobs. But I have friends affected by this. The small businesses? Well, I can’t imagine how they will pull through this. That’s all I’ll say for now. I’m trying to avoid the news lately. goodnight. OR Good morning to you, Gaga. 😉

    Remember how I was shocked by the good weather the other day? It is now unacceptably cold.
    I think our stay at home ordered got extended through the 28th. Not sure what businesses are allowed to do because I stopped paying attention but my dad may be going back to work next week.
    I usually get a 100kc coin once or twice a week from helping paws. There’s only one account for it and it’s no longer used, so I’m surprised I get anything at all.

    Sheeba… I am hearing more and more about hospitals cutting and furloughing the employees…Our governor has extended shelter at home until May 29th.. but starting to open malls…next week…
    dee… Our weather is unseasonable cold ! Predicting it to be “unseasonably ” cold for about seven days ! I think they said the record for the last day of snow was May 10th…I think my Baltimore Orioles few back to warmer weather !!
    moms… thanks for the reminder for maintenance day being today … was wondering when the next one was !
    Gotta run but will check back later and read comments.

    Good morning everyone,

    QoS- Herete or Xairete in greek is a form of hello, I usually hear people at church use it. We say “yiasas” which is the informal way. MO opened back up on Monday, but my city and metro area are still not opened up. Which is fine, although all of our summer plans, and my seasonal job will most likely not happen.

    choco- our weather is actually now cold for this time of year too. Not complaining still in the mid to high 60s but sometimes we’re seeing 90 degree weather like we were the other day. Again I prefer 70 so no complaints.

    Going to adopt another pet on my side account so I can use that one as my side chick moms 😀

    Wed. are the hardest days to me work wise because it seems like they’re the least busy and that means too much time in my head and boredom. Therefore, I will need to keep myself busy-going to try to spend some time outside! Going to attempt to cycle about 12-15 miles today. Had to take some time off because my rotator cuff was very sore.

    I think that I just goofed. I don’t open my boxes until the end of the year to make sure I get one of each item. Is the Tween Theme for this year? I may already have it! I may have to change my practice because this is a bit embarrassing! I’m taking it off of my wish list.

    Best wed. I’ve had in quite a while. I was able to do my trial run of my sprint triathlon although I can’t swim right now, nowhere to do it, so I only did the 20k ride and 5k run, no swim!

    it’s funny – i asked if she wanted me to bring her anything specific for a meal sunday, and she said that they will probably have a special meal there. i called her back and said i’ll bring her a meal Saturday then

    i buy her lash boost every 2 months as my gift to her for every holiday – the only problem is sometimes i have to sneak in something else i want to give her, then she yells at me 😀
