I use Chrome as well. Usually never have issues.

I miss spoke, it's X-Finity that's causing problems.

Question... when using Chrome and when it suddenly can't do anything, is the site in the file box fluttering along with the cursor?

No, as you will see further along , it's our sever that is causing problems. My mistake.

agree with you, speaking of floods, we got warning floods for most of the areas around Houston, including Galveston. severe floods already in Louisiana.

Oh my, stay safe. I saw Louisiana about 6 A.M. this morning. So awful. They can't get a break down there.

I am still rejecting Windows 10, it is so full of bugs.

I'm not necessarily blaming W-10 on this, it's just that it started within a couple of days after Microsoft decided that they could just download whatever they wanted to my computer without my permission. It was permission by omission. All I know is that something is wrong and I am not computer savvy enough to know what to do about it.

Knock wood, we have a very very old A/C unit. It is beyond reliable. It is an old green machine like @JenniferS has. So not worth ripping it out for the energy savings vs cost of a new one since we only use it a few months a year and until this past summer, we had so many cool ones we chose not to update.

Ours is 17 years old. When hubby worked, I could go most of the day without air-conditioning, hubby has to have it. I go around in a sweater and he is comfy!

Hey, I've been having to go over my likes on here. They keep going away. And I have to hit the button twice, my apologizes if they don't appear.

I was 21 and hubby was 20, so I robbed the cradle. Ha! Hubby's parents had to sign off on our marriage. We just celebrated our 48th.

Congratulations, my Hubby is 57 years old so he is 4 years old than me.

Likely. We have lived here 30+ years and it was old when we got here. We've put less that a couple hundred dollars into it in 30 years. If we replaced it back then we'd like have gone through 2 or 3 units by now.

New appliances stink, oven, fridge, dishwasher, furnace, air-conditioning. They don't last long at all. My Mom had a refrigerator that was over 40 years old, and still running, when she moved. I hate the throw away society, and cheap, cheap, cheap, manufacturer's. They charge a small fortune and don't make things that last. My rant for the day! Guess , I'm frustrated with the like situation!

 

[betty rose]

So happy and excited for you. Hope by the time you hit up WDW again you will have a whole new experience. *happy dance*

I feel the same for you @Cesar R M.

Thanks we came home early, it's 94 today and just got too hot for us. I'm glad to be back on, and in air-conditioning after a cool shower, and fresh jammies!

It is actually reasonable here right now in the mid 70's and has been rainy off and on all day.

I believe I just may make BLT Sandwiches for the Hubby and I and a Salad for dinner.

My daughter made us big salads for dinner.

 

[betty rose]

Thanks

and I suggested it cause she has asthma and the smoke from the burning my mountains is making breathing at night horrible for her. My thought was A/C at night was better that breathing in that.

I agree. I didn't want to damage the A.C. Hubby says he needs it, during the day. We are trying to milk this unit out for a few more years.

Well for me it seems like it was Chrome's Flash and this site were not working together. Once wdwmagic told me to disable the Chrome Flash it is working fine now.

We put in a lot of insulation, so our house holds a lot of heat. We usually don't turn on the heat until it's in the upper 40's. Yes, it's cold in the morning, but if we have sun, the house heats up quickly with the fireplace.

I love my fireplace.

Yes. Known issue with Chrome. Not just this site. The embedded Flash that comes with Chrome is wonky as all heck.

Many of us had issues with the site about a year ago. My DD said it had something to do with the Ads and my laptop as it didn't have the same issues with my iPhone or my tablet. See if you enjoy your time with the site (I genuinely enjoy my time here.) I opted to go for the Premium Membership that solved my problems with the site, have no regrets. It was $5 a month. Well worth the entertainment for me. Others resolved their issues with the site with the membership, no guarantees obviously but it helped many of us. Others have not had problems while others did, it is strange but so far beyond my computer skills to figure out.

Curious what virus protection are you running?

I bought in too, for the same reason.

 

[~Experiment 626~]

My daughter made us big salads for dinner.

I made the BLT's and the salads as we were not in the mood to eat big tonight. They were good.

 

[betty rose]

Enjoy!

As you can see, we came back early 94 is too hot for us.

 

[~Experiment 626~]

Yes. Known issue with Chrome. Not just this site. The embedded Flash that comes with Chrome is wonky as all heck.

The weird thing it only seemed to affect this site for some reason. I never had a problem with it before I joined here yesterday.
