For @MOXOMUMD

I don't think I have to worry about that happening anytime soon.

The male hardly fights anyway, most of the fights involved are about defending the territory against other males.
The females are the active ones, specially at night.

And my comment had nothing to do with the male lions or female lions. So I'm a bit baffled.

Anyway, if you see videos of lion prides in the savannah.. the majority just sleep almost all day and hunt at late afternoon/night.

I'm sorry if I misinterpreted your post. I only meant good things so I'm sorry for any slight. Sometimes I post very matter of fact and can be interpreted as rude. That is never my intention. What I Do Think About You AND Me Is That We Really Enjoy lion behavior. I find them majestic creatures.
Today We Went To The Zoo AND It Was MILDLY Raining So The Animals were acting really different.
The male snd female lion were spooning!

Okay, some thoughts on Windows 10 now that I've been using it a bit...

Pros:

• Desktop to tablet mode: A very smooth transition. After being used to Windows 8, it was a bit confusing, but now I see the functionality of it more.
• Speaking of the desktop, using it with a mouse and keyboard is much nicer than it used to be with 8. It feels very intuitive. Nice that apps now run within the desktop while in desktop mode.
• Cortana: I find I use her the most when I can't find my app and/or am being extremely lazy.
• Battery: Now you can see how long it will take for your battery to fully charge, how your battery is being used, and more battery information and settings.
• Mail: Much nicer. Much faster. Like it much better.
• Multiple desktops: Possibly my favorite new feature. Much more easy to stay organized while working
• Action Center: Much improved. Good place to find notifications for all the apps instead of them disappearing into cyberspace
• Microsoft is listening to us! There is an entire area for feedback. You can make suggestions, and they are publically posted. Then, people can upvote the ones they like. I haven't written any suggestions, but have done a lot of upvoting.

Cons:

• Battery life on my tablet has not been as good. Reduced memory as well.
• Why did they move the personalization settings from Control Panel to the new settings menu? Freakin'. Annoying. And more confusing than before.
• Display driver has now failed twice. Probably will have to reinstall.
• Netflix tends to freeze
• Snapping screens is terrible now. Was much better in Windows 8.
• Sorry Microsoft. After IE, I don't trust Edge. Staying stuck in my ways and using Chrome.
• Some are reporting no sound after upgrading.

So should you upgrade?
There are definitely still bugs in Windows 10, but overall, it's a solid operating system. If you have Windows 8 and hate it with a passion, go ahead and upgrade now. If you have Windows 7 or don't particularly dislike Windows 8, you might want to wait until there are a few more updates. Like I said, some are reporting no sound, and there are definitely driver issues for some (like the display driver on mine)

I used Windows 8 on my laptop after getting Windows 10. That was when I realized what an improvement Windows 10 is

So we went to our Animal Services to renew some of our animals registration and the gal who helped us had this on the back of her computer.

I've heard of apple and pear shaped women but this? This is new to me.

 

[catmom46]

I prefer to use for what it stands for-- "be right back". So if anyone reads a post from me with I really do mean "be right back" not swearing.

Duly noted. Although I'm sure we could figure out what you meant based on context.

 

[catmom46]

How come b-reasts is censored but the t-word (which is considered vulgar) isn't?

Exactly what I was thinking!

 

[catmom46]

Told you, the block list was created by a British Nun.

In other news.. I had one of my longest naps.. dang! that felt good!

but also had some really weird dreams.
I'm really debating if I should just get a darn notebook and write all my dreams as soon I wake..

One of my weirdest ( 2 days ago) involved a Cargo sized ship (looked like a mix between a Disney Cruise Line ship and a long cargo with containers in the middle).. And There was a party in the middle while big storm waves moved the ship around.
I was to tell the captain something.. but I woke up when I noticed the Captain was Harrison Ford and the Staff Captain was Chewie.

You think that's weird? Man, mine are way weirder than yours. I always think about writing them down, too, because they'd make some very interesting movies!

The 2nd image didn't come through and the one in your previous post didn't either.

1 day until Friendship Day.

We are here until the 8th. I tried to upload a pic from my phone but it won't let me. I don't know what is wrong. Our first stop at Disneyland was to Trader dams, and we didn't get into the park until after 5. Now we are waiting for the new night parade and fireworks.

I'm having problems with my phone app too. It keeps kicking me off the sight and onto the advertisement page for what it displayed on the thread and no way of just going back. First few times I thought it was me, nope. I was able to grab a screen shot of it once though.

Here's how I would approach that problem. First I would clear out a space on my table (or desk) get out a pad of paper. Then make a list of all that needs to be done, pausing quite often to make sure that you are not missing anything. Have a nice glass of iced tea and then maybe some lunch.

After lunch, readdress the list and cross off the items that are not urgent and only in the beginning stages of disorganization. Take what is left over and attempt to prioritize the list in order of urgency. Take time out because everybody knows what happens to people that are all work and no play. TV is a good way to relax those brain cells to keep them at top efficiency. A reality show or soap should work to reinvigorate those tired old cells. That should take you to dinner time so put that list in a prominent place so you don't forget it.

After dinner is, of course, family time as well as getting caught up on the posts that you missed while spending time on your organize list. That should take you to bed time. Since the existence of that list will probably keep you awake, I would recommend throwing it out, burn it if you have a fireplace, and get some sleep because tomorrow you have to redo the list and you will need your energy.

Still too many steps.
Here's how I approach the problem:
Step 1 - Look at the calendar. Hope it's Wednesday. If not, wait until Wednesday.

No more steps. This was not actually a list.
