The Kitchen Table

Raven, are you locked out?

5 years ago

I have only seen one short post from you lately and you mentioned you had finally gotten in. I hope you are well. I'm sorry to call you out, but the KT isn't the same without you.

Sorry, sjerin, but this reminded me of something I've heard sometimes at speeches and presentations, hopefully never intentionally::

"If there's anyone who can't hear me, please raise your hand."

There are other scenarios, Elmer.

Some members have others personal info.

I think sjerin is hoping that someone can reach her.

Car locks you out ??
Q

"Hope my hint helps, most crooks wouldn't think to look under a license plate for a spare key." Maybe they will now? :) But you can be sure there's not many "secret" hiding spots a crook won't look. The license plate is a common hiding spot. Sort of the mobile "key under the doormat" (or flower pot) So be aware that you do take your chances if you do that. I used to keep a spare key on the vehicle. Whenever it had different keys for ignition and door lock I'd only hide the door key outside. Sometimes put a spare ignition key inside though. I haven't been able to get spare keys made for this one. Nobody has the right key blanks for it so I suppose I have to go to a dealer. The one that's supposed to fit it doesn't. Tried it at several different places. One guy who knew quite a bit of what he was doing told me it wasn't right but might fit and that I could try it right away and bring it back if it doesn't work. Currently I have one with the keyring fob with the remote control. It hit me one day how STUPID it was to use it like that! If you lock your key in the car, you also lock the remote in there! LOL How stupid! That's as dumb as carrying both sets of keys on the same keyring! So I took it off there and use a belt clip to keep the remote fob on me at all times and the keys are on another belt clip. If you unlock the doors on mine with the remote, you have a certain time frame to open a door or else it relocks. I think that is a good feature. It also will not let you lock the doors with the engine running and a door open. Found that out when I wanted to warm it up one day. I wanted to let it run and lock it like I always do with other vehicles but nope, can't lock the door that way. Nice feature in some ways, but bad feature in others. I'd like it better if it would let me use the fob to lock it but nope, no go. Oh well, stay with it when warming it up or watch it closely.

Raven - can you help?
Q

You can not put an old version like 5 of IE on your pc it is extremely dangerous and I really don't think it would allow it. What you need to do instead is go to the website for the product and find the new updates for it so it works with windows 8 if that is what your new pc is. Software manufactures put out new drivers and updates so that their products can be compatible with the new versions of windows. How old is the version of Picture it? it is from 2000? what version of picture it is it number wise 7? etc you can try to run in compatibility mode on your windows to see if it will let you do it. Compatibility Center check there to see what it says about the compatibility of it with windows 8 on the 8 forums site I found this comment so you may have luck with compatibility mode "I have just installed Picture It! 2000 on Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. I used compatibility mode for installation, and the program seems to need to run as administrator (just right click on the icon and select 'Run as Administrator'). Very smooth. I really like Windows 8. It seems to run lots of old hardware and software. Barry " How to Use Compatibility Mode on Programs in Windows 8 and 8.1 Microsoft Picture It check the answer there for more info.

Raven...are you keeping up with the Danes?
Q

Aren't they gorgeous! I can't believe she didn't have any harlequins. The spotted merles look like some of my past sweet babies. I had 3 gray spotted merles. What a pile of mantles. Wow. I keep thinking maybe one more is coming and it's a harlequin. Mom is looking good. I bet she is hungry. She would not eat yesterday. Birth what a miracle. It will be about 4 to 6 weeks before their next litter.

Triple lock security door. Can you just change out the door lever?
Q
Comments (5)
We just got a fiberglass Therma-Tru triple locking door installed. You have to purchase the door unit to get the triple locking mechanism which is quite secure❣️ Visit the Therma-Tru website for more information. Our expert carpenter loves these Therma-Tru doors too. I plan to paint my door when the weather is cooler.

Raven is pretty savvy around a computer, a few years back she helped me a few times on computer forum. We'll hope she's just busy and without anything else going on. I don't think she'd be 'locked out' of here for long without an equipment meltdown on all fronts ;0)

She seems to have been mostly gone ever since the big Texas freeze. That was when I noticed she wasn't around.

Yeah, yeah, Elmer. I thought of that as I was typing but I know the meaning came through. I guess I was just hoping she'd post--I miss seeing her here.

Thank you Whistle, I'll look.

Ok, now I see "Say thank you to (name)" at the bottom of all the posts. No offense meant but I find that a pain. I do thank you all here!

Hi! Thanks for thinking of me! I can only get in through a houzz url. Even my saved GW links change to the houzz url. It's very difficult and different. But I can get to here on the houzz link.

We are doing well thanks for asking! Lots of pollen hence lots of allergies and asthma but I am used to that.

One thing I have not been able to do is post pictures when using the houzz link so I haven't been able to post on the picture threads.

Thanks to Linners for letting me know!

You are welcome, Raven. I'm glad you got my email with the link to here and happy that you are doing well, other than living with the awful pollen.

After all of my troubles getting into kitchen table I was suddenly able to get in via another phone. My Dh's Apple to be precise. I copied and pasted the link and sent it to my phone and have been able to get in on that one since. I also was able to actually save my kitchen table to my topics as the follow button suddenly showed up again. :-). Here is that link. Not really sure if I'm helping anybody by putting it on again but thought you could give it a try.

Also Richard said that you are able to sign up through Garden Web again. He has a link I think.
