Well, as far as Pepsi goes, I have only had a handful from drivethru/gas station this week......
but some of those gas station cups can be like drinking 5-6 cans
I'm on day 2 of NO SODA right as I type this craving water
Started making a flavored iced tea, but fam tends to like it on the sweeter side.
When I was craving that the otherday I realized it was the added sugar in it I was craving, not so much the tea itself.
So, I've been trying to make myself a batch with little to no added sugar.

Have you tried zero calorie, zero carb, 100% natural Stevia for sweetening?

It may at first appear to be expensive (I normally pay about $30.00 a pound for it, and buy it in that size [454 grams]), but it is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy sweeter than sugar, so you use far less of it I don't know if they say this any more, but they used to claim it had no after taste, which it does in fact, which is a bit like licorice, but I got used to it right away

While I was still working, that amount would last me close to a year for my morning coffee

I'm slowly switching to cane sugar, which doesn't seem to be affecting me, but fam still prefers white refind.
the zero calorie stuff always upsets my stomach as soon as I ingist it.
Trying to slowly ween off white refined, so maybe eventually I'll be able to tolerate other stuff better.

I prefer unsweetened ice tea but my wife likes it sweetened.

Many years ago while I still had a telly and DVD rentals were a thing,
I binge watched all of Boston Legal during a week off work

Apparently it ran for five seasons?

I have binge watched other shows as well

Like Breaking Bad Among others

Was it the right file extension, or maybe too large?

Gargantuan pictures are a no go LOL

And the reason why files are so large to begin with may have to do with the fact that
for printing purposes, an image file needs to be 3-4 times larger than for monitor display...

Because monitors display @ 72 ppi, sometimes 96... prolly most often 72...

Whereas for printing, optimally the ppi should be set @ 300

No, if you were banned you wouldn't be able to post anything at all. CC had been very slow for me lately. Like extremely slow. They're probably doing site maintenance or something like that.

Saw this today and made me LOL so HARD.

yeah, I was thinking "hey! It's funny that they show it with guys.... but sometimes I can be like that (especially when hubs is boring me)"
and then while laughing so hard almost when the female brain switched on! (Only mine thinks more along the lines of "if I put a load laundry in now it should be ready to go in the dryer by........"
"Uh-huh... yes dear, that CAN be frusterating"
"then I can run back upstairs, do some dishes, get xyz done, start dinner......"

are they personal pics or stuff from around the internet you are trying to post?
Sometimes when I try to copy a pic from the net it will say something about contacting administrator.

hi Ruby!
Is that your afternoon "pick me up" cup?

 

[Ruby123]

@Ruby123 Ms Ruby, I started watching two different shows on Netflix out of Australia

One is called Ladies in Black and has a woman in it who was also in Wentworth

I recognized her right away, though was not sure from what until I looked her up

She plays a 1950's mom to the young woman the show centers around

She was a real baddie in Wentworth: sweet and beautiful on the outside,
but treacherously evil as all get-out on the inside Very dangerous

The other show is called The One. It is a modern day sci-fi about
genetic testing to find your one true romantic love match

I am finding it quite interesting and have seen more of it than the former

Gee Magenta you have watched more Aussie shows then me lol.
Bangkok Hilton is a good two part show on you tube with Niclole Kidman. I dont really like her acting but she was good in this one. It is an old one in the nineties I think. It is an escape film.

hi Ruby!

not yet GG, just going to have one or maybe two now.
