Okay you guys I have no screwy thing. Is it on the right side of the BT page? One says lower right, one says top right. I am totally confused. Can someone print screen with a picture of it?

[jingle]

Oh, that screwy/cog thing I was talking about is not on the BT page ...... it's on my computer screen. It's part of it, not BT. The same stuff is up there no matter where I go.

Chris,

I think that might be considered the upper task or tool bar. Icons on right for house, star, and then screw/cog. That's "home", "favorites", and "tools". It's the bar w/ the < and > buttons, then address space, refresh, the daisy wheel is at the far right of that one. If you right-click on that bar, another sub-menu comes down that lets you choose other tool bars to add to the top of your page. Above the tool bar is a space which tells me which browser I'm using & has the minimize, overlay, and X for exit blocks on it. Under that I chose to have the Menu Bar, which says "file, edit, view, favorites, tools, help".

Good grief, I really don't know all the correct terms for these thingys I see every day!

jingle, thanks for sharing your story. It must be painful even to tell about it. I'm glad you were able to get away.

lor, everyone's computer is so different from everyone else's but I can tell you what I'd do on my computer if I had your problem. I have Internet Explorer as the browser.

I'd find "View" on the toolbar at the top of the screen, click on it, and find "Zoom." I'd look at the % figures and see which one is selected, and I'd change it if I need to. I might experiment with zooming in and out while I'm there.

Then I'd go back to "View" and find "Text Size" and see what is checked. You should see a few choices, ranging from Largest to Smallest. I'd make changes there too if needed.

The % figure down at the bottom right of the screen is another way to tinker, as somebody has already said.

Aren't these guys something? Totally self absorbed and only think of women as servants and property. I hate the whole idea of marriage. I'm glad you're out. Good for you.

Lor, you just hang in there. John will put his dad first since he's in the hospital. we have figured out how attached he has always been to his father.

well now it's YOU that needs help. maybe your doctor could give him a good talking to? or the kids?

Jingle,glad you got away from the creep!

men get scared when they cannot control everything. and yes they are big babies in many ways. however there are some good guys out there so can't just hate an entire species based on bad experiences can we?

I'm getting a big kick out of the fact that more women are choosing not to get married these days. good for them! and don't even need a male to become a parent nowadays. my how times have changed.

PS,Lor been wondering if Steve & his GF moved into the house? also did all that cleaning contribute to you ending up in the hospital? well now it's time for you to get some of the TLC you so deserve!

[Barque]

Well, everyone forms opinions about things based on their own experiences, it's only logical. I can't base my opinions on men and marriage from others experiences, I am not them. I don't live someone else's life, I live mine and I am the only one that has actually lived it and know all the facts.

Sorry, I just don't buy the concept of not blaming all men for the way some are. All men have faults, it's just finding the combinations of faults that crush women evenntually into a fine powder. They all will do it given the right set of circumstances.

Buttons, Why do you ask about Steve & GF moving in? What did I say to make you think that? Just courios(sp) -- Sure John would put his dad first. I was just meaning that he sorta thinks I'm a kid & also no longer know much at all. Yes I forgot some things but just tell me once or twice, then I'll remember. Often soon as he/the person says "wrong" I say to myself "oh yeah it goes this way. I can't beieve I could do that. I learned that in kindergarten". You don't have to KEEP telling me.

Lor, if you go back some pages on the Emotional Support forum you will find where we were giving advice on how to clean the house Steve was going to rent.

you asked about cleaning products & safety. we were concerned you were taking on too much.

then you let us know Steve's GF was also going to move into the house & we suggested THEY do the cleaning.

that's the last we heard from you. you just went missing which wasn't like you at all since you posted everyday.

I hope this helps you to understand!

and I only knew you from Emotional Support. I've noticed you haven't posted there since coming back. now with the new format I see your posts in Chit Chat or Epilepsy so I catch up with you on those forums.

I think you are doing very well Lor! it will take time for your brain to function like you want. and since so many of us have brain fog or memory issues anyways-we understand!

PS I'm not computer savy or I'd pull up the thread I mentioned-maybe someone could do it for you? (and with my brain it might even be on Chit Chat?)

Buttons, Steve & his GF were cleaning John's sister's fatherinlaws' house . John's sister doesn't live here so they were helping her. The man doesn't have any family nere. The kids were doing the cleaning cause they were told they could have anything in the house. (The man died @ the house is empty). Steve took a dresser @ a few things. John & I are taking the couch & 2 chairs. When cleaning the kids found out that you non't mix CLR and bleach --- it put them both in the hosp. ( toxic fumes)
