I am changing companies to get fiber optics for computer and phone service. that means I need to change email companies, too. that means I need another email place because when you sign up for , say, gmail, they want an emergency email address to contact you if things go wrong.

Take an address book, and put in your passwords for each thing under the letter it starts with - ie "Shopping online" under "S" and put in your id and password.. remember to update it everytime you update your password, and keep the book in a safe place. Hope you get through the changeover ok - it isn't too hard! I have 2 AOL, 1 hotmail and 1 gmail account - not to mention the number of places I have logins for!! Sometimes I think my brain will explode! Good luck!

Oh, the oxymoronics of it all! Don’t think of pink elephants and a paperless society demands that you sign a piece of paper to verify it is you. The medicines of pharmaceutical patents do kill some in order to pass FDA laws of extreme double blind testing to claim ‘they save lives’. And a password like a car alarm does trip up more often on the owner instead of any bad guys. Testing 1-2-3. Yes, a password cheat sheet honestly declared is reality. So do not tell us where you park it, the car – that is. Go ahead mess away. We still love you. Just put a popular ‘back up’ plan into play because we are all human and more important details have the best location in our memory banks like God’s love and the familiar feeling comfort of warmth and security.

I have a personal account, and a work account, so I can keep my "stuff" separate. I have a folder in my personal account to keep all of my logins and passwords in so that I always know where to find them.

I use my name for business type e-mails, I will receive and something else, for everything else, I receive. So, that means to me places that close on holidays, have my real name, as does utility companiess and insurance companies I deal with. I use the same pass word for both.

I think it gets overwhelming at times, but as several folks say, it is necessary to keep a logbook of what you have logged in with!!! Just a fact of life. Report Inappropriate Comment |

I keep an address book next to my computer and write down the passwords in that. I can't remember all of them. I also keep a list in my purse for times when I am away from home and using my laptop.

I only have one on hotmail and that is more than enough. I usually use the same password for everything and I mean everything so easy to remember it is always the same but with a few variables so if I forget I know it is either or. I am not good at much on the computer only what I absolutely have to. I know I have an awful time with DH's pay statements etc. trying to get into them if you haven't for awhile so just make him get the info at work. GOOD LUCK Chris. Report Inappropriate Comment |

You could give fake emails when you create a new email if they insist on one and you don't have one. Then you change it later when you get a backup email. I keep my address book next to my pc and write down all my addresses as well as account names and passwords. I have them for 10 years or so now. But don't tell anyone. lol. You can lie to your computer but don't tell your girlfriend, whom you cannot lie to! Report Inappropriate Comment |

I do love my gmail. I have two accounts there, one for personal and one for business. Plus two yahoo accounts and a hotmail account. I used to have two others, but I've let them go. My point is, just open something! They're all free!

Oh, the internet can be a wonderful thing! But the passwords drive me crazy! I try to write them down, then often don't remember where I wrote them down. Good luck with the switch!

Without reading ingredients I bought a package. DH's PT suggested he replace his Klondike Bar with a healthy smoothie daily or at least every other day.
I had that on my mind and at a weak moment bought this product at the drug store.
It is essentially a thickener. I feel really dumb. We have to put in our own oranges.

Please don't beat yourself up, because we've all been there. I like the idea of blending Greek yogurt with fruit and juice. It's cheaper, healthier and tastes better. And the possible variations are endless.

Chris, cut yourself some slack. I hate it when food labels are confusing or purposely misleading. The other day I got so excited to see a "natural" peanut butter that was actually cheaper than the less-good for you ones. I should have been suspicious then. Got it home and husband noticed it said "natural peanut butter SPREAD."  Had sugar and other things not good for you. Not really natural after all. We've all been there.

I no longer have a blender since moving to my apartment but guess I should invest in one since smoothies are so good for you. My son makes them all the time using fresh fruit and they are yum! I've never heard of a smoothie thickener....

Try it with Greek yogurt since it is thicker and more healthy for you too.

Just FYI for you and the other ladies and guys..... many of the wide mouth Mason Jars fit on the Blinder Base so you can make it either pint or quart size without buying special parts. I have done that.... and i told my son he could buy Rootbeer for a treat but son is going wheat free due to his allergy... and Rootbeer has Careamel coloring in it which is often made with wheat... duh! hang in there!

i started having smoothies back in 1989, the recipe was from a diet called 'fit for life'. it is about food combining and macrobiotic nutrition, their smoothie is 1 cup juice 1 cup frozen fruit and frozen banana to make it creamy, put it all in the blender and you got a nice thick creamy milkshake consistancy drink. when i heard of people calling smoothies with yogurt in them i get dumbfounded. but that is me Comment edited on: 2/17/2012 8:36:27 PM Report Inappropriate Comment |

If hubby is unfamiliar with smoothies, this might be a good enough way to get him started. Real fruit smoothies are easy. You will find lots of recipes here on Sparkpeople. I think he has to watch sugar, but banana, Greek yogurt, and a few strawberries is great. If he is replacing Klondike bars, he will likely want some legal for him sweetener added. Don't beat yourself up, your intentions are fine. We all mis-read sometimes. It can be a tough sell to get our guys to consume something healthier.

If the idea still sounds good you could try making an orange smoothie with these TYPES of ingredients (alter as you need for your nutritional requirements): banana applesa uce nonfat plain yogurt vanilla breakfast essentials powder I end up eating a lot of smoothies because of my digestive problems and these are the types of things I use to make them. Play with ingredients and see what tastes good. Report Inappropriate Comment |

Yep, that's just a thickener. But I might actually try it as an Orange Ice Smoothie sounds really good, and my Smoothie attempts with fresh orange segments, and Low Fat yogurt wasn't very appealing. I have made them with OJ and Protein/Whey Powder.

thanks for the heads up on this one! I like to thicken mine with plain yogurt and oat bran but my DH likes his with canned milk.

I think we have all done that at one time or another..... What I do now is freeze my fruit for my smoothies. They come out thick from the frozen fuit and I know there are no chemicals or corn syrup or anything in them. I also add whey powder for protein so the fruit does not spike my blood sugars. I also use milk instead of water so if using orange segments, he could still get his creamcycle taste. Ask you hubby if he would be willing to make his own, and if so, keep a variety of fuit in the freezer and make sure he has a blender or Magic Bullit to blend in. Report Inappropriate Comment |
