FYI: JavaScript vs. Java
 
Hi MrsD and EVERYONE,

I was confused by the post about Java, since the threat I encountered had to do with JavaScript.

Java is not the same technology as JavaScript.

Java is huge security risk these days. I no longer even keep a Java Runtime Environment (JRE), either standalone or as a browser plugins. This is the entity that has all the holes/risks.

Issues that affect JavaScript are a whole other kettle of fish. JavaScript is not handled by the Java Runtime Environment, and does not present the same risks.

I have been posting more from the perspective of your being able to get help in interacting with your hubby because of my impression that he is not receptive to seeking help for himself. I apologize if that was a misconception.

Waves,

This is exactly correct. Hubby is not aware of any problems and is not motivated to change.

I do think I could learn ways to make my interactions with him easier. In other words, I wish I could talk to an expert and come up with a plan.
There is a chance that hubby might be willing to accept some aspects of my plan for him --- esp if he does not have to go to any appointments.
He was in therapy a while ago (10+ yrs ago) and got help with life stressors and with family and parent issues.

I turned on the blender and my stuff went everywhere because I had not properly attached the vessel with the stuff to the bottom of the machine that spins.:confused:

ACCCCKKKKKK!!! :yikes:
Your ingredients would have made a really awesome smoothie, Mari!
I'm sorry you didn't get the chance to enjoy it! :(

So on Sunday, hubby and I cleaned the fridge and organized it a bit and made plans for him to do all the main shopping and cooking.

If I can get the two of us to communicate and plan better, I can drastically reduce my time in the kitchen -------
. . . . . . it is hard for me to pay attention and I get stressed and he would rather be handling the tasks anyway.
This plan sounds like a win/win to me! :)

His recipe was pretty close to the one in the link. He did not use any meat and he was probably heavy on the sour green grapes. It was fabulous.

LINK: [post with FULL RECIPE, incl. instructions]
"1 pound (450 grams) lamb or beef
8 small eggplants
2 medium onions
5 small tomatoes
2 tablespoons sour grapes
1/2 teaspoon saffron or turmeric
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
9 tablespoons cooking oil"
It does indeed sound fabulous! :) Sometime, when I get the chance to cook just for myself, I'd love to try this.

I do have a question though. Are the "sour grapes" regular, green vine grapes that are not fully mature or some other fruit?

Yes. They are immature, not ripe yet.

Stressed!
 
I was calling my insurance company to check on the therapist tonight and found out that I might not be covered at all!
The insurance people will "research" whether I am insured and get back to me tomorrow.

I should have dropped off my 'scripts from the pdoc and had them filled over the weekend.

And I cannot cancel the new pdoc appt because I do not have the phone number.

I missed two days of sleep.

Lost the prescriptions
 
I cannot find my prescriptions from the pdoc!

They are not in my purse and not in my wallet. I only carried my purse and umbrella to the appointment.

I am wildly stressed.

Oh my goodness! :eek:

I am sorry this is happening to you, Mari.

I hope they determine you are insured and that they let you know quickly, so you can relax!

I hope you can find some way to get sleep tonight. :Heart: :hug::hug::hug:

waves

p.s. Thanks for letting me know about the grapes.

Dear Mari,

I think one of two things is most likely:

1. They are in your purse somewhere, stuck between documents or in a compartment you didn't check.

2. They are in your apartment somewhere. If you've checked the purse scrupulously (dumped everything out, etc.) you probably took them out and set them in your apartment somewhere.

I can also see two less(?) likely possibilities:

3. Could you have set them down in the car "temporarily"?

4. Could you have set them down at the pdoc's office before leaving? ... Did you have to go to the desk again, after the pdoc added the verapamil script to the others?

Try to hang in there. You will be able to find them.
