Positive Affirmations round 4 - Completed

@Kwality570
I am attempting to add users to the Q messages I’ve been sent but the system is not allowing me to perform the action more than a handful of times in a row. Maybe Mods have more permissions to do this as it’s how I have been added to partner Qs in swaps I have participated in.

In any case, this is creating a bit of difficulty in sharing Qs. I’m at work with limited access to copy and paste. The system says I have to wait 23 hours to try again, lol.

Flagging this in case there is a setting that can be tweaked to allow organizers to do this?

Partners, I have matched you up at the top of this thread. I’ll do my best to get Qs to you, it is a challenge :stuck_out_tongue:

ETA, I’ve tried to get all the Qs to everybody, please double check that the partners you are matched up with in this topic are the same Qs that you received in messages from me?
ORGANIZATIONAL REQUEST: PLEASE START YOUR OWN MESSAGES WITH EACHOTHER THAT DON’T INCLUDE ME! Thank you so sooo much! It is so hard to organize messages without folders, lol. Please help me keep my inbox tidy so I don’t miss anything.

You are all the BEST! Have fun and happy crafting :slight_smile:

Also, positive affirmation for today:
You can do hard things!

I do know that I can do extra stuff in messages like editing a subject line, so it would make sense that I have no limits on adding participants. I’m sure it’s there a deterrent to keep people from spamming others.

I don’t have any access to make any adjustments on the back end of things to allow you any additional permissions. The only thing I can suggest in the meantime is this: Reply to everyone’s questionnaire with their partner’s name and ask them to add that partner to the message.

Sorry I can’t be more help!

Thanks for checking things out. I copy pasted everything everywhere and hopefully in the right places. I got error messages there too though for pasting the same Q 3 times.

I’m so excited for my partners!

Such wonderful partners! I have so many ideas, so I need to focus on one partner at a time to narrow them down!

Have fun, everyone!

Ah!!! That’s so good.

Dang! I already forgot the cool.affirmation I saw at an art store an hour ago. sad face

A good thing that happened to me this week? I have the week off work! (No plans. I never got around to actually planning anything other than “have to use up paid vacation days”) that being said - there’s a small business shop hop bingo happening this month. I hit half the stores today. Have I think 5 more I’ll hit between now and Sunday, then I’ll have a blackout and entry to 12 raffle baskets. I’m excited about that (I won 3 raffles last year)

My great niece came to visit between college courses today. I left PA when she was 14 so I didn’t really get to know her that much, besides, what teenager wants to spend time with an older adult? She was a delight…talkative, insightful, excited about becoming a nurse, etc. I gave her a key to my house so she can drop in whenever she wants to take a nap, grab a bite, study, visit, etc. She was excited by that as well!

Today I found the picture frames I was looking for when I visited thrift stores! I just need to clean them and add hangers to the backs. :slight_smile:

I’m looking forward to going to yarn group tomorrow - it’s nice to craft with other people. And I might stop by the shelter to pet cute kitties after. :black_cat:

A good thing that happened this week: I improvised a recipe and it turned out yummy. (It so often goes the other way when I go off script.) I found two condensed soups at the grocery store - Cream of Poblano Pepper and Cream of Chicken Con Queso and I decided they’d make a great quick soup base. I tossed them together with some other ingredients to make a quick and delicious Cheesey Chicken Enchilada Soup. In general I try to use fresh ingredients, but sometimes quick and easy is what the evening calls for.

Quick & Cheesey Chicken Enchilada Soup:
1 can Cream of Poblano Pepper*
1 can Cream of Chicken Con Queso*
1 can Red enchilada sauce
1 can Rotel, undrained (diced tomatoes and green chilis)
2 cups whole milk
4oz White Con Queso Velveeta cheese
1 cup cooked corn kernels
2 cups diced, cooked chicken (can use rotisserie if needed)
1 cup cooked black beans (or canned)

Add all ingredients to a medium size pot, bring to a low boil and stir until cheese is melted. Serve with fresh flour tortillas for dipping.

*You can substitute regular cream of chicken instead and/or a cheese soup base. To keep the spice if substituting, add 4oz green chilis and 1/2 tbsp chili powder.

On the schedule for the week - excited that my mom arranged to have our cars washed tomorrow! I’m super bad at not doing it myself and I know a pro will do an excellent job - now I just have to clean it out today in preparation! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

My good thing this week is that I moved to a new desk at work. It seems trivial, but it’s in a better location with more light and positive people and is making me feel renewed. :slight_smile:

That sounds great! I know my mental outlook would be much different (in a negative way) if I shared office space with some specific folks at my work. . .

I did end up visiting the shelter and saw many adorable cats. This pair of tuxedo kittens was especially cute - I’m not sure which is which, but one is Mac (boy) & one is Cheese (girl)!


(I love food names for pets - they’re so silly)
