I have safely managed to NOT buy a puppy today, so far. :lol:

and BTW I'm so glad the trash was picked up yesterday, the stench of rotting carcasses in there was just getting embarrassing. :lol:

but soooooooooooooozieeeeeeeeeee that's no fun!! :unsure: go buy one!! :D

:lol: :lol: :lol: what was the grand total??

awesome!! just found out how to do a spoiler

:P and i love how it just works around the smileys ;)

oh and if any of u are jewish, HAPPY YOM KIPPUR!! (there's another color associated w/judaism, right?? is it gold?)

Is that a burgling bugler or bugling burglar?

Pffft! :P This from the one who goes to bed at ....9sumfin? :huh:

Soooooooo, my interview was a breeze, as expected. I'm horrendously overqualified, almost even on a slow-brain day.

But part-time is all I'm ready to try.

Not sure when I'll hear back, but should get a better idea tomorrow. :)

it's a burgling bugler of course! ...... unless he's routinely burgling from Wall-Mart... :o *dashes off to check his pockets*

pffft urself!!! puhleezze :P *stereotypical teenage-girl attitude* i don't go to bed until 11:30! what about u? :P

and oh by the way, one does not "pffft" at his queen! :angry:

Aloof my arse........... :lol: The damn cats tries to eat me alive :ph34r:

so much for our 'rescue' cat.............. :angry::ph34r: I'll pay to ship him to ya.......you want a kitty don't you?

I know Judith's cat bites.....poor woman has to be mighty carephul in the middle of the night.

Maybe tomorrow I'll mosey on up to the PC upstairs and try the new phun psymbols. :D

Julie and other laptop users...........well, you're just all going to have to buy PC's now, aren't you, to join in on the psymbol phun. :lol:

:lol: I guess so, and a perfectly good reason it is to buy one!

I'm wichya Sooz--I'd pay darn near anything for the perfect hair product. I looked into Ouidad, and a lot of it contains gluten. Wheat must have some kinda magical effect on hair :lol: cause it's in just about all the products I'm interested in.

Basically what it's come down to now is something that lathers and doesn't make me sick <_<:angry:

Me too, or three. If I found something that tamed this mane I would drop, well pretty much any amount (within reason :lol: )

Bummer on the Ouidad <_< , Susie peaked my interest in it.....I read something about the wheat protein smoothing out the curly hair shaft er cuticle er sumfin, which is what we curly haired want, smoothness!!

I am forever looking for the right product :rolleyes:

:lol: :lol: :lol: This HAS been discussed here before, hundreds of pages ago........'tis one of me phay-vrets :lol:

TOM! This part-time thing sounds PERFECT !!!!!!!!!! I myself am doing a PT gig for which I'm overqualified - and under-confident. :( But - it's working out PERFECTLY and.........we start our grant-writing in November - hoping to WRITE ME IN for this job on a permanent basis.

Baby steps, my friend....... :)

and yes, I DO go to bed at 9 - sumfin', but don't fall asleep until MUCH later ;)

I believe he was fine once he started going to Janet's house.

*snort* :lol:

what was the grand total??

:unsure: of what? the dead carcasses? only two........... :huh:

and yes, they DO go pppffffffttt to the queen here in Sillyville. Get used to it. :lol:

and, for your FURTHER edification, the correct answer is 20. Twenty emoticons are allowed per post. Ptaughohgm was correct.

Begging your pardon, your majestical Majesty, but I was pftttt-ing Miss PseuzeeQueue, the early-to-bed one w/ the carcassy trash.

:unsure: Weezee is REALLY scared of big, mean cats.......Lauren's cat drew blood when it jumped on her arse................. NO BIG MEAN CATS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So no, Judith, please don't ship him to us :lol:

Bummer on the Ouidad , Susie peaked my interest in it.....I read something about the wheat protein smoothing out the curly hair shaft er cuticle er sumfin, which is what we curly haired want, smoothness!!

Julie, does the DRIED WHEAT product on hair make any difference? I'd sure as hell use it....... :unsure: Because, if it's DRIED, and it's on our HAIR, wouldn't it only hurt us if we sucked or ate our hair?

It has been a busy day, and when I phinally got on here, there was much catching up to do.

I hope I remember all the questions I need to respond to.

For those having trouble with Alt-7 et cetera, make sure that the <num lock> is on. If it isn't, strange things may happen. When num lock is off, the 7 on a the keypad is <home>. Some browsers (including Firefox) interpret <alt><home> as meaning, "get out of wherever I am, and take me to my home page." If you do this by accident, your <back> key or button will unto it.

Laptop and notebook users can access this functionality, but it is a bit awkward. Your numeric keypad is overlaid on the built-in keyboard. When activated, the keypad is formed by the keys 789/UIO/JKL/M becoming 789/456/123/0 respectively. Activation may vary on some models, but on most the toggle is <shift><scroll lock>. Activate the keypad, hold <alt> and type the number for the character, release <alt>. Enter more extended character codes, if desired, and the hit <shift><scroll lock> again to return to normal. On my ThinkPad, a light with the digit 1q inside an arrow is lit when the keypad is active.

I don't know where Emily's cursor went. Maybe Gus ate it when she wasn't looking. :lol:

My contribution to the menagerie is five cats in all, three at home and two at the store, and one fish. Each of the cats has, at some time or another been my avatar. Our fish is camera shy, and has never been photographed.

I'm outa here again--the season premiere of CSI is on in five minutes. :)

Emily 2 dogs

Laura 2 cats one puppy

Are there any Psillies coordinated enough to pull this off???.... . . . . . . . . ....sounds like that extra arm would come in handy. :P

The girl I interpret for joined a girls running club at school. She wanted me to stay after school with her.......it was quite fun. Don't know if I'll be able to get paid for it yet, but I might just keep going either way. I actuallyjogged walked tried to run ran with them. I can't remember the last time I ran....even to get to the other end of the hall......without my legs tingling really bad. I've also been playing basketball with the kids at recess! :D

They think it's a hoot! One girl was shouting to her friends that Mrs. H is trying to play basketball ! <_< ......I showed them!....My team won! :P

Hee hee, well I am extremely allergic to wheat and gluten and slightly to soy and since I have skin stuff going on I am staying away from anything topical as well with these ingredients.

      Hi Katie I am so sorry you had two miscarriages in the past.  Try not to worry, though, because it could be that they were unrelated, perhaps? Well done for contacting your GP.  Is it possible that you can speak to your midwife in the meantime for a chat?    Cristiana  
    • Katiec123
      @cristiana hi!  the things I’ve read online about having untreated coeliac disease whilst pregnant has really scared me and made me very hesitant to continue eating it. I feel like the best option might be to eliminate gluten from my diet now and then continue with testing after I’ve given birth. I’ve got in touch with my gp and am due to get a phone call back on Monday. Really worried now as I’ve had 2 miscarriages in the past 
    • cristiana
      @Katiec123 Welcome to the forum. I started to have symptoms related to coeliac disease (mouth ulcers, aura migraines etc) but no gastric symptoms during my first pregnancy.  That went to term, in fact, I was 10 days over and had to be induced.  But my second baby, born 21 months later, arrived at 33 weeks.  He's now doing well, and taller than all of us - it was just an earlier than expected arrival! I agree, it would not be wise to eat gluten  if there is any suspicion that you have coeliac disease during a pregnancy.   It would of course be good to know for sure, one way or another, because I believe coeliacs receive extra monitoring during pregnancy in many countries.   I think it may be well worth asking your GP if you can be referred to a gastroenterologist for a formal diagnosis asap.   By the way you spell 'coeliac' I'm guessing you are posting from the UK?  If that is the case, the NHS may rush things along for you, I suspect they will.  If it appears that they cannot refer you urgently, if you have the money for a private consultation it might be well worth it, as there is a trend here in the UK (I'm British) to diagnose coeliacs without the need for an endoscopy if the blood test results are compelling. Sounds like this is the case for you.  If you can see a gastroenterologist privately s/he might be able to diagnose you there and then (make sure you take a printout of your blood tests). Generally, there is a lot of support for coeliacs through the NHS, with a nutritionist, annual reviews and blood tests to check for diet compliance and health related issues, DEXA scans to check bone density, extra vaccinations where indicated and in some areas, certain gluten free food available on prescription.  So for lots of reasons, if you can get a diagnosis it's worth it. I hope all goes well with your appointment, let us know how you get on.

      Hi , since being gluten free I am still having bad stomach problems . Such as constant gas in my stomach 24/7 ,burning, constant bubbling noises coming from my stomach and gurgling sounds that never stop .Pain under the left side of my rib cage when ever I eat and just always there’s pain there  .  My symptoms have not improved at all since being gluten free.  Could this be refractory coeliac disease ?? How is that even diagnosed or confirmed  ?  I had tests recently and this is what they say :Endomysial abs (IgA) -Positive  TTG abs (IgA)U/ml : My result is : 0.9 U/ml The Range:0 - 10 U/ml What does this mean pls ??? How can I still test positive for Endomysial abs when I am gluten free and am very careful about cross contamination? Do I even have coeliac disease I’m convinced some other digestive disorder is causing these symptoms .   I also have not had a endoscopy and now the gastroenterologist calls me after one year ( I’m from the uk and have free healthcare which has been such a nightmare with all this and never help me  )  so as I am gluten free the gastroenterologist advised me to start eating gluten again to be referred for a biopsy .. Is a biopsy even worth me doing ? The only proof I have is when I was eating gluten I could never get my ferretin , vitamin d and folate levels up . And since being gluten free these have gone up a little bit  . But that doesn’t always mean coeliac as I know gluten stops absorption in even normal people  . Pls can anyone shed some light it’s much needed ! And share some advice or answer my questions above . I have no idea with this whole coeliac stuff and am very much struggling .Much Appreciated .
