A UNION SUIT!! :lol: What a perfect name for such an article of clothing! Sounds very pserious, and warm, and comforting . ...

The outdoor game on Jan1 was on and the playoffs get some nat'l tv, but even ESPN gave up on it and THEY air ppl PLAYING CARDS!!!!!! :blink::blink:

:lol: I know - -'Tis astonishing what can be found on the big American sports channels... . . Texas Hold-em, snooker, fishin' by the side of a river.. . ...

Actually, I saw an American sports broadcast of a bowling match not long ago - -men in their team uniforms, bowling balls with their names on them. . . . . . I could not stop watching. . . . . .. :huh::lol:

Sillies! I am waaaaay behind, so just jumping in here........

Just had my third brand of absinthe, over at Gail's.

Glad you brought absinthe up, reminds me of something I came across recently that made me think of me Sillies:

A movie that is in pre-production called the Open Original Shared Link

Plot summary-

Paris. 1889. Isolated by the language barrier and French elitism, a tight circle of eccentric foreign artists known as "Les Absintheurs" (The Absinthe Drinkers) settle in decadent Montmartre at the height of the Impressionist movement. When the young German painter Artemisia von Rach arrives from Berlin to attend the conservative Women's Academy, the Absintheurs immediately recognize her immense talent and she is welcomed into their clique. Artemisia quickly discovers that chauvinism, bitterness and jealousy run deep within her new friends and she is soon dragged into their world of debauchery and drug addiction even as she takes on their twisted lifestyles as subject matter. As the intimate circle of friends relocates to their spiritual home of Florence, their journey descends ever deeper into the occult, opium, and murder, culminating in an unthinkable betrayal.

(notice the use of debauchery, and I particularly liked the word absintheurs :lol::lol: )

FABULOUS knockers!!!!

I am MOST excited!!! Kids back to school tomorrow!....and AT LAST t'is Twelfth Night tomorrow so The Twa shall be very busy helping me take down the tree and decorations :D

Nikki said fabulous knockers :lol:

Yay, kids back to school and all back to normal tomorrow!!

I took down Christmas yesterday (I striked it down? struck it down? as Jess would say in theatre lingo :lol: ) um, total PITA and backbreaking work, took me all day. BUT, I took the extra time to pack it away in an organized manner which will make it easier for next year so I am pleased........but would have liked some Twa help <_<

A tummy tuck and gnu gnockers in one fell swoop?? Brilliant!

:lol:

Just so it be known, not ALL American favor this type of "sports" programming. :lol:

I do have to say I looked up the Jr Hockey playoffs to see if they would be aired and they were. They were showed on The NHL network on digital cable.

Good to see you posting Tom!!

Mornin', Psillies!

Gads, this big, heinous mass transit strike is STILL going on here in Ottawa - - the union has been forced by the federal government to allow their members to vote on the last city offer by Jan. 9th......hopefully they will vote it through. Traffic is gridlocked, parents are scrambling to get their kids to school...... . . ..yuck.

Jeea-nut's back! :)

Hey! Jess... . .I think Ptaoughmghmn knows how to play that song on his gee-tar, if memory serves me. . . .....

MIL leaves on Wednesday. Can you believe that she is still here?

She has taken The Ripper on an outing to a couple of museums and a lunch somewhere. She was waiting for him in the car, and he walked out to the driveway wearing his bike helmet and padding, readying himself for time on the road with her at the wheel. I yelled at him and he came back inside. . . . .

Gad, I probably should have let him wear that stuff. . . .. . . ....

He should be home in an hour or so....... . .. . ..

I wonder if she would have laughed had she seen Jack in his protective gear? I do not believe so - - 'tis not a phunny subject for her.

Nor for the many drivers/pedestrians she has undoubtedly hit.

The body shops love her, to be sure. . . . . . .... <_<

I would love to be on a jury, but I doubt it'll ever happen.

Pull the GI card. Tell them you explosive diarrhea and may have to run for the bathroom without warning and could you please sit near the door?

I read this and thought- huh :huh: Pretend Susie's a soldier :wacko:

SILLIES I have discovered the most phab new shampoo - - seems to be entirely free of gluten also. It's now at Walmart, L'Oreal EverPure Sulfate-Phree ColoUr Care System - - sulfate/chemical/salt free, in sets of 3 (shampoo, conditioner, deep masque) marked down from $10 to $5. I read about it on MakeupAlley.com and went straight over to The Walmart. :lol: LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

(speaking of POSH, am burning large Vanilla candle here too, Nik) ;)

I just bought the SAME stuff!!!!!!!!!! Me hair feels so soft- I'm growing it out so the longer it gets the more conditioner it needs and this stuff ROCKS!!!!!!!!!

Susie- your shrine to Tika sounds so beautiful :wub: :wub:

:o :o

A tummy tuck and gnu gnockers in one fell swoop?? Brilliant!

:lol: :lol: Good for her Janet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I throw my old lipsticks in my various bags and use them as lip balm. It's ok to have neon pink lips at the grocery store, isn't it? :ph34r:

Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

So, here we are with perky ears :lol: . I think I will also look for this stuff. My hair is still really dry and brittle and breaking off :angry: . It used to be so silkee-softee longee, before this terrible last dance with Celiac. Been wearing it very very short (say...did you just call me sir?), so it doesn't look so bad (please tell me it doesn't really look bad :o ). Am trying to decide lately what to do with it. Grow it? Cut it again? So it's growing by default because I can't decide!

Glad to read you all.....hope all is well in Psillyville :)

I useEcover Chamomile dish soap for shampoo (very cheap!) And Nature's Gate henna conditioner. Seems to work quite well for me! I haven't cut my hair in two years, hardly any split ends. A bit uneven, I'll grant..... <_<

      Thanks @Scott AdamsYes I alternate between forms just to experiment. I definitely agree that there are probably a variety of nutrients I am probably lacking too. I forgot to mention @Sultana that I also experienced symptoms of acidosis that resolved with continuous thiamine supplementation- my bloodwork showed slightly elevated anion gaps (sign of acidosis) and elevated lactic acid (same) and was experiencing shortness of breath, tachycardia, etc that was dismissed as anxiety as it wasn’t off the charts enough… (I too went to the ER bc I felt so awful). When I was discharged home, I took the b1 and symptoms resolved.. After researching, I found studies by Dr Constantini with high dose thiamine for fatigue in IBD. (He did studies for many chronic diseases which were ameliorated by “high” dose b1). I’m not sure how reliable it is but I’ve read a lot of articles by Dr Lonsdale formally of the Cleveland clinic who did a lot of research into thiamine- apparently the sulfur component of thiamine promotes the excretion of metals ( whether good or bad, so manganese might be effected)… id like to cover my bases with a multivitamin but they usually make me feel off( Its a rabbit hole trying to find a good one - I know I don’t tolerate methylated forms and there are many variables it’s hard to narrow it down…) I take breaks with b1 too when the effects wear off but have come back to it repeatedly with renewed symptom relief. I’ve started to monitor my blood glucose at home too and it definitely lowers it.

      @gameboy68   First, it looks like you do indeed have celiac disease, and a follow up with a gastroenterologist would seem to be in order. Many on these boards will draw your attention to the B12 and D3 levels. While those are important (you may have macrocytic anemia, often caused by low B12), what strikes me is your low sodium level. Your potassium is low, too, but for me, while yes, concerning, not as concerning as that low sodium. You need to follow up with your primary care provider about those two electrolytes. Often, if people are on certain blood pressure medications, those two numbers (those of sodium and potassium) bear monitoring. [Going back to read your OP, it may be loss of content from the GI tract, but I'm just speculating.] A good doc will repeat the labs (in the second batch) to verify that indeed they are accurate, and it's not lab or collection error. If they repeat, then your doctor will drill down to the cause. Please do follow up. Plumbago

      Hello @brian1 I'm a UK based Moderator here on the forum.  If you are British, you may find that in your region you might be able to get certain gluten-free food (usually staples like bread) on prescription.  I recommend you ring Coeliac UK for the most up-to-date advice on this. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/home/ There is some advice here for UK coeliacs which might also be of use, on how to best navigate the gluten-free diet on a budget. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/living-gluten-free/the-gluten-free-diet/gluten-free-diet-on-a-budget/ I am afraid I don't know anything about the benefits you mention but maybe the charity can help?
