...Wow...so many additional things to do with tampons. Wonder how many of those Hallowe'en crafts would sell at the Church bazaar? :lol: Daughter of the Light, this craft site is a goldmine for keeping your boredom at bay!

Superfluous spelling: Yes, Tom, I agree, these U's are fairly silly, extraneous, and only serve to confuse when it comes to spelling and pronunciation. Leave it to the industrious Americans to simply say, "Wait! We don't need that extra vowel in there...Begone!" So Alex, in which part of our Fair Commonwealth do you live?

Sorry about the hair, Bev--I used to avoid the salon, too :( Good thing about hair is that it will grow and you'll have your ponytail back in no time B)

You're not interrupting anything, Alex :D Welcome--I'm glad you stumbled on us over here. It's a day-brightener for sure :P

Uh, yeah .... hubby travels ... I told him I don't want to see ear hair, excessive nose hair, or back hair ... take care of that when he's out of town! There are secret beauty rituals I have, he can have his, too.

Yes, we Americans are very efficient and avoid all that is superfluous!!! :lol:

Tom, you joke. You would be slumped, totally disinterested in our Ptaumfoolery had you been partaking the evil soy.

:lol: she said Ptaumfoolery !!! :lol:

Yeah, he'd be that grumpy old man who doesn't let little kids cut through his yard again ...

LMAO :lol: yup

And! I think those grumpy old coots would be better off w/ a change in diet!

Everyone has the capacity for happiness as a baseline mood, I now believe.

Used to just accept that my baseline was just 'bleh' - not happy, not sad, not angry. Just not much of anything. (And those were the good days!)

Oh well, at least now I won't be shocked when the kids come home from school with art projects of that sort. I can just see next years school shopping list from the school...16 count crayons, 3 no. 2 pencils, glue stick, 1 box Tampax gentle glide, smock, etc...

How about the Viagra cufflinks. A retired boyscout must have come up with those. (always prepared) A rubber in your wallet and the magic pill on your cufflinks. Very James Bond. :P

I KNOW that I, for one, am very intolerant of yeti meat. It makes me grow ear, nose and back hair but for some reason- it's BRIGHT white. Hmmmm.....

:) Hehe yup the Y is for yeast, tho I've never been a fan of yams. I mean . . . c'mon . . . the most common way I'VE ever seen them is w/ marshmallows melted over the top!!!

Just how distasteful must something BE to require such measures??

(Uh oh!! I hope I haven't unknowingly dissed yams in front of card-carrying members of Yams Are Misunderstood)

So I'll let the Y mean BOTH!

The S is doing triple duty. Soy, sugar, and Sweeteners of all types.

Come to think of it, the C is casein AND corn. And Canola!

It might get depressing to continue this game, so I'm done!!

Happy Hump-day everyone!!!! :D

Now THAT is another of the times I'm glad I wasn't drinking while reading. My sidekick (my lifeline! :wub: ) might die if drenched. :(

BTW, the secret to tender yeti is using a rotisserie, and overnight brining to keep it moist. Otherwise you may as well just make Yerky.

DOG AND CAT DIARIES

EXCERPTS FROM A DOG'S DIARY:

8:00am - Dog food! My favorite thing!

9:30am - A car ride! My favorite thing!

9:40am - A walk in the park! My favorite thing!

10:30am - Got rubbed and petted! My favorite thing!

12:00pm - Lunch! My favorite thing!

1:00pm - Played in the yard! My favorite thing!

3:00pm - Wagged my tail! My favorite thing!

5:00pm - Milk bones! My favorite thing!

7:00pm - Got to play ball! My favorite thing!

8:00pm - Wow! Watched TV with the people! My favorite thing!

11:00pm - Sleeping on the bed! My favorite thing!

EXCERPTS FROM A CAT'S DIARY:

Day 983 of my captivity. My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear I, nevertheless, must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them I, once again, vomit on the carpet.

Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am. Bast***s! There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs. I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released - and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe.

Bev, wouldn't you rather have short-thick hair than long-thinning hair? ;) I recently cut three inches off mine ... it was thickening back up ... I had lost so much of it with the Lyme and what was left was prone to breakage, so as the new, healthy stuff was growing in, it was looking bad ... about two more inches and I should be rid of the "bad" hair. Avatar was taken after haircut. I like your new one, BTW ... I think I remember it from before.

Richard, please don't go!

20 Ways To Confuse Trick-Or-Treaters

1. Give away something other than candy. (Toothpicks, golf balls, bags of sand, etc.)

2. Wait behind the door until some people come. When they get near the door, jump out, wearing a costume, and holding a bag, and yell,

oh - except that I am the crazy old dog lady hag who darkens the house and hides in the back room for halloween

me too. I'd rather give out candy, but it's kind of rural where I am and I sit around all night eating candy waiting for someone to knock. There are no streetlights, no sidewalks, and, being the northwest in winter, it's usually raining, or has just rained so only the kids who's costumes include rainboots are out on my street.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
