Lemme know where it is - I'll join you and get my other old lady friends

I've been in a lot of retirement residences over the last few years, looking for an apartment for my DH's aunt and then for my parents, and it's really something. There is one old guy to about twenty women. My parents are in a complex with probably 200 people....9 of them are men. One big hen party...the old farts stay up in their apartments, the women are downstairs shuffleboarding, doing aerobics, playing bridge. Great for the single guys, I suppose.... :lol:

No we have to return unused study drugs in order to pick new ones up here :)

You could auction off the opened bottles..."Got migraines? This'll fix y'up...we'll start at twenty bucks. Blood pressure's making your veins crack? Here ya go, and it's three-quarters full--ten bucks"....

And speaking of music, today feels a LOT like a sax day!!!!! (Boehv?? That's an A, not an E! :lol: )

...What does a sax day feel like, Tom? I've had tuba days (heavy, amusing, expensive), and accordion days (just want it to be over)....

She says "I don't care how they talk in Pigland" :lol: I was rofl!!

Unnyfay!!!!! :lol::lol:

Obviously a hoverer with poor aim . . . or perhaps in mid-hover, the purse she was balancing on her head started to slide. In an effort to keep her purse from hitting the floor, she lost sight of her target . . . so to speak.

Gad......rank amateur.......

So, today's flurry of excitement over reports of Sarah being pregnant leaves me feeling compelled to share this little story.

As you know, Jacquie and I run a retail store. One of our employees is named Sarah.

In mid-December, Sarah mentions to us that she had been feeling kind of yucky, lack of appetite and nausea in the morning. Jacquie jokingly asked, "You're not pregnant, are you?" She says, "no way."

Well, she went to the doctor, and, you guessed it, she and her husband are expecting their first.

Hmmmm.

Egads- first, sarah's pregnant then she's not and then Amanda's pregnant and then she's not but then reveals she's "trying" which would explain why she's so perky every morning!!!!!!! :lol: :lol:

My cat slept on my pillow between my head and the headboard all night last night....literally from 1-5:30 am, he never does that. I actually put my hand on him to make sure he was alive (he never stays still that long, he is only 2 and is still very active and playful)

I was telling my coworker about him sleeping and she said her cat slept with her all night too which is also rare, turns out it was a full moon last night...weird huh?

Dem meow meows is SMART. I think our female is a serial killer plotting to kill us all. Actually she's leaning over my shoulder as I type this and I KNOW she can read. :ph34r:

I really do (or did :( ) love Beaver Tails so I hope that makes up for my hate of Poutine and allows me to maintain my citizenship!

This actually scared me...I thought BEAVER TAILS? Must be one of the Canadian delicacies, eh? Phew!!!!!

[

:o BEV! Well I don't know about YOU, but *I* am NOT obsessed w/ dog nuts.....I mean, Annie doesn't even have any for Peter's sake.........

:lol: :lol: Angus doesn't either!

must say, NEVER In my life have I seen fries w/ gravy - - we eat them only w/ ketchup here - - and I must say, I was partaking in a GIANT basket of fries from DEDICATED fryer at Nepenthe last Sunday :):rolleyes:

OMG- is there ANYTHING that Nepenthe is not good for???????? BIG SIGH.

Susie, seeing how women, in general, outlive their husbands, we're all pretty much dying alone . . . that's why I have made arrangements to be committed to live in the same mental old age facility as my best friend. That way we can keep each other company and complain to each other about how our children never call and that the food taste like crap.

I'm coming too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I must clog my arteries it MUST be with double CREAM in some sort of cake!!!!!!!! :P

Agreed! But I must say my 2nd choice would be FRIED CLAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They do that there?? Can I bring in whatever I want and exchange it for something better?? I'm sure I've got some leftover stuff in the drawer and I can thing of much better drugs to have lying around than old antibiotics.

OMG...me too! I know EXACTLY what I want, won't take but a minute to exchange!!!!!!!

my ghetto arse neighbors kids (whom I had vented about months ago on here) are setting off fireworks in the backyard..lighting them and tossing them out their bedroom window....these kids are 19yrs old...dont ya think they are a little old for that?????

Scared my poor Lucky and he fled the room. Lucky loves crawling on my lap when I am on the computer (laptop) I think the warmth is what makes him stay.

Sadly, no.

Well, maybe for fireworks.

I have a couple neighbor boys who are 20, 21. I don't know how many times I am awakened by them doing something terribly loud in the middle of the night.

I so want to open the window and scream "shut up" or anonymously call the police, but I'm scared it will get traced back to me :lol::lol:

Morning Sillies

So remember how I was talking about the ghetto kids. I am leaving early today so John and I drove seperate cars to work. When he walked out to his car the gas tank was open. He said the car drove very funny too. There are fireworks all over the parking lot. We pay outrageous amounts of rent...I can pay half that and go down to the city and live in the same conditions...nuts! Our rental place never does anything about it. We were told they were moving out but it has been 3 months now and they are still there....I am scared to really stay there anymore. These people freak me out.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Yes. I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy. Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates did very little to help with symptoms

      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm. Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate...

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply. Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct. Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two...

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
