Did anybody else think . . . Of course Emily has someone's ashes in her closet . . . almost expected!!!!!

Gawd, I realize that this does not sound like it could possibly be true...old Aunt Rosie's ashes in our closet. But alas, it is. Hmmmm....although perhaps I give off the impression of being one who would have this kind of thing happening in my household. Gaaaaaadddd.... :lol:

This summer! I've put my foot down! DH procrastinated about it all last year, didn't know where to put her, and it's illegal to just toss her, computer-like, out a car or house window. So she's going this summer!...Dunno where.... <_<

solipsism: a theory holding that the self can know nothing but its own modifications and that the self is the only existent thing; also : extreme egocentrism

my new faaaaaaaaaaaavorite word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Heyy!! I've given Susie her new favorite word! :D I love the way it sounds...comes trippingly off the tongue. Really love the adjective..."That memoir is sooooo solipsistic".....

I have decided that I'm just going to use Emily's quote and not even try to come up with my own sentence . . . I had to go to dictionary.com to check the pronunciation . . . I don't want to sound like I don't know what I'm talking about!!! :lol::lol:

:lol::lol::lol:

OMG...but Janet, I haven't read the book...are you sure it is, in fact, solipsistic? I can just hear it now. One of your club members: "Uh, Janet....this book is not at all centred on the self. No navel-gazing, here. Are you just using large, sophisticated words to intimidate or simply impress us? Huh? Huh?" ;):lol:

absolute GLEE in Dingoland over this, yes!!!!!!!!!! Um, I think that is the FIRST word I've had to look up on this thread.....

My....it's not THAT special a word.......is it? :rolleyes:

YES, she absolutely CAN. Legally, no. But who cares? Not planning on having any cops over for the burial. DH seems to have a problem with this...feels that she'll be pooped on and dug up by Gus and the cats (so what? She's rubble! Not like they're gonna dig up her face, or somefin').....And he seems to think it quite acceptable to leave her in with his oxfords and smelly runners...go figger.

Poor old Rose...DH's only aunt. She was a very English character....never married, no kids. Quite a loner, and quite eccentric...and her favorite relative was Will. Hence, the ashes were taken by us because no one else knew what to do with them. Well, neither do we. So, she'll go under our big chestnut tree out back.

Hey! Why don't we bury her with Nick the budgie, come spring in our schoolyard? I wonder if she'd like this... <_<:huh:

I think that it might actually be legal to spread ashes in Ontario as long as it's not in a public waterway. So the Rideau Canal is out but beyond that she can go wherever you want! :P (um . . . that may have been an inappropriate emoticon for the subject at hand :ph34r: )

Colin was up to playing a few low key Wii games today -- it totally wore him out but he was bordering on jovial at times! My dad gave me some roses from him and Colin for an early valentine's gift today :wub: and he made us a glorious gluten-free stir fry. It was lovely!

this strikes fear into Susie. :huh: I have no heirs......and now I am wondering if I'll spend eternity in such an equally ignoble manner, just sitting in some squalid closet of one of my nieces......

but then - oh wait.......I realized I'm not planning on being cremated. :lol: :lol: phew!

Did you really say that with a straight face and believe it? :lol::lol::lol: TB is my worst nightmare, gluten-wise. I think I get glutened driving by that place.

I've just been reading along, wanting to jump in several times, but not feeling particularly silly lately...

Susie, I :wub: the picture of Annie in your avatar, such a super model that one.

Something's Gotta Give is one of my top faves too, Jack Nicholson is so hysterical, and the scene in the hospital with his hospital gown on (and the backside shot), OMG that kills me! :lol::lol:

Janet, have fun with your Book Club, hope the cake turned out ok :)

Nikki, you must give me some insight, why do people HATE Heather Mills with such a passion over there?

Well.......I wouldn't say our closet is exactly....squalid, now. :rolleyes:

Actually, I'm feeling quite guilty about it all since we've been speaking about it. I'm looking around the house, trying to spot a place we could put this urn. Doesn't go with anything...

Okay. I will assuage my guilt by cleaning up our closet. Very good.

Why do I think you met him during a Moving Violation & the date was more of a 'moving his lips' violation? :lol:

I have heard of the chicken feathers thing.

Taco Bell

I can barely believe you eat there, yet were shying away from El Pollo Loco.

I guess so :huh:

I like her too, she was lovely on DWTS and over the years I have seen her on Larry King talking about the different causes that she supports (land mines, saving the baby seals, animal rights, etc), she seemed/seems to be a genuine person.

Patti, good decision! I am sure you are relieved to have made it so all can get back to normal in your kitchen :D

Emily, this makes me sound like an idiot, but what exactly is the Yukon race your SIL is in??

Good Morrrrrnin' Sillies!

Well, methinks we may lose an inch or two of this heinous snow today...bright sun and above zero. Fingers crossed.....

Well, a decision has been made.....(drumroll)....I'm going with an electric stove! I know you've been on the edge of your T seats so I wanted to let you know :lol:

Tom--it's the nice flat topped kind :)

That's exactly my stove, Patti. It's been great. All of your cookware has to be completely flat on the bottom, however, or they will heat unevenly and will wobble back and forth quite maddenly. Dunno if I've come up with any culinary masterpieces using it, but this surely has more to do with ME than the stove itself. <_<

I like her too, she was lovely on DWTS and over the years I have seen her on Larry King talking about the different causes that she supports (land mines, saving the baby seals, animal rights, etc), she seemed/seems to be a genuine person.

OMG.........

I did not want to mention my take on Ms. Mills, but I just cannot help myself at this point.....gaaaaaahhhhhhhh.....misinformed, combative, immature, at times imbecilic....

(catching breath).... We are not to dally in political fodder here, so I shan't elaborate, I'll just say that she made an absolute FOOL of herself on Larry King and everywhere else in the press, where Premier Danny Williams tore her to shreds over every fact she falsified and butchered. Boy, did they need to do their homework before taking on the seal hunt. She and Paul were right out of their league....

Pardon me!! Back to silliness:

Emily, this makes me sound like an idiot, but what exactly is the Yukon race your SIL is in??

Oh!! SO exciting!! This is the longest, most gruelling race in the world...makes the Iditerod look like a stroll in the park. Year-'round training, millions of dollars in corporate sponsorships, and big money for crossing the line first. Very few women have attempted this Sisyphean feat, and I believe Michelle was the first woman to crack the top ten, last year. She did it in thirteen days.....that's in 21 hours of darkness, -40, over mountain passes and across frozen lakes, with just her and her soul mates--her fourteen beautiful huskies. Unimaginable!

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.
