We have a big walk-out deck that is a little more than five feet above grade. Our cats are allowed out there with some supervision. I'll share some pictures with you.

Great setup peter. Is Riley on a leash?

Tom, you'll love this . . . Navie is short for Navier-Stokes.

:yay: :D:lol: but :huh: .. ...don't recognize Navier-Stokes <some nagging thoughts of Stokes solo tho>

so I'm off excited to google a math adventure!!

Ahhhhh as a doubleE, never took Fluid Mechanics.

Suprised there's no electrical analog like springs & inductors.

Her name was Cori . . . short for . . . Coriolis :lol: . . . I used to tell people that she chased her tail counter clockwise above the equator and clockwise below the equator . . .

:lol: :lol:

I was daydreaming of The Real Thing last week!!!!

Haven't had a Coke in 3yrs I bet.

Coke vs. Pepsi anyone?

I just realized that if I got these two beasties I'd have Lyle, Max and Lefty. Sounds like the beginning of a Bronx baseball team.

Mostly a Pepsi household here, but if I'm going to have soda with sugar, I'll pick Root Beer.

Ohhhhh.....

Elsie is really limping. Having trouble with the stairs at times, and very stiff upon rising from her bed. She goes for her checkup tomorrow, but I just do not feel good about this.....

...symptoms of hip dysplasia.....

Poeter DOES have some phine decking and phoelines........Peter, is Riley a Russian Blue? absolutely gorjuss...........

No, we think she is a Korat. She doesn't have the double coat of a Russian Blue. We don't know for sure since she was rescued.

Great setup peter. Is Riley on a leash?

In that picture, she is. For the first while we had her on a tie-out until we were sure she would not go over the top. She was still a kitten (the pictures I shared are three years old).

:lol: :lol:

Hip dysplasia in a one-year-old dog? Not a good thing at all, methinks. :(

:( Pseriously. Horrible day.........a day when you wish you had something like.......LSD? to take yerself away from yerself. :lol: Or......maybe someone would conk you in yer noggin and you could.....pass out er sumfin.

And then - OMG - :o A job as a proofreader has come up. Full time, that is the only heinosity of it.

Now, I have only two inarguable skills. One is for language/reading/spelling/proofing - I have an eagle-eye for mistakes and nothing - I mean NOTHING - gets by me. True story. My only other innate skill is coloUr identification. Taht's right. So - I could work in a paint store (yawn) or, be a proofreader and feel confident of my skills and not PHREAK OUT w/ the usual panic that I don't know what in hell I'm doing (welcome to most of my employed life - heartbreaking <_<:( ).

So, this job comes up - they do not come along often - and I have spoken w/ the gal at the personnel agency. Lovely conversation but I now have knots in my tummy. Oh, wait, I had those before. :huh: So........the job's full time, 8 to 5, and that makes me feel sick........but I could DO the job, and make a decent income, which means a new car and actually not being completely destitute. oh, and having an actual ANSWER when the dreaded "what do you do" question comes up. And less time on my hands to squander (less silly time, of course :angry: ) and.........a great boost to my self-esteem. That is important to me. And feeling like I'm not just here taking up space on the planet.......

Okay......but it also means.......arising at 6 a.m. and showing up somewhere at 8, tummy problems or no. Off hours involve cooking/food prep/meal planning, wardrobe planning, and cleaning, spending time w/ Weezee, who will go insane with grief, loneliness and misery with all my time away. oh and Kissey? :( Not as much time together and certainly no trips to Last Chance.....I can't risk the poison oak and the exhaustion. But, this is life, right?

So..........I'm sending in my resume and.........we'll see what happens. I am so sad to say that I just don't think I can ever work full-time again........I mean I possibly could, but it might ruin my already paltry life.....which actually isn't so bad, I just don't have any money.

arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh BOLLOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( Meltdown upon meltdown, I"m afraid.

Ohhhhh.....

:( Oh it just can't be, Em..........could she be arthritic? I'm really glad you're going to the vet.....she is so lucky she found your family. :)

Peter - a Korat? that's so stinkin' exotic!!!!!!! :P

Labs, goldens, german shepherds, and the giant breeds....not unheard of in standards, but certainly uncommon. Dunno, the symptoms just seem to fit. However, I didn't notice them at all until she'd been here a couple of days. I think that whatever it is (osteoarthritis, dysplasia, etc.) has been brought on or aggravated by exercise. I walk and run faithfully every day, as does DH. Elsie has accompanied us I think daily since we've had her, and has absolutely revelled in it. I've never seen such a happy dog. However, it may have taken its toll, especially since we are now figuring that she NEVER got exercised at her old home. Worse, she probably spent a lot more time than we were originally led to believe inside her crate. :(:angry: So, all this activity, including the long romps in our backyard with Gus, may be a big shock to her system. I'm just not sure......

Susie! Don't fret about this job situation...or lack thereof. Things ALWAYS work out. Sometimes in phunny, phunny ways...but they do. I feel good about what's gonna unfold for you. Really! :):)

Maybe they'd like a house dog. Or be happy if you were sorta part time sorta full time, depending on the work load.

You'll never know unless you try.

I remember when I first got Weezee.......she'd never been to the beach/mountains/in a house/in a bed, anywhere. She ran with such joyful abandon on the beach......I can just picture how happy Elsie must be wtih this...... :) Hope to God she's okay.

Oh, yeah......!! Would I love to teach from my home, via teleconferencing er sumfin'....just my face, so I could be in my jammies. Oh....maybe just my ear, or from the forehead up, so I wouldn't have to put on makeup....

      This article does not address migraines at all. Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers.

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
