So Em.....I presume they didn't bring a ballcock today either?...... B)

Bah! Nope, no ballcocks. But there are SIX big guys on my roof right now....I think they sent so many to get it done pronto, before any rain starts up. So far, so good. <_<

MY SPELL CK ISN'T WORKING. I GET A HAND WITH A FINGER WITH THE STAR OVER IT WHEN I HIT THE ADD BUTTON. WHAT THE HELL?????

Judy! I believe that is a little miraculous sign from God, letting you know he's there for you...... :lol::rolleyes:

I thought you-all would be proud of me for not making snarky comments in other threads :rolleyes:

I figured Ckought wouldn't want his lovely forum degenerating into a free-for-all of tangential, abstract snips.

Hey, ya'll speak for yourselves! <_< I like snarky! :D

Much mirth over the 'Mods and their magic powers' :lol:

Do you have to 'vote' newbies in??? :unsure:

Oh no! This does not sound good :( Nikki, if you can't get any water into him or he keeps throwing it up, you need to get him to the vet for an IV fluid. We had to do this with Allo once when he was young--the vet said that not drinking for 24 hours is an emergency.

The good news is that he came home later that evening looking like a camel (the fluids build up under the skin and disperse from there) and recovered completely. :)

Keep us posted on the wee one.

Although I realized I wouldn't object if I were allowed to end every post with something like "There are no omnipotent beings spending every moment of their existence focusing on just you, so maybe you should take some time to learn to take care of yourself."

I mean, just look at Judy's flowers - omnipotent beings clearly have better things to do than sit around and listen to us whine.

Poor baby :(

May I suggest some watered down baby food in that syringe? Sometimes a little substance can help.

He had the tiniest bit of cooked chicken - but that came back up after a couple of mins :worriedface:

Nikki! Poor wee Barphin' Boris.....! :( Do keep us posted........

The less weight a creature is, the less time he can manage without fluid. I agree with Patti - - should take him to the vet tomorrow am if he hasn't consumed SOMETHING......

I believe I could manage quite a while, thank you..... <_<

Well, when she willingly displayed her heiny (and her bathroom) after a night of absinthe debauchery I figured she either had a great body (image) or a very poor memory...

Patti, you look FABULOUS. Don't anybody believe her. Jack told me after our great evening, "Patti is really pretty. She looks about 36. I think Mark kind of looks like her dad". :o:lol::rolleyes:

Guys I am so excited...this is our week sans-baby....and we have so many phun things planned! We are going to see 1-legged Dave our old lab buddy tonight for dinner. I miss him the most from the lab, everyone hates this man, he turned out to be the best friend John and I ever made down there. Everyone told me, he will be civil to you for 1 year and then he will turn on you....well 5 years later he was at my wedding, his daughter was my flower girl....Guess I proved them wrong :)

Then Jen has a babysitter for the evening and she and John and I are heading to the casino. I still like Atlantic City much better than our PA casinos since there is more to do. But this is still a fun night out. I think it is nice for Jen to go out every now and again as well. Next weekend she is coming home to my moms again. We are doing the county fair and that kind of funs tuff.

Well time to head out of here. Bye Bye Sillies!

Where is everybody?? :unsure:

So, I'm outside this evening, weeding and going along great guns when I pull this good-sized weed out from under a shrub......and an entire colony of ground bees come pouring out! :o I drop my shovel, run towards the porch, dropping my gardening gloves and waving my arms to try and keep the bees away (quite a sight, I'm sure :blink: )

Luckily, I only got one sting--the little sucker stung me right through my jeans! :huh::angry: It still hurts a little :(

I have to say I'm enjoying the weaving, meandering conversations lately......spilling over into email and encompassing other threads.....

Then here we go .. .

No one moderator has more 'rights' than any other moderator here.

That's what they want you to think.

Here's a fun bit - a woman in the yahooceliacbayarea got her new license plate:

We were at the store until 7. When we got home, I made dinner and we dined out on the deck, where we still are. I have the laptop out here on the table.

We're still struggling with staffing issues. We had a temporary person, already trained, whom we expected to stay with us until LaboUr day, but he found a better job for the rest of the summer, and today was his last. We are training a university student (local), but he won't be ready to work alone for at least a couple of weeks. So for the short term, one (or both) of us has to be there all day every day. :(

Nikki, the advice you have already had about Boris is good. Kittens are fragile, and dehydration is very serious.

Judy, I love your flowers.

Open Original Shared Link There are four in the Vancouver area and two in Greater Toronto. The closest one to me is the Avenue Road location, just north of Bloor, and I have not been there. I seem to be surviving with other more conveniently located stores. But I will have to visit one of these days. Maybe they will eventually come to Ottawa. :huh:

thanks ......glad you enjoyed the flowers.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
