Morning, Sillies!

Canada's women's soccer team is presently playing China..... . . think we may get badly beaten... . .China is one strong team..... . .

Hi, Jin! What a beautiful little rabbit!

"May you live in interesting times." For those of us who moderate here, it has been "interesting times" for the last 24 hours or so.

Mygawd.........It's not ME causing you trouble, is it, PeOter?.... . . . ..... :huh::unsure:

... . ...is it something I said??... . . . . . ..... ;)<_<

I want to second Judy's thank you to you, PeOter. Moderating is a thankless job, and this forum is very lucky to have you. :)

Great that you've got help on the way at your store. This will keep the freight train at bay.

I went for my annual follow-up visit with the ophthalmologist today. I had some problems with Open Original Shared Link which required minor laser surgery in February of 2004. Today's examination shows no change from four years ago. :) (So far, this is the only sign of complications--an enlarged blood vessel in one eye.)

Excellent, Peoter....your eyes are holding steady after four years! I'm always holding my breath when I go to my yearly appointment with my diabetes eye specialist, waiting for news of the first complication signs. So far, so good..... . . . .

PeOter, methinks you should put up an avatar a la Jess and Janet - - a big shot of your eye, so we can see how healthy it is. :huh::lol:

Canada just scored!!!!!!! :):)

o. k. already you are THE QUEEN . i'll give you that one ....... or is it a voting thing .. queens could be voted in ......no? do we need campagaining ... give us your "if i am elected" , speach.....and get ready with your thanks for voting me in aceptace one too.

There is quite a complex system of ascention here, Jo. Quite an involved process involving lineage charts, DNA testing....... . . eventually, it ends up being whoever is the first poster of the flipover page at the hundred mark.... . . . . . :rolleyes:

China scored..............! Tied at one..................... . . . . . :o:unsure:

there is a light at the end of the tunnel (I hope it is not the headlight of an incoming train :rolleyes: ).

Dropping in for a quick visit. I'm current on reading, but don't have much silly in me to share. There is an ancient Chinese curse, I believe, that goes something like, "May you live in interesting times." For those of us who moderate here, it has been "interesting times" for the last 24 hours or so. :angry:

I was going to mention today how there are some major egos and attitudes around the forum lately . . . yowsa . . . and as I have been following some of the hostility dialogue, I find things phunnie that I probably shouldn't :P Oh well, my sense of humoUr has gotten me into trouble before, I'm sure it will again.

Peter glad the eye appt went well . . . so maybe you can start paying your doc bills in dog food.

MAYBE you can heal his dog with your food and he can heal your eye bulbs......... :lol: yes i meant 'bulbs' trying to bring some humor here.

love all you guys

judy

:lol::lol::lol: - Totally tickled my tummy that Judy had to tell us that she meant to say 'bulbs'!!!

I want to second Judy's thank you to you, PeOter. Moderating is a thankless job, and this forum is very lucky to have you. :)

Wow . . . way to totally ignore the other moderators on this thread, Emily!!! Do you really want to do that in these "troubled" times??? For my part, I think ALL of you moderators do a fantastic job!!! :brown-noserface:

(Did you see how I did that, Emily??? You just don't mention names. You group them all together and then you don't get in trouble for leaving anyone out!! Remember a little less than a year ago when Bev left me out of a "What everyone was doing at the party" list . . . see how I still haven't gotten over it?? . . . :lol::lol::lol: )

PeOter, methinks you should put up an avatar a la Jess and Janet - - a big shot of your eye, so we can see how healthy it is. :huh::lol:

:lol::lol: - Yes!! Go fer it!!!

Em - Love the new Gusatar!!

Jin - Boomer looks adorable!! - My neighbor (I'm guessing mid to late 50's) broke down and got herself a bunny not too long ago . . . she's a sweetheart . . . both the neighbor and the bunny.

P.S. How is Amanda's husband doing? The last I was on here, he had just lost his friend in a car wreck and was severely depressed. I hope he is doing better. Such things are difficult to recover from. I have some great things I got in e-mail that I will try to post soon for everyone.

Hi Jin- nice to see you again. John is doing better. It's been about 2 months now. Thanks for thinking about us. :) Cute bunny!

i'm in but it could be costly for me....no? coming from hawaii? what state are you in ? ha .. ha... or was it uk or canada?

We live in PA--and work in Hershey where the chocolate isn't soo good anymore ;)

I went for my annual follow-up visit with the ophthalmologist today. Today's examination shows no change from four years ago. :)

It's a small world. She looked, and sure enough, the computer had a record of Dr K buying food and being served by her.

Yes interesting times Peter....can't we all just get along?!?!?!? Wishful thinking I guess <_< Glad yer appt went well, phunny coincidence about yer Dr shopping at yer store :lol:

And I second and third and fourth the THANKS to all the moderators, tis not an easy job when there are so many differences of opinion and clashing personalities.

I wanted to share my good news with you all. Mom got me a bunny! :) He is so adorable! Boomer is his name.

Hi Jin :) I thought you named the bunny Peekaboo :huh:

Boomer is very cute too, that's what I named one of my bunnies :lol:

:lol: Janet, how's the knee?

Well I watched the opening ceremonies, unfortunately my local station had a lot of technical difficulties due to a mjor storm we had last night and the sound kept going out, I was quite bummed. But WOW what a visual feast for the eyes it was.

Emily, what was the thing you were talking about the one in the middle controlling it?? I kept looking for something in the middle, but had no idea what I was looking for :lol::lol::lol:

Wondering how the Schmoozle and the Weeze fared last night, anxiously awaiting how they rated them in comparison to year's past..........

Oooooohhhh......must go search out these explosive threads. So fascinating to be a bumbling outsider and peek into these worlds of clashing opinion, opposing intellects, feet-stamping, sabre-rattling.....and I never know what in hell's going on...... :huh:<_<:rolleyes:

Emily, what was the thing you were talking about the one in the middle controlling it?? I kept looking for something in the middle, but had no idea what I was looking for :lol:

:lol::lol: You know that unbelievable grid with the hundreds of moving squares that went like a wave, then spirals, then Chinese characters, all incredibly timed and flowing? Of course we know NOW that each of those squares had a person under it, moving it up and down with staggering precision, as they all burst up and began waving at the very end. Well, I thought at first that the squares were being moved by a computer somewhere....it never occurred to me that people could actually do this, so precisely. During the performance, our announcer mentioned that it was individual people under each square, kneeling, crouching, then standing and crashing back down at the exact moments needed.

Now, was I just a dolt? :lol: Did everyone else know from the very beginning that there were li'l people under those things? :rolleyes::huh:

Judy! We got big eyes for avatars.......I keep thinking about yer cauliflower ear......could you post a close-up of it as your av? :lol:

You guys have to root for our Ian Miller - - he's the 62 year-old equestrian rider. This is his ninth Olympics. C'MON, GRAMPA!!!!!! :lol::lol:

I love the story about your flag-bearer....the Sudanese refugee. What a beautiful face, smiling into the crowd, and what a horrific childhood.... . .now he stands to win a gold medal. Those are the real stories of the Olympics....... :):)

Spruezee!!! You missed it????! Gahhhh....hope you were at least sitting wif some good-looking, interesting characters.......

I think she's been on the news, although not recently. I remember a story about a woman in (Snohomish county?) who rescued a horse that she felt was show quality.

Volleyball here as well. My friends daughter plays VB at almost a professional level. He was telling me about the incredible subtleties that make excellent players - varying the delivery position by millimeters, looking one direction while sending the ball elsewhere, that sort of thing. I want to see if I can spot any of these tricks.

Don' forget . . . glittery eye-shadow to distract or throw light into the competition's eyes!!

Oh . . . and the knee . . . I think I'm doing pretty good. Got major kudos from the doc and PT at my appts on Thursday. Sometimes it feels great and then a couple of hours later much much worse . . . comes and goes . . . have to keep an glittery eye on the swelling.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep.  One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem.  Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read, do a sudoku or some other small task, and then go back to bed when she felt sleepy again.  I can't think it did her any harm - she lived  well into her nineties. Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!
