I'm still not scared! I run fast...... Besides, who says Yeti's are dangerous anyways?

Sarah, you need to tell me the evildoer's name. I'm gonna do a voodoo hex! Make his penis fall off. Or just become horribly diseased.

Question. I have (rather abundant) cleavage (snicker) so does that mean that I AM or AM NOT under the rule of the cleavage queen? Is she called that because she has the power to endow cleavage? (Or remove it?) eek

Is there a metric equivalent for cubits? Is a cubit already metric? Is it, in fact, a unti of measurement at all?

A Cubit is actually a unit of measurement. According to wikipedia, The cubit is based on measuring by comparing

Hi All Sillies!

It is only 10 and it is already hotter than hell. I think this is the last hot day though. I hear rain is coming.

We are doing our mortgage appointment this morning to see how much we can get approved for in a loan. Very stressful. I cannot be happier when this is over.

Where is our Tom.....I miss him!!!

It seems like it's just random enough to be voted on as the official measurement of psilliville.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Nothing we do will ever match! It's perfect!

Relax. Ample cleavage = ample saggage. Be happy with what you've got.

:lol: Well, our yeti is a love. And tolerant? Gad...... . the things we've put him through.. . ....

Howevah, word was yesterday that he may have gotten involved with a chupacabra. . .... things may be a'changing with his personality.

I miss him!

And I miss Patoughmghmn! Actually, I'm concerned about that one. Hope he's managing okay.... . . . .. :(:unsure:

Sarah, you need to tell me the evildoer's name. I'm gonna do a voodoo hex! Make his penis fall off. Or just become horribly diseased.

Penises (er....excuse me...penii) falling off....... . . :blink::lol:

Perhaps another way to measure a cubit? Less variation with this....appendage....than with forearms?

No, phorget it.... . . . .methinks there is great variation.... .. ..... :lol:

I would also like some cleavage. Push-up bras help, but I just don't get the real deal. I'd have to have them pushed up to me mouth, and well, there ain't enough there to get remotely close...... <_<

Ryan! Nacho cheese! :lol:

Whenever I think of nachos (or when I make them), I ALWAYS think of our Sarah and the chip-up-her-nose introduction. :lol: Happier, happier times....... . ...I MISS SARAH IN SILLYVILLE!! :wub::(:angry:

Here's a bit of silliness that occurred today. I finally decided to bite the bullet and go to the doctor. My dad and the boys have all caught this cold from me and are already getting better, while I'm still hacking up a lung. Turns out I have bronchitis, borderline pneumonia-- that's not the silly part. (Duh.) My immune system is probably in the toilet right now, and my blood pressure skyrocketed back into danger territory. Not too surprising, hopefully it'll even back out soon... Anyway, the silly part...

My doctor has had the same nurse for quite awhile now-- a tall, blonde girl named Jade, very sweet, she's my buddy. But my doctor also always has PAs doing internships, nurses and EMTs doing workshops, all that kind of stuff, so there's often new people in and out.

Well, I'm sitting in the waiting room today, and the door opens, but it wasn't Jade who called my name. No, indeed, instead it was freaking Matthew McConaughey's clean-cut brother! I'm not sh!tting you, you guys, this dude was a total doppelganger, same voice and drawl, and everything! I thought I was gonna have a heart attack.

There I am, schlumped over in a chair, wearing my ratty old patchwork overalls, tank top underneath, and sandals. Eyes bleary, hacking up phlegm and trying not to pee myself every time I cough. He calls my name, and I have to stop myself from gesturing vaguely toward my face, saying, "Moi?" Hehe...

He took my vitals, and when he got to my pulse, he said, very concernedly, that it was really fast. I couldn't help it. A hoarse little snicker popped out before I could stop it. Oh well.

I just had to tell you guys about it. He was HOT.

They should do a re-check with a slatternly nurse, just to see if it's him, or you.

Sarah . . . so good to hear from you . . . and you deserve a bit of eye-candy if anyone does. Hope they gave you some good drugs for yer bronchitis . . . and that coughing/peeing thing only gets worse as you get older. They say bowling kegling is good for that though!!

Not only are you looking at other men, but you're looking at YUMMY other men! I'm just glad he wasn't your ob/gyn or proctologist ;)

OMG--I gotta go in a minute and get dinner but when Matt was born (24 years ago yesterday), the resident on the floor where I was was a guy I went to high school with :o Gawd.....and he didn't look like MM, either <_<

So, we were making small talk about who'd a thunk it while he was checking me out (I wanted to die, I was so embarassed but tried to act like I was cool with it) and he told me that another girl from our school was just down the hall having just had a baby.

Haven't thought about that in years :lol:

Due to Tropical Storm Hanna the beach trip for this weekend has been postponed. After a 3wk period hiatus and unprotected sex.....Jen talked to her 20 yr cousin who had casual sex again last night. Jen was pretty much telling her about her Phloosy behaviour only she used some not so nice words to describe her. SO anyway after Jen spoke to her she asked me to bring down my preg tests. We get stock piles of them from the hospital since all these drug companies send them for the research trials but my hospital does its own test for pregginess so we dont use and the company never wants them back. So I had a bag of them. Turns out she is not preggy...which is good!!!!

The Fun and Craziness never stops around here :o

Hey All my US sillies-- if you are bored tonight, check out the Stand up To Cancer TV program starting at 8, it is being shown on ABC, NBC, and CBS. It is all about cancer treatments and clinical trials and research and stuff. It is a nationwide event. Its been a big conversation at the med center of course but maybe if any one here is interested just to see what its about :)

Hehe, I have to admit, I never did have a problem LOOKING at the "menu." But this one was swoon-worthy. And NICE. And no ring. Can't help but be uplifted there...

Sigh... I was thinking last night, how my feelings have evolved over the past three weeks. At first I was just so horribly shocked and wounded, I kept thinking, "I can't do this, I'll never be able to get through this." And that was just looking at the fact that I would be apart from him.

I had NO IDEA how much worse it was going to get... The selfish cruelty, the heartlessness... that now finally, in an odd way, the worse he gets, the more I'm able to be glad I'm away from him. It would have come out one way or another eventually, I guess.

I keep thinking about an email Lisa (H) sent me- and I promise I'm going to write back- but... maybe this can be a fresh start for me, and the boys, too.

It's hard, and I'm mourning a lot of things right now, but...... despite being sick as a dog, this has been a decent day. :)

BTW, if I disappear for awhile, it's just Hanna. The rain kills the internet connection here. My parents have that Wild Blue satellite, and it stinks.

      Insomnia help

      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,...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

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

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.
