Someday, I think I\'m moving to Charlotte. Or Atlanta. The South is where I belong, phriends. B)

My yard is full of dead things in various stages of decay. Also plenty of pup poop from the neighbour's dog.

Note to self: If ever invited to Jess's place, refrain from stepping into her back yard.. ......

OK.....WTH is a jumper?......cuz around here, it's a sleeveless dress with no waistline that requires a shirt...usually turtleneck...to be worn underneath it.

BTW.....I happen to like sweaters!.

:lol: Lisa, I take it you haven't seen Bridget Jones's Diary? Very educational :D

Jumpers are what Brits call sweaters :)

:vomitvomitvomitvomitvomitvomitface:

All in all, a disgusting gardening experience. Must be more careful and more watchful of dead rodents and nutty, soft, poo.

I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.....

GROSS!!!!!!

Must think happy pleasant thoughts! HAPPY PLEASANT THOUGHTS!!!!!

Green12 Enthusiast

Didn't mean to leave you hanging!!

I'm just not sure if it's a done deal and didn't want to get everyone's hopes up until I knew more.......it's a blonde cocker spaniel, male, almost 4 yrs old. Friend's of a friend can't keep it anymore because one of their teenagers has asthma and has become allergic to him, so they are looking for a good home to take him in.

Didn't exactly want another cocker (I lost my cocker 2 yrs ago) they can sometimes be feisty and I have 3 little nieces, but it needs to be rescued so we will see if it will be a good fit.

I have been thinking a lot lately about getting another dog, haven't really been ready until now, and then this came up.....maybe it is meant to be!

I'll be watching Patti :D . Someone else is joining the cast too but I can't recall.........is it Lucy Lui??

jerseyangel Proficient

Julie,

It kinda does sound like you and this little dog were meant to be :D I hope it works out and the two of you are a good fit together.

Yep--Lucy Lu....

Hope everything works out Julie!!! How exciting!! Now I'm visualizing a little doggie treadmill next to Julie's treadmill so she can take him for a run with her! :lol:

Good morning, Sillies!

A doggy treadmill .. . . .I have oft thought of such a thing, especially when living through our winters and now having TWO big dogs that need daily exercise. How great that would be to line them up on a treadmill, hit "start', and come back in a half-hour. . . . . ..

I'd have to hang a li'l stuffed squirrel off the front of the machine.. . . :rolleyes:

....but at least I wouldn't have to keep flipping the toaster up again and again. . . ...

Yeah Nikki . . . we don't have room for horses jumpers. We have a spare bedroom and all . . . but I'm pretty sure it's against the Home Owners Association rules.

Shoot!...yer can't beat a jumper ;)

Premature excitement AND cocker glee here too :D

Susies gag-inducing gardening :o (boiling water for dem maggots BTW)

Whaaaat?????? :unsure:

Clearly intellectually inferior to London squirrels who know the pin number to me credit card AND me Mum's maiden name :rolleyes:

Sillies- I do not think it is pink eye- I woke up with a clear eye- completely. I took a shower and then had to run to the eye dr to drop something off. Even the woman there said it didnt look like pink eye. I get home and it was starting to get a little itchy and now its red and irritated again. Fine till I got in the shower and thats when I had trouble last time.....Its an allergy to something, but nothing has changed in my shower--no new soaps or detergants nothing. I still have not put a contact into that eye but what to do next?

jerseyangel Proficient

Amanda--maybe an "outdoor" allergy? They're pretty bad this year--people who aren't normally bothered by them are having problems. Both Mark and I have had itchy eyes the last couple of weeks. Have you rubbed your eye more than normal? Been outside in the wind?

One of my eyes is much more itchy than the other (the one with the eczema) so it may not affect both eyes equally. Just thinkin.

Green12 Enthusiast

Thanks y'all, I'm excited too :D:D

I will keep you posted!

Gag-inducing gardening :lol: Dead rats, maggots......I would be haunted by the experience :shiver: Um, Susie WHY are the rats dead?? :huh:

Quite impressive squirrels you have there Nikki :lol:

You know now that I think about it I haven't seen many squirrels here where I live, lots and lots of birds, and groundhogs, a few fox, but NO squirrels :huh: I also live in a gated community so maybe there is something to that.......the squirrels can't figure out the code to get in!!

Amanda, that's crazy about your eye. Definitely doesn't sound like pink eye if you woke up with it completely normal. Must be some type of allergy :huh:

DingoGirl Enthusiast
Gag-inducing gardening :lol: Dead rats, maggots......I would be haunted by the experience :shiver: Um, Susie WHY are the rats dead?? :huh:

:blink: indeed - well, I had to scrutinize and inspect the dead rat, could not see any injuries or wounds (Annie does pounce on things in her sport back there), so I think it ate some of Stepford's poison. Just very happy Annie doesn't even dead things...... :unsure:

or does she? I never saw the decomposing dead rat there, and that's a bed I phrequently weed.......

:unsure:

those pets on treadmills. :lol: Weez might enjoy that. Tika would have had a nervous breakdown. :lol:

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Hi Sillies- I made an appt with MY dr for 12:45. My eye is almost clear again- just a slight redness. Patti it does itch now and then but not like the got itch, itch, itch deal. It has to be an alergy or maybe a cold in my eye or something but it sure isnt pink eye---I know it in my heart it isnt pink eye....you know how deep down you have that feeling....well I have that feeling....

I am awaiting a maint. man to come fix our dishwasher....it is giving off a nasty odor....eww!

You know something? I have a very strong suspicion that they also know what the problem is with Amanda's eye.. . . . ....

I'll get back to you Amanda . .. gonna try to communicate with one of the little guys out back. :huh::lol:

Emily, you need this:

OMG. . .. there actually IS a treadmill specifically for dogs. So indicative of the state of our society - - Cannot manage to take your dog out for a bit of walking exercise? No problem! Stay inert and inside. .. . we can sell you a machine that will do it all for you! <_<

Loved the dog and cat together on the treadmill. .. . .what a beautiful Maine Coone. I WANT ONE!

(Annie does pounce on things in her sport back there), so I think it ate some of Stepford's poison. Just very happy Annie doesn't even dead things......

Mygawd. . . . . ..Stepford puts out poison? She just gets more and more frightening. . ..... :rolleyes::lol:

I am awaiting a maint. man to come fix our dishwasher....it is giving off a nasty odor....eww!

Make sure to come back and give us a Ballcock Report, Amanda.. .....

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
