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!!!!!

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??

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. . . ...

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?

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.

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:

: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.......

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!

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!

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress.

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      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.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      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.
