Well....this is decidedly NOT a great photo. . . . jeez, with all the sophisticated settings on my photoshop software, ya'd think I could have gotten things brighter, clearer.. . ...more flattering..... ..

Alas, this is the best I could do. I'm sorry we cannot see Jacquie better. :angry: She seems to be in the area where the sun was streaming through .. ....and this is no surprise, as Jacquie is indeed someone who has sunshine around her. :)

DingoGirl Enthusiast

Loving all the new photos.......Toronto Summit especially, oh, AND a LLAMA SIGHTING????????????????

Ummmm . . . . who's whining?? Suezee or Weezle?

OMG not sure who WOULD whine more :lol:

Oops meant to throw a :lol: at Pseu-purr-Oui-zul earlier.

<sadly shaking head> Moving from Monterey (& of course, mere minutes from Grande South) was purely medical necessity tweren't it?

Dang .. ..wish I'd been feeling better that day in Feb or March when you were in Willow Glen & I was bowing out.

Forgetting whether you even had time.

always LURVE the Ouizel spellings :cackle:

A$$HOLE :angry: and I were on very limited time that day in WG.......so sad we didn't meet!

Yes - moved home from Monterey as I kept getting SOOOOOOOO sick - my mom had to come take care of me - four? times - five days each.....................

oh and plus all me friends but one moved away.................

Amanda! Lots going on - sending prayers and love......keep us posted. Love the house......

I should like to psilly ambassador to the UK along with SpruesieQ (we like the mystical fog, shrubbery, accents and kilts!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.....and don't forget the gorgeous men :wub:

Now, psilly summits.....can we have a London/2012/Olympics pleeeeeease (no ka - ching for me ha ha)

that's right. You'll just have to have, oh, what, 12 (?) of us descending upon yer home..........so yeah, you just supply the food AND the lodging, will cost you nuffink :lol:

Bev - cool beans on the pics . . . does anyone else use that term? . . . we use to use it all the time . . . don't know where it came from . . . Suezee will probably say she and one of her friends made it up.

*snort*

cannot take credit for that one.......beans are not my friends :sadface:

Why yes, you picked up on that!! I do love me European menfolk ...actually menfolk of all nations, I do not discriminate, hee hee!

yes........menpholk of all nations........just seems that there is a preponderance of UK hotties these days, don't it? :droolface:

I'm blessed to live in such a nice place where they really care deeply about each other and are there the second someone needs anything. Rare in this day and age.

I take great strength in seeing this. Still no 'silly' in me but am finding some 'joyfull blessings' so will take that for now.

aw Judy, so sorry to hear this. What a long life they had together. Quite a neighborhood you have there!

{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}

Well! I assume that nothing has transpired with Emotigate since I've been away. I have not checked Soooozie's thread . .. . . did Skaought descend and shed some light on our at times dire situation?

EMOTIGATE :lol:

OH! Soooozie.......speaking of attractive men: I kept looking at my brother up on the stage at the dance last night, watching him pound away on the drums, singing out electrifying harmonies, throwing his drumsticks around, catching them behind his back, etc., and thinking, "How can we get him together with Psilly Psooozie?"

We did not win the prize for best costumed couple.

:lol: I have no doubt of this. Afraid of youse guys, even on Hallowe'en :lol:

Yes - she said that there are 15 emoticons in total..............

but we can ONLY now use 10 per post.

This is an outrage. :angry: A removing of a privilege, if you will, that we once so phondly and phreely enjoyed.

What if, one day, one felt such a..........curious mix of conflicting emotions (joy, ennui, boredom, malaise, Manchester, titillation, grief, horror.......oh wait - this is reminding me of someone I know :lol: )..........just every sort of pheeling there is, emoticonally speaking. And - one NEEDED to use all 15 in one's post, for correct expression.....yet only TEN are available to us, per post........

an outrage, I tell you, AN OUTRAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this DEMANDS a proposition/amendment to this situation......and how very timely to address this discussion now, as we can all (well, US residents) vote on this on Tuesday.........

mark yer ballots!

it's the highly important (but oft-ignored) Prop 20, Emoticonal Dearth, Deprivation and Damnation. Vote YES for more smileys.

Good Monday Morning, Sillies!!

Mygawd - - Big, Fat, Scary Tuesday is a mere 24 hours away . . .....billions of eyes will turn to the goings-on in the United States. . .. .....

Do you think it is too late to contact either (or both) of the candidates with our portentous forum issue?

It is possible that this has NOT come to your attention; therefore, in brief, a sudden and enormous change has occurred in the large American voting area of Psillyville. In fact, this realm is international, which makes it all the more vital to put things right, for the eyes of Canada and Great Britain are turned to the U.S. and need reassurance that they will be respected and supported under new leadership.

Emoticons have been suddenly restricted, without forewarning or explanation. Many citizens rely on these characters for their day-to-day communication, and find themselves deeply handicapped, often unable to function socially..... . . .

If there's time, let's send this off. One of them is bound to listen. If ANYONE can fix this emergency, it's the President of the United States.

Who 'round here owns a caddy and drives around shooting at people? That was one of our float ideas in the parade days, was it not? Did someone actually get that act together?

      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.

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.  
    • Wheatwacked
      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.
