....but a week to get the part in to fix yer boiler Nik?? HEINOUS. Are you guys going to be warm enough?!?!?!

I hope so!

The boiler can take bursts of heat for about an hour before it konks out for a rest :rolleyes:

Veeeeeery interesting dream Nik, twas me (not to be confused with Twa me) who posted the dream dictionary:

Open Original Shared Link

Hippie

To see a hippie in your dream, represents excess and freedom of expression.

To dream that you are a hippie, suggests that you want to be different. You are rejecting societal norms and conventional values.

:huh:;) Ok then :D

Me thinks you and Terry should cook up a big feast tomorrow and celebrate it wif us, maybe it will catch on with yer countrymen!

I suppose we could :unsure: ...but it IS just a normal day........WHO makes it a holiday?? (Government?)

I shall have to get on to Gordon Brown toot sweet!!! (not sure exactly WHAT we can give thanks FOR?)

I shall tell Daniel (me eldest) NOT to go into work tomorrow.... to tell them he can't as he has to stay home for Thanksgiving :lol:

Patti is up to her yatta bay?? :huh::lol:

....must get a Turkey.......

GAAAAAHHH!!! TWENTY EMOTICONS!!!!! :o:o:lol::lol::D:D

I feel like an alcoholic who has just stumbled into a Legion Hall Party. . . . . ..

YIIIIPPEEEEE!!!!

Cooking up to me yatta-bay!

Patti!! What does this crazy thing mean?? :huh::lol:

Anyone going to answer that one?

I think Emily should . . . Sam was under her supervision . . . she let him get out. Of course there's no guarentee that she won't totally make something up!!!

Yep, I'm heading over there right now. . . . . . ...will tell the true story of Sam Hill Manhead. Everything. :lol::lol:

Tis a good question.

Methinks that England doesn't have a Thanksgiving because the whole traditional meaning of the holiday (giving thanks for being discovered, the whole Plymouth Rock thang) just isn't relevant there. England is a squillion years old - - you guys weren't discovered....you and France and Spain did all the discovering! :rolleyes::lol:

You're just too old, youse guys!

...'tweren't a garbage can holder at all!!!! In a flash I'm fully ass-in, legs & arms out, of a recently used, otherwise empty keg tub, soaking in ice & icewater, w/ blood flowing from a forearm cut by the impact on a NOT sharp at all tub edge!!!!!

And I laughed. And bled. And stayed. Ahhhhh college

I LOVE this story!!!!!!!! Falling/injured/bleeding/laughing/staying :lol: :lol:

[our emoticons are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D but - um - since Scott just added them/notified us in me thread about their increase, do you think THAT led to the crash of the forum? :unsure: ]

I guess, upon reflection, I meant to ask, "JUST as big?", as up here there is no comparison - - Thanksgiving fades into a small blip on the national screen when compared to Christmas. The States plays up Thanksgiving much more . . .....it seems so nice.. . .. . Families and food, thankfulness . . . ......

But we're happy....we get a three-day weekend. . . . . . . :

Well, it's a big event with big dinner prep - very hard on the women-folk, who do all the work, usually......BUT - it's also THE MOST HEINOUS retail blowout ever - - - the Friday after is called - Black Friday? and many stores open at - get this - 4 a.m., with mad sales, and people are actually out there, in hordes, doing their Christmas shopping........... :blink:

I have NEVER shopped on this egregious day - usually don't leave the house but to go to friends' - 'tis not safe...........

I had a dream last night that I joined a hippy commune.........

Bevel was me best mate there

We wore tye dye flowing skirts and plaited everybodies hair......... and we lived illegally (squatters!) in a Stately home

BEV??

Nik's a hippie wif Bevel (am just SOOOOO jealous I was not in on this also!) avoiding societal conventions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: love this

Cooking up to me yatta-bay! Be back later

*snort* must look up the origin of this expression - love it

JESS!!!!!!!!! oh YES! Ptaum and Weezee and I will be there soon......we'll eat yer bacon-wrapped turkey, abduct you, throw you in the back of the smelly Amish Jeep and all head on over to Julie's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P Then, I don't see why we can't just keep on driving and head to see our Canadian friends, and DEMAND that they host a Thanksgiving dinner for us, wif all the trimmings............. Peter and Jacquie, we'll all be gathering at Em's hot tub on Friday, get ready!

I think Emily should . . . Sam was under her supervision . . . she let him get out. Of course there's no guarentee that she won't totally make something up!!!

what? Our M, make sumfin up???????????????

really sillies, what ARE we going to do? :lol:

you know - we could use this as a big recruitment effort.......all of us post over there and - then just barrage those posters with high-pressure sales-type pm's to come join us.........with promises of Burundian exotic-ness, parades, yetis, trips all over the world for phree, tiny Twa, delicious g f desserts and UK Thanksgiving feasts, absinthe, hot tubs, blah blah blah....

Tis a good question. Me thinks you and Terry should cook up a big feast tomorrow and celebrate it wif us, maybe it will catch on with yer countrymen!

Capitol idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suppose we could ...but it IS just a normal day........WHO makes it a holiday?? (Government?)

this cracked me up - - Nik announcing that they are having Thanksgiving celebrations all of a sudden on the last thursday in November.......no one going to school or work......ringing the PM.............. *snort* GET ON THIS!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

afternoon sillies!

Tis a busy but quiet morning at work. We are an office of 6 today instead of 20. Nice calm place to be. We visited my one coworker who had a hysterectomy yesterday. She was 38. She was happy to have it, she has been having problems during her period since she was young and this would solve them all.

I only work till 2:30. Jen and I are going to see the new house, she has not been there yet. I have to come back and pick up John at work at 4:30.

We are meeting with Josh right after work to sign some more house papers. Landen is coming over @ 6. Jen is working tonight. John, Landen and I are going to Wegmans to finish Thanksgiving shopping. Landen will go to bed @ 8:30 and then I will finish packing for my moms. Tomorrow we will leave to go to Jen's house at 7:30, she is going to get in our car and we are all heading to Thanksgiving dinner for 12 noon @ my moms. Busy busy in our house.

Then on Friday we will all work again and then John and I are leaving early Saturday morning to go to NJ to a funeral. John's cousin passed away yesterday. He was 50. He was a genius and in his 20's he developed schizophrenia...can't spell sorry! He was a diabetic and his "voices" always told him not to takes his meds...so he ended up with renal failure and has been on dialysis for years.

So his mom is John's moms sister and they were all coming to John's moms for Thanksgiving this year. Well on Friday night, last week John's mom called and said they were heading to NJ in the morning to see Julian. He hadnt had his dislysis in a month...he didnt think he needed it anymore.....which of course was not true. He was losing lots of weight, turning gray and was in plain bad shape. So they didnt know how much time he had left....I honestly could not believe he had made it this long....

Well last night he didnt make it...

So my day yesterday....my coworker became a grammy, I got my house, then my coworker had the hyster. surgery, and then Julian passed away....lots of significant changes in a short period of time, almost every aspect was covered.....

Sillies--

Hee! I meant to yell you that on "Jeopardy" the other night, one of the contestants said she was--get this--"a Mayor of an on-line city" :o:o

I thought, woah......is this like Queen or King of our own Sillyville? :huh: Are they actually incorporated? :huh: What in hell?? :o Others do this sort of thing too? :unsure:

Which leads me to think.....Em, maybe SHM was a plant, meant to be phound by Will knowing you would immediately share him wif us--bringing him into the fold, thereby obtaining information about OUR on-line city :o

Remember all the newbies who pass through, obstensibly run off by Em? B) .......they could really be taking notes about us back to their mother ship.

The cross-dressing could all be a ruse to throw us off ;)

Don't we all just love a Manhead in uniform? :lol:

If you know that this is the single most important thing that you can say about yourself in the introduction segment of Jeopardy. .. ...... .I think you're in some trouble.

Someone needs to quickly go through as many of the newbie profiles as possible in the next few minutes - - time is of the essence - - and jot down ALL user names belonging to individuals from Burundi. Also, those whose avatar pics are of tiny little bushmen. . . . .....

mayor of an online city? :blink: does that mean....I could say, when asked about my employment status, that I was once reigning Queen of an online madhouse, and I plan to work very hard to become queen again in about 50 pages? :lol:

Hi Bevel! Am feeling quite wistfully jealous of yer mum's delish French-Canadian stuffing! sounds so romantic..... :)

am at work....doing nothing......Weezee's boyfriend is coming in to bring us lunch (whihc I'm not eating)

Yes . . . I believe this pic reveals the true origin of Sam Hill. It explains why he's so stiff and has no limbs and the coloUr of his complextion. He has escaped from Easter Island.

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
