Leeeeesa! Thinkin' about you. . . hope today is better. :)

Today is better, thanks! I don't think my wackl is up to par, but at least I'm not drowning the keyboard.

I actually, really, seriously want a boob job now. :ph34r: Please give your thoughts.

I have actually thought about this at times. As a rule, I am against them, because they are unnecessary for so many of the women who get them.......and then they usually end up looking so obviously phake. But I wouldn't mind having.......well.........boobs. Nothing too showy........just enough to look normal. Of course, it's a moot point, cuz I'll never have the money for it.

I vote YAY!!! DOOOOO IIIIIITTTTT!!!!!! Then I can live vicariously thru you! :D

That'll be easy-breezy as long as you don't start w/ early afternoon champagne. :ph34r:

<_<

<AHEM>........we've been thru this before..................she is NOT easy!!!! :lol:

Absolutely LOVING all of the Birthday Boob advice!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

But - my mom took one look at me today and reaffirmed - an EYE JOB is what's quite necessary here. :blink:

I can barely see today with such drooping of the upper lids. Might even be covered by insurance......

more on that later!!!!!!

And a happy birthday to our phavourite old, middle-aged hag!

I'm not touching your boobs, Susie. That is, I'm not getting involved in that question.

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: x 50

PeOter--Step away from Soosie's boobs

Suz--if you're an old hag, I'm Methuselah! My honest response to your question.....life is short--you want the new boobs, and have a way to make it happen, then go fer it.

Consider this advice yer birthday present

:wub: thankx Paddeigh! And - you ain't no stinkin' Methusaleh fer god's sake :lol:

Ya get new boobs, Sooozie, and everyone will be wanting to touch 'em . . . .....an inevitable consequence.

Well, ya need to put up a very clear, detailed av of your boobs for us to see exactly what you're wanting to replace . . .. I am certain that what you've got is completely adequate, but perhaps you'll put a pic up and we will all suddenly scream in chorus, "Oh my gawd, Sooooze.....Invest! Invest!!"

You would all agree, don't worry :lol: My sternum is like - - sheetrock? no - harder and louder

If you've got the money . . . whatever makes you happy.

You know you do "owe" Peter some pics . . . he's shown you all kinds of pictures of his . . . equipment.

I DO NOT got the money and - - no pictures for Poeter :lol:

That'll be easy-breezy as long as you don't start w/ early afternoon champagne.

:o what? who? ME? why, I never :lol:

<AHEM>........we've been thru this before..................she is NOT easy!!!! :lol:

*SNACKLE*

:lol:

Sillies - - I will write a very serious treatise on boobs, aging, plastic surgery and having lost my youth and chased away my deep loves during gluten-brained years - - later.

Meanwhile, tomorrow, my boss has knee surgery, so I am pretty much off (work from home in aft) so - Gail is coming over. It's HER birthday as of midnight. No tequila will be consumed but she has demanded screwdrivers.

:unsure:

:lol:

It's been a simple but glorious birfday. I am so blessed to say that I'm back in the same healthy emotional/mental state I enjoyed exactly one year ago.......I was so content. It left me this summer but.......it's back.

Much love to all me sillies and GRATEFUL THANKS for getting me through this year and that wretched

A$$HAT

who nearly - but not quite - destroyed me.

:angry:

Mornin' All!

Bah, not very psilly 'round here. . ... ....there is some Law, I believe it is Harriet's Law, that states the following: When my husband is away in the wintertime, there will be, in the interim, a constant dumping of snow, followed by ice pellets and freezing rain. I was out shovelling five times yesterday (I'd let 5 cm fall, head out, spend 30 minutes shovelling, go back out after the next 5 cm fell, shovel away....), and then I was up at 6:30, out shovelling the 15 cm that fell overnight.

SO! Our first winter storm....and where is the main shoveller??

In Jolly Ol' England. . . . ..... :angry::angry:

Bah.

But it is beeee-oootiful.

And this is great resistance training - - I can feel my trapezius straining as I hack away at the ice, my biceps working, my deltoids actually screaming. . .. .....

Yep. Great workout. :lol::rolleyes:

A happy late birfday to Gail!! No barphs, I DO hope!

Is that why there are now teeth marks in yer sparkly clean wooden blinds??

I agree wif Htawmn . . . I would've guess "chuffed" to have a differnt meaning.

Busy busy here trying to keep ahead of the Christmas panic.

I just love Urban dictionary!

It feels like a huge load has been lifted off my shoulders, I did the decorating, got my cards off, and finished my present shopping. Just have to wrap them and plan the Christmas Eve/Christmas Day menus, but I am way ahead of the game this year......for once (usually I am way behind)....and it's a great feeling.

How is everybody else today?

Jules has finished her Christmas shopping, decorating, cards?????????? :o who ARE you?????? :lol:

Nik's cleaning madly, Em's shoveling madly, Gianknit and I are both procrastinating Christmas (I am betting she does not feel menstrually and over-binged vomitociousness though) <_<

Hair got fixed today - fairly glorious now but - it's back to brown, pretty much :blink: I kind of love it but.......quite a harrowing and expensive procedure to get here :angry:

      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

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.
