Did this neighbor move or did he just not put up his display this year??

He moved. A very large Indian family moved into the house . .. . . nothing exciting on the front lawn anymore. But wonderful cooking smells when I walk by. . . .. . ..

Are you going to the phab place that we all met for our Psummit, POeter?

Holy crap.....Sophie and I are going to a baby shower next month, and on the invitation it says that our pregnant friend is "Registered at Toys R Us".

Gads. Call me old-fashioned, or just old, but what's the world coming to? Women are registering now for baby stuff? I dunno....just so impersonal, no real thought goes into any gift-giving anymore, no one has time . . .. . .

Has this been going on for a while with baby showers?

Perhaps I'm simply way outta the loop. . . . .

Ummmm . . . yep . . . my crowd all registered at Baby's R Us . . . and so did we . . . keeps you from getting a lot of duplicates and having to take it back and return it which is not something you want to do when you're 8 months preggers.

Somehow I didn't notice that Niknik was appointed in absentia for three days! Did Nik happen to notice? Perhaps she did and just let us spiral away!!!!! :lol:

I also think this is very impersonal as well as saying I don't want your idea of a gift. If it were me I'd just go with my gut feeling and get what I wanted to get for the baby. Just my two cents worth :)

YUM!! That pizza was indeed awesome... . ...

I'm out for a bit...but will check in soon! :)

Yep, this is exactly what I'm gonna do. I cannot imagine going into Toys R Us, looking at an extensive list of items, half of which I won't even touch or see, choosing whatever thing falls into my price range, and having it boxed and delivered to her house.

:huh:

Hanh?

What have we come to.......?.....no time to search for a heartfelt gift that YOU think of, and pick out, and touch? If she needs to return it for whatever reason, I will absolutely do that for her.....

There. Okay.....decision made......

Back to mini, flurrying posts!!

Salmon packets for dinner again folks....yep they were just that good I have to have them again :D

elye Community Regular

Hi, Jooooles! Eat yer salmon in front of the computer, puleeeeze.......

Green12 Enthusiast

Yes, it seems the gift giving for baby showers is very specific (much like weddings) where in the invitation you get a little card to where they are registered.

On the one hand I can see that it helps give the parents to be the chance to request what they really need, instead of having a bunch of stuff they might not want/use, or as Janet said duplicates

....but yeah on the other hand it's impersonal and kind of against old etiquette to ask for your gifts :lol:

Hey! I see Barack's been travelling on the whistle-stop train to Washington. Apparently, several hundred people from Ottawa arranged a huge tour bus to head down and meet him there. .. .

Green12 Enthusiast

Reading through Lisa and Theresa's posts are cracking me up!!

They've gone MAD!!!!!!!!

:lol:

Emily will you want to kill me if I say I am going to watch the Sens game tonight?!?!?!

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
