Hi Bev :wub:

Angus and Sadie sitting in a tree, K - I - S - S - I - N - G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thinking of your Dad and Sis, Em

Laura, I looked for E but I didn't spot him :lol:

Lucky him to be in the middle of it all!! Although I don't know, I kind of liked watching it in the comfort and warmth of me own home, no crowds, no frigid cold.

I so agree about the pressure and expectations he will be under. It's a stressful job as it is, look at how much Clinton and Bush aged, it was like an accelerated aging process for both of them.

There is no other country on this earth I'd rather be than right here! I'm blessed to have been born here. We are among the very richest people of the earth, and often take our freedoms, health and safety for granted. We should all be proud.

swear to God, at this point, if I were he, I would go and curl up in a corner from the PRESSURE and the expectations.... :unsure::lol:

Which is why, perhaps, you should NOT run for President of the United States. :lol: I'm thankful that somebody wants to do it . . . have I mentioned lately how I dislike being in charge??

I've got two BIL's that went. Here's the report as given by my FIL:

BIL and his girlfriend are downtown on the DC Mall this morning preparing to participate in the Inauguration of Barack Obama. They came in by bus last night/this morning and got into the DC area about 5:00am. They found a way to bypass the worst Metro Station congestion and got downtown by about 8:00am. Now they are walking from Chinatown (9th and G St.) to 24th St. by the Lincoln Memorial and around to the south side of the Mall to watch the swearing-in ceremony. They report that it is all good. They are well fed. All of the stores and restaurants along the periphery of the Mall are open and serving and there are 7,000 port-potties along the Mall.

Bev - hows come you got Sadie again . . . Just a visit, or did sumptin' happen??

My news . . . I gobba code . . . I'm aw stuffy . . . I'll try not to breave on you.

Phunnee that you mentioned this quote of Soooozie's, Janet.....as soon as I read it, I immediately thought of you were the news to hit you that, in fact, you had become our Monarch for 100 pages. Curling up, shaking and rocking......"it's too much....what they expect of me...it's tooooo much". .. . . ....

:lol:

Take good care ub yer code, Janed. . . . . ..

What has struck me most was them mentioning the PEACEFUL transfer of power. Made me realize how much we take this for granted- so many other countries do not have this!!!!!!! For this, I am grateful.

Yes . . .. . ......I wonder how it pans out in Burundi?. . . ...

Oh oh oh Yo Yo Ma...........I'm gonna die- the man is a GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I, too, Luuuuurve this man . . . . . . .. :):)

Brought a tear to *my* eye - and I ain't even AMERICAN!!!!! :lol: (sad cow cries at everything! :rolleyes: )

Thanks, you guys. :wub::wub:

Well, my dad had the same laproscopic surgery this aft that my sister had two days ago.......but they found a big stone in his bladder, which they proceeded to annihilate with a laser. Went further up, and saw a BUNCH of stones high up in one kidney. This may require major surgery, so I don't know if they will do this on a frail, 84-year old man. :(

We'll know more tomorrow.

Even post-op, lying there morphined up, he still had me larfin' . .. . .. . .. . :lol:

Keep us posted!

Shaggy lobster legs :lol:

Lobster pie?!?!?! Is it like a pot pie with lobster, summat like that?? Sounds good, I'll be there....can't stink anymore than salmon :lol:

Meant to say earlier I love how Sooze says her "sils" :lol::lol:

So Sils, um, very stressed over ebay at the moment.....there is a technical problem with the shipping calculator, my items are showing up with $30 shipping on each thing so it's driving the bidders away. I contacted eBay and they won't do anything about it. This is going to totally affect the outcome of my auctions :(:(:(

Can't you add a note to your description explaining the computer glitch?

I did, but I am affraid they aren't even clicking on the item to look inside at the description when they see what the shipping is.

I would take the shipping completely off but can't now as each item has one bid already, and you can't revise once you have a bid.

Em, saying prayers for your dad. Somehow it always seems harder when it's your parents! Good that he's keeping his sense of humor. Hope all turns out well.

Lobshter! One of the things I miss about upstate NY is that we used to go to Maine once in a while in the summer. There is nothing like fresh l.o.b.s.h.t.e.r.!!!! I once went out on a boat with a lobsterman and got a "tour" of how they catch them and lots of info. about them. Pretty kool. (Were they screaming while hanging onto the little fuffy legs??) :lol:

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
