Sillies- I am here at work again--feels like I was just here! Weekends should be 3 days! Oh Queen can we arrange something?

You want an 8 day week?????.......Don't think I got clearance to do that.

Oh.....and by the way......killing cactus?.....child's play, dearie. Ain't nothin I can't kill! :P

'Sorry, this video is no longer available' :angry:

WHAT in hell was it???.... a slingshot or summat????? :unsure::lol:

:P You were reading my mind! After watching it I thought, Hmmmmmmm....a slingshot would be better ;) So I googled, but none of the human slingshots would actually let the person go! <_< What'sup with that????

Two days ago, our dryer would not drain....it was half-full of water until DH banged around down there for a hour or so, and then it finally emptied.

:huh:

:blink:

I think I know the problem..........that's not a dryer......it's a washing machine! :P .................why do you have water in your dryer? :unsure:

:lol: ....Mrs. H........for a minute I was thinkin....who put me on youtube????

Well, some good news. And hello :)

Wellllllll......look what the cat dragged in! Good to see you Ryan! :D......and if anyone needs a summary, you'll hafta talk to Ptaughmnus!

Me cold is still hangin on, but am able to go without the decorative accessory of tissue (TP, actually), shoved up the nose, so I'm making a little progress.

Tinkerbell looked at me quite strangely last night while getting comfy on me chest.......

^^

:huh:

:lol::lol: Oh, Leeeeesar! Man, of course! I just knew there was something substantially wrong with the whole situation.......bien sur.......water goes through the washer.. . . . . .. I shouldn't have ANY water AT ALL in me dryer!

Hell, it's much worse than I thought!

:huh:

:lol:

I have early childhood memories of my mom sitting by the pool, or working in the kitchen, or out puttering in the yard, with two small pieces of toilet paper rolled up and stuck into each nostril.. . . . . . . she apparently had a lot of nosebleeds. This was one of those now bizarre but at the time completely normal pictures that appeared constantly through my childhood. In fact, she would show up for parent-teacher interviews at my school and I would say, "Mom! Where's yer kleenex?"....I suppose those pieces of tissue completed her.. . . . . . . . :huh::rolleyes:

Anyways, Leeesar.......is this the type of tissue accessory to which you are referring?

Dunno if anyone could pull them off like me mom. . . . . . . . . :lol:

Even better.......for the total effect you need to take the entire tissue (or 2-3 squares of TP), loosely wad up one end, shove it up yer nose, letting the rest hang down to yer chin. :lol:

Not only does it allow for maximum absorbency (too tight a wad would hinder this), but it also is an artisic expression of exactly how miserable you feel. Tinkerbell obviously has no appreciation for art. Hubby thinks it's sexy :D ...................well.....that's what he said, anyway :unsure:......hmmmm....didn't want a kiss, though :huh:

Of course, this is only an acceptable adornment in the privacy of your own home. :rolleyes:

To all of the above . . . and am adding my own . . .

Does the runny drip ever wake you up at night???? So Sunday night it kept waking me up . . . so upon sticking kleenex up my nostrils, I go back to sleep and have dreams about walking around in public where I have forgotten to remove the kleenex shoved up me nose. . . :P:lol:

The phrase "Hit the nail on the head" comes to mind . . . especially that extra detail about too tight of a wad impedes absorbancy . . . I know that you know exactly what I'm going through!!! :lol::lol:

I hate that. It wakes me up every time. <_<

I've never tried the tissue up the nostril--I usually just put some on my pillow and hope I don't roll over :P

And as I sit here at the computer, once again having to give in to this ritual, I have just realised the function of the excess tissue..........once the wad becomes soaked, you still have enough tissue to blow before you throw it away! :D

Did you take that pic of the humming bird??? I do so love hummingbirds . . . we only get the ruby-throated here and they are quite territorial. I was standing next to my feeder one day and I had one try to chase me off . . . cheeky little bugger.

We also only get the ruby throated...I guess the rest are smart enough to stay in warmer climes! I have taken a lot of pics of the hummers. Love my digital camera!!! We like to grow Dolicos vine (also called Hyacinth bean plant). The hummers love the flowers. You can stand almost within touching distance of them. We catch them resting on the vines while feeding. So cute.

Hya Ryan! So nice to meet you. Looking forward to hearing about your adventures.

Pah-ti....you are invoking memories of our move for me! I've lost count of all of the visitors we've had since we moved here. My mom and dad talk of coming down almost every time I talk to them. It's only an 8-9 hour drive for them...most of my family is in NY. Telehubbys family is about 4. Unfortunately my son is in Arizona...too far...but we talk on the phone often. I'm so glad that your visit was so enjoyable. Sounds like some amazing pholks in your fam!

Still catching up here....

I thought EVERYONE has had experiences like this! Miserably hiding at home with TP appendages hanging from the phace! :lol::lol:

Get out a pen and paper.........very important, detailed instructions on the proper installation of tissue for maximum snot absorbancy.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it. 
    • xxnonamexx
      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
