But seriously, did any one here realize that cows and deer stand north to south? :blink::blink:

Um, I was just told from infancy onward, incessantly when we were driving in the countryside, that when a bunch of cows are lying down it is going to rain. :huh:

chocolate........well I am going to Target later.......p'raps just a wee portion (lately I am finishing off entire BAGS/pints/containers of things in one day - my binging is out of control and cravings - off the charts :ph34r: )

Cows facing north south :blink: must ponder this next time I'm driving through Los Banos

YES! brilliant idea for Tea's deer issue! A gigantic magnet-vortex to pull them away!

I miss SArah too - haven't heard a thing. :(

my Kitteh IS the cutest thing ever - except for Weez :wub:

I will argue that I have the two cutest pets alive :wub::lol:

they wrestle a good two hours every morning and then - snuggle at night - Kit curls up in a ball with Weez in my bed, every night ♥♥♥

It is supposed to pour rain all day tomorrow 'round here.....guess there are a lot of cows lying about the greater Ottawa area .. . . . . . .......

The rain started here about three hours ago, and it is expected to last into the weekend. But we need it--it has been very dry here.

tornado!? scary!

yeah, welcome to Texas! I do love me a good southern lighting storm....did y'all know that I lived in Tulsa for a year? we don't talk about it too much :ph34r: but I do remember once, whilst walking, I was about three minutes away from home, and a storm hit abruptly....by the time I got home, I was soaked clear through to me undies :unsure: LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!

in other news......

Um.......can someone please tell me why the kitteh will eagerly scarf down a half a can of catfood in the morning, and flat out REJECT the very same can of remaining food in the evening? <_<

Quite picky fer a street urchin :lol:

and - this amuses me: whilst I put the canned food into the bowl I always break it up into tiny bits, for ease of eating for Kitteh..and then chortle to myself as I remember that....these are the creatures who tear legs and ears off wee critters they find in the yard, crunch the skulls, tear them limb from limb and then bring the remainder into the house...I think they can handle solid chunks of canned gruel cat food

Good Morning, Psillies!

Well, all this talk of cats and their presentation of love-gifts........Jack was the recipient this morning (we have a cat door in the basement, so over the years have encountered many lovely things in the house, dead and alive.....birds, many mice, a young squirrel, two bunnies :( ). At 5 this morning, Jack heard Bryce in his room making very loud, strange noises.

He turned his light on and the cat had a nice, big, wiggling mouse in his mouth. Jack yelled, Bryce dropped the mouse and trotted out, I'm sure thinking "All right, there you are, my gift for you........why are you shouting at me?"

The Ripper picked the wriggling mouse up in about fifty kleenexes :o and put it in the toilet. Now the toilet is plugged. <_<

CATS.. . . . . . . . . . .......

Yep, plenty of rain here, too, POeter. .. . ...getting rid of the last o' that psnaough!

Paddeigh hope your weathering ok--

We are getting rain today-I am guessing it to be all day--dreary day. But I am off tomorrow so that is ok. I have my annual womens retreat to the gyn. Which I am not dreading for once since I want to get all checked over and see how things are since we have not gotten pregs yet.

My college buds are getting together this weekend with us. Always a good time. :):)

More kittey love-gifts. Can;t remember what else...am brain-dead this am. BUT I'm off the see the wizard. The Park-service is doing cut-backs :( and we have yet to see just how it is going to affect us. Does not look good :angry: Surely something good will come out of the bad....it always does (just not as fast as I'd like it to, usually).

Hope your day's shiny-bright in spite of the gloomy weather! :D

um.. . . . . . . . . . .......BOYS.. . . . . . . . . . .......

:lol::lol:

YES, boys.....but actually, I remain very impressed with Jack's mature handling of the situation. DD could barely hear Jack's recanting of what happened - -she was screaming and running away. Thank gawd Bryce did not wander into her room at 4:50 am. . . . ...

As The Ripper was recounting what happened, he said, "When I was prying the mouse out of Bryce's mouth, it was all wiggly, and I was going to put it out the cat door, but it was SO wriggly in the kleenexes that I thought I wouldn't make it and the mouse would jump out of my hands, so I threw it right in the toilet". :lol::lol:

Just kills me. So logical and grown-up. Good job, Jack. You certainly did NOT inherit any of those character traits from ME. . . . .....

Alas, me affair wif Steve is winding to a close.....I was over there in me jammies this morning but will bring the rest of the phood back over here this afternoon. It was phun whilst it lasted :rolleyes:

The affair is over. . . .. . .....you shared some good pyjama time, some food. . . .....

Patteigh, you haven't described Steve to us. Is he big? Standard size? Anything built-in? Is he white? :rolleyes:

Tareeeesuh, hope everything stays okay with these cutbacks. Keep us posted.

YAY! Amanda's got her yearly gynecological adventure! Just love these appointments.. . . . .... <_<<_<

:o Nik doesn't know informercials??????? probably just an American bit of buffoonery......they are 30-minute slots of time on TV quite late at night (usually begin around 2 am on network stations) selling some sort of crap.....absolutely fascinating, exaggerated spokespeople - current fave is the Jack Lalanne Power Juicer and that reeeeeeeeeeeeeally over-animated infomercial gal - forgot her name - must post link :lol:

Oh Tea, yes, park service is EVIL and we are experiencing those cutbacks as well.....still fightin' wif 'em ;)

OMG - I don't know why this didn't occur to me until just this minute - - Patti's refrigerators are named after my dad and my stepdad :o

my dad's name was Steve (Stephen) and my stepfather is Wayne :unsure:

what does it mean??? what can this mean?

and why did it take me this long to figure this out? :lol: :lol:

:wacko:

Jack flushed a live mouse down the terlet? WOT? :huh: poor, wee thing :lol:

      @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
