Good Morning, Quiet psillies!!

Crap....Just TOO quiet around these parts. ....I'm gonna hafta do some major recruiting. I think we should somehow pass a Forum Rule that new members must make an appearance in Psillyville to have their post count activated. The laws of addiction would settle in, and the vortex would begin to claim many new hapless victims.

:lol:

Must get on The Ripper for a new ponderable. . . .......

It has been SUSPICIOUSLY quiet <_< <_< Em- Love your sleepy substandard poodles!!!!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:

The weather has been so gray here..........where is SPRING????????????

Mornin' sillies B)

Ugh--no sillie fer me, but had to poop in. It's going to be a nice day here--mid 70's and sunny. I took a walk yesterday and noticed how hot the sun is for this time of year, even though it was only about 70 degrees.

Have a good trip, Jan-it--see you when you get back :)

Amanda--keep us posted on John, I'm glad that they identified the problem and it can be taken care of--how are you feeling?

"Frybaby" :wub: This must mean Brian's a "Frydaddy". :P

Love to all--

Have a great day, sills :D

Morning Sillies-

A very dreary rainy day and windy too--although it is in the 60's so at least it is warmer....

John is hanging in there-going for a HIDA scan on Tuesday--he has 2 large gall stones...but right now he is barely eating since everything bothers him even stuff that is not supposed to.

I am doing ok. I started new antiboitics the other night--still got some green in me (yes I know TMI) I also have been getting dizzy which I think is a side effect although it happens midmornings. I take the meds at night--but it might be all the sinuses draining.

We are having our yearly Childrens Miracle Network Basket Raffle today- I hope to win- you would not believe the baskets. They are huge!!!! There is one that is a pack n play filled with stuff for a new baby--I bid on that and the two backyard kits with grills.... among others :)

Drawing is at 2 today.

Rain here too. And more rain.

Where have all the psillies gone?

Yeah, this is really poopy.. . ..... .. ....everyone's busy, or going away, or maybe sick .. . . . .. .

'Tis a quiet place, our Psillyville.

I just spent $403.00 on two new summer tires. :blink::angry:

This is decidedly NOT psilly.

I'm back in statistics purgatory. I'm hoping I'm not actually expected to DO some of this stuff :blink: :blink: :o

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I've been meaning to post for SO long . .. . . .me brain's fallen & can nae get up . ...me psilly too . . . .

I do so miss having some silly in me w/ any regularity. It's been so long now.

The last time I could reasonably expect any 'tomorrow' to be a good day was at the close of the GREAT six months - Dec '07.

Wtf changed? I've tried new pans for a while now & that doesn't seem to be it.

I never would've moved back to SJ had I not been so sure the improvement would continue. In Sep '07 I was 90% sure I'd be able to work full-time w/in 2 or 3 months.

I'm struggling far too much w/ just this part-time gig. But THAT may not be an issue for much longer. Last month, the boss said they're expecting the group workload to decrease and my contract won't be extended.

They have gotten one unanticipated extra project since he told me that, but it still seems unlikely I'll be extended beyond april 20th.

So I probably have just 17 more days of work. :(

It'd be easy to blame the lackl (hehe) on that, but I've been void of any silly for longer.

Actually, strangely feeling a slight uptick these last 2 days, after being affected by a carpet-cleaning chem exposure at work. Stayed home dizzy & nauseous & had weird & voluminous poop .. ...and incredibly felt a bit better the next day.

I'm still mostly keeping up here.. . ..but it's been far too easy on some of these days!!!

Hope all the silly's situations w/ the loved ones (& selves) get better all the time. :wub:

Did you not eat during that time? Maybe there's some small thing still bugging you and you accidentally carpet-detoxed.

Hmmmm good thought Jess . ..it's hard to say . .. .ugh can't make sentences right on the complicating factors . ...

elye Community Regular

Hiya, Ptaoughmghmn!! :):wub:

LACKL! :lol: ....but :( , too. . ... ....

Yes, Jess's query makes sense. . .. . . ..you weren't eating, you were cleaning yourself out at both ends, and immediately afterward you have felt markedly better.............sounds like some noxious thing hasn't been there for a couple o' days!

Great to hear from you, Tom!

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

My gawd, it HAS been quiet......I had only three pages on which to catch up to catch up ON.......

:blink:

speaking for meself, well, I was quite busy, but then not busy, and then got kinda sad....

I've decided - am being most serious here - that I only have two good weeks a month and then, once ovulation starts, I almost feel that I walk over a cliff and into an abyss. The fun Soozle is gone.......it becomes dark and awful for two weeks.........WHAT IN HELL AM I TO DO???????? :angry: I have had it with this.......need hormones checked but have no faith in doctors to provide the right thing.........HARRUMPHHHHHHFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

It exuded a very strong, thick smell, and by the time the priest got around the coffin twice, he was starting to stagger and smile a little.

Crap, I do believe he was stoned.

He walked verrrrrrrrrrry strangely to the back of the church, leading the fray, smiling, appearing like he was talking to himself.

It was just what I needed. Peeps, I'm afraid I pulled a Mary-Tyler-Moore-at- Chuckles-The-Clown-Funeral. Began larfing. Kept larfing.

Man. Not good.

:lol: I did love this

LEESARGH!!!!!!!!!! :wub: Frybaby - LOVE that - - love the good reports on the book!!!!!!!!

I hope at my funeral everyone laughs so hard they all pee their pants.

I don't want you to die EVER but......I'd love to be at yer funeral ;)

Gah! Jess! Can we die together?? This sounds fantastic, and exactly what I would like to plan.....my family would be SO compliant in this -- in fact, I will be saving a lot of my dad's wardrobe for any individuals to wear.

The Orange jugs can HOLD the flowers.

Our bodies can enter the church on Care Bear floats.

During the music, when people stand they must hold a public-restroom hover.

I was looking at that crutch-tip.....do you know, they will make PERFECT candle-holders?

dear gawd :lol:

Em, carried in on a Care Bear Phloat.......this is just fantastic..........

EM!!! What's going on???...is he a cOeliac????

:huh: um - did I phorget summat? who is she talking about?

Crap....Just TOO quiet around these parts. ....I'm gonna hafta do some major recruiting. I think we should somehow pass a Forum Rule that new members must make an appearance in Psillyville to have their post count activated.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep.  One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem.  Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read, do a sudoku or some other small task, and then go back to bed when she felt sleepy again.  I can't think it did her any harm - she lived  well into her nineties. Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/
