Must announce the arrival of my neice this morning--just about an hour ago.

Well, congratulations! Garsh, I love that new baby smell <<sniff>>

Must lose 10 pounds STAT - summer's coming - gads -

do you guys have cats that just YELL when they want something?

10 lbs.? I wish. Criminey, I haven't been this plump in a long, long time.

From a magnet on my MIL's fridge:

"Ewe's not fat, ewe's just fluffy"

Buttercat doesn't scream--she enunciates. My dog Max cries like a wookie. We call him 'Chewbacca'. It is most pathetic.

No.....sigh. . . .. . . ....just kids. . . . ......an' they're not NEARLY as endearing . .. ..... <_<

I hear ya, sister <<sigh>>

Decapitated squirrels? Y-uck!

Welcome to the ville-age, Cate. What's your kittehs name? Does he/she like catnip? :)

OMG.......The Word has been mentioned.. . . . .!! Rae-chull, you need to put the word "wookie" into a search on this forum....a number of Psillies were involved in an unforgettable thread, before there was a Psillyville. Bevel! I remember your contributions there!! :lol::lol:

Didn't Chewbacca actually do this, as well, in the fourth Star Wars installment?? Forget the name.....they had landed on some bizarre planet, Chewey jumped out of the ship to do his business, ran tnrough some alien brush and scrub. . . . . . . ..

He got back in the capsule, and Luke was SOOO pissed. . . . . . . ..."Ya gotta be more careful, Chewy!!! Ewwwwwwww!!!"

JoDog's home with about a 5 inch incision in her knee that is stapled together. Looks Frankensteinish. Apparently she has not done well with the pain medications . . . great <_< . . . they gave her some antinausea stuff and want me to try and get her to eat before I try and give her anything. Also gave me advice like . . . "Most dogs won't let you, but it would be helpful to ice down her knee three or four times a day" :huh: Also . . . "You need to do physical therapy twice a day by moving her leg in her normal range of motion . . . but be careful, she won't like it and some dogs will bite" :unsure: . . . won't even go into the cost!!! GAHHHHHH!!!!!!! This is going to be a great six weeks.

Ummmm . . . she did eat for me though . . . :) . . . and now she's sacked out.

Jan-it, maybe part of it is that she is just plain more relaxed at home and with you feeding her. Hopefully, this will hold true with the physical therapy, too ;)

Luke= :lol::lol::lol:

My reaction to Max's poopcapades aren't quite so humourous. My neih-bores think his name is Lamotte because they hear me out there yellin "You big dummy!" at him all the time.

And...

one more entry in the "Nipper's Anonymous" (because Emily's was just so freakin...hilarious)

and then I'll stop ;) because Buttercup is not amused.

Big Tom: It's taken over my whole life, man... . . . ..I rarely groom myself when I'm on the stuff. . . . . .... .my purring sounds like sitar music.... . . ..I crap in that box, stare at it, and the thought of burying it in litter just strikes me as hilarious, so I just leave it...... .I leave it, man!!!

Buttercup: My, Big Tom, you are a strapping lad, aren't you? What big...paws you have...:wub:

And now, pee-pull, let's wrap it up. Be sure to come to next weeks meeting--we have a very special guest. A representative from the Flea-Baggers Society will be here to give a talk on "Vaccination Without Representation".

Oh yeah, and Suze said "Crikey", which just struck me as :P:D:lol:

Food's here, gotta go :)

Gooooood Morning, Peeps!

What in hell? NO posts after 8:20 pm last night?? :huh::huh:

The Ripper is joining a new baseball league today, so he has his evaluation in our nearby sports dome this aft. This is a bigger league, comprising a larger chunk of the city than the last community group. He is very excited, for one reason only:

He gets a complete uniform. Pants an' everything.

And.....he must wear a jock.

He did not even know what this was, and has had ensuing mixed emotions.

Good morning everybody :) It is a spectacular sunny morn here in the suburbs of Dey-trois. It was actually warmer outside than inside yesterday for the first time in about 6 months. B)

There is a petite little female mallard duck hanging out in my front landscaping. She and her mate have been around for about a week, which is odd because there aren't really any water sources.

My hubby and I are both taking a vacation day this week to chaperone a 3rd grade field trip to

Greenfield Village/Henry Ford Museum. The beautiful spring weather and the upcoming trip got me thinking about the incredibly rich culture here in my home state. Not much phunny here, but I'd really like to share a bit with you.

My ancestors were mostly Polish immigrants (some Russian and German), my husband's were French, English, and French Canadian Indians. My husbands grandfather was a full-blooded Indian, Ojibwe to the best of our knowledge.

My father retired from Ford, my grandfather from General Motors. One grandpa owned a bar right smack in downtown Detroit, another owned a Jewish butcher shop. The family home on Grand Avenue is legendary. My husband still works for Chrysler, my brother still works on the line at GM.

I was raised on local lore and history--Henry Ford, Greenfield Village, Indian history, lumbering, the story of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Spent much time travelling the state as a child, seeing the sights and nurturing a lifelong love affair with Great Lakes culture.

Michigan has offered innumerable contributions to US history and popular culture--Motown, Industry, workers rights, civil rights. The Fords, the Dodges, Malcolm X, too many artists to list (such as Bob Seger, Eminem, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin.) I've written quite a bit about this theme, both in fiction and non. I wrote a 5 page article about a man named Colonel Waldon, who was a surprising and little known contributor to much of our local infrastructure and national auto/air industries and government; to my pride, excerpts were published in a local paper.

Anyway, just wanted to share a little. If you are so inclined, take a look at the attached link. It tells a bit of the immigrant history of Detroit I mentioned. (I love the first photo, of the Polish immigrants. Looks my peeps!)

Have a great day! I'll be back with some psilly later, after the Sam's Club errand and the kitchen scrubbing :)

Nice history recap. My ancestors were polish immigrants as well, on my mom's side. Dad's family came over on the Mayflower.

Went out with a ferry friend after work yesterday and had several martinis, but alas, no keyboard to pass along the humor.

Loverly morning here. Must aim for something productive.

      Insomnia help

      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,...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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.

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

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.
