What does PMS really stand for?

You probably don't need hangers for yer shirts.....just stand 'em up in the closet.

In my case, PMS stands for:

Pheet Mighty Swollen

People May Suffer

Pants May Shrink

and

Personalbodilyharm Maycometoanyonefoolishenoughto Startwithme

And just the thought of opening my closet and seeing my clothes standing at attention like "OOOH, pick me, pick me" cracks me right up! :lol::lol:

Well now, I've heard of cotton/wool blend, but this is ridiculified :blink:

Yes, that's true. Sad, but true.

It's all over but the cleanin'. The steak on the grill my husband cooked was the best thing prepared in this house today. Only managed to get a two-layer lasagne out of it--lost a few noodles in the shuffle. We'll eat that and the soup during the week, but the white chocolate chip cookie bars I made from Pamela's mix won't likely survive the night.

Time to scoop the bunny cage, change laundry

*note to self...FABRIC SOFTENER!!!

and change the sheets and take a shower and pass out from too much sugar in the cookies.

Good lord, I need a drink.

I've 'ad me shower. Made it a cool one to try to reduce the smelling swelling of my feets. Trying to get a comb thru me dred wet locks.

Seriously may indulge in a kahlua after my girl hits the sack ;) But, honestly would rather have a glass of...wine? :huh: What have you'se done to me?

My husband is all geared up to git-r-dun around here, but all I hear when he talks about it is "Blah, Blah, Blah--expensive. Blah, Blah, Blah--hard work."

Went to the home store yesterday to get the rest of the insulation (which I finished today :self-satisfiedsigh:) Also went to the new petstore where I found grain free kitty food. :D

What I don't get, is why the grain free stuff also has to be ultra sh-shi. Like my cat cares if it's made from free range, organic ducks that have been hand fed and given nightly massage while listening to Mozart. Just give me the road kill stew, without wheat - cats'll love it just as much.

Oh, yes...that's what I like. Mmmm--no, no--don't stop. So...creamy. So...silky. Oh. Oh my God.

road-kill without wheat, pseriously, Alfred Kit loves that.......we found some very posh canned cat food at the dollar store, fiddy cents each, with WHOLE pieces of chicken breast in it, very pure ingredients, really almost like people food.

Alfie turns his nose up at it, the little scalawag <_<

All talk about the UAW (current and retired) making concessions to Fiat. Oh mother of all that is holy in this world. Can you say ROBBER BARONS? Can you say OPPORTUNISTIC BASTICHES?

I shall venture out but once again to refill me widdle fu-fu drink.

Jess needs grain-free kitty food. Here a few ideas for dry food:

Wellness CORE (50% protein from turkey, chicken, whitefish and salmon);

Merrick BG (Before Grain) (three single-protein formulas: chicken, tuna & salmon ~36% protein);

Taste of the Wild (42% protein from chicken, venison, salmon and ocean fish).

:lol: :lol:

Nope, you don't need to get out more, Mimms. I made up the term Orange Fuzzy myself. Or, maybe a friend did? I think Fluffy named it. (and I named Fluffy :lol: )

I make screwdrivers, but I have this super-fantastic (and rather ancient) juicer - and it makes the orange juice turn out frothy.....so we call them Fuzzies. ;) I had a picture of them up in my av for a while.....may have to put it up again in recognition of the season coming to a close.

Mygawd, you haven't lived until you've had one of my Fuzzies, in peak orange season!

My friend the Wackl Miss G (Gail) had one, was truly doubting how a screwdriver could be so fabulous. A cynic was she, until she had one. ;)

She sucked it down. Silence after the fist few sips. Then, thrust her shaking hand at me (I am not making this up), and said, "my God......it's like the Kiss of God.....once you have it, you're never the same.......but you always need more and more........."

:lol: :lol:

No one can quite explain the magic of the Fuzzy........it just.....is. :lol:

All right.....I'm calling the Guv'nuh to kill my pests. First thing in the morning.

Got the Wellness, actually. Didn't see the other two. Went to the new pet chain store that opened near the chain home store (and the chain super cheap store wherein I do not shop). There is a pet store on the island, and I like the idea of supporting local businesses, but I just don't believe that the prices have to be marked up that much to support the business. I think they assume people will pay extra to have the local shopping bag (and many people do), but I'm not in the upper 80th percentile of income, so I support the less expensive, local-job-stealing store.

When I'm on the computer, I can watch TV through the crack between the computer cupboard door and the cabinet. There's a plant on the table right there so I'm kinda looking through the foliage. It's like watching House in the jungle.

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link... Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6476019/
    • knitty kitty
      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.
    • knitty kitty
      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.  
    • trents
      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
