I find that dumping a potted plant over near anything that needs to be cleaned works really well. When whoever shows up you greet them with exasperation saying "I just finish cleaning and the cat goes and does this. Do you mind if we just hang out in the other room?"

I have a lot of plants :ph34r: :ph34r:

Great idea! Now all I need are some potted plants and a cat. I took 5 min. to vacuum area around "his" chair. Thats all it took! You gotta love a man who's clueless.

Ok sillies--I keep having this dream where I'm walking down a street in the downtown area of my hometown. All is well until I enter a store--then no matter which door I try to exit I don't recognize the area. Suddenly, it's a desolate, industrial kind of place. No one around. :unsure:

Whoooooaaaaaa.. . .. ..... . .Pahteigh, this is eerie and much unsettling.......like somethin' outta Dickens. Tthings are suddenly not too phunnee. . .. . ... :unsure:

Yes, being naked in such landscapes has happened to me in the odd dream. I'm trying to hide behind my hands, the side of a building, a large camel that suddenly lumbers in front of me. . . .... :huh: . . .... . ... . .. :lol:

Perfect for a deppresso. In this dream, do you know what kind of store this is? Do you feel that your future looks flat ( in real life). Are you in any kind of rut? Do you still have things to look forward to? Do you feel at all kind of locked into your currant situatio, even if thats a good place? I dunno.

Have you got yer clothes on? If you have the dream tonight, try to arrange it so you are naked. I'm curious to see if your nakedness brings about anything interesting, because mine never does. I just stand there, trying to cover up. Nothing changes, moves....no one looks. Gah. <_<

:rolleyes:

hmmm.....a humourless ranger and we are already dangling yeti ballcocks. Things get scary quick around here.

Gawd.....did our yeti have a ballcock? How soon we forget......just trying to picture........ :lol:

. . . also, there's a money back guarantee. If you find that you are not enjoying yourself, just return your unused portion of the thread and someone . . . not me . . . will refund your purchase price (less delivery fees, of course).

There is a new promotion happening as we speak - - you can get a trade-in on a new thread, but only if you act within 24 hours of your first post here and you will not get an extended warranty. If the new thread gets yanked due to profanity or trolling, you're outta luck. So Sooooozan, you have a day to think it over. . . ..

:lol:

Ballcock, ballcock. Yes, I'm beginning to like that word. Gotta run. I've got to quick do something obvious in the house so DH thinks I did something today! Later.

Wow. This is sounding good.. . . ....think Susan is a keeper. . . . ..

A Morrocan walks into a bar and the bartender asks " Why the long fez Abduhl?" I think I've got to do more than duck on that one.

I'm off to fix dinner (something I really do). Thanks for the laughs. By the way, even though I read serious books, the dumber the comedy, the more I like it. Airplane still cracks me up, even though I've seen it many times. Later.

SAM HILL MANHEAD!! Oh, I miss him.......the way he used to sit on my dining room table, staring off, his silver/pewter face strong and impassive...... . . . :lol:

He sits in my buddy's front window, warding off bad men of ill intent. Truly, it's very funny -- he has not been moved from this location since I gave him to her last year.

Gad....how do we explain all of this to our Newbie? . . . . ...Well, Susan, y'see, my husband was in his work parking garage one morning last fall, and he spotted something kind of shiny over in the garbage collection area, and... ....well, .. . ......

OK. It's Sat morn and I'm not awake yet. The only glasses I can find slide off my face when I look down. I am computer (almost) illiterate. And you want me to go to page 1512. How do you do that? One page at a time? Does this silver man have anything to do with a garage in Washington left perhaps by a man in a trenchcoat who refers to himself lovingly as Deep Throat? If not, Please instruct. I had a grin on my face yesterday - could that be the beginning of an attack of funny?

Good Saturday mornin' sillies B)

I can see Bevvie dancing in a phloaty skirt, barephoot. :rolleyes: A beautiphul, phree spirit :D

Good "going back", Em!! Our sillie newbies can now read the saga of Sam Hill Manhead in it's entirety--surely required reading for all sills. :P

What else.....Nik--send DC wif tea toot-sweet!!! A proper English tea sounds so much nicer than me (hole-y) tea bags :lol:

Last night just as I was going to sleep, I turned and saw the biggest black bug on the wall, up near the ceiling :o I woke up Mark :P who tried to swat it with a rolled up newspaper, but only succeeded in knocking it to the floor--where it ran under the bed. Then it just disappeared :huh:

I, of course, over-reacted and could not possibly sleep with this thing at large in the room :lol: , so we moved the bedside tables and the bed away from the wall and still could not find it. I had the vacuum cleaner on, wand attachment in hand ready to suck it up and get rid of the bag--but got naught :angry:

Mark, of course, fell back to sleep immediately <_< --I, however kept the TV on and watched for a return of the thing for half the night......

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
