We're staying home for now. No sense in having an entourage back and forth. David will call if it's a go. :)

<TRYING to download a smiley central DEAD MAN emoticon.............will not work :angry: >

<and just HOW do I get me smileys??? what website? it's not working!!!!!!!!!!>

Nobody answered this.....and I'm no expert by any means :unsure:.........pseriously :huh:

I'm skeert to download things, so I google 'free emoticons' and only pick stuff I can click on and hijack, so to speak.....using that little box thing that Jan-knit mentioned. :blink:

Sometimes I think it's a miracle I'm even here! :ph34r:

Alexis, you vex us,

This waiting just wrecks us. . . . ..... :rolleyes:

I think she knows, that wee Alexis, that she has an international audience awaiting her arrival; drama queen already :lol:

mentalpause

*snort*

Menopause.....I went through it at aproximately 8AM on January 3, 2007 when they yanked out all me equipment :rolleyes: No HRT it'all, so the rest of that year was "interesting"--lots of hot and cold and all the rest. I'll tell ya thought--when everything settled down at the end of a year's time or so,

Mark and I petered out last night-

Menopause lasts five years if you don't take HRT, five years if you do,....Eggsacly the same, seems to me; you just feel like you must be making a difference with the HRT :P

Petered out, didja??? If you was down here ya probbly wouldn't say that. :lol: :lol: They use Peter for Dick interchangeably here, :o

Well.......back to the hospital :rolleyes:

......I think this one's the real thing :P

We're staying home for now. No sense in having an entourage back and forth. David will call if it's a go. :)

Now you's making sense. And then she'll just pop out when you're not looking :o

My garden had a nice drink last nite whilst we slept and this morning the sun is trying to peep through. Now that's the way the world is supposed to be arranged :D

Visited a physio named Sven yesterday to see if we could do something to get this rickety bod moving again, now that I have my new electric slat bed inserted into the old bed frame..aaahh!! :D No more sleeping in the recliner chair!!!! :o Seven years ago we bought two super single slats inserted into a king-size frame just for such an eventuality. T'is obvious now that I won't ever comfortably sleep in a normal bed again(after the 3 months at Tahoe, so might as well enjoy my sleeps at home :D :D

Anyway, Sven has organized a strengthening programme for me and has come up with a brilliant manner of standing whilst prepping food at the counter, which must look funny as hell but works...legs wide apart, "bum" as he calls it tightened up, and lean pelvis against edge of the counter. Takes all the stress off the area of the fracture and the spinous erector muscles. Now mebbe all this "from scratch" gluten free cooking will not be such a chore! :rolleyes::)

Oh, I was AFRAID someone was going to ask this someday. We don't know. I think we're like Seinfeld- a thread about absolutely NUTtin' (emphasis on the NUT!)

The jewels and scepter remain somewhat tarnished tonight. There was no polishing of the royal assets.

Uh-oh....will heads roll? :P

who in hell gets up at 4:30 in the morning in HAWAII?????

Our Geoss- parties till dawn and then goes swimming! She's crazy but we love her!

Extremely cranky that I have to go and represent the TC (my "job") tonight at this function WITHOUT MY BOSS :angry: do NOT want to go.......no no no no NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :huh: Have a zit on my chin the size of a pea.....hair is PSYCHOTIC, and getting worse all the time :( Am VERY cranky, and do NOT want to go ANYWHERE, but most especially doing an activity that requires me to promote something that I think is GNUTS (our youth program).

Whine away and send me a screwdriver! Did it help? ;)

Paddeigh- Glutamination- just plain wrong :angry:I'm sorry it happened. It IS worse when it hasn't happened in awhile....makes you remember how wretched it is. Hope you feel better soon!

There are worse things than inebriation, you know. Sobriety is at the top of my list.

The King hath spoken!

Well.......back to the hospital :rolleyes:

......I think this one's the real thing :P

YAHOO! A new silly will be born (today? tomorrow? next week?). Hopes and wishes for a safe, speedy delivery for mom and wee Alexis!

My mom has been on Premerin for 40 years :huh: Just recently did they at least cut her dosage--and she's in her 70's. Horrifying to me, but "if the doctor says it, it has to be so" <_<

She also has perfect blood pressure, but is on meds for that too.....just in case :o

Egads, that's awful!! Wean her off it...Had one friend who had two mini strokes while on HRT (attributed to the HRT), another who kept upping her doseage because she thought it kept her from aging and ended up with a DVT :o Wish I had never taken it; only did the Premarin for a year then did the "natural" stuff. Still sweated and palpitated just the same.

Waaay Keeoool!!! Stared at it for a minute.....just watching all that info. phlash before my eyes! Boggles the mind....but would be a great meditation enhancer!! :P

Waitin' patiently for the new psille arrival....right there with KurlyNaNa! :D

Poooooor poooor ol' GjEyouSS! Havin' to work...in Havaya! Nice you had some free time to have some phun. Would still love to be there too! Even if I had to sit and listen to yer presentation. (yeah, yeah, I was there! Really! You probly couldn't see me cause I was sittin' behind the lady with big hair :P )

Haaaaannnngg on Psuessy, Psuessy hang on! Yeah yeah. Yeah yeah (imagine music notes here).

Pah-tay...hope your poisoning problems are short-lived! Kills me, how sneaky that crap can be!

Speaking of Crap.....I found that sympathy that Em-in-Em was looking for......in the dictionary....right between *sht* and syphalis! :lol:

Psuess.....Peaches is just fine. We adore her no end!! She still thinks she should be able to balance on 2 feet, and walk that way. She is NOT a lap cat (much to our dismay), and will tolerate being held for short periods, but seems to have a fear of being "held down" (at least that's our feeling). But she loves to have me lay on the floor with her, or on the bed, and we can do the cuddle and purrrrrr that way. Makes me wonder just what her first weeks were like. She is still hunting and dismembering many crickets, exercising her right to cruelty on hapless helpless victims. She also has come to expect that at suppertime she will get her share of whatever we are having......tho' she does not always agree that what we are having is particularly pleasing. <_<:lol:

Wishing happpy, healththy days to you all.

Keep it shiny everybody!

A girlfriend called me not long ago and asked if I wanted to go out for a drink that evening. I couldn't, so after a pause she asked, quite seriously, "Is Jack free to go out for a drink?" :rolleyes:

MSNHeaven-Com(Babies)002.gif

Congratulations, Gramma Leeeesargh!

October 23rd.. .. . . ....so she is right on the cusp - - Libra-Scorpio.. . . . ......

Being born on the cusp could be described as standing on a threshold between two rooms, not exactly in one or the other, with the ability to step either forward or back depending on what's happening in your life. This can be the source of flexibility and complexity, or it can be the cause of a great deal of confusion. Some cusp babies literally feel pulled in two, as the zodiac signs right next to each other are different in element, quality and presentation.

Libra/Scorpio Cusp (October 19-23)

Libra is ruled by Venus, is an Air element and Cardinal (active) in quality. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, is a Water element and Fixed (stubborn) in quality. Libra's gift for love, for balance, and for partnership makes strange bedfellows with Scorpio's tendency for secrets, drama and deception. The best use of all this dynamic energy is to create life transforming, creative relationships between people or organizations.

Sounds like a complex, wondrous li'l girl!! :):)

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol

      The first negative biopsy in 2021 just said "no pathological change" for all the samples, and the second one in 2022 said "Duodenal mucosa with mild reactive change (focal foveolar metaplasia) and preserved villous architecture." So I think Marsh score 0 in both cases, though it's not actually written in the pathology reports. I'm really hoping to get a clear positive result this time, just for her sake.

      Blood results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.
