Ah, yes.. . .. . I'd forgotten about the Medical Marijuanna........ . . . . :P

Actually, I have heard that the government-issued stuff is anything BUT good... . . very weak, like smokin' crabgrass er sumfin'. Typically the bureaucrats have trouble getting most things done efficiently and effectively -- hand them over the job of growing good-grade cannabis? It is to laugh. . . . ..... <_<

But yes, that'd perhaps be a bonus for some who want to snatch up a Canadian or two for Christmas - - access to crappy weed..... .....but weed, nonetheless... . ...

A fine bleary mornin' to you all.

School is done, just waitin' for the grade. Called someone to finish my kitchen so that's off my to do list, two more performances (had people sitting on the stairs last night. Six sold out shows in a row :o :o :o )

Got up this morning and was finally capable of seeing what state my house is in and almost went back to bed. Jeez Louweez things go downhill fast when they're ignored. I had to buy more socks and undies last weekend because I hadn't done wash in weeks. Did mange to do some over the week last week and now every horizontal surface has a pile of clothes on it. I sort of look for the color scheme to decide where to dig for what I want to wear (hmmm, lots of blue, I bet the jeans are in there...).

Cat boxes are overflowing, chicken coop reeks, junk mail everywhere, cleaned out kitty tins and water bottles and other recyclables need tending to, I seem to have consumed a fair amount of wine based on the empty bottles stacked near my chair....... Gads what happened here???

I need to consume enough coffee to counteract the margarita I had last night (I accidentally drank all the tequila first and they had to bring me more) before I can manage anything.

Yep . . . same here . . . what with the lice-fest, we've been doing a lot more laundry but we're seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. Skeeter is "officially" done wif all her treatments. Now we're just waiting (and checking every so often) to see if any more pop up.

Where can a get meselph me own Canadian . . . I suppose it's going to have to be a black market situation . . . maybe one will just happen to "fall off the truck".

And once I get myself a Canadian, will he/she help with the laundry? . . . or do I need to get a Patti Texan for that?

Is it too early to start drinking? Is it too early to go back to bed? Anybody here just drink in bed?

Made it through the reds to the second layer of blacks. Decided I needed a second pot of coffee to continue (did you know that clean black laundry is the prime napping spot for white felines?).

Don't have any creamer so I'll be using Bailey's to protect my stomach from all the extra acid in the java.

hmmm drinking in bed....... if my sheets were anything resembling clean I'd be tempted. I have no idea what all that grit I woke up in this morning is, but I don't intend to sleep in it again tonight. I believe the clean sheets are at the bottom of the stack. An incentive to keep digging.

Why in hell do I have so many clothes anyway?

Ya know, when you think about it, that would be a very efficient way to go.....

So glad The Skeetster is done wif the treatment--meant to ask about that but the head is a sieve lately.

Jess--I wish I lived closer to you....I love a challenge :lol: Just ask me kids :P

Anywho, sounds like both of youse are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. :D I know yer grades are gonna be boffo ;)

We're off to mail the last of the Christmas gifts this afternoon--it's a beautiful day here sunny and about 60 for the high B) A whole heck of a lot better than in the NE--which we got outta just in time :rolleyes:

You just reminded me that I never washed my pillows from the last time I spilled wine while drinking in bed. I'm sure those are at the bottom of some stack of something as well. May be easier just to buy new pillows at this point.

Woweeee.. . ....... :lol: ... . Jyesss's place sounds like a ....funhouse er sumfin'.. . .....lotsa coloUrful things everywhere ya turn around -- some things covered in wine, others in cat hair, grit, Bailey's. . . . ....... Sounds like you don't need to pour yerself a drink - - just walk around the rooms and lick things as you go....

:huh::lol:

Where can a get meselph me own Canadian . . . I suppose it's going to have to be a black market situation . . . maybe one will just happen to "fall off the truck".

I think we are expensive....you should wait until the new year sales -- you might get two-for-one specials. Or scratch and dent sales, where you'll find a decent Canadian who is a little ugly er sumfin', but still can do yer chores. . ...... :lol:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein. Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat...

      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...

      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,...

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      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.
