Does anyone else dream about dead family members? I had a dream last night that my father and I were in Africa and that security had been told we had a bomb so we had to throw out everything in our luggage?.... :ph34r: :ph34r:

Not a family member, but I dream about a dead person now and again and it's always nice to see him. :)

Actually, last night I slept better than I have in a while--my neck/shoulder didn't wake me up....anyway, I was dreaming a normal, pleasant dream--woke up for a couple minutes, and when I fell back asleep the dream resumed :rolleyes:

YEAH!!! IT'S MONDAY!!!!! Hubby's back at work and dd's back in school!!!! I HAVE MY HOUSE BACK!!!!! I thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown yesterday with everybody barking orders at me from every room in the house. Don't mean to be insensitive, but when dh is sick or down, he's like 3 kids :rolleyes:

Me likey phoul mouth Ptaum! You's speaking my language :lol:

Maybe she'll have even better, more inappropriate, things to say. :)

That's what I was gonna say :P Actually, I was going to say it yesterday buuutttt, computer was acting up!

I'm fairly certain you wouldn't let your kids run wild through the aisles and crowd around the sample stands yelling

"MOM!! CAN WE HAVE SOME??????"

to you while you are still on the other side of the store

But what about the parents who park their carts in the middle of the freakin aisle to wait for the samples what aren't even ready yet. You can't get around them and they won't move till they've got their sample!!! I refuse to go to Costco on Sunday's. It's like the peep's have done their duty by going to church and then the go to Costco and turn EVIL!!! I actually had some lady run her cart right into my 8mo giant pregnant belly trying to get to a sample and she said NOTHING to me as I'm doubled over and she zooms past me :blink:

Quite true. Mine would text me. :P

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I just spoke with her minutes ago, and she is being released this morning. I have to go do some stuphph at the store, and then will be picking her up. She should be home by noon. Thanks, everyone, for your support.

Yeah Peetah and Jacquie!!!!!

I have dreamt about them at the time they died or when they thought they were dieing. Creepy right? When oldest was 2-4 years old he used to see a "Grampa" in his room. It made him feel happy.

I love when everyone goes back to school & work. M(14) tried to tell me how many weeks of school left but I got severe stomach pains & couldn't hear. ;)

I have been at stores & actually caught children as they are falling out of carts. Parents aren't paying any attention. I see 2-3 year olds wandering off for 5 minutes & no parent or big brother folllowing. I keep an eye on them & then when either the kid or the mom notices I can point them in the right direction. I think my boys were about 12 & 9 before I would let them stay at the video section at Costco or Target & only together. I would sneak back & spy on them to make sure they were behaving OK. Must have worked. So far they are good kids - no arrests, babies, bad grades.

Recently at Borders, Mark literally saved a little boy from falling down the escilator. We saw what was likely about to happen and went running over--the mom was in an aisle looking at books and hardly blinked an eye when I told her he was about to take a tumble. <_< Scared the living daylights outta me!

So I microwave my fish stew and I'm sitting in the lunch room to eat it. A woman from the other lab walks by, stops, sniffs, looks concerned and says, sceptically, fish??

Yes, I say, and start to babble about how I didn't think about the smell of microwaving fish....

She waves her hand and says -no, it's fine. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a chemical spill or something.

Know this has been discussed - but I finally tried Udi's white bread.

I am quite certain it was the best ham and cheese sandwich I've had in close to 6 years----by far. (and how has it been that long?!)

Wow. All the buzz on that bread is correct.

can not WAIT to try this bread! am askeert to have it in my house, however.......I can envision toast w/ butter and honey going on at all hours of day and night :ph34r:

Quite true. Mine would text me.

:lol: *snackle*

Nope, just a thud and the bottom fell out :blink:

:unsure: whot? you okay Shroom? :lol:

Mmmm Udi's

A few months ago I was dying to finally retry something w/ yeti yeast - zero since candida "dx" in '05 & last yr bloodtest for candida antibodies was neg (well, highest of 3 meas was an 8 where 10 is "positive") - so poking around WhF saw they'd gotten the much-balleyhooed Udi's.

I was PSYCHED!!!

Before finding the Udi's, I thought I was gonna try something from WhF g f bakery but EVERY DAMN THING THEY MAKE HAS SOY FLOUR!!!!!

<ugh it takes me so long to compose #$%^& sentences these days>

:( Ptaum........still feeling perfumed/soyed, etc? This makes me sad.......SO want you to be better! Been too long.......should you just be living in a bubble by now? :(

Over a year ago, maybe 2, my microwave developed a mind of it's own......not counting down or heating up, but still running......not stopping when I want it to.........running when I DON'T want it to.......

Then it thought better of it and decided to behave.

Well now it's doin' it's own thang again! :angry:

:huh: Um..........Leesargh.......methinks yer microwave is in cahoots wif Geoss's toaster..........PUT HER DOWN! Get a NEW ONE! (microwave) I'm sure it's emitting evil.........diodes and stuff :wacko:

I just spoke with her minutes ago, and she is being released this morning. I have to go do some stuphph at the store, and then will be picking her up. She should be home by noon. Thanks, everyone, for your support.

Yay!! back home, good news Poeter! She'll be much more comfy there, wiv you and all kittehs :wub:

Bun Bun.........my dad died 22 years ago and just in the last couple of years, I am dreaming of him ALL the time. Last night, in fact, and earlier in the week........VERY bizarre scenarios.........not Africa, but - the bottom of the ocean, and houses that were being razed........all kinds of weird stuff

Hugs on three-year anniversary - wow, he must have been young :( Mine was only 56.......

After my mom died, I dreamt that her parents (deceased) came to me and told me Mom had been adopted.

I had my brother looking through all our records after that.....really freaked me out! :unsure:

I have a system now.

Set the time.

Shut the door.

When it starts running and I hadn't pushed START, yet (because it's not cooking OR counting down), hit the top right corner sharply. It will stop.

THEN push START.

Works every time ;)

hey....don't knock it! It's what Brian was instructed to use on his stump every day. :P

Also used as needed on little Lexi's bottom :)

'Morning, Pgang!

Youse all is makin' me larf... . . .. . ...still not getting enough sleep nor down time to contribute any pfunniness, but I'm still finding everyone hilarious. :lol: Methinks the Psilly thread should be broadcast through the intercoms of hospital recovery and observation areas -- professionals reading our lines, going through the posts in real time, with recap and summaries before shift-change. People would recover more quickly.....and even if they didn't, they would be larfin', and larfter ALWAYS helps.. . .. ..... .

Mom's night nurse asked me, politely, if those lines on her brow line had been made by a pen of some sort. I stared at her, then said, "A PEN of some sort?? Uh... ..... ...no. Not just ANY pen of 'SOME SORT'. Do you not recognize the effect of a classic Sharpie when you see one?"

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
