Art recap by Lisa

When did we lose our insanity? We's still phunny- just not drunk-on-yeti-wine crazy

Yes. Younger then the first 3 kids, slightly older than the one she married, and older then the last one. Then there were 2 kids they adopted but gave away. Very "Jerry Springer". (a show where odd people come on and confess to indiscretions and fight each other)

Uhm...wow!

Awesome!!! I'm already learning how to do certain 'special' things so I can be a 'backup' person for when one guy's wife has a baby. Makes me feel good!

Yippee! Go BUNNEIGH!

The classic symptoms of low blood sugar happened to you, if I remember correctly: Shaking, weakness, sweat, dizziness.. .... . . ...and it typically happens when one has gone too long without food. Stomach issues aren't normally present, however, but nausea can be, as can tingling around the lips, general confusion and a hammering heartrate.

Yep- that's what happens to me. But you said your stomach feels like it's digesting itself which makes me wonder if you go too long without eating, your stomach acid irritates your tummy. Just another thought.

Is this like the women who live together all have their periods at the same time thing? People who post together all end up with hypoglycemia?

:lol: Why can't we get sumphin' fun together!

JOODEEE- COME BAAAACCCKKK!!!!!!!!!!!

OK Bev. We seem to be having Midori martinis this weekend. Hope this suits you 'cuz I am well sooted already.

Poifect! Am I hungover today? :P

It's been a long road. She's been thru the ringer, and she just has to keep doing it over and over because of her liver function. She's been sick off and on her whole life and it took until about 2 years ago when she found this amazing doctor who has done wonders for her, thank God!

That's crazy Rachelle- I have a friend who passed it on to both her daughters (she and her husband both had it and didn't know) and they are really sick- PICC lines, horrible depression. It's nasty disease.

small humans do this too?

And apparently brides on their wedding day have threatened weathermen for predicting rain on their wedding day. Some chickens (and bridezillas) are just unreasonable!

Not the ones that believe in a God. You can blame the weather on God. I think the dog may blame me for the thunder.

Yep- my nieces told me they really wished God would stop bowling! As their 95 pound Doberman shakes like a leaf under the coffee table.

So by having non-smooth-skinned children I still get "it's all your fault" without getting the macaroni-glued-onto-paper pictures that declare undying love?

Yep! At least they don't ask you for a walk everyday regardless of the weather :lol: :lol:

My kids blame everything BUT the weather on me.. . . ......their big feet, strange noses, loud, startling voices.... . . . ..... . .

And actually, they're correct - - I AM to blame for all that!! :lol:

I should hand pages 1700-1800 to MY MIL, who is currently in town but not with us until Wednesday.

I wonder what her take would be on those hundred pages.... . . . ..or on ANY chunk of the psilly thread. Perhaps I will dig up the crutch-tip-in-the-bottom-of-my-ho-tub incident. Or our musings on penis-to-thumb ratio...... .. ...gosh, so much I could expose her to. :lol:

I can actually see it, now, quite clearly.... . . she would read quietly through a few pages, tight-lipped.... ..... . then she would place the stack of pages on the coffee table in front of her, clear her throat, get up, reach for her bag and walk out the door.

:lol:

Life is interesting in this phamily. There seems to be a phamily pheud on the in-law side.

The cats did not give me anything special today. Bagheera remains inquisitive, affectionate, and phearless! He found a toy this afternoon which has a mouse on a spinner inside a partial enclosure. He keeps battting at it over and over to see if he can get it out. He cant, BTW, that is the point of the Motor Mouse. It can be made to turn on battery power, but he is doing phine without any help.

Well, nothing too phunny at dinner tonight. The MIL did not come. Said she had something else. This is what usually happens or the FIL never shows or calls a few minutes before to say he can't come. The only funny thing was niece, 19, explaining college drinking games. My dad trying not to laugh, my mom, who didn't wear her hearing aid, looking blank and eating more cookies. When she gets back to the nursing home and they take her blood sugar......

One game involves darts from a dart board game and full beer cans. 2 people sit in lawn chairs with a beer can at their feet. One throws a dart at the can at the others feet. Where the dart hits, the person whose can it is must drink it down to the dart. Of course, one does not want to waste the rest of the beer so they usually finish it. After several rounds, with fresh cans of beer, a person's aim gets worse but you don't feel the dart.

Will add another game tomorrow.

How about another college drinking game I heard about last night? It involves sticking a piece of pole in the ground or using a fence pole. You put a glass beer bottle on the pole. One team throws a frisbee at the bottle and tries to knock it off. The other team "defends". They can catch the bottle before it lands or catch the frisbee at anytime in the process to earn points and keep the other team from earning points. I know you must drink before starting so that you have empty bottles to use. I think after so many points, you must also drink. This could get messy if the bottles are not caught.

Husband then showed her the proper technique for rolling a quarter so that it would stay on its side an roll across the whole table. Thus guaranteeing you will win the "Quarters" game. I'm not sure of all the rules but here's the technique demonstrated by my Hub: Take the quarter and roll it down your nose. It hit the table and does roll on its side. Now everyone, you know you want to try this! :P

Mygawd... ..this must involve some obscure law of physics...

All right, just tried this - - rolled a quarter off me nose - - and it immediately hit the table, rolled on its side for about an inch, and then flipped to a stop. I obviously do not have the prototype nose for this task.. . .. ..perhaps one needs a ski-jump model, where the quarter arcs somewhat upward before descending. Or a large Roman shape, and the quarter would simply drop off very quickly, exerting more force.. . . . ...

Perhaps it works exclusively with American quarters, not Canuck quarters.

What if you have allergies, and your nose is full of mucous?

How about acne - - do zits sitting on the path of the quarter affect results?

So many possible variables. Hmm.. . ..could be quite the scientific study.. . . . ......Jyessss?

Reminds me of the glittery va-jay-jay stories :lol:

OMG . ..... . .. ..I wish I had the nerve to intentionally prepare this way for my next PAP smear. . .. .. . ..:lol:

PHlat tYre this morning <_< ...never welcome,then on to the hospital for Terry's cardiology appt.

I think I told you guys he was having tests on his heart - well today was the results of his cardiac MRI.

The doc said it showed that Terry HAS HAD several heart attacks :o:unsure::o

What the french toast?!?!?!

I have actually took him to the ER many times over the years with chest pain - but it was dismissed as indigestion/arthritis of the ribs etc :(

The doc said it was quite unusual as he has NO furring of the arteries <_<

He thinks it's either the drugs for his arthritis have caused it, OR, a virus, OR caused by electrolyte/salt imbalances when he was very ill/thin pre dx of celiac disease.

Whatever the cause he has to start an drug to help his heart pump better <_<

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
