Most definitely.

No wind for us, it's cold (not east coast cold, but Seattle cold) and sunny (ok, well, it's dark now, but 'twas sunny a few hours ago).

So I accidentally bought some chocolate, and I've discovered that after eating the 70% kind, the 'normal' dark chocolate (45%) tastes like milk chocolate.

Accidentally bought chocolate? You were reaching for the brocolii and grabbed the wrong thing?

Man, I HATE when that happens. . . .. ... . ..Who hasn't, in their stressed, rushed, lives, confused that big head o' broccoli in the grocery bin for that box of chocolate right beside it? They need to separate these items within the store -- too easily confused, and then BAM! I've got a big container o' chocolate in my house.. .. . . ....

<_<

:rolleyes:

All present and accounted for. . .. . . ...we're only expecting 6-7 inches of psnaough. But it's begun, and it's really blowing. Very high winds coming.. .. ..dangerous driving, and of course I have to get my mom to TWO doc appointments today.. . . . .... ..

Hunker down, everybody!

School is out again today. Everything is covered in a thick layer of ice.

DD, in an attempt to de-ice her car, has broken her back windshield (she was using a hammer :o ). Many tears followed :( .

Tis 2F (-16C) here. Down to -12 tonite ( not including wind chill). What is the point of the psnaugh if it's too cold to play in it?

I think you mean he did NOT see his shadow. And yes, I am sooo ready for an early spring.

25 degrees here....not too terrible, but I will be driving my daughters newly air-conditioned car to the repair shop....brrrrr :ph34r:

She had already broken her ice scraper yesterday, trying to chip away the ice from her car. She saw a neighbor doing it (although I think his was a mallet), so......

Good news

The windshield will cost $400 to replace, BUT........the company she works for will reimburse her.

Hubby just tried to do some shoveling . . . he DID get a layer off so that we can get the back door open to let JoDog out to take cake of bidness. I asked if he was going to try the driveway next <snort>. . . it ain't happenin'.

I don't think we got as much as they predicted, but what we got is bad enough . . . sleet fused together with ice . . . very slick and concretish at our house. Have absolutely no idea what the roads are doing. Nobody's moving thru the neighborhood at all. Neighbor kids were ice skating in the cul-de-sac yesterday. We've got some tree limbs down but they're not too big. Of course the tree I would most like to lose (and replace with something much better) is standing strong.

Yeah, and on dat tree, too. .. .... . . . ..<_<

It is rather sublime, here, outside. Blowing psnaough... . . .like a wee blizzard. Ice is forming, but haven't seen any tree limbs down as yet. Spotty power outages. We are so accustomed to this, it is a regular day. Kids at school, buses moving, all kinds of cars on the roads, pedestrains plowing through the sidewalks and streets. . . . . ...... .

We's a crazy lot... . . .. ... :rolleyes:

Yeah, we would have had school cancelled, grocery stores out of food cuz peep's are freaking out and buying everything on the shelves, regular TV programs interrupted bu "Special Breaking News" reporting each new cm of psnoh and every accident on the road :rolleyes:

I just want a psnoh day-WITH power outage- to have an excuse to stay in bed and read all day! :)

Things are going a wee bit haywire for Clark and me. Saw FP on Wednesday and now I have to see five specialists and have 5 tests done. Then yesterday my DH called at 7:30 AM to let me know his department is being transferred to Cambridge Mass. WTF? we just got here 6 months ago. Spent the day wondering all the 3 W's . Had to wait until 5:30 PM to find out any info. We talked it over last night and I think it's going to take 18 to 24 months before the actual move. We're going to stay in RI and he'll probably take an apartment with some of the other displaced men and come home Friday through Sunday. We lived like that for 3 months last year but it was at the height of my illness. It still sucked. This would be for about 5 years and then he could retire at 55. I'm glad that we won't be selling the house (as if we could in this market) and we're pretty sure he won't be one of the people laid off. But I see now why he has said the Pfizer has a horrible reputation.

Thanks for letting me vent!

Cool tunnel!!! . . . Karen, is it big enough to make a tunnel for the car to get out of the drive thru?

Hubby keeps going out and hacking at the drive and them coming back in to say he can't make a dent then going back out to hack at the drive . . . etc . . . he's talking about using the ax . . . hope I can get him to the ER when he has a heart attack or accidently chops his foot off.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By ElenaM · Posted

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.
