He is in the chorus, so nothing up-front, but one of the vital support cast in the background who makes it all look and sound amazing.

As my favorite director always says "there are no small parts, only small actors"

Well. . . ....I am still on a high. We went to the opening night of The Drowsy Chaperone at Jack's school, and it was incredible. I sound very like a biased mom, but everyone in the audience was truly blown away. I only wish Soooozle could have been there.... . ....

:lol:

Jack was fantastic. He is in the chorus, so nothing up-front, but one of the vital support cast in the background who makes it all look and sound amazing. He plays the part, in this scene, of one of the cameramen who dances around, lifts up the leading lady, and generally keeps smiling', movin' his feet and singin'.. .. . ..

Looks great!

Gads, have I got a lot to do. .. . . .. :wacko::wacko::wacko:

Having a 50th birthday party here this Saturday night for DH. He is MUCH, MUCH older than I. <_< There will be about twenty people, just family and a few close friends. (Um, guess who is flying in tomorrow, 5:42 pm?). . . . ...

.. . ..MIL . .. . .... :noadequateemoticonavailable:

Saturday night is coincidentally the final night of Jack's musical production, which actually works out well because almost everyone who is coming to the party will be heading to the musical afterwards. It'll be one big convoy.. . .. ..

SOosoosooOoO, I have to clean the entire house and the yard in case we are out on the deck, hit groceries and the liquor store... . . ....and the big thing: I decided four days ago to do a painting for DH. I am about half-finished.....it must be dry, matted and framed by Friday night.

:unsure:

So WHAT IN HELL am I doing on here??. . .

Well, forget all that unimportant stuph! Whutz the painting? Let some particulars already. A grand landscape of the deck and yard? A dashing portrait of the thespian in costume? Maybe of portrait of the prime minister or the Qween?

There would be no reaction. They are accustomed to being completely embarrassed by me. I would expect them to roll their eyes and walk away, saying, "please just don't hang that near MY room!"

:lol:

Nothing so patriotic nor personal.. . . .. ..I actually thought about taking a pic of it before it was framed and then posting it, but completely forgot, and I had a helluva time getting it into this honkin' frame.....so perhaps I'll take a shot of it as is. There will be major reflective shine-back.. . . . ...

It is a very tight, close view of a pair of legs and feet in old oxfords, white socks and brown trousers. Behind the two legs are two legs of a stool -- it is a seated man - - and between the two (human) legs sits a trumpet, resting on the floor.....suggestive of a New Orleans jazz player taking a break.

'Tis interesting.. .. . . ...strange.. . . ..odd, vaguely surprising coloUrs... .... . . . .I think DH will stare at it like this.. . . ... :huh:

:rolleyes:

Major reflections eh? I get that problem too. I often take my paintings outside on the deck and face them away from the sun to take pics. Wurks best when it's snot raining. :( My deck is only in the direct sun early in the day, and afternoon has more indirect light. So I can take pitchurs in the afternoon purty gud. Yeah, I can. I can so. So thar!

I managed to put a pic of my painting up on fb, but cannot get in on here because apparently it is too large. I haven't had that problem before. Does anyone know how to change it to a size that fits onto websites? I'm using piknik. . ......

Thanks! I look good in that painting!

I will seek out Gee Eff. He may be on FB hiding with Angela! ( remember her?)

Em! I absolutely LOVE your painting! And I can't see anything wrong with the shoe. But I know how you feel. I am highly critical of my calligraphy and always see something that I am not happy with. I have been told that it's not supposed to be perfect, but it's hard to let it be.

My dad is a painter and he once did an abstract containing various musical instruments. The flautist was holding the flute wrong :huh: Now THAT'S unforgiveable, seeing as how that is my instrument of choice. <_<

When you are ready for it to come down . . . I know people who can take care of that for you . . . Hell, you know people who can take care of that for you. PM Peoter and he can edit out the link (if it is past your editting window).

BTW . . . did not realize this till now (even though it's in yer name, duh!!!), but I was in your neck of the woods for spring break.

Hello my dear psilles,

Just wanted to let you know I'm keeping up with reading the posts. I have the flu again. At least i finally know why I keep getting sick. It's due to the CLL. My doctor was upset that I didn't go in to see her sooner but I don't want antibiotics or prednisone if my body can still fight off the infection. Evidently that's not the case and I have to go in at the first sign of illness. Now the medical bills are rolling in for all of the tests that weren't covered. Luckily Clark still has pretty good medical insurance. He's extremely stressed about getting a job and the layoff is coming soon. Worse case we'll put our house on the market and move to something smaller. There are a few possibilities and they might actually bring me closer to NJ. We don't need a big house. I just hope we can keep Tony at Brown.

Enough about me. Jess, how's school going? Is everyone else doing all right between flooding and natural disasterss? I miss being online daily and miss all of you even more. I just don't have much energy. But reading your banter keeps me laughing. BTW, who's currently running the monarchy and are you attending the royal wedding?

Had a really weird comment on my profile page and was getting ready to send a copy of it to PeOter but when I went to copy it today it was already removed (thank you to whomever didi it). It referred to wanting a "personal relationship" with me, left an email address and when I looked at the profile it was male (although the name was female). Thanks to the moderators for doing such a great job - have to admit it creeped me out.

OK, back to rest. Watched the mini series Mildred Pierce yesterday (all 5 hours) and it was awesome. Today I'm going to watch the original.

Lots of wub.gifwub.gifwub.gif and hugs,

Loey

I'm really impressed!!!!! I'm phailing in my art class. Everyone else is so professional and my work looks like a 5 year old could do it. Will continue because it's relaxing and hopefully I'll improve over time.

Hugs,

Hi, Loweee! :) Great to read you again.......was wondering how everything is with you....take care o' that phloo!

But reading your banter keeps me laughing. BTW, who's currently running the monarchy and are you attending the royal wedding?

I just cannot understand it.....here I am, Psillyville Kween, and there has been NO official invitation, as yet, to the royal wedding for me in the mail. Gads, they certainly take it right down to the wire! It is in two weeks, and I have to book a flight, get hotel reservations, arrange for someone to take over royal protocol in my absence.. ....rather inconsiderate of them, I must say.. .. . .....Can they not appreciate that I need time to make arrangemnts before I go overseas??

Had a really weird comment on my profile page and was getting ready to send a copy of it to PeOter but when I went to copy it today it was already removed (thank you to whomever didi it).

He/she targeted me, as well. Thanks, mods!

      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.  
    • asaT
      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 🤗
    • nanny marley
      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 
    • trents
      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
