A piece of the fence must have been knocked down during the earthquake last week. I have gotten M to fix it so you Psillies cannot escape to other threads! Just need to get you all back in the yard. Here Psillies! Vodka & wine! Martinis! That's a good Psilly. ;)

Thanks for fixing the fence Carengee! Irene knocked part of it down and then tired to blow everyone away! She only got off with a few shingles and pieces of siding though. We were stuck in our house due to flooded streets until the water receded enough yesterday and we could venture out. Lost power off and on throughout the storm. No loss of life for us or major damage thankfully! I could have used that vodka though. It was a pretty boring hurricane once the rain and wind left. Next time I will get a canoe so we can try to go to the store. :D Best video that pretty much sums up the hurricane here was this one from my local news: Open Original Shared Link

Trying to post some lovely cocktails but I think the iPad has drunk them. Weird things are happening, now. The forum is shrinking and stretching . May have to wait for it to sleep it off.

This strange, seismic activity that was rocking the forum last night was due to Irene, I'm sure.... . . . ..Hurricane Irene, not Manna-Irene...although perhaps it WAS you, Manna -- your ILs aren't in town, are they, causing you to throw furniture, toss unwanted junk out the front door?. . . . ..

Frequently.

Did somebody offer a Martini?

Yep, always Frequently. Oracle POeter and I are on the same page. B)

POeter, I am offering you a choice of morning martini:

Thanks for the giant breakfast martoonies :)

I think Scott is punishing our recent indiscretions by making Psillyville the only over-sized thread.

Or.....

perhaps he figured the old space was not big enough to contain us??? :blink::ph34r:

Well, it wasn't, since there were several Psillie Psightings in the Poll Post.

Having a great time at a two day class called "building a positive workspace". We answer questions in a workbook, then discuss them at our tables. I get to discuss answers like:

"Does everyone in your work environment understand their job description?"

with:

"there are no job descriptions"

and:

"How are new people introduced to the working environment?"

with:

"we've had people working for a couple months before anyone (but the boss) knew they were part of the lab"

Highly, highly amusing

and a little sad

Feeling a bit like GFM's (Nonhurricane Irene's) in laws. We are going to visit J at college over the weekend. Bringing all the things he couldn't bring the first week of school.

Driving a long distance with a bunch of stuff we are leaving in a small space!

Well hopefully, unlike my inlaws you are actually bringing him stuff he needs/wants/will use! I'm sure he will find places for everything and if not, well that's normal dorm life! :lol: Are you taking him any peanut butter cookies so he can show the girls what they are supposed to taste like? :D

DD is moving into her residence on Sunday. Not a long drive for us -- perhaps 15 km -- but we'll have two stuffed cars. What in hell? Why is she taking two enormous suitcases full of clothing? She gets on a bus, comes home and grabs her winter sweaters in a couple of months....

Anyways, her room is on the fifteenth floor of one of the main res buildings -- the top floor, and there is no air conditioning. We are all hoping for a cool September. Also, the elevators, for whatever the reason, only stop at even floors. We have a sizeable bar fridge, dresser, huge suitcases and bags to haul up two flights of stairs from the fourteenth floor. :huh:

Dear gawd... . . ... .. .and how much is all this costing us?? <_<

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Sarah Grace,  Thank you for the update!  It's so good to hear from you!  I'm glad Thiamine, B Complex and magnesium have helped you.  Yes, it's important to take all three together.    I had to quit eating cheese and nuts a long time ago because they triggered migraines in me, too.  They are high in tyrosine, an amino acid, found also in fermented foods like sauerkraut and red wine.   I found taking Tryptophan very helpful with migraines.  Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin and people with migraines are often low in serotonin.  (Don't take tryptophan if you're taking an SSRI.)     This recent study shows tryptophan really helps. The association between dietary tryptophan intake and migraine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31254181/   For immediate respite from a migraine, try smiling REALLY BIG, mouth closed, tongue pressed against roof of mouth, and crinkle up your eyes like you just heard or saw the funniest thing...  This causes an endorphin release in the brain.  Usually it's the funny event, then the endorphin release and then the smile.  Smiling first makes the endorphin center think it missed something and it catches up quickly by releasing endorphins after the big crinkle eyed smile.  Must make crinkly eyes with smile or it won't work.  If you do this too frequently within a short time frame (several hours), you can deplete your endorphins, but you'll make more in a couple of hours, so no worries. Get your thyroid checked, too.  Migraines are also seen in low thyroid function (Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism).  Celiac and thyroid problems go hand in hand.   Vitamin D helps, too.  Low Vitamin D is found in migraine.   I'm so glad you're doing better.

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.
