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

Don't forget to use "frequently" frequently!

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?? <_<

But you gain a confident, beautiful, intelligent adult who (eventually) respects you and thinks you are wonderful.

      Ibuprofen

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress! Interesting Reading... The importance of thiamine (vitamin B1) in humans https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10568373/#:~:text=Thiamine absorption in the jejunum,system [51–53].

      Has prednisone or some other systemic steroid been tried that might quiet her immune system down for a while? I have two acquaintances with Lyme's disease. It is a wicked condition that has long fingers.

      We have.  She is so limited as to what she can eat.  She has a nutritionist, but they are even at a loss.  Right now, her pain is so significant that she can only eat 5-10 bites a meal.   We just got some labs back today and she is hypoglycemia, anemic and her immune system is shot.  She also is positive for 3 tickborne illnesses.  Thanks for your help!

      A much better suggestion than that of the new doctor!
