Will she be wearing that styling dress?

Sorry to disappoint you but I left that dress to it's own devices :D

Get a thumb report. B)

Does she have her dress that matches the drapes all pressed and ready to doff?

My thumb or Poeter's thumb

the drapes in the kitchen are an orange coloUr. I don't think I have anything in my wardrobe that matches them. I will try and wear something that will clash nicely with them though.

How true Patti. I'm mostly wear blues and purples although not always together. Our wallpaper in the kitchen is old as well. It's a floral yellow print. What can i say but Poeter and I aren't really into decorating :D

You try wearing a dress when unloading the truck! :rolleyes:

So, Jacquie has a "hot" date with Tony the appliance technician in the morning. I'll be minding the store. ;)

It's a good choice. A hot date with a baker wouldn't get YOU anything.

And Tony has been and gone.

I miss read the 'thumb' comment yesterday :D I take a guess and say it's about 2 1/2 inches.

And we're waiting to see if we can get a thermostat for the stove. Apparently they haven't made Harvest Gold in a 'few' years :rolleyes:

The plot on how old the stove is got a little more interesting. The vent area of the stove is 'Avocado Green'. What were the original owners of the house thinking :rolleyes:

and did you know you can now get some appliances in 'Red' :eek:

Maybe they liked both and couldn't make up their minds? :P

The former owner told us about him--evidently he was so comfortable with them, he would eat out of their hands. With me, he's more comfortable with the glass door in between us while he eats.

We have inherited neighbors' scaredy cat - they couldn't find her when they moved to Oz after the 2nd quake. She has even been so bold as to (once) let us touch her head, but usually lurks in the bushes waiting for food at same time each night (just before darkness).

Jeeze, Simon takes a run at me each morning and bounces off my ankle to tell me I'd better feed him 'NOW'!!!!!! He does have quite the shag-a-dellic hair-do and I wonder how well he can see with all that hair in his eyes. Maybe I should put it in a ponytail and see if that helps :lol:

* snort * ColoUr references of 1970's appliances......I very vaguely recall our house having a great deal of orange throughout my early childhood. I particularly remember the big avacado phone sitting on the li'l special phone table in the hallway.. .. . ..... :lol:

How on earth did she ever manage to organize a perfectly matching dress to the wallpaper??

:lol::lol::lol:

The first house Jesse and I bought when we were 23 had the avocado sink, toilet and bath with the pink tiles all around. We decorated around it to make it work, ended up kinda cute. I thought it might be a sore spot when we were trying to sell, but the house sold in 5 days, so I guess it wasn't that bad! :P

Might not be wallpaper . . . might be a curtain . . . which makes me think of Carol Burnett wearing the drapes in the Gone with the Wind parady.

Love, Love, Love this skit!!!! One of the funniest ever!!

Sadness today...not to dwell as this is The Funny pages but my old cat Lucy died today.

She was 15 yrs & frail so not completely unexpected. She was a miserable old cat but I shall miss her!! wub.gif

Jestgar Rising Star

It's my goal to be a miserable old cat when I go, so I totally empathise with her. :( bye Luce.

kareng Grand Master

So sad for Lucy!

I have many days I feel like a miserable old cat, myself!

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
