I usually say "As long as they don't use it on someone else." or "Keep your haircare to yourself!"

Applies to a couple of boys as well as the girls.

Now I have a parent that has told a bunch of the other parents that there is no cost to them for the kids to travel with the team. If a random someone decides the kids don't have to buy thier own food, does that make it so?

I'm going to hide in a hole, now. :ph34r:

How sweet of that parent to offer to pay for everyone's meals! :P

So, we are having a parent meeting to explain things. I know with 50 kids, a few parents might not be able to make it. One emailed me back to say they had something that night, could we change the date?

Felt like saying, " sure. for you. We will ask 100 people to change the date.". Or " Sure, we'll change it to May 2". After the season is over.

So my hub said that he assumes people ,like the one that wants the meeting changed for them, don't think before they email. He said he would rather believe that then that they thought it out and decided everyone should accomadate them.

So that makes these people " thoughtless"? Dumb? They get a GFT on the head to knock some sense into them!

Thoughtless.

Or they've never had to organize a group of people and have no idea what's involved.

Can you schedule the meetings a month out and tell everyone now so they can set their own schedules?

It won't matter. I know some people have bought tickets months ago to something, or 1 school has a band concert, etc. Its OK. I just couldn't believe they would think we would change the date for one family.

Hello my dear psillies. - I've missed you all so much

I'm back from my nightmarish couple of weeks. It turned out my main problem was bad psychotropic drug interactions that I've been taking for years and they finally built up too high for my body weight. Now here's the scary and psilly part of it. I was trying to get in to see my psychiatrist earlier than my next appointment but he's having surgery and has no covering doctor and will only see suicidal patients. I don't know how to safely get off the worst of the drugs (depakote). Luckily Superman worked in the pharmaceutical field for 27 years and looked it up and the side affects. I'm slowly weaning myself off of the depakote and will be switching doctors. Right now I'm falling again (the depakote). I feel I have so much to be grateful for. My dear friends and the support they give me and my sweet Superman. After all the worry and and stress I put him under he bought me a Kindle Fire so I can read again. My eyesight is still hazy and now I can make the font size as large as I need to. I feel I'm on the road to recovery but still need to take it slow.

I'm still tiring easily so will end with an update on Tony. He has two internships this summer. One with one of his psychology professors and the other ...drumroll..... with the Public Defender's Office. I am SO proud of him!!! All right, time to eat lunch. My weight is still really low.

Lots of love wub.gifwub.gifwub.gifwub.gifwub.gif

Perhaps we should be careful when we complain about restaurant food and send it back to the kitchen???

A good chef must be passionate about his food!

Maybe Chuck Norris can set him straight! Now that would be a good food fight!

And this was AFTER it kept posting fromi though my hitting Enter when I wanted newline.

No, you're right, Ptaoughmm....there is NO magic triangle o'er in that other place......but hey, you can LIKE something!

And poke people.......

Actually, I have never poked anyone. Ever. The odd time I wish we could slap someone. <_<

And I KNOW, I simply HATE that hit-enter-and-your-post-is-public..... . .. ..I often do this. If you want to simply skip to a new line, hit "enter" and "shift" at the same time......:)

Read this as: "When you want to skip to a new line, you hit "enter" and say "sh!t" at the same time."

.....it didn't work for me :unsure: :unsure:

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
