OK. So I'm at the eye doctor, reading the giant print Reader's Digest while waiting for my eyes to dilate. I'm at some glurpy article titled something like 10 things to be glad about, you know, like world peace and stuff. I made it to No. 5 - Horns of plenty. :lol: :lol: I couldn't tell you what they were trying to discuss, 'cause by then I was only able to do headlines, but I couldn't imagine needing anything to be glad about, beyond a good, solid Horn o'

Plenty...

If your into Karl Jung and his theories....lets see if I can remember enough to make sense....

That all people share a Universal Consciousness that is our most basic link to one another. This is why we often have dreams that don't fit into our own lives (of situations, times, places we have not yet seen). He uses this to explain "genetic" memory, as well as why in times of great invention there are generally multiples of people who "come up with" and try to develop the same ideas at about the same time.

So.....either the idea generated here and floated out into the universe....or someone "caught" the idea from the Universal Consciousness slip stream and it made its way here! :P Of course, how obviously simple :lol::lol::lol:

EM - A _ Lyre....sorry about the laptop! Man! Are you able to go into safety mode? Does it let you System Restore to an earlier set-up?

If noTHing else...take it to Staples. They can check it out for you....that is, if you don't already have someone that you trust to do this. My telehubby had to take his there (we already got "burned by some "professional" outfit down here). We are fortunate to have found a fellow employed by Staples that really knows his stuff! He (hubby) had picked up a nasty virus in spite of the wall.

It may be nothing more than using your disc....Staples may even be able to tell you how to do that if you're not sure. Good luck!

Mornin', gang!

Thanks SO much fer your jumpin'-onboard computer troubleshooting, Jess and POeter!

I have been tearing apart my office searching for a Windows XP C/D......nowhere. :angry: There are a couple of sites I've glanced at telling me that I can burn such a thing from webistes that are given (finding that hard to believe when it must be purchased for $60 anywhere else), and haven't had time to take it any further....will check that out more closely, I suppose.

I think I'll be taking it to my friendly computer geek man who will fix it in a half-hour, instead of me taking a whole day . . .at the same time I will have him install Microsoft Word, as so often I've wanted to write something in a file while out on the deck.

He can also install AVG for me - - I cannot seem to get it on there. . . .

Just HATE parting with the $$$ right now! :angry::angry: Poop-a-doop.

but I couldn't imagine needing anything to be glad about, beyond a good, solid Horn o' Plenty...

:lol::lol: Yep. Reader's Digest has always, historically, had it's thumb on the pulse of everything that truly matters in the world.

Gah! Remember when I stumbled upon the article "I Am Fifi's Anal Glands"?? Talk about cutting-edge and pertinent! :lol:

................How is it that Psilly business is spreading out into the 'real' world?........Is it being sucked out thru a black hole in the space/time continuum? :o

Mornin' Psillies . . . won't be on much today . . . IT'S PARTY DAY . . . got 3 girls showin' up at 3pm . . . it's all giggling and shrieking and crafting and eating after that. I shall take a preemptive dose of Advil. Don't know why, but I'm cleaning . . . must get back to it.

Hey! When's that spring break? And is still happening in the northwest?

Hey! When's that spring break? And is still happening in the northwest?

:( Ahhhhh . . . No . . . change of plans. I'm not even sure what we'll end up doing but we are staying flexible so that I can go home that week. Hubby might take (drive) the kids to Virginia to spend some time at his brother's "country house" and spend a little time in D.C. . . or . . . we might all go to Pere Marquette State Park in Illinois so that I can see my parents and the kids can do some hiking and head into St. Louis to see the arch. My brother from Washington is flying in for a long weekend in two weeks to see mom & dad and I will head home then, too, so we'll have a small family get together.

My SIL tells me that spring break isn't the best time to come see them. They live about 3 hours Southwest of Seattle and the road conditions aren't predictable (pesky Mt Rainier). . . she recommends coming in June. She was also talking about just meeting us in Seattle . . . do you think she doesn't really want us at her house??

here's a silly from me mum:

WHY

ITALIANS CAN'T BE PARAMEDICS

Vinny and Sal are out in the woods hunting when suddenly Sal grabs his chest and falls

to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing; his eyes are rolled

back in his head.

Vinny whips out his cell phone and calls 911. He

gasps to the operator, "I think Sal is dead! What should I do?"

The operator, in a calm soothing voice says, "Just take it easy and follow my

instructions. First, let's make sure he's dead."

There is silence. . .

and then a shot is heard.

Vinny's voice comes back on the

line.

"Okay, now what?"

:lol:

Okay so I found out that P Kitteh is NOT cool with all dogs....... :huh:

We are babysitting Cousin Mojo, brought her home yesterday aft and - Kitteh was in permanent Halloween Cat mode for about 15 minutes :lol: (just love that, BTW) and......growled and hissed for quite a while......I worried that this could really be a looooooooong weekend. :blink:

And thank God things have calmed down.....I was goign to have to get some REAL absinthe, and not the virtual kind some a youse have been sending me. :lol:

Question for y'all.

I have instant pudding mix - assorted flavors - and I'd like to make some. My choices for liquid are: mojito mix, margarita mix, red wine, and scotch.

What would work best?

I also have a bit of french vanilla coffee creamer stuff, if that'll help.

Uhhhh.... Don't you normally put ... milk.... in pudding?

I don't think alcohol would allow it to set. But a red wine-fruit flavor might be ok.

:lol: :lol: :lol: true dat

so - I can go to FLAIR buttons and.......put in, say, KITTEH? er sumfin? or - poop? vomit? anal glands? :lol:

speaking of poop - - I have GOT to get a link to this page of a magazine I perused whilst held hostage at hair salon the other day........some PHAMOUS designer re-did her guest house and........was the MOST SCARY and garish thing I've ever seen - - supposed to be so posh and was just a 70's amalgamation of purple and pink horror, the kind of rooms you'd see and just go - WHAT IN HELL? NEEDS TO BE REDONE IMMEDIATELY :blink:

so - in this one massively-clashing room - - - sooooooooo fascinating and riveting I stared at the page transfixed for - a full three minutes? studying details of the cacaphonous design schemata.....dear gawd........wanted to run screaming around the salon and show it to everyone......$300-a-yard fabrics that looked like.......abstract vomit scheme or summat? (let me tell you what *I* could do with $300 fabrics <_< )

so - on the wall of her PREPOSTEROUS living room was this piece of "art" - - referenced as a "whimsical swirl piece" or something and.......seriously, it was just a GIANT PIECE OF WHITE POOP painted on dark background :lol: :lol: :lol: Honest to God - a piece of soft, squishy dog poo, much like the kind occasionally found in my back yard, that maintains its swirl shape, points on top and bottom and a solid curl in the middle......... :lol: A large piece that I think would make EVERYONE stop and think - phecal matter......right up there on the wall......

:lol: Makes me larph, even now - I must find this -

Emperor's New Clothes............ I want to write and tell her this :lol: :lol:

and in other news - -

sillies -- I am going to stay in bed the entire weekend :( Everything is suck-y :huh:

wish I had a laptop, I could just chat all day from me bed - 'bout nuttin' of course :lol:

Love Em's perfect baby photo from Walmart :lol: they photoshopped the eyes, you know.

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.

      Yes, lots of delicious things have barley malt. It also doesn't include rye. And there are a number of grains commonly cross contaminated such as oats.   Additionally, wheat allergies are different from gluten allergies as wheat allergies are a reaction to a wheat protein. So something *could* contain wheat gluten without causing a wheat allergic response (though realistically,  I don't know how likely that is to occur)
