It's the waning of Nik's reigning,

The phlipover is gaining.

With little time remaining,

Our Joooodie is abstaining.

And our Jule shant rule,

Trickery on Jude 'twould be cruel,

Uhhhhhhhhh .. . ....

Any royalty virgins IN the candidate pool?

Woohoo my Wildcats made the Sweet16 after such a hullabaloo last weekend about not even belonging in the tournament.

Gotta love the March Madness!! :)

WOOOOO HOOOO! Well, the Nepean Wildcats are halfway through their playoffs.....two more games, tomorrow night and this weekend. They are 3 and 0! :)

All right.....I have put up this avatar because I want all Psillies to weigh in on the coloUr of this errant crutch-tip. Is it not THEEEE most brick-coloUred thing, besides an actual brick, that you have ever seen?? Note that I have placed it next to our outdoor brick wall, for easy reference.

I have emailed this picture to Mr. Crutch-tip Connoisseur Shuttle Man, defying him to deny that this coloUr exists in the world of crutch-tippery.

Watch, he will shoot back a reply, accusing me of fancy photoshop colour-enhancing trickery. :angry:

.. ..world of crutch-tippery.

Hehehehe

Yup, bricky as a brick, just like I remember 'em.

Go BOTH Wildcats!!!!!

Oliver's better! POeter, it is strange how type one diabetes is SO common among cats. They are desert creatures, always borderline dehydrated with very concentrated urine.....does this have anything to do with it? Not sure. . . ....

And you have him on Lantus? Hell, how can you tell when he's having an insulin reaction? My cats would be in real trouble, as they are outdoors quite a bit and I rarely see them during the day......all I would do is worry.

We have him on Lantus twice daily, but at a conservative dose for now. The protocol calls for an initial dose of 0.25u/kg BID, which would call for 2.5u BID, but we have him on 2.0u BID. Janice (DVM) wants to keep him there until he is finished his course of ABX for the bladder infection. Lantus is absorbed at roughly twice the rate in cats that it is in humans, so it needs to be given twice daily (BID).

Our cats are indoor cats, although in the good weather they are allowed out on the back deck. It is designed to be escape-resistant, although there have been two or three incidents over time where one has gotten out briefly. Because hypoglycemia is harder to deal with in cats, the target BG levels are higher than they are in humans. Apparently, this does not cause long-term problems for the cats.

But here is the thing that is truly remarkable: in cats who are put directly on glargine (Lantus) upon diagnosis, there is a very high remission rate. In one study, 8 out of 8 cats recovered enough within 90 days to no longer require insulin at all! Over larger groups, the rate is more like 70%. This, of course, is when the insulin is combined with a permanent change to a low-carbohydrate diet.

Oh, man. . .. . . . if only this were the case with humans. . .... . . ...!

Wouldn't that be truly incredible, POeter? To have our diabetes go into remission??

Wow. . .. ......... . .. . . . . .... ..... . . .. .

Even for just a weekend. .. . . . ...a two-day holiday. . . . ...no blood-testing, no insulin reactions, no injections. . . . . . . ... :dreamyface:

Yes, Jooooodeee! If you are the first one to post on page 2,000......you are the new monarch. ;)

Now, you two have posted, but you did NOT weigh in with your coloUr vote: What say you, Joooodie and POeter, regarding my crutch-tip coloUr? Rather brick-like, wouldn't you say?

I'm larfing away here, thinking about you all emailing Mr. Crutch-tip Afficionado......I think you should do this. He was SOOOO self-righteously certain about the possible coloUrs of crutch-tips.

I want him to hear of his gross error from MANY MOUTHS. :lol:

:lol: sorry, that was lame

Em's crutch tip debate :lol: :lol: :lol:

well, it's a very ORANGE brick......more like terra cotta, I'd say. Mr. Crutch Tip Connoisseur Shuttle Man can easily SEE that it's an orange brick-like coloUr. However, I will offer up this - - since it's speculated that this colour has not been seen anywhere else in the world of crutch-tippery - - might it have been bleached/altered from exposure to ho'tub chemicals? I mean, do they TEST the durability of the crutch tip colours in chlorine before dispatch?

:lol:

got nowt else, very tired, I have not been falling asleep lately until about 3 am, DESPITE increasing my sleep meds :(

FREEZING COLD and LIGHT RAIN HERE!!!!!!!!!!! am thrilled out of my mind! :rolleyes:

Yes, Soooozle, I have thought much about this.....I am certain that the crutch-tip coloUr has been altered from the bromine in the ho'-tub. Faded it, I am sure. Allowing for this, I would have put the original coloUr at considerably darker, much more brownish, more....well....brick-coloUred. :lol:

So many questions spring from all this... .... .how long was it in the tub?? Did it move around, get bumped and kicked, perhaps causing accelerated coloUr loss?

Why did no one notice it? Feel this big rubber thing??

HOW IN HELL did it get IN THERE??

:huh:

:lol::lol:

Soooozie needs to sleep. .. . . . . . . -_--_--_-

Good Monday Morning, Psillies!

Little bits of good news continue to come. . . . .. :)

Freezing here, today..... :angry:

Sooooozle! Did you eat all that ice cream?

flourgirl Apprentice

Mornin Psillyville!

Pah-tay....thanks for the update emails, and your av is superb! It's wonderful that you can be there in person to give support...you are truly an angel!

Em.....definitely brick colored! Seems to me they come in brown, black, white...depending on the color of the crutch....did you get a response from your "oh so knowing" driver?

Still chasing deer....they run to the neighbors yard, turn to stare at us as if to say "what nerve!" and wait for us to go back inside :lol: They have NO fear at all! I remember using preditor urine back in NY, and not being able to find it again. Must look for some here. May have to resort to "see thru" fences, but I hate the idea, and I won't give up gardening! :P

Off to work. Can hardly wait to see what the day brings :P (I've come to the conclusion that there is an unwritten law of nature that each workplace has at least ONE difficult person to deal with). Hope you all are having a day that makes you smile!

Morning Sillies-

Patti love the new av! You are an angel indeed. Or like that song goes Undercover Angel :):):)

John is home sick again--hopefully he will get into the doc.

I made chocolate peanutbutter chip cookies last night--this morning they are very hard....I know I didn't screw them up- maybe they are just that type of cookie...

I am back at work in this dreadful place....dreaded coming here all weekend--especially after the whole gift card thing happened...Not one of us is jealous-our common thoughts are it is just not right to have done it the way it was done....just awkward all around.

Hmmm--yes cold indeed thought it was spring now---sure doesn't feel like it.

Morning all!!!

Patti, so glad that you were able to meet with Lisa and Brian. :wub:

Jess, really liked that motion detector bird sprayer thingy . . . might have to get one of those to use for . . . ummmmm . . . tricker-treaters or sumptin!!!

Spring has sprung!!! A frog has found us!!! and moved into our pond!!! Yeah!!!! We have always found frogs and brought them to our pond. Then they wait for the first couple of rainy days in a row and make a run for it. I've heard that if you bring the frogs to your pond, they'll leave but if a frog finds you, he'll stay . . . we'll see.

Hi Tom!!! How are you? How's your job? How have you been feeling? You've been quiet.

WOOHOO on your Wildcats!!!!

Yes, Soooozle, I have thought much about this.....I am certain that the crutch-tip coloUr has been altered from the bromine in the ho'-tub. Faded it, I am sure.

I concur about the faded color Em

It looks........clay colored, like sun baked clay.

Predator urine, I wonder what aisle in the grocery store one can find that....next to the ant killer sprays??

John is home sick again--hopefully he will get into the doc.

I made chocolate peanutbutter chip cookies last night--this morning they are very hard....I know I didn't screw them up- maybe they are just that type of cookie...

Morning Amanda.

Sorry about John, how have his stomach symptoms been lately?

That's a bummer your cookies reached projectile status :lol: ...but they sounded good :)

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.  
    • badastronaut
      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels? 
    • knitty kitty
      Have you tried lip balm made from tallow?  It's been used for thousands of years and works better than those with waxes. I prefer Vintage Traditions brand tallow balm products.  
    • knitty kitty
      Are you taking a B 6 supplement or a supplement containing B 6 like a B Complex?  Do you have pins and needles in your toes?   Don't worry about the thiamine being high.  The blood is a transport system that carries thiamine to the cells so they can store it.  It's fine.  
    • badastronaut
      Quick question, had some blood tests done again and once again my zinc was too low but now ofcourse my B1 was too high and so was my B6. The doc said to  immediately  stop all supplements that contain B6. Can using thiamine raise the levels of B6 too?
