SILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!

:wacko:

had one hour of shut-eye and am still feeling the wackl, and completely delirious

:lol:

I see the mirth has been carried on valiantly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Again, SO much like the action goin' on at the retirement home.... .. I actually think there is a Lucy Baines living there, who drools and has climbed on top of departing cars.. . . . .....

:lol: the poor old gal.....I think our Lucy cat lived until she was 17 or so - fully bonkers and skinny and quite tattered in the end - a veritable Grisabella from T.S. Eliot :wub:

Dear gawd.....you are all a rather simian bunch, aren't ya??

Yes, and hirsute, too :lol:

would like to have my whole body lasered <_<

WHAAAAT????

and

WHY?????

...and why Brandy?

Brandy in me hot milk, you Silly Bundt!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: helps me to sleep.

One can ne'er have too many words for the male anatomy.

It's funny to me to read all of those words in that dictionary, it feels like I'm in the 'way-back' machine. Suddenly I'm 5 years old, listening to my granny tell me to 'make pischy' in the bathroom at Kresge.

Good times...good times

My mum's phamilee were some pretty intense people. Long suffering, to be sure. So much guilt, so little time.

Hmmm...that's what my husband says, every time I take off me clothes

Sadly, I was forced to surrender my IBTC member card at age 17 1/2, whenst the TT fairy paid me a surprise visit and me blossoms near exploded out me wardrobe. She brought along her friend, the chin hair fairy

As if I could Suze, dear, your mirth tis quite ribald wifout me :wub:

In my world, the shaving ritual is known as "Trimming the Bush"

I'm all like :lol: :lol: x 100 from Mimmsy's post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She got EXPLODING BLOSSOMS?????????????????? :angry: I'm still waitin.

I had a vestigal visit from her, as well....... . . ...she does toes, too, part-time. . . . ...

*snooooooort* Yup, got the hair on the big toe, also. Um, I SHAVE MY ARMS. That's right. I have as much arm hair as a man........started bleaching it in around 6th grade (Jolen Cream Bleach, eh girls?) and then..........over a decade ago, just started shaving them daily.

:o

isn't that CRAZY??????????

bloody heinous is what it is. <_<

Then we can all larf at his widdle-pee-nee (johnson, jack hammer, shwans, meat, loaf, trouser trout, pearl diver, little man, jock, manhood)

Hope Suze is gettin' some shut eye

"Aw man, why'd you let her nap so late? Now she'll never get to sleep tonight! I guess I'll just have to put some brandy in 'er milk again."

love the weenis names, esp. TROUSER TROUT and another fave, ONE-EYED SNAKE :lol:

Mimms, yer daughter has a cold? awwwwwwww.........well, you get to stay home this weekend then! Hope she feels better.

got one hour of shut-eye, it did help a bit. Now must head out on errands. Foraging for brandy food and supplies, and a lock for my back gate. Did I tell you guys the incident last weekend with teh gardener??????????? :unsure: I am really in a very awkward situation here, pholks, adn do nae know what to do, so temporary solution is to lock him out of my back yard. :huh:

Crikey, is THAT the man for me? Is that who God has for me? My five-foot-two, non-English speaking gardener?????????????????? I was too nice to him, and he has fallen in love. Remember, the flowers in the soda can, and the strawberries? His love offerings? and telling me that he wants to be my novio?

Last week he started crying when I TRIED to tell him (in my very primitive Spanish) that he can't come into my back yard unless I invite him.

THAT is what I get. <_<

:blink:

Will any NORMAL man ever like me? Ever?

HARRUMPHHHFFFFFFFFFFF

Poor Weez, no walk from her slovenly white trash mommy today......we are just going to lay around until mommy's head stops spinning from fatigue. *snort*

WHERE IS GIA-KNIT??????????????????????? Is she sorting her tatt??????

Oh, wish we could help.........can you imagine, all the sillies commandeering her yard sale????? Absinthian toasts and full ribaldry :snort:

and maybe we can find that court jester with the soiled velvet robe and battered sepulchre to join us.............where is he????????

:lol: :lol:

Padt - what IS goign on down there in Texas???????????????????

Amanda - some kind of evil rash????? Stay inside, by all means.

Oh Sills - - going to be mid-70's here for a few days - - the EVIL SUMMER has been staved off for a while more................ :happydance:

Gad...just got back from Jack's science fair at his school.

"Please, stay out of my garden. No more flowers in cans. Your thumbs are too small."

Sills,

Have I mentioned to ya'll about the dairy-o-rama I have going on over here? B):lol:

It all started wif the greek yogurt (yum) and then the splash of milk in me tea. Well, yesterday I had.......get ready fer it......vanilla ice cream!!!!! :o:D :D Regular ole' store bought ice cream (gluten status checked ;) )

Today, I graduated to half and half in me tea--and I've had no reactions yet! :D

So here's the thing--I went dairy free even before I knew about Celiac. I thought it would help wif me stomach probs. Anyway, the doc that did me phirst endo like 4 years ago told me to "begin the gluten-free and lactose free diet", and the crackpot, er Kinesiologist I saw also said I was "allergic" <_< ....so I phigured I should just stay away from it.

But, I keep having this nagging feeling that when you think about it, I had no real basis to be dairy free, and believe it or not, I've never tested it out-- and since I really missed it after like 5 years, I decided to give it a try. Sorry fer the long, boring story...... :ph34r:

Next up, cheese!!! :D I pheel so empowered!!!

If I suddenly disappear, you can assume the other shoe has dropped and the whole thing backfired! :lol:

Dad is having major surgery through his back :blink: to get at a big cluster of kidney stones that they cannot access laproscopically.

OMG.......wheeled him into the pre-op waiting area this am, and many other seniors were sitting there, waiting also. One lady suddenly says, "Gasp!. . .......Les! I saw you and your wife on the news yesterday!" and the man beside her said, "YES! Happy anniversary to you both!" and the lady beside my mom piped in, "Sixty years!" And on it went, all these nurses suddenly crowding in, saying they had seen them both. . . .... :lol: Unbelievable that so many arbitrary people watch these local newscasts....... .

So, I left to go park, my dad telling everyone how the 60th wedding anniversary is traditionally Diamond. I hear him say, "So, I thought, jeez, I should get her the gift of a lifetime. So I bought her thirteen diamonds. I bought her a deck of cards".......

this is truly amazing.

hope the surgery is over and he is doing great

what a sense of humor his has.

hi buddies

been on the porch again today.

pretty day out just wish the 'quivers' would stop.

too much else to comment on.....sorry buds

Brandy in me hot milk, you Silly Bundt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought this said 'Brandy me in hot milk'.

Dunno how you'd do that, but it sounds like something I'd like to try.

Alrighty. If any of youse was thinking that putting up insulation would be a fun project, let me disabuse of that idea right now. I am exhausted....itchy...my fingertips hurt...and I still need to put up more.

On the upside, I've probably put enough staples into that room to block spy satellites, so my sunroom options have opened up. :ph34r::):P

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?
    • Fayeb23
      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!
    • Scott Adams
      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
    • RMJ
      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,
    • Bev in Milw
      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…
