*sigh*

You too eh??... why are all the old school chums fabulously wealthy and successful

Very slow brain today.....tired....... Harry (Lithuanian kitteh) woke me up at 2.00am leaping out of the cat carry box on top of me wardrobe

He crash landed on me feet, said ''oh Hai - can you let me out now???''

Cat's are normally kicked out at night....but this clever li'l fella snuck in

Anyhoo - could nae get back to sleep until 20 mins BEFORE the alarm went off

Carry ON !!!!!!!!!!

*snooooooort* Love Nikkel's whole post :lol: and evil Burundian Lithuanian kitteh :wub:

and I know, I HATE those rich friends <_<

<but if *I* were rich, I'd fly me friends from hither and yon to me very own cabin :( )

Having Dennis Quaid superhotty right..next...DOOR <swoon> is the deciding factor, Love. "the kicker" indeed

well......just might need to borrow a cup o' sugar, er summat :lol:

Bah, Soooozle.........just run off copies of the 2,200-page Psillyville Tome and hand them out upon your arrival - - "All right, this about covers what's been goin' on in MY head, and life, over the past few years"......

SORTED!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

I know! If things go badly you can 'confess' to earning your living as a high-paid call girl and then act like you recognise her husband's photograph

I went 'schmoozing' once or twice wif some hob-nobbers I knew and I still laugh about it. The only one who didn't accept me for the person I am was even less, shall we say 'fortunate' than I am. Once I was invited to attend a $200 a plate charity lunch. The hostess/speaker was a highly prominent newswoman who was more recently relieved of her position for her alleged involvement in a little "pay to play" scandal we call Synegro. My table mate--the well-to-do'er who brought me--didn't know what to do with the cold potato soup, so instead of using her spoon she picked up the glass and belted it back like a beer :rolleyes: She later told me that "rich people have better manners" and I almost choked.

BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG :lol: Raychull's tomatoe poo-em *snackle*

but - why would this snooty-poot drink soup from a.....glass? what in hell? why were they serving soup in glasses? (finding this amusing and - her comment, even moreso)

I'd go in a min. Think of all the free stuff that we "normal" peeps can't afford. Just get thee arse to a highclass thrift shop and spend a little more than you can afford on something really dingo-esque. I'm sure you look fine, and your personality is Suburb. I was never rich, but most of my friends were. It never stopped me. I used to be richer, but now I'm dirt poor ( the reccesion hit us years ealier than most), but I'd get my arse to a high..........

Yes, I'm aware of the Burning Man thing and would love to go, but that dirt poor thing always gets in the way. Besides, anything with the word MAN in it is out for me, with all the heartache I've had with that 4-timing jugular. But, I might take him back and share him. Isn't sharing a good thing and really the base for any good foot orgy?

The Seezio from Ohio

Seezio :lol: :lol: In Ohio!! Not Ireland.

A Dingo-esque outfit :lol: What would that be?

I already told them I didn't want to leave the manor, and we'd just hang around in our sweats and goof off all weekend.......they mentioned wearing their CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTINS while going out.....I told them the most I'd do is paint the bottoms of my flip-flops red :lol:

<for any who do not read ridiculous gossip magazines as I do, and who may not know, Louboutins are EXTREMELY expensive heels with red soles - like - starting at $500 and goign wayyyyyyyyyyyy on up - hostess owns a few - I don't give a crap>

when that word (Louboutin) was thrown down, I went out of my gourde - -

Burning Man - - scares me to death :unsure: Crazy pagan bacchanal......nutty! :wacko:

I am much more of the Woodstock era - a bit too young but, my brothers were 8 and 10 years older than I, I grew up loving all of that music.....

It'll be a blast Suze. They've acquired money, you've acquired experiences. Yours are better.

:wub: Um........they go to Paris and New YOrk all the time, for God's sake ....I live in Clovis

(I MUST copy and paste what I wrote on someone's fb today - really destroyed them all in its silliness)

That is the most eridulite pome I have ever read. It catches the essence of tomatoe!

eridulite :lol:

Nah......you're more than likely 10x hotter than them. I overheard a woman say this weekend, "Body by kids, maintained by Coors"

Um.........okay.......I need to post photos of the hostess (Peggy) somehow. She looks like......trying to figure out who. More gorgeous than many starlets. STUNNINGLY beautiful. <_< And then there's the darling (and completely wackl, I love her) Rae Dunn (you can google her), the sculptress........... *sigh* too much stress already, and it's not even September.

mimommy Contributor

Good morning :) Just wanted to let you know that my dog Max is doing better today. The swelling in his face has been slowly going down overnight and he is looking better this morning. Thanks to all for asking :) That'll teach him to mess wif bees, poor baby :(

Last night we had some nasty storms roll through before we made it home from work....they toppled my tomato plants...I was in tears. I worked so hard on those tomatoes and I was just getting red cherry tomatoes.... John salvaged most.

Another slow moving day thankfully I am only here till 4.

Good news on the pooch!! I didn't want to tell this story until we got a report . . . but my former neighbor's dog got swarmed by hornets. The vet told them to start the benedryl and bring him in. They gave the dog the benedryl that they had on hand which was not just plain benedryl, it had some sort of pain reliever it in too. They had to pump the pooch's stomach :( and he had so many hornets stings that he ended up in the vet ICU for days . . . their total bill when all was said and done . . . $5,000. They said if they had known up front how much it would cost, they would have put him down, but it was always just one more thing, just one more test, just one more day. Everyone thought he was "just about to turn the corner" but the corner didn't come . . . and didn't come . . . until they had an outrageous bill . . . They've still got the pooch (and he's not so friendly).

Step-MIL is arriving in approximately 5 hours . . . kids still don't know about the probable move and we don't plan on telling them until their house sells. Their real estate agent thinks it'll take about two months. Not sure how we're going to explain Grandma's visit, though.

ranger Enthusiast

Awful dog story. $5,000.00! Must be some dog! Glad your dogs good.

This sues got the blues today. Feels like I've been glutened, but couldn't have. This two shall pass?

I love lasagna, but why is it always spelled wrong? I never misspell worlds.

Feeling slightly disjointed today.

Dingo-esque is when you look at the piece and can't quite figure it out, but it looks perfect. And you can wear it with flip-flops bottom painted red. Any of you ladies wear old-lady underwear yet? Some say, once you get into the comfort zone clothes, you can never get out. Something like the Hotel California. When I think about it, there are old-men unders,too.

Just ever-so-slightly before your time Sue . . . My father-in-law and his wife (step-MIL) visited us from Maryland 2 1/2 weeks ago. For fun, we went through the model of a nearby subdivision (within walking distance to our house). MIL fell in love and now they are planning to move . . . seem to be in a great big hurry. But it's all good . . . they're good folks. Me hubby is JUST like his dad . . . I know exactly what to expect as me hubby ages!!

There's never any explaining here......the kids just see my face and demeanor, and yell, "Whup! Must be a holiday around the corner....Gran's comin'".......

Not into granny pants yet.

Anyone wear a thong? I do not, but friends have told me to make the transition, as they are apparently very comfortable. Gads....aren't they always way up yer arse?

No thongs here--just can't understand how people can wear those when we spend the majority of our time picking wedgies....I enjoy my bikinis....

jerseyangel Proficient

Nope, no thong here either. I don't think I'd find them comfortable......I dunno, could be surprised, though. I really like full coverage betwix me and me clothes :P

Hee! Jess, I had phorgotten all about yer thong experience! :lol:

Moi? Non, merci. :huh:

My only exposure to thongs was reading about Monica Lewinsky; didn't even know they existed afore then :o Somehow don't fancy the idea....although me husband does smoke cigars :lol:

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Peoter no thong? We all live in an equal world so you do know it is acceptable ;)

Do you think they make thongs in Yeti sizes.....

And this may sound judgemental but thongs aren't for everyone.....so ladies of size shouldnt wear them and allow them to show...I know Fredericks of Hollywood has a plus-size department but that dont make it right!

ranger Enthusiast

Was Bill smoking the cigar?

I have to go to the grocery. Was going to have frozen pizza, but provalone got moldy! Now, I don't want pizza. What to do? Too late to take something out of the freezer - sick of cooking! Sick of eating. Bad day. I need a good joke. Maybe we'll have eggs. Then "The yolks on me"". What to have, what to have not.

mushroom Proficient

Yeah, it sucks. Much easier to figure out what to have not than to have :rolleyes:

Oh, EMOTI-BUSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Monica Lewinsky and cigars :lol:

THONGS???? been wearing them since high school, before they even existed, when I bunched up me panties and made them INTO a thong. now THAT was uncomfortable....but I DETEST panty lines...and BTW thongs are VERY comfortable, you can't even feel them, actually....

:ph34r:

:o WHERE"S ALL ME OTHER QUOTES? :angry:

pholks, if my computer dies, which it seems to be starting to do......we are in PSERIOUS trouble :(

Pholks can't seem to agree whether it should be lasagna or lasagne...Open Original Shared Link lists both.

well, I didn't check the link but, ONE lasagna noodle would be called lasagnA (feminine singular)

more than one, as in teh dish itself, should be feminine plural, ending in E - lasagnE.

soooooooooooo useful in Fresno, all the eye-talian I took <_<:lol:

am lapsing into boredom abyss.....too much time on my hands....going insane.....not happy.........this Soozle is a little blue today also :huh:

      Wow KK, thank you so much for all your attached info. I had a very quick scan but will read more in depth later.  The one concerning corticosteroid use is very interesting. That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.
    • knitty kitty
      Welcome to the forum, @suek54, I have Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  I found taking Niacin B3 very helpful in clearing my skin from blisters as well as improving the itchies-without-rash (peripheral neuropathy).  Niacin has been used since the 1950's to improve dermatitis herpetiformis.   I try to balance my iodine intake (which will cause flairs) with Selenium which improves thyroid function.   Interesting Reading: Dermatitis herpetiformis effectively treated with heparin, tetracycline and nicotinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10844495/   Experience with selenium used to recover adrenocortical function in patients taking glucocorticosteroids long https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24437222/   Two Cases of Dermatitis Herpetiformis Successfully Treated with Tetracycline and Niacinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30390734/   Steroid-Resistant Rash With Neuropsychiatric Deterioration and Weight Loss: A Modern-Day Case of Pellagra https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12532421/#:~:text=Figure 2.,(right panel) upper limbs.&text=The distribution of the rash,patient's substantial response to treatment.   Nicotinic acid therapy of dermatitis herpetiformis (1950) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15412276/
    • suek54
      Thank you all for your advice and the dermatitis herpetiformis article. The latter made me realise I had stopped taking my antihistamine, which I will restart today. The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.

      So, essentially all of the nutrition in the food we eat is absorbed through the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestinal track that is damaged by celiac disease. This villous lining is composed of billions of finger-like projections that create a huge amount of surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the celiac person, when gluten is consumed, it triggers an autoimmune reaction in this area which, of course, generates inflammation. The antibodies connected with this inflammation is what the celiac blood tests are designed to detect but this inflammation, over time, wears down the finger-like projections of the villous lining. Of course, when this proceeds for an extended period of time, greatly reduces the absorption efficiency of the villous lining and often results in many and various nutrient deficiency-related health issues. Classic examples would be osteoporosis and iron deficiency. But there are many more. Low D3 levels is a well-known celiac-caused nutritional deficiency. So is low B12. All the B vitamins in fact. Magnesium, zinc, etc.  Celiac disease can also cause liver inflammation. You mention elevated ALP levels. Elevated liver enzymes over a period of 13 years was what led to my celiac diagnosis. Within three months of going gluten free my liver enzymes normalized. I had elevated AST and ALT. The development of sensitivities to other food proteins is very common in the celiac population. Most common cross reactive foods are dairy and oats but eggs, soy and corn are also relatively common offenders. Lactose intolerance is also common in the celiac population because of damage to the SB lining.  Eggs when they are scrambled or fried give me a gut ache. But when I poach them, they do not. The steam and heat of poaching causes a hydrolysis process that alters the protein in the egg. They don't bother me in baked goods either so I assume the same process is at work. I bought a plastic poacher on Amazon to make poaching very easy. All this to say that many of the issues you describe could be caused by celiac disease. 
    • catnapt
      thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!! I can say with absolute certainty that the less gluten containing products I've eaten over the past several years, the better I've felt.   I wasn't avoiding gluten, I was avoiding refined grains (and most processed foods) as well as anything that made me feel bad when I ate it. It's the same reason I gave up dairy and eggs- they make me feel ill.  I do have a bit of a sugar addiction lol so a lot of times I wasn't sure if it was the refined grains that I was eating - or the sugar. So from time to time I might have a cookie or something but I've learned how to make wonderful cookies and golden brownies with BEANS!! and no refined sugar - I use date paste instead. Pizza made me so ill- but I thought it was probably the cheese. I gave up pizza and haven't missed it. the one time I tried a slice I felt so bad I knew I'd never touch it again. I stopped eating wheat pasta at least 3 yrs ago- just didn't feel well after eating it. I tried chick pea pasta and a few others and discovered I like the brown rice pasta. I still don't eat a lot of pasta but it's nice for a change when I want something easy. TBH over the years I've wondered sometimes if I might be gluten intolerant but really believed it was not possible for me to have celiac disease. NOW I need to know for sure- because I'm in the middle of a long process of trying to find out why I have a high parathyroid level (NOT the thyroid- but rather the 4 glands that control the calcium balance in your body) I have had a hard time getting my vit D level up, my serum calcium has run on the low side of normal for many years... and now I am losing calcium from my bones and excreting it in my urine (some sort of renal calcium leak) Also have a high ALP since 2014. And now rapidly worsening bone density.  I still do not have a firm diagnosis. Could be secondary HPT (but secondary to what? we need to know) It could be early primary HPT. I am spilling calcium in my urine but is that caused by the high parathyroid hormone or is it the reason my PTH is high>? there are multiple feedback loops for this condition.    so I will keep eating the bread and some wheat germ that does not seem to bother me too much (it hasn't got enough gluten to use just wheat germ)    but I'm curious- if you don't have a strong reaction to a product- like me and wheat germ- does that mean it's ok to eat or is it still causing harm even if you don't have any obvious symptoms? I guess what you are saying about silent celiac makes it likely that you can have no symptoms and still have the harm... but geez! you'd think they'd come up with a way to test for this that didn't require you to consume something that makes you sick! I worry about the complications I've been reading about- different kinds of cancers etc. also wondering- are there degrees of celiac disease?  is there any correlation between symptoms and the amnt of damage to your intestines? I also need a firm diagnosis because I have an identical twin sister ... so if I have celiac, she has it too- or at least the genetic make up for having it. I did have a VERY major stress to my body in 2014-2016 time frame .. lost 50lbs in a short period of time and had severe symptoms from acute protracted withdrawal off an SSRI drug (that I'd been given an unethically high dose of, by a dr who has since lost his license)  Going off the drug was a good thing and in many ways my health improved dramatically- just losing 50lbs was helpful but I also went  off almost a dozen different medications, totally changed my diet and have been doing pretty well except for the past 3-4 yrs when the symptoms related to the parathyroid issue cropped up. It is likely that I had low vit D for some time and that caused me a lot of symptoms. The endo now tells me that low vit D can be caused by celiac disease so I need to know for sure! thank you for all that great and useful information!!!
