HI SILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

SOOOOZLE!!!!!!! :wub: :wub: :wub:

Come baaaack!!!!!

New law rule proclamation....whatever, that all instructional assistants must take a test to prove they are capable of doing their job. Fail it, and you no longer have a job. So.....the school district gives everyone practice tests, provides tutoring sessions, more practice tests, helpful booklets, yada yada. Time allotted for the test....2 1/2 hours, 90 questions. I took a practice test, ignored everything else.

Finished the test in a little over an hour. 100%!!!!! Yay me! B)

I believe that one does not normally consider disposing of something until the something has been used up. To make the disposal the governor of the consumption is a bit like putting the cart before the horse, so to speak. The disposal is considered once the consumption has occurred, or something like that. Otherwise one would come to think of the consumption as a chore which would spoil its enjoyment, which would mitigate against the self-righteousness one would feel in disposing of the something in an environmentally sound and timely manner. Unless, of course we are talking of.... wait.... five liters??????

So now I'm trying to empty the wine bottle. Is this the correct approach to the issue? Or should I go buy another 5 liters of wine and try to finish it in 6 days?

Try? Try? Um.. . . .this is a task that you would have to actually make an effort at?.. . ... .. :huh:

:lol:

But of course! Way to go, Leeeesargh! B)

L, I've been meaning to ask you something I've been wondering about for some time now....perhaps I've even asked you about it already.. .. . ....when people who use sign language are thinking of something spoken, do they see li'l hands moving in their heads? :huh:

Welllll......I never really thought about it, but I suppose it makes sense.

And of course when they dream, too.......Which reminds me of the time I went to a football game at the deaf school. I was trying to get from the stands to the concession stand, and there were all these people standing around in groups of 2, 3, 4, whatever, hands going like crazy everywhere. It was so eerily quiet, except for the faint sound of moving hands. And I was trying to weave my way through this huge crowd. It felt like a forest of deaf people.....so surreal....like a really bizarre dream.

Hi! Here's the skinny on the pez. Open Original Shared Link

It's 13,058.80 USD!! Nice amount for charity but one collector said the highest price paid so far for a pez was $32,000 (??? wha? :blink: )so he expects the Royal pez to go a lot higher. I'm waiting to bid... :lol:

Been there done that. Boy, that was some week! :o

Seriously....not kidding :P I'm one of the lucky ones. Menopause was pretty uneventful. This is my theory.......I am almost always cold, layering clothes all the time. So my 'hot flashes' appeared as more like 'warm moments'. Quite pleasant, actually. :D

Honey......I'm into my 50's and still got 'em. Just went to the dermatologist the other day and got a prescription. It's awesome! My daughter brought home some samples a couple months ago and I loved it! So I made an appointment with my dermatologist to get my own. I figure...at my age, I deserve clear skin. What took me so long?

Would someone please tell me how to fix my multi-quote???

Wow . . . I guess everyone was busy yesterday!!!

Well, I can tell you that I went birding and then came home and finished Sarah's Key. I did realy like the beginning of it . . . the ending was fair . . . I wanted to hear more about Sarah and less about Julia. It is better than the last few books we've had at book club.

Today is all about mulch. I ordered Friday, had it delivered yesterday, and today I will watch my husband distribute it around the yard :P

I'm in Tulsa for my boy's lacrosse tournament. M is very excited because they let him play a lot ( by his standards).

Had one kid yesterday vomiting. Woke up this morning & M at the door. His roommate was vomitting. Then started hearing the people next door vomitting. Then someone in the hall, then the other next door!

R checked on M's roomie. He vomits for allergies ( pollen, grass, etc) the morning after the exposure. The other rooms aren't our kids. There was a wild wedding and prom kids with rooms last night.

I lead such an exciting life.

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
