Just tell 'em to see the person who just volunteered to buy the food for their kids.

I usually say "As long as they don't use it on someone else." or "Keep your haircare to yourself!"

Applies to a couple of boys as well as the girls.

Now I have a parent that has told a bunch of the other parents that there is no cost to them for the kids to travel with the team. If a random someone decides the kids don't have to buy thier own food, does that make it so?

I'm going to hide in a hole, now. :ph34r:

How sweet of that parent to offer to pay for everyone's meals! :P

So, we are having a parent meeting to explain things. I know with 50 kids, a few parents might not be able to make it. One emailed me back to say they had something that night, could we change the date?

Felt like saying, " sure. for you. We will ask 100 people to change the date.". Or " Sure, we'll change it to May 2". After the season is over.

Ja, I know, "the world revolves around me" type :blink: Perhaps you would like to personally canvas all the parents and find one date when everyone is available :P

So my hub said that he assumes people ,like the one that wants the meeting changed for them, don't think before they email. He said he would rather believe that then that they thought it out and decided everyone should accomadate them.

So that makes these people " thoughtless"? Dumb? They get a GFT on the head to knock some sense into them!

Thoughtless.

Or they've never had to organize a group of people and have no idea what's involved.

Can you schedule the meetings a month out and tell everyone now so they can set their own schedules?

It won't matter. I know some people have bought tickets months ago to something, or 1 school has a band concert, etc. Its OK. I just couldn't believe they would think we would change the date for one family.

Nothing works for everyone, I guess.

Hello my dear psillies. - I've missed you all so much

I'm back from my nightmarish couple of weeks. It turned out my main problem was bad psychotropic drug interactions that I've been taking for years and they finally built up too high for my body weight. Now here's the scary and psilly part of it. I was trying to get in to see my psychiatrist earlier than my next appointment but he's having surgery and has no covering doctor and will only see suicidal patients. I don't know how to safely get off the worst of the drugs (depakote). Luckily Superman worked in the pharmaceutical field for 27 years and looked it up and the side affects. I'm slowly weaning myself off of the depakote and will be switching doctors. Right now I'm falling again (the depakote). I feel I have so much to be grateful for. My dear friends and the support they give me and my sweet Superman. After all the worry and and stress I put him under he bought me a Kindle Fire so I can read again. My eyesight is still hazy and now I can make the font size as large as I need to. I feel I'm on the road to recovery but still need to take it slow.

I'm still tiring easily so will end with an update on Tony. He has two internships this summer. One with one of his psychology professors and the other ...drumroll..... with the Public Defender's Office. I am SO proud of him!!! All right, time to eat lunch. My weight is still really low.

Lots of love wub.gifwub.gifwub.gifwub.gifwub.gif

Perhaps we should be careful when we complain about restaurant food and send it back to the kitchen???

A good chef must be passionate about his food!

Maybe Chuck Norris can set him straight! Now that would be a good food fight!

Argh I'm such a fb newb. Somehow after a hopefuUlly humoUrous paragraph on kitties' cereal, I hit Enter to post & it disappears! No magic triangle of course.

And this was AFTER it kept posting fromi though my hitting Enter when I wanted newline.

Anyway .. . . .even Toucan Sam made an appearance.

I thought Gianknit & Joolz & maybe Pseuzee & Behvel did a lot of fb.

No, you're right, Ptaoughmm....there is NO magic triangle o'er in that other place......but hey, you can LIKE something!

And poke people.......

Actually, I have never poked anyone. Ever. The odd time I wish we could slap someone. <_<

And I KNOW, I simply HATE that hit-enter-and-your-post-is-public..... . .. ..I often do this. If you want to simply skip to a new line, hit "enter" and "shift" at the same time......:)

Read this as: "When you want to skip to a new line, you hit "enter" and say "sh!t" at the same time."

.....it didn't work for me :unsure: :unsure:

I only do FB on my computer or iPad. I can't see anything that dinky on my phone! :blink:

      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…

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products
