oh dear, Sarah.......

let me clarify.

I would ONLY remember if you wore something really ghastly and wore it again, or REALLY outstanding (like a Chanel suit), and wore it again.

If you're anywhere in between those two, I would NOT remember, honest truth.

so sorry to have caused you such duress!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, now speaking of Coco Chanel, let's remember her theory, which was something like.....if a woman walks into a room with a very busy, showy, or crazily-patterned outfit, people will say "look at that dress..." but if she walks in, carrying herself with great posture and poise in something quite simple and understated, highlighting the figger or whatever, they will say "look at that WOMAN."

Go with teh basic black, I PROMISE you no one will remember.

:)

Ooooookaaaaayyy..... Basic black, I can do... and really, was Coco ever wrong?

You wore a lab coat.

You were also trying to tell everyone that you were wearing Ugg's new fur boots but we all know you were going barefoot . . .

oh yeah...

at least my feet are finally warm

The lab coat reference reminded me that for my next audition for the musical theater I'm going to sing "I feel pretty" while putting on my very sensible shoes, lab coat, safety goggles, giant cryogloves, and putting my hair into the cabbage patch topknot.

Maybe I can start coloring my feet to improve my appearance

I am SOOO going out for a drink with you!!!! :lol::lol:

:lol: that's the spirit!!

(Wish I'd said that :angry: )

Hey! They can be female...Few people make more noise when watching hockey or football than I. Quite embarrassing, actually....even for me!

Yay!! Love this!!

How long is the lease? When does his daughter come back?

1 year lease. Lauryn WILL be here for at least a few days after Christmas!

And it's not really all that frequent w/ John. He's usually out a nearby bar while LOUD. And I think I can get him to quiet down in the future.

AND he's out-of-town on biz 4days/wk, incl now, which had a LOT to do w/ me thinking I could deal w/ a roomie.

I'd best just stay out of the wardrobe discussion.

'Cept to say gotta love Coco's take on it.

OMG I thought of somethign else......we at times can actually refer to all sodas as COKE out here. So...someone will say - "do you want a Coke" when they really mean - any kind of SODA POP :lol:

YES! I meant to throw in the all-encompassing "wanna coke?" myself!

Maybe that started for me when i went to Tucson for college. Hmmm :huh:

OMG I once scored a major fashion coup, over 15 years ago........it was a black suit, with tuxedo lapels with just a hint of satin on them........ . ..

......friends called it my Magic Suit ......... :rolleyes: and it really did have power.......

Hehehehehe Magic Suit :)

An old girlfriend, one I probably should've married :( , had some sort of tuxedo-ey yet very feminine, suit that she loved to wear.

One of my best friends of all time, and while we had a great talk and a ton of laughs on the phone recently, her husband is so against us keeping in touch, pffft it's done. :(

:lol:

Hooray for Janet!!! A sudden spike of silliness amongst a fashion/wardrobe discussion!!

Thank YOU m'dear!! :lol:

I wish I had a magic suit...To make my legs look four feet long, my bum to look smaller...you know...the stuff magic's made of... :rolleyes:

Last year to my Christmas party I wore this incredible Alfred Sung dress that I paid--ready?--twelve dollars for. Value Village. Conversation stopped when I walked into the dining room (Ha! This was, unfortunately, because the side and back of my dress was tucked up in my underwear). Indeed, my classiest of entrances... :o:lol:

Gus is post-op, still acting rather drugged. Stumbling around a bit, not eating. Big, expensive, slovenly beast!

Nope, one day as my coworker and I were walking up the sidewalk back to the hospital, a very strong gust of wind came and blew mu skirt right up to my chest. Of course, people were all over and I was facing the hospital so everyone saw me....

Well, my fingers are about to fall off. I wrote a manuscript on another thread and hit the post butten and . . . poof . . . it was gone. Had to rewrite it again. That's not funny, all my silly leaked out whilst typing.

To make matters worse, I'm in the middle of our annual Christmas letter. I pride myself on our family letter. There is no mention of any resume-type info or international trips or how our children are learning three languages simultaneously. I have people tell me that they actually look forward to it. There's so much pressure to be wittier every year. And I think I've used up all my wit on this board. The clock is tickin' and that letter is not getting funny!! Although, just so you girls (Susie & Sarah) know, the muffin-shaped projectiles and hot gravy jello have been mentioned under the topic of gluten-free cooking! :lol:

Jess, when you do your "I Feel Pretty" song, please have someone record it so we can all watch on youtube!

I've suddenly had a lifesaving idea for you, Janet...print out the last 250 pages of this thread, delete all posts but yours (or not...then your loved ones will be reading about Tom's drunk roomie, my dad the chameleon, Susie's neighboUrhood zombie...which my family might just LOVE), and send it all off with a big "This has been my life over the past few months. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Spanx Higher Power Magic Knickers

:lol:

You know, I still have the Magic Suit, in the back of the closet, gathering dust.....it's too old and tired to wear, even if I had MIRACLE KNICKERS to ameliorate the situation (note repeat usage of Word-A-Day type words to ensure proper integration into Janet's Christmas Epistle) :lol:

GAh!!!!!!! :lol:

Yes, however I could not find anything quote-worthy in my own posts........was wistfully reliving in my mind, however, the days when my Magic Suit was actually a necessary part of my life...... :huh: And now.......dressing up is changing from sweats to jeans.........

good gawd 'tis a mojo-less day.....................one just never knows when one awakens....whether one's mojo will show itself

Yes, quite necessary to use the words over and over until I, too, can use them in a sentence. I had to go back to dictionary.com and look it up AGAIN (after contemplating if this was one of the real words or not.)

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Is this celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person.  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Is this celiac?

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      A gluten ingestion can last for many months.  Many years ago there was a celiac conference in Fl.  Everyone there got contaminated with some having difficulty 6 months to recover.  It will hit your Lympatic system and spread  through the body and effect your nevous system as well. Most times when I get glutened it is from a prescription med that wasn't checked close enough.  the Pharmacuticals change vendors all the time.
