Happy New Year Nikki - How's 2008 lookin' so far? Are we going to like it?

Our plans just fizzled. We were suppose to go to the neighbors across the street. I called to find out what time to come and what to bring and was informed it was cancelled due to lack of interest/too many people out of town. Bah!!!!

I now have a new plan. After putting the kids to bed, I will make myself a toasted almond (Kalhua, Amaretto, & Ice Cream) and watch Chicago (I have it on DVD)!

OMG!!!!!!!!! my mom was here, photo shoot of the girls and me for my fabulous idea of New Year's cards, managed to get even Stinker up on the couch.......I look rather okay, for once.....she took about 40 pictures, in two sets, on my digital.......and EVERY SINGLE ONE blurry beyond recognition. :blink:

Do you not see that this is perfect for New Year Eve pictures? It's an artistic representation of how you all were feeling and all that.

Thanks! That's what Adam said, too, that we look like sisters ... in fact, more so than me real sisters, LOL!

Patti, I noticed your hair, too. :)

~alex~ Explorer
And has anybody heard if the special adhesive garland (ie, duct tape) was all that Alex needed to finish off her tree?

Yes!! We finally got our tree to stand up with a combination of rope and duct tape. My dad thought it was hilarious when he saw it.

Happy New Year!!!

I hope 2008 is happy and healthy for everyone

Hee Hee--thanks.....I had a full inch cut off 2 weeks ago

I had to bite the bullet--the ends were a little crispy :P

Hee Hee--thanks.....I had a full inch cut off 2 weeks ago B)

I had to bite the bullet--the ends were a little crispy :P

It's still long!

A couple months ago I cut about three inches off .... I had lost so much hair that when it grew back about six inches of ends looked really bad because what didn't fall out had really bad breakage ... I have about three inches of ends that still need cut but I'm letting it grow a little more first.

It does need a good cut once in a while, doesn't it? :)

John got some much needed rest this weekend and we are off tomorrow, he was off at 12 today. I think that helped!!!!

Patti I love your hair!!!

We are watching Jon and Kate plus 8. Those parents are always quarrelling....I think that is why John likes it.

Just a quick visit to say HAPPY NEW YEAR, SILLIES.

I know some stuff about cats, but feline behavioUr is a special subject in itself. They understand it, but tell us humans very little. We don't know how our tortoiseshell knows when we are finished dinner, but she does. She knows that it is time to ask for treats. We can finish our salads and get up--nothing. If we are planning a dessert, nothing happens after the main course. But when we finish the last course, whatever that may be, she knows!

Other cat behavioUr questions I will leave to next year to ponder.

Janet, it is good to finally see you. Patti, you are looking good.

Nikki, you are getting to understand me too well. ;)

Emily, keep an eye on the yeti. A New Year may bring forth uninhibited exuberance about the future causing him to exhibit unlimited enthusiasm for 2008. Be careful you don't step in it! :o

1 hr to go all Eastern time Sillies....

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL MY EAST COAST TIME SILLIES!!!!!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR Sillies!!!! (I have an hour and a half to go....)

Amanda, I watch John and Kate Plus 8, SIX 3 year olds is madness, craziness! I just stare and shake my head in awe at all the chaos :lol: I kinda like Kate, she's really spunky.

OMG Emily, I was reading through catching up and I almost had a pee in my pants moment when you said you wake up with the 2 cats staring at you and amazingly enough the yeti is in right there in the middle of them staring too.

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Sorry Susie, that is where our similarities in tastes in movies end because I LOVE Chicago and Moulin Rouge, in fact Moulin Rouge is probably on my top 5 favorite list.

And YES, do it! Run around Stepford with the Zombie guy banging your pots and pans as loud as you can. Better yet take your Iroquis skull crusher with you, nobody will notice a thing.....make sure you capture this kodak moment for us all.

Janet and Carla, that's so neat you guys met up. I'll have to go back and check out the avatar, and Patti's too!

Feel better Nikki!

Bev you too!

I got this cute email with Garfeild, member him? It said something like we all get fat when we get older because we have retained so much information in our brain that there's no more room so it spills over into our body :lol:

*edit, great picture of you Janet and Carla.

And Patti you look gorgeous!! Are you by chance wearing your new Everyday Mineral make-up??!?!? :lol:

Julie- Those babies, the sextuplets were born in the hospital John and I work at...Did you ever see the one where they go to the NICU reunion? It was filmed at our hospital.

Welcome to 2008, everybodyyyyy!

I'm the FIRST silly to post this year! I think I should have some sort of honoUrary mention...no crown or royal posting, please (Gasp! Which is coming up, is it not? The big 500th page?!))...But I do notice some after midnight postings, my time, from last night. So I guess I'm not cutting it--once again, a little late. :rolleyes:

Great party last night. We wanted to disguise the yeti somewhat, as we figured that he may terrify the little kids. We could find nothing that would cover him enough, and/or that was big enough. Finally, the light bulb went off. I rushed to my husband's garden-fresh hockey bag, pulled out the equipment, and on it went.

Just got the helmet, visor, and cage on his head, pads had to really stretch. He accompanied us to the party as a European relative on the National Slovenian U21 team. Amazing...no one asked why he came to the party in his full gear. No one stared and then left the room as I introduced him (like at OTHER get-togethers of the holidays)... <_<

John is still recovering, he has a viral infection....he just cannot face marriage :)

:lol::lol: ...THAT'S why my DH gets many colds!! :rolleyes:

Amanda--we're in for the night, too. :) Got the tree and the decorations taken down and put away.

ALL the decoration are GONE! AWAY!! Feels like Christmas never happened!! :rolleyes:

OMG Emily, I was reading through catching up and I almost had a pee in my pants moment when you said you wake up with the 2 cats staring at you and amazingly enough the yeti is in right there in the middle of them staring too.

He was staring quite a bit at the party last night...mostly at the family cat. Later I realized he was probably trying to see out of the visor and cage, as it was so tight and fogged up. Kept tripping, heading into walls...I thought he was inebriated, but no--he just could not see. :blink:

Janet and Carla, that's so neat you guys met up. I'll have to go back and check out the avatar, and Patti's too!

BIG-time jealousy, here!! Gret pic of you two!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!! :D

Happy New Year Sillies!!

I hope that you all have a Happy, Healthy, and Successful Year

Thanks! That's what Adam said, too, that we look like sisters ... in fact, more so than me real sisters, LOL!

Maybe my sister looks like your sisters - 'cause I don't think she looks that much like me. However, the pic of your oldest daughter looks a LOT like my niece.

ALL the decoration are GONE! AWAY!! Feels like Christmas never happened!! :rolleyes:

Undecorating starts tomorrow. The problems is where to put all the crap presents that the kids got.

My quiet New Years was nice. I had a few Cosmo's which were good. I woke up at 7 this morning and came out on the couch...My big cat was there and he made room for me...a true gentlecat and then I woke up late....few minutes ago and the cat is still here and keeps nudging me as I type.

We have a New Years dinner at MIL's to go too, don't really want to go either...

Happy New Years Sillies!!!!!

Lucky is waving his paw at all of you!!

      Well the conflicting results continue as the biopsy has come back negative. 😵‍💫 Waiting to discuss further but I really don’t know what to think now? Eight biopsy’s were taken from duodenum which surely should be sufficient if it was coeliac? 
    • Pasballard
      I have Celiacs and want you to be aware of the amount of weight you can potentially put on if you rely on gluten free snacks, bread etc.,they  are high in carbs.  I put on 25 lbs in a short amount of time.  Whole Foods are the best way to go but I struggle with this.  The cost of gluten free is also a problem.  I love black licorice but most have gluten.  My favorite chili seasoning as well.  The list is endless.  I take  Advil liquid gels and had no idea until I read this.  I hope you do better than I have done.  I feel I am destined to suffer daily no matter what.  My aunt didn’t take care of herself and died from complications.  I hope you can get on a good routine.
    • growlinhard1
      Thank you, I appreciate the response. I'm going to begin the gluten free diet and wait for the biopsy results. I feel fairly certain that it's the right thing for my well being. I will keep you posted.

      The flu vaccine is indeed not 100% effective every year, as its effectiveness varies depending on how well the vaccine strains match the circulating flu viruses. However, even in years when the match is less than perfect, the flu vaccine still provides significant benefits. Studies consistently show that vaccinated individuals who contract the flu often experience milder symptoms, a lower risk of complications, and a reduced likelihood of hospitalization or death compared to those who are unvaccinated. For high-risk groups, such as the elderly, young children, and individuals with chronic health conditions, the flu vaccine remains a critical tool for reducing severe outcomes. Regarding the mention of risks associated with vaccines, it’s important to note that the flu vaccine is generally very safe for most people. Serious side effects are extremely rare, and the benefits of vaccination far outweigh the risks for the vast majority of individuals. If someone has specific concerns about vaccine safety due to medical conditions or allergies, they should consult their healthcare provider to discuss their options. As for alternative measures like a D Lamp (ultraviolet light disinfection), while these can be useful for reducing pathogens in the environment, they are not a substitute for vaccination. The flu virus spreads primarily through respiratory droplets, and personal protection measures like hand hygiene, masking, and improving indoor ventilation can complement vaccination but cannot replace its targeted immune protection.

      Because you have already had the "gold standard" test done, and because you have some experiential evidence that removing gluten from your diet causes you to feel better, it would make sense to begin the gluten-free diet as you wait for biopsy results.
