WardGirl is what I refer to myself and many other girls who drool over a character on a TV show that we like.

Leave it to Beaver?

Be careful what you ask for: you might get it. Hmmm. Do you think Emily really wants a wake-up phone call to let her know how Michelle did? I have her number... :o

I think she does.

Midnight there is only 9pm here. So PM me her # and I'll take care of it. ;)

First off not to offend anyone but you are missing an 'i' in my name. It's JacquIe. WardGirl is what I refer to myself and many other girls who drool over a character on a TV show that we like. And yes we do get locked up in a Ward on a regular bases. It keeps the streets safer :lol:

Yay, another commonwealther! I think we are on our way to outnumbering the Yanks! But really I think we all belong to a unique nation here. Our own sillyville utopia.

Is anyone else seeing the lunar eclipse tonight? My dad brought over his telescope for us to look at it through.

We're in a class all by ourselves :lol:

How are you feeling, Alex? Much better, I hope :)

Yes much better today, thanks :) ! Just a little worn out with a itchy eye but my throat and stomach are pretty much back to normal. My brother is pretty much better too. My dad, grandpa, and Colin were all over this evening looking at the eclipse. I was very happy to feel well enough to enjoy their company. We've had a stressful few weeks in our family so I'm hoping everything is going to be all quiet on the home front for awhile. :D

Alex,

I'm happy to hear that things are settling down for you :) You've all had quite a time of it lately.

I know who she drools over, but I'm not telling. ;)

As to the race, the first two teams finished just after midnight Yukon time today. Yukon is on Pacific time, three hours behind the east coast, and the same time as California.

The final stretch is 100 miles from Braeburn Lodge to Whitehorse. The route is overland and away from the highway, mostly following the Yukon River. David Dalton officially left 17 minutes ahead of Michelle, but Open Original Shared Link, and lost some time getting away. His loss is Michelle's gain.

Go, Michelle!

Well Sillies, its been another short week. Work is crazy! Morale is pretty good these days and after my big worry over my new study, my buddies have been right there to help. My big meeting was Monday and one coworker sat in with me so she could help me as I start my first big study. It was great to know I have that support.

As for my earlier dabbacle about my appointment. I have even been scheduled into the Reproductive Endo clinic, not the regular gyn place. The woman I see I have seen for all my exams prior since I was an IVF donor. I will be more comfortable there. I was told that since she is my provider, I will continue to be seen there in that clinic although I would not be a "typical" patient....strange huh? Hopefully I can get in earlier than April.

sorry to discuss such non-silly things but I was peeved this afternoon!

Work has been busy too!!! I cannot believe that tomorrow is Thursday. I have been sleeping better than I have in a long time.

My mom and my sister Tammy and Sabrina and my niece Silvia may visit on Saturday (weather permitting) they want to come see Natalie and her new baby. Our families get along real well. So keep all your fingers crossed that they come down to visit.

:lol::lol:

I'm sure it's going to end up being Emily's dad again . . . He probably played a Ward somebody or other or a Mr. Ward somewhere along the way.

Yes, Yes!! The kids and I saw it. . . My daughter pointed out the full moon on the way out this evening and then when we were coming home she said "Look, the moon isn't full anymore!!" She's one observant smart cookie. . . she's gonna be trouble when she gets older.

Yes much better today, thanks :)

Good morning, sillies.

Michelle finished fourth, 46 minutes behind David Dalton and almost 2 hours ahead of Brent Sass. She crossed the finish line at 11:30 Yukon Time, which is 2:30 here, so I slept through it.

Open Original Shared Link

Well done!

Darn210 Enthusiast

Congrats Michelle!!!!

elye Community Regular

Morning, all!

Well...Michelle finished fourth. Couldn't quite catch the Damned Dalton! I'm sure she's exhilarated, and headed immediately for the shower. Apparently with the remainder of prize money after expenses, she wants to go to Belize for a week. -40 for 11 days in darkness, I should think so......

Way to go, Michelle!! Thanks for keeping me thrilled these last two weeks, and to all you guys for smiling politely and indulging me! :lol:;)

Phirst I told Jacquie to look at a really phunny post kwite a while back, then she pstarting peeking in phrom time to time, and now, good greeph, she has joined and pstarted posting. Where will the psilliness end? Pass the absinthe, please. I need the phaeries.

Peter!! I do hope you've explained to Jacquie the reason for our omitting the "I" from her name....you know...that rampant Irritable Vowel Syndrome that afflicts many Sillies from time to time.....

I think she does.

Midnight there is only 9pm here. So PM me her # and I'll take care of it. ;)

HEY!! Didn't hear from any of youse guys last night!!

I'm sure it's going to end up being Emily's dad again . . . He probably played a Ward somebody or other or a Mr. Ward somewhere along the way.

It could very well be....and Jacquie could very well not even know that the character she dreams about is in fact an eighty-three year old Ottawan in a retirement residence. Yet another very important thing to let Jacquie in on, Peter...I'm wondering now about David Dalton, actually--I heard an audio feed of his voice, and....I dunno...sounds suspiciously like the fatherly voice of my childhood.....could it have been?! :lol:

Good Morning Sillies!!!

Wow, congrats to Michelle and her wonderful doggies!

We have a nasty bit of weather moving in late tonight and all day tomorrow....ugh! The commutes will be fun tomorrow. Anyone else besides Patti and Judy (who are in the same state as me) getting winter weather tomorrow?

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
