Because, Miss Bev, you silly girl, I did not want to go through the two second effort to spell check Champagne. Christmas is over and I'm lazy...so cut me some slack jack. B)

I guess a good chilled Champ. would be good, but I would prefer a warm one. :P

Yes, a warm one would me much preferred! :lol::lol::lol:

Well I will be on here around 7 pm MST. I have cats to feed and a letter to drop off at the landlady just after 5 pm so, I am headed straight home after.

I remember on New Years Eve when my son was little we would rent movies and order chinese or pizza and have fun. So, now he is grown up and gone and it will be me, the cats, and all of you who come to party on-line with us and I will have Champagne, gluten-free pizza and chocolate. We can sit and toast the New Year and celebrate that we who are over 39 will now be another year younger this coming year. Just so everyone knows the rules if in this coming year your birth certificate says you are older than 39 then you start counting backwards to your rightful age.

...and if we are lucky we might make it to 10 o'clock or so.. :P

:P:D:D Oh, so true!

I usually am on the couch, with both dogs, reading a novel when the fireworks go off, while DH is asleep in bed. This year, I may still be on the couch, but hopefully asleep - I caught hubby's cold - darn!

Actually the Pagan New Year is around Samhain or Samhuinn, which is Halloween but we celebrate it from the Nov1-6 approx. Wiccans celebrate it on the 31 st of October. That is the end of our year because it is the last harvest. Yule (winter solstice Dec 21-23) is the beginning of our year. I am a Norse/Celtic reconstructionist Pagan. So, I get to celebrate twice, November for my religion and now with everyone else.

OMG- Chinese food. Every New Year's growing up! I miss it so much! I'm going over my sister's today (whole family) for it but I get to watch. I am a Chinese food voyeur! I'll bring my own lunch. If I could have a one day pass, Chinese food would DEFINITELY be on the list. Oh well!

This is the year I turn 40...or do I just stay 39 again and start counting back in 2008?

I want to hear more about Wicca too. I find it really beautiful. We celebrated Winter solstice just by paying attention to the stars and going to a planetarium show on the winter sky. I love the constellation Orion.

Laura- I hear you! We've been married for just over two years (together for 81/2) but I'll tell ya, ask my hubby and he probably would say it feels like 30! He just looked over my shoulder and said "40" B):ph34r: :ph34r:

My husband and I are invited to a 'redneck' party. You're supposed to dress and act like a redneck, and everybody is required to tell at least one redneck joke. It sounds like fun. Too bad I can't go, because they have cats and dogs, and I am severely allergic to those. My husband will go by himself, and I might just join you in hanging out here.

ROFL ...I'm live in Mississippi, just outside of Memphis; that sounds like a boring party! Same old, same old. :P

Church and Communion this morning (wine only ...thanks to Catholic friends for letting me know months ago that taking only one element 'counts', though I sort of already figured God's Grace had me covered :) ), then Mimosas and movies with a couple of friends tonight. Very low key since I don't care for parties.

Mtndog,

When Eric gets home, I'll have to ask him what its like to be married to me. Although I probably know the answer :) :) :)

We used to be so cool and do all kinds of fun things....now that just doesn't happen thanks to my health problems. Oh well, I'm just happy he still likes to hang out wih me! We've known each other since we were 12 (when we were stationed for two years in his hometown) - he was my boyfriend back then!! - and then started dating at age 19. We've been together 6.5 years now.....so I guess he's used to me ;).

So what are people's new years resolutions???!!!!

I haven't really made any resolutions. Although I would like to start getting in shape again. I was doing pretty good, and then ended up with back spasms and Bursitis in my hip on top of bone spurs, so had to let it go for just over a month, now I feel like I have to start over again. Frustrating, but oh well ........ such is life. <_<

So ... maybe getting into shape and curbing my chocoholicism ... just a wee bit. :lol: I'm sticking with the wine though!!!!!

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
