Sumphin to get yer mind off all that.....I have an appointment wif Estaban :wub: tomorrow morning and am planning (unless I chicken out) to get me hair cut short Mark's actually on board with this.....I need a change.....

Esteban!!!!!!! yay! too much face :lol: you silly bundt!

Susie . . . you need to move to better . . . cooler . . . rainier . . . climes!!! Apparently Kit needs to, too.

:( I know.........I know! but.......I can live here 3/4 of the year (2/3 may be more accurate) if I JUST had a cabin in the Kaiser Wilderness, 1.5 hours north :lol: Would STAY up there for months at a time, perfectly content!! *sigh*

Wee Kit :unsure::wub:

the poor microcephalic baby DID show some playfulness last night (fleeting) and DID give Weez some kisses........ :wub:

he still shows ME affection regularly - and LOVES when I am in the bathroom....is somehow fascinated when me hair's wet and I've just emerged from the shower. Sits on the ledge and claws at my hair - it hurts - and then purrs and purrs :blink: In fact, he sits on that ledge any time I am in the bathroom and purrs his wee head off - I dunno why :lol: 'tis adorable

I love how Al Sharpton told MJ's kids yesterday......."there's nothing strange about yer dad"

:unsure:

why did all the brothers dress identically AND wear sequined gloves?

Got now't, except to say HI!...and Boris also has a small wee head - virtually no psillie in him or me

Talking of haircuts......Lucy (the not so friendly she-devil cat) has matts on her back nr her tail....... been risking life and limb trying to brush 'em out (teaming up with DC a.k.a. the cat whisperer)

He gently talks and strokes her head during the procedure

Anyhoo, she (we) had had(? why does that look all wrong?) enough and resorted to cut them out.......she has a VERY bad fur-cut (it's a very choppy look) and won't go out 'til after dark

Patti, Pics will be needed of the phab new 'do'

*snoooooooooort* Loved this whole thing :lol:

poor Lucy!

DC is a cat whisperer? phabulous.......

Me thinks perhaps KitKat is picking up on your somber mood.

the little scalawag! nope, he's not smart enough, really. He had a two-week (long-acting) steroid shot that really subdued his personality. That appears to be wearing off. I've switched his food......I think I just gave him brain damage when I nearly killed him :ph34r:

but he's still adorable

Suz--p-shaw! It takes a lot more than that to scare me off :D

:wub:

OK, I accidentally 'friended' someone on da book instead of hitting ignore. We apparently were in the same HS graduating class, but I have no idea who she is. What's the etiquette here? Send her a 'who in H are you?' note? Unfriend her? Pretend it never happened and ignore all her posts?

this is a toughie. I had a complete stranger friend-request me, and I finally wrote a very sweet note and said......"do I know you, did we go to college together or something like that?"

but one from high school.......best to pretend you know who she is. She probably has a girl crush on you.

more later Sills.............

selling tickets to the Psillie Thread :lol: :lol:

Brooke looks really gorgeous, doesn't she? If I only had that hair......what power I would have :lol:

I, too, have seen most of it, pieced together. :ph34r: Was fascinated with the spectacle of it. And, truly, I think MJ was just so amazingly talented.....esp. his younger works, of course, and most esp. with the Jackson 5. That was really sumfin, and I think they were just really something and I loved them.

and......I will confess.......I think the Thriller video is the best video of all time

:ph34r::lol:

Derek's fixing my car.........I think....... :unsure:

You silly. :lol: Derek is the man child guy that I work with, whom I adore, who fixes all my stuff.

He just fixed my old Jeep for less than half the cost. I am thrilled.

Kit seems to be getting a bit of personality back into his microcephalic little head. Am thrilled at that also.

Just wanted to share with you all - I'm planning on thinking today. :o

This requires loud music (headphones) and no shoes and much tugging of hair (not sure why this is necessary, but it seems to be). If all goes well I will actually have a complete outline of everything I've done (on one project) for the last two years. Don't see any point in doing this, except that I'll have a really good time.

And I made the coffee in the breakroom this morning, so for once it's strong enough. :P

There is so much potential in this post . . . but I'm drawing a blank . . . it escapes me. I want to point this out now so that when I post at 3am with the perfect response, you'll know how hard I had to work on it . . . perhaps I should start tugging me hair.

Lisa- Glad your scare with Nathan is over :D

To everyone else ((((((((((HELLO))))))))))))))))!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Miss you guys- not much silly or energy these days but I had fun, fun, fun in Vermont. Kurt and I (and my dad, sis and her family) all went up for the 4th of July. I couldn't find me a Champ costume. Went as a woodland nympho.

Peter and Em- I could practically swim to Canada from where I was but unfortunately, 'twould have been Quebecians waiting with a towel, not Ontarians- and I wouldn't have understood them as they speak their Quebecois French. I could NOT, however, swim to Ontario.

I am now, as they say, pooped!

Tissues will have to be passed around at DD's wedding fer sure!

For the father/daughter dance, the music will be "I Hope You Dance"

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

You get your fill to eat, but always keep that hunger

May you never take one single breath for granted

God forbid love ever leave you empty handed

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens

Promise me that you'll give fate a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance, I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance

Never settle for the path of least resistance

Living might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking

Loving might be a mistake but it's worth making

Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter

When you come close to selling out, reconsider

Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance (time is a wheel in constant motion always)

I hope you dance (rolling us along)

I hope you dance (tell me who wants to look back on their youth and wonder)

I hope you dance (where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean.

Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens.

Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance.

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

Dance, I hope you dance

I hope you dance (time is wheel in constant motion always)

I hope you dance (rolling us along)

I hope you dance (tell me who wants to look back on their youthand wonder)

I hope you dance (where those years have gone)

repeat 1x

I hope you dance

I know it's basically about taking chances in love, but in this case it's more about not fearing what life has handed you, and and live life to the fullest.

david's mother died when he was young.....she committed suicide. David is convinced it was because of his father. He has not spoken to him in a loooong time. A friend's mother befriended David while he was growing up and became, in a sense, his "mother'. She will be flying up from Florida to be at the wedding.

The music for the mother/son dance will be "You and Me Against the World"

GAAAHHHH!!!!!! I CAN'T STAND IT!!!!!..........pass the tissues please....*sniff*

Some of Brian's family will be seeing him for the first time since the accident. Methinks this will be quit an emotional gathering. :rolleyes:

The wedding will be awesome. It will be at my in-laws' house. They have a beautiful piece of property. The back yard has a steep drop down to a horseshoe-shaped creek with lots of trees. Flowers and ferns are planted along the steps down and along the creek. The wedding will take place within the horseshoe. They have a cable running from a tree at the top to a tree at the bottom. There will be a porch swing seat attached to the cable and Father and daughter will ride that down to the altar.

Pretty cool, huh? B)

Don't worry, it has been tested and deemed perfectly safe :)

Oh Lisa--the wedding sounds like absolute perfection :D

      endomys is, aka, "EMA" and is a celiac disease antibody test. It was negative. gliaiga is, aka, IGP-IGA, is also a celiac disease antibody test. It was negative. TRANSGLUA is, aka, TTG-IGA, another celiac disease antibody test. It was in normal range. tranigg is, aka, TTG-IGG, still another celiac disease antibody test. It was high, or above normal range. immaqnt is, I believe, what is also known as "total IGA" and at 160, looks to be in normal range since it wasn't flagged otherwise. This is a test for IGA deficiency. If someone is IGA deficient then all other IGA test scores cannot be trusted as being accurate. You are not IGA deficient. Here is a primer explaining the various tests that can be used to diagnose celiac disease: Celiac disease blood antibody testing is not valid when someone has been gluten free or eating low gluten for a significant period of time. The IGA tests are more specific for celiac disease than are the IGG tests but your slightly high TTG-IGG test score could reflect that you have celiac disease and have had low level exposure to gluten over time or a recent exposure. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).

      I'm 70, had gut issues my whole life.  15 years ago my grandchild was diagnosed with celiac.  Since I had a constant either constipation or diarrhea and what the doctors thought was fibromyalgia and other issues I decided to see what happens if I quit gluten.  I got a lot better.  BTW, 30 years ago I had head & neck cancer, the radiation destroyed my thyroid.  I suffer from chronic fatigue and have to take synthroid. A few months ago, I bought a bottle of Ice water, I was thirsty and all they had at the motel was this.  It said sugar free and had a bunch of vitamins.  I couldn't read the fine print so I thought it's safe, so I bought several bottles (it had sucralose and maltodextrin in it).  I thought one per day would be ok and it absolutely was delicious.  In the meantime, my wife found some links and bratwurst for breakfast, we didn't know it had wheat in it and we picked up a half gallon of her favorite ice cream and unknown to us they had changed the formula and added wheat.  I had several meals and several bottles before I realized something was wrong.  Did all the sugar add to the issue?   In a day, I wasn't feeling well, my joints started swelling.  In a couple days, I thought sure I had gout in both hands.  In three days, I needed help to stand up or sit down, the pain was extreme.  I went to the emergency room.  They took blood and gave me cholchistine to alleviate the gout, it did nothing.  I didn't get a report on the test.  The next week the doctor ordered more blood tests and it's all acronyms but a couple items on celiac were listed as high.  The nurse I asked about the report had no clue and the RA was negative.  This has been ongoing for over a month and only now am I able to use my hands, but it's painful. Under the Celiac labs headline it says:  endomys-Negat gliaiga-  5 gliaigg-  1 TRANGLUA -3 tranigg-  8  (high) immaqnt-  160 Rheumatoid factor <12 Thyroid stimulating hormone: 2.81 Does anyone know what this means?
    • Tuba1971
      I had been glutened from somewhere since I pretty much make all my food from scratch. I had to have an endoscopy which should gluten damage, had blood work which also indicated high gluten. 4 years ago when I had these tests my gluten levels were all in good alignment. It comes down to my levothyroxin accord brand that must have gluten in it. I switched to synthroid 3 weeks ago and have been doing much better and am able to sleep at night again.
    • PA Painter
      That somes it up. It is worth mentioning GliadinX does not reduce symptoms for me at all. I also react to banana, avacado, cabbage, Oatmeal, and pecans among other things. If anyone else out there is like me, I had to eliminate gluten and all processed food before I could start to heal. I wish I had know this a long time ago. Thanks for the acknowledgement.
    • Viroval
      Thanks for sharing this detailed explanation. It’s really helpful to understand the differences between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. I had no idea that gluten withdrawal could feel similar to addiction, and it’s great to have that context when considering how it affects people. It’s also good to know how important it is to continue eating gluten for accurate testing. I’ll keep all of this in mind!
