Unless 8 of those hours are meditation and intertube water polo, you have lost your mind.

I have been searching for "coffee stirrers". You know the little straws or even better, the little sticks you stir a cup of coffee with? They only exist at Starbucks? Not at Costco, Walmart, a grocery store,Target, office supply store (they have cups and coffee makers) or Bed, Bath & Beyond. Guy at BB&B suggested i get the craft popsicle sticks.

We got them at our local Walmart. You could also try Sams?

Hey! Whaddayaknow? A Spruezelle sighting!

Annual poop-in or hangin around some?

[60s Batman TV announcer voice] "Tune in tomorrow, same bat-time, same bat-channel" but "scat" for bat.

Wow Shadow, quite a courseload! Have you done 18+ credit sems before?

When I've overloaded, something inevitably gets less attn than it should. I ended up dropping one so I could get the most from the others.

(Astrology=Astronomy?) :unsure:

HiYa SuZee. Good to see you here. I was just thinking of you! I came across the word ameliorate today in a book I'm reading. . . you're the only person I know who uses that word.

Love how tom managed to work in "poop-in" and "scat" into his post with just the mere presence of Suzelle. :lol:

Don't belong to Sam's. Just got back from trying the other Walmart & found some of the little straw kinds. They had 2 boxes. Must be a big demand for coffee stir sticks.

HI Suze!

Just a thought, Kerrighnne--if you go with the wine, you won't need stir sticks B)

Don't office supply stores have these? I could swear they'd be at an OfficeDespot(sp?)-type store.

jerseyangel Proficient

I thought that too, Pataughmn but K said she checked there.

Sometimes it's crazy that you can't find something that you know you've seen a million times. Recently, I searched everywhere I could think of to buy kitchen matches. Not the book kind, or the real long ones. Finally found some at the second Wal Mart I checked.

....Well, I'll go check -- there may be a box at the bottom of my ho'tub... . . .... (speakin' of old-school psilly)..... :rolleyes:

Hi everybody :) Missed you nutballs, will check in more often, NOT just a POOP-IN, methinks....but this danged computer is SLOW AS MOLASSES :angry: proabaly cloged with SCAT.

stirring sticks ??? what in hell is this big crisis ? :lol: do you have a Smart and Final back there? (or, Fart and Smile as we like to call it) they will have stirring sticks up the wazoo, fo' shizzle.

I don't even know what these sticks are FOR. :lol:

Hmmmmmm . . . <_< . . . <drumming fingers on the table>

It's after 5:00 . . . where the hell are you guys???

So(a)ring high among the clouds. Went down the back to the galley place where flight attendants hang out to get a bandaid for the piece of thumbnail I mostly pulled off on the seat hinge, and found a party going on :D Mostly bloody mary's though so got me a glass of whine. Why, oh why do they make you pull down the shades so peeps can't watch clouds so other peeps can watch those dumb carved up movies they show -- well, maybe it does keep the kids quiet :rolleyes: The back section of the plane was filled with a Koru (ANZ club members) Care group of disadvantaged kids and their carers who had spent two weeks in CA courtesy of the airline (flight attendants gave up their airmiles :) ), now there's an aaawww for ya!!!

Just voted! Line was long already. I showed up right about 6am as thier were opening and got out about 647am. Line was longer when I left then when I arrived.

We voted at the library on Oct.30 - yep, Nevada is a state with early voting. Full electronic machine experience without the lines :lol: and I had to return my books anyway.

I am predicting "to close to call" to night, and a long drawn out post election battle. Have been predicting that for months now. Time to test my prediction i guess. ;)

So much for that prediction :P

Shoulda met up for a post-election party/sleepover.

"We will drink until we have a president - and then we will drink to the president! (Because by then, none of us will really care who got elected....)"

Sounds like a dangerous precedent.....

Right.

I've had the comforter on the past 2 weeks. Our bedroom is over the garage--coldest room in the house even with the heat on.

Obvious solution is to heat the garage :P (or at least put some bats batts (thinking of Shadow Spook here) in the ceiling).

Esd that a genyouwhine psoozle return, or just a teaser??? Hi, Psoozle. Hang around, dangit, we need ya.

jerseyangel Proficient

Shroom!! Are you really in the air right now?

mushroom Proficient

I don't even know what these sticks are FOR. :lol:

They are the only thing apart from one's finger with which to scoop out the cinammon/chocolate flavored foam from a capucchino (and a darned poor job they do of it, too ---finger would do much better job but a little gauche and a trifle embarrassing.

mushroom Proficient

I was in the air at the time of which we are speaking. You know B) I wouldn't use forbidden electronics during flight, surely??? Moi??

It is as cold here right now as it was in Nevada :ph34r: No summer attire yet.

Clay finally got computers running on Airport Express wifi (slow as molasses, as if the board wasn't slow enough now) until the hoped-for real fix tomorrow. Housesitter says they all went out at once, but ISP says our router is pingable. Maybe it is old and tired - can only get it up every now and again.

Perhaps today's viagra spammer could be of some assistance?

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8, Yes, the bloodwork is confusing.   One has to be eating a sufficient amount of gluten (10 grams/day, about 5-6 slices of bread) in order for the antibody level to get high enough to be measured in the bloodstream.  If insufficient amounts of gluten are eaten, the the antibodies stay in the small intestines, hence the statement "tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet."  The bloodwork reflects anemia.  People with anemia can have false negatives on tTg IgA tests because anemia interferes with antibody production.  Diabetes and Thiamine deficiency are other conditions that may result in false negatives.  Anemias, B12 deficiency, iron deficiency, Thiamine deficiency and gastritis are common in undiagnosed Celiac disease.    The DGP IgG antibody test should be given because your daughter is so young.  Many young people test positive on DGP IgG because their immune systems are not mature and don't produce IgA antibodies yet.  Your daughter has several alleles (genes for Celiac disease).   Your daughter needs to be checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Iron (ferritin) B12, Vitamin D, Thiamine and Vitamin A should be checked.   Were any biopsies taken during the endoscopy? Keep us posted on your progress.  
    • knitty kitty
      The intestinal tract can be as long as twenty-two feet long, so intestinal damage may be out of the reach of endoscopy tools.  Some people have had more success with capsule endoscopy, but this method cannot take biopsies.

      @Jack Common, It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/ For clarification, the weight of your slice of bread is not equal to the amount of gluten in it.   Gluten helps form those big holes in breads, so breads like thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads contain more gluten than cakes and cookies.

      Sorry about that link.  It was meant for a different post.   Do consider taking high dose Vitamin D in order to get your level up to around 80 nm/l quickly.   This is the level where Vitamin D can properly work like a hormone and can improve the immune system and lower inflammation.  It makes a big difference.   I took high dose Vitamin D and really improved quickly.  I ate Vitamin D supplements throughout the day like m&ms.  My body craved them.  Very strange, I know, but it worked.   Before you have surgery, you really need to improve your vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins A and D, Vitamin C and Niacin are extremely important to skin health and repair.  Without these, the body does not repair itself neatly.  I've got a scar worthy of a horror movie.  My doctors were clueless about nutritional deficiencies. A sublingual Vitamin B12 supplement will work better for boosting levels.  Tablets or liquid drops in the mouth are easily absorbed directly into the blood stream.   Do bear in mind that about half of Celiac people react to the protein in dairy, Casein, the same as they react to gluten because segments of the protein in Casein resembles segments of the protein Gluten.  Some people lose the ability to produce lactase, the enzyme that digests Lactose, the sugar in dairy, as they age.  Others lose the ability to produce lactase because the intestinal Villi become damaged during the autoimmune response against gluten, and damaged chili can't produce lactase.   Do try Benfotiamine.  It has been shown to improve gastrointestinal health and neuropathy. Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.
