:unsure: . . . remind me nevah to make Jess mad . . . :ph34r:

How bad could it be? Patti and I had to do the first part, and poor, sweet Bevvie the second.

I think he'll jump at the chance to be more connected with his female friends through shared experiences.

It has been pouring hard all afternoon--I napped on the couch with my kitty, Kitty put his heads in my hands and we slept all afternoon.

Then Jen called me and asked if I wanted to run to Starbucks with her and Becky. So we did that.

I have to go to Wegmans but the traffic is nasty right now so we will go later.

ah, sounds like a great rainy afternoon. happy for ya ;)

Aw, Bev..... :( I'm so sorry to hear about all this sh!tty PICC stuff......you are a brave, ever-cheerful girl......I SOOOOO admire you!

Don't we all wish that it was Soooozie's ex Heinousman going through all this horrid medical intervention??? :angry:

we sure do :ph34r: I want to order the voodoo doll........ B)

Yah!! I say we pin him down and take out his uterus before inserting a PICC line - preferably through his groin, with a couple false starts.

:lol::lol:

I'm a firm believer in castration.....

for him YES :ph34r:

He's not the only guy we know that could use a little "medical intervention". <_<

Oohhh!!!! I got me a doozie of me own. A week ago there was something on the cafeteria floor. One foot went sliding out from under me and on my way down, my arm whacked a table. (Did i mention I hate cafeteria duty? :angry: ) It's already gone thru a myriad of color changes. Hey!........I got me own built in kaleidescope! :P !

Interesting assortment of pharting techniques........earlier there was the repressed cheek pinching.........then the "really wish I COULD phart" syndrome........and lastly, the ever popular, bend over and let 'er rip!, accompanied by the sneaky laughing phart, to the tune of "Those Who Phart Together, Stay Together" ;)

BTW....this reminds me........I have a personality phart quiz......must go dig it up.......be back later :D

He's very proud :rolleyes: yep men tend to do this...........esp while your laid up.........oye.

so now whoes gona do the dishes....the bigger question? :D

Jestgar Rising Star

Yeah, who is gonna do the dishes :unsure:

I can do them in stages, 5 minutes at a time.

My instructions tell me I can drive as soon as I'm off the narcotics, which I am. Might be a different story if I had a stick (all that lifting of the feet!) but an automatic's easy.

jerseyangel Proficient

A quick good mornin' --gonna be oot and aboot (for my Canadian friends :P ) most of the day.

Jess--Gawd, that roomie is a real pip, isn't he? Sorry bout his finger, though....that couldn't have been pleasant for him. Nice way to get outta doing dishes :lol:

You poor thing, you shoulda been resting last night :(

Bevvie--how's the purple PICC this morning? Hope you slept well :)

Have a good Saturday everyone! :D

Good Morning, Sillies!

Well, I was indeed scared last night...... . . . . ..we have quite a number of bored, angry, confused spirits in this city, appearing from time to time in hotel bedrooms, stairways, hallways, kitchens and attics. The most unsettling, for me, are the auditory experiences - - hearing voices and whispering, footsteps, dragging noises on the floorboards..... . .. .

Noticed Jack a few times, staring wide-eyed at our tour guide :unsure::blink: , moving uncomfortably from foot to foot.......but surprisingly, he slept very well.

On top of it all, we learned a great deal of history of Ottawa.

Have any of you Sillies ever seen or heard a ghost? I was going to start a thread on it.... .. . I have heard one, for certain....... . . . . ...:scaredlittleface:

You guys are KILLING me. On the bright side my new PICC is a gorgeous, amethyst purple :D

Bev! Purple is the coloUr of royalty! It denotes luxury, wealth and sophistication - - very feminine and romantic. This is all you!! :):)

I go back tomorrow for a dressing change- boy are they gonna feel bad when they see the bruise. OMG- could Emily and I be sharing symbolic bruises. Mine could be face of the chupacabra!!!!!

Gahh! Bev, do keep us posted.....what's it shaping up like today? Brack Obama's face? A li'l goat? :lol:

Well, just got back from a fun venture to the urgent care clinic. Roomie sliced the crap outta his finger while doing dishes. 7 stitches. He's very proud :rolleyes:

Oh, crap. Bad timing, Jess! Well.... . .hopefully he'll get a nice bruise over it all for you to watch and interpret.... . .. . . :rolleyes:

      Looked this up.   Yes, forgiveness and bearing with people is people is vital.  
    • cristiana
      I must admit I've been on both sides.  Before my diagnosis, and in my ignorance, I thought all the special diets we see around us today were unnecessary and people were making a big fuss over nothing.  There is a shop in the small town where I live that sells organic and gluten free food and I used to people walking in and buying things and thought they were being a bit ridiculous spending extra money on what I thought was a fad.  Yet since my diagnosis that shop has been a real lifesaver.  I guess It is hard for people to see the necessity of all this extra effort if they haven't experienced celiac disease either themselves, or in someone they love.  That said, honestly, I have wondered at times if I would have been as understanding had my husband been diagnosed with coeliac disease instead of me. He has been great.  It must be incredibly difficult if your close friends and family aren't supporting you in this way. Following a gluten-free diet can involve a lot of extra hassle and can be expensive, but I do find that the world is so full of people struggling with autoimmune illnesses now, allergies and intolerances, that people are definitely becoming more attuned to things.   Word is getting out there. In 2022 a long-running popular TV series in the UK, Doc Martin, ended with a final case: a patient being diagnosed with coeliac disease.  I don't know if anyone saw it but I was so heartened by that episode, that celiac disease was given centre stage for the last ever programme. The patient in question had been suffering from a horrible rash which turned out to be dermatitis herpetiformis. He also had anemia, felt faint and was plain exhausted.  It would have been good education to anyone watching who didn't know about the disease and they would have been left in no doubt about its seriousness and the need to follow a strict gluten-free diet.  I thought to myself as it ended, well, now, that's another piece in our campaign to make coeliac disease better understood!

      I understand your frustration about socializing while having celiac disease. I also have allergies to nuts, dairy, all forms of gluten including oats, strawberries and MSG. I get anxiety while grocery shopping and really take my time to read all labels. I always carry a magnifying glass with me wherever I go to read labels. Many products are labelled Gluten Free but contain Oats, and apparently this is becoming more common. I almost bought some gluten free flour but read that it contained oats. A certain percentage of Celiacs have this complication. I can’t help feeling offended and excluded when others act like I am being “high maintenance”. I am becoming better at being an advocate for myself.  I have had diverticulitis 3 times and each time hospitalized-once, the attending nurse didn’t know what celiac means-she had to research...  If others around me make comments I try to enlighten them, those who don’t get it are not my friends anymore. Be very careful about cross-contamination. I was sick recently for 10 days after a meal was contaminated while I was on holiday. If servers say they have gluten free buns or bread, ask if they use a toaster specifically reserved for gluten-free, or don’t chance it. On a positive note, I didn’t find out I had Celiac Disease until I was 60. Eating a gluten free diet means no more terrible headaches, hives, rashes, intestinal bloating and irregularity, Gastro Intestinal Reflux….when I follow a strict diet and mostly always eat at home, I feel great! I also weeded out “friends” who weren’t worth being around.
