I'm still not scared! I run fast...... Besides, who says Yeti's are dangerous anyways?

Sarah, you need to tell me the evildoer's name. I'm gonna do a voodoo hex! Make his penis fall off. Or just become horribly diseased.

Question. I have (rather abundant) cleavage (snicker) so does that mean that I AM or AM NOT under the rule of the cleavage queen? Is she called that because she has the power to endow cleavage? (Or remove it?) eek

Is there a metric equivalent for cubits? Is a cubit already metric? Is it, in fact, a unti of measurement at all?

A Cubit is actually a unit of measurement. According to wikipedia, The cubit is based on measuring by comparing

Hi All Sillies!

It is only 10 and it is already hotter than hell. I think this is the last hot day though. I hear rain is coming.

We are doing our mortgage appointment this morning to see how much we can get approved for in a loan. Very stressful. I cannot be happier when this is over.

Where is our Tom.....I miss him!!!

It seems like it's just random enough to be voted on as the official measurement of psilliville.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Nothing we do will ever match! It's perfect!

Relax. Ample cleavage = ample saggage. Be happy with what you've got.

:lol: Well, our yeti is a love. And tolerant? Gad...... . the things we've put him through.. . ....

Howevah, word was yesterday that he may have gotten involved with a chupacabra. . .... things may be a'changing with his personality.

I miss him!

And I miss Patoughmghmn! Actually, I'm concerned about that one. Hope he's managing okay.... . . . .. :(:unsure:

Sarah, you need to tell me the evildoer's name. I'm gonna do a voodoo hex! Make his penis fall off. Or just become horribly diseased.

Penises (er....excuse me...penii) falling off....... . . :blink::lol:

Perhaps another way to measure a cubit? Less variation with this....appendage....than with forearms?

No, phorget it.... . . . .methinks there is great variation.... .. ..... :lol:

I would also like some cleavage. Push-up bras help, but I just don't get the real deal. I'd have to have them pushed up to me mouth, and well, there ain't enough there to get remotely close...... <_<

Ryan! Nacho cheese! :lol:

Whenever I think of nachos (or when I make them), I ALWAYS think of our Sarah and the chip-up-her-nose introduction. :lol: Happier, happier times....... . ...I MISS SARAH IN SILLYVILLE!! :wub::(:angry:

Here's a bit of silliness that occurred today. I finally decided to bite the bullet and go to the doctor. My dad and the boys have all caught this cold from me and are already getting better, while I'm still hacking up a lung. Turns out I have bronchitis, borderline pneumonia-- that's not the silly part. (Duh.) My immune system is probably in the toilet right now, and my blood pressure skyrocketed back into danger territory. Not too surprising, hopefully it'll even back out soon... Anyway, the silly part...

My doctor has had the same nurse for quite awhile now-- a tall, blonde girl named Jade, very sweet, she's my buddy. But my doctor also always has PAs doing internships, nurses and EMTs doing workshops, all that kind of stuff, so there's often new people in and out.

Well, I'm sitting in the waiting room today, and the door opens, but it wasn't Jade who called my name. No, indeed, instead it was freaking Matthew McConaughey's clean-cut brother! I'm not sh!tting you, you guys, this dude was a total doppelganger, same voice and drawl, and everything! I thought I was gonna have a heart attack.

There I am, schlumped over in a chair, wearing my ratty old patchwork overalls, tank top underneath, and sandals. Eyes bleary, hacking up phlegm and trying not to pee myself every time I cough. He calls my name, and I have to stop myself from gesturing vaguely toward my face, saying, "Moi?" Hehe...

He took my vitals, and when he got to my pulse, he said, very concernedly, that it was really fast. I couldn't help it. A hoarse little snicker popped out before I could stop it. Oh well.

I just had to tell you guys about it. He was HOT.

They should do a re-check with a slatternly nurse, just to see if it's him, or you.

Oh my GAWD Sarah- that ROCKS!!!!!!!!! Not only are you looking at other men, but you're looking at YUMMY other men! I'm just glad he wasn't your ob/gyn or proctologist ;)

Sarah . . . so good to hear from you . . . and you deserve a bit of eye-candy if anyone does. Hope they gave you some good drugs for yer bronchitis . . . and that coughing/peeing thing only gets worse as you get older. They say bowling kegling is good for that though!!

You sound better. :)

Not only are you looking at other men, but you're looking at YUMMY other men! I'm just glad he wasn't your ob/gyn or proctologist ;)

Ohhh! Au contraire............. . . .....I think having a clean-cut Matthew, speculum in hand, holding cervical office may just make it all bearable! :lol:

OMG--I gotta go in a minute and get dinner but when Matt was born (24 years ago yesterday), the resident on the floor where I was was a guy I went to high school with :o Gawd.....and he didn't look like MM, either <_<

So, we were making small talk about who'd a thunk it while he was checking me out (I wanted to die, I was so embarassed but tried to act like I was cool with it) and he told me that another girl from our school was just down the hall having just had a baby.

Haven't thought about that in years :lol:

Due to Tropical Storm Hanna the beach trip for this weekend has been postponed. After a 3wk period hiatus and unprotected sex.....Jen talked to her 20 yr cousin who had casual sex again last night. Jen was pretty much telling her about her Phloosy behaviour only she used some not so nice words to describe her. SO anyway after Jen spoke to her she asked me to bring down my preg tests. We get stock piles of them from the hospital since all these drug companies send them for the research trials but my hospital does its own test for pregginess so we dont use and the company never wants them back. So I had a bag of them. Turns out she is not preggy...which is good!!!!

The Fun and Craziness never stops around here :o

Hey All my US sillies-- if you are bored tonight, check out the Stand up To Cancer TV program starting at 8, it is being shown on ABC, NBC, and CBS. It is all about cancer treatments and clinical trials and research and stuff. It is a nationwide event. Its been a big conversation at the med center of course but maybe if any one here is interested just to see what its about :)

Hehe, I have to admit, I never did have a problem LOOKING at the "menu." But this one was swoon-worthy. And NICE. And no ring. Can't help but be uplifted there...

Sigh... I was thinking last night, how my feelings have evolved over the past three weeks. At first I was just so horribly shocked and wounded, I kept thinking, "I can't do this, I'll never be able to get through this." And that was just looking at the fact that I would be apart from him.

I had NO IDEA how much worse it was going to get... The selfish cruelty, the heartlessness... that now finally, in an odd way, the worse he gets, the more I'm able to be glad I'm away from him. It would have come out one way or another eventually, I guess.

I keep thinking about an email Lisa (H) sent me- and I promise I'm going to write back- but... maybe this can be a fresh start for me, and the boys, too.

It's hard, and I'm mourning a lot of things right now, but...... despite being sick as a dog, this has been a decent day. :)

BTW, if I disappear for awhile, it's just Hanna. The rain kills the internet connection here. My parents have that Wild Blue satellite, and it stinks.

      For years, I have dealt with various gluten related symptoms like stomach pains, bloating, IBS-C "ish" digestive issues, low iron, low Vit D, joint pains, brain fog, and more. I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac...

      Does Kroger Offer Affordable Gluten-Free Options?

      Kroeger has quite a few Gluten free items. Right now they are redoing my Kroeger store and are adding everything into the regular sections. Since this was done some new ones have been added. Publix and Ingles also have great selections. I actually shop Walmart and Food City to since prices on some items vary from store to store.

      Neurologic symptoms - Muscle Twitching and Hand Tremors

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense.

I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers.

      I’m so sorry you’re going through this—it sounds like you’ve been on a really challenging journey with your health. Your symptoms (stomach pains, bloating, low iron, joint pain, brain fog, etc.) do sound like they could be related to gluten sensitivity or another condition like non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). It’s interesting that your bloodwork hasn’t shown celiac markers, but the lymphocytosis in your duodenum could still point to some kind of immune response or irritation, even if it’s not classic celiac disease. The fact that your symptoms improved when you went gluten-free but returned when you reintroduced gluten (especially with the donut incident) is a pretty strong clue that gluten might be a trigger for you. It’s also worth noting that symptoms can be inconsistent, especially if your body is still healing or if there are other factors at play, like stress, cross-contamination, or other food intolerances. Do you have more info about your blood test results? Did they do a total IGA test as well?

I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac red flags in bloodwork IGA tests. WIll be following up soon with GI Dr, but so far, my symptoms are intermittent. I go back and forth with gluten-free diet (especially this past year.... did two tests where the stomach pains I had went away without gluten in diet. HOWEVER, I added it back a third time and I didn't get the pains)   Anyway, I am so confused and scared to eat anything now because I recently had a few bites of a yeasty donut and I immediately got so sick. Any thoughts??

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got annual CMP screenings as part of my benefits. The liver enzymes were continually elevated and creeping up every year, though they were never super high. My primary care doc had no clue. I got really worried as your liver is pretty important. I finally made an appointment with a GI doc myself and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive. That was in about 1996. After going on a gluten-free diet for three months the liver enzymes were back in normal range. Another lab that had gotten out of whack that has not returned to normal is albumin/total protein which are always a little on the low side. I don't know what that's about, if it's related to the liver or something else like leaky gut syndrome. But my doctors don't seem to be worried about it. One thing to realize is that celiac disease can onset at any stage of life. There is a genetic component but there is also an epigenetic component. That is, the genetic component is not deterministic. It only provides the potential. There needs also to be some health or environmental stressor to activate the latent gene potential. About 40% of the population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually do.
