As we settle into the nighttime of despair, fret not, for the Sun will rise again!!
Good morning everyone.
Dog is on vacation...
Raven is headed to Italy...
Carolinamom is firing up her Grass Hog...
And the Dems continue to undermine this great country. The confrontation between Capitol Hill and the White House over the Iraq War timetable seems imminent.
Well hello Mr. Lysie. I just got in & was reading the thread & note your Mrs. had sore eyes & was going to call it a night.
I dont think I have ever seen you post here but hope you know we all think the world of your honey.
Oh Jemian, I do so hope that the antibiotics will be the answer for you. You do know your FRiends here are lifting you up to the Master for healing & for strength & for peace through all of this.
We love you & of course wish we could give you some REAL hugs rather than the cyber hugs offered
In any event: it’s time for me to hang up the ‘puter for the day. Sending another prayer for you during nighty-nite time. God Keep you!
OH -— HI! I was just hanging up and see you ...
Here’s my LAST post of the night
(((DollyCali)))
(((Jemian)))
returned FReepmail. going to sleep soon . Only had 3 hours last night & big/long day tomorrow
Sweet dreams
BTW, when I say last post, normally that means I will refresh a couple more times before I am actually prone, It doesn’t help the computer is in same room as I sleep
you missed your GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY to give the age old cliche..
take two aspirins & call me in the morning.
Phys ... could be
Physician
Physicist
Physiologist
psycho (yes, letters a little off)
Thanks. I’m not freaked out at the moment, but I am a bit on the introspective side. LOL! I posed my question to the doc here and she said it is an interesting theory. I told her that was a remarkable non-answer and we both laughed.
Oh well. I’ll find out next Tuesday. Patience NOW!
I’m reading through your macrobiotic diet. One theory I’ve heard somewhere is that cancers feed off proteins. Well, I may now be restricting my diet to just complex carbs found in veggies. I will NOT be adding simple carbs back in until I hit my ideal weight.
FYI, my current target is 54 kilos. As I get close I’ll re-evaluate to see if that is reasonable. Currently my rate of weight loss is 1 kilo a week and that is a good rate.
It has been quite a few years since I bought roses from J&P. Actually since I lived in NC & was in Rose Society there.
My the prices have jumped
Lots of gorgeous ones, aren’t there?
I am very familiar with the macrobiotic diet. There are two types. The regular & the “healing”(must more strict). I work with a cancer support group that is VERY big in natural supplementation
Basically you eliminate refined sugar, refined flour, acids, meat/meat products from your diet. NO soft drinks or bottled/canned juices. Fruit too is minimal (sugar).
Cancer feeds off sugar & off acid. The reason for eliminating meat is to take pressure off the digestive system so the BTUs aren’t wasted on digestion & are instead preserved for the immune system.
The diet isn’t a healer but is a facilitator so that the body can kick in naturally with minimal stress & let the immune system do it’s thing
This diet is good ANY TIME one is fighting an infection, virus etc.
We have had remarkable success with this program with our participants.
I have already eliminated the simple sugars, and flours from my diet. It is primarily complex carbs and proteins and diet coke. OK. I’ll eliminate diet coke and cut back on the meat proteins. Increase the alkalines? I need to read up on this.
However, I’ll wait to see what the results on Tuesday are. LOL!
What about tea with a synthetic sweetner?
I gotta run. BBL
THe diet is really DOWN on the artifical ANYTHING as I recall.
Tea & coffee are out also IIRC
I have just one link on my profile page but if you google the diet there will be master lists.
The Kushi Institute in Mid Massachusetts is the best place for info or to go for classes (one week sessions available). Dr. Kushi from the orient is considered the father of the modern Macrobiotic diet.
Well if you start in on it, there will be help for your infection if we are lucky & that is the problem.
RE: “Imus Fatigue”, the players weren’t thrilled and dazzled by being in the same room as the “World’s smartest woman”? Did they not realize that this was a chance to have many photos taken with a sitting Senator that could be used in campaign commercials? Did they not realize that ashtrays would be flying once she got back to campaign HQ? Selfish little *itches...</ sarc
As much as I like Tony Snow, Dubya could use somebody like Dana Perino these days.
If Dick Cheney were running next year, this election would be over. He is probably the best I’ve ever seen at smiling while sticking the dagger in. He made mincemeat of Joe Lieberman, who I consider a good man, in their debate in 2000 and absolutely destroyed the Breck Girl 3 years ago.
Dick Cheney is just plain cool. Remember that hat he wore at ihe Inauguration in 2001? I love that guy!
Think she will ORDER him t pull out?
David Broder's written a column questionaing Reid's leadership abilities...saying he's a liability in fact, and should be replaced! Pretty amazing!
I may not be able to post much more as my husband is here and needs the computer.
Jemian, I sure hope you're better soon, and figure out what's going on with you...
