  • Just a quick note…

    …before I toddle off to bed.

    For BluePaNDoRa,
    in answer to your questions, I can’t suggest any specific
    supplements.  If acidophilus isn’t knocking out the systemic
    yeast, you might try bifidus or one of the combos of friendly
    bacteria. 

    There’s no yeast in my bread recipes.  They’re quick breads made
    with soda and baking powder as leavening.  But you probably know
    that yeast is everywhere, spores floating in the air all the
    time.  Our best defense against them is to be an inhospitable
    environment for it.  Yeast eats sugar and nests in our guts in
    globs of gluten. 

    I starved my parasitic colony out with three weeks of very low-carb
    foods, virtually no sugars, no “root” vegies such as beets, carrots and
    potatoes, no grain, just the complex carbs in green vegies, and lots of
    fresh yogurt for the bacteria.  It wasn’t fun, but it was
    effective.  Now I can get away with eating some grain and fruit,
    but I keep eating the yogurt, too.  Chocolate used to be my
    favorite food.  Now yogurt is.


    We got a lot of new snow here overnight, enough that Doug needed to
    shovel the roof today.  That came with a little warming trend
    after a night when the temp got down around zero Fahrenheit.  My
    feet have been cold all day and I’ve had muscle spasms in legs and
    back.  I  haven’t gotten any physical work done since I got
    my worktable cleared off last week, but I’ve been using the table to
    spread my Tarot cards for readings.  That’s work, of a sort, I
    suppose.  Doesn’t feel like work, though.  With the
    altered-state sounds in my headphones it’s like taking a vacation
    inside my head.  Still, same as when I go on a geographic journey,
    I’m tired when I get back.


    I still don’t know if the bear-baiting law passed or not.  That
    was the only measure on the ballot this time that I had very strong
    feelings about.  I suppose tomorrow I’ll track down some election
    returns.


    Nitey-night.

  • Hi and nice to meet you!

    My aunt lives in Alaska, and it is wonderful up there.  One of the most beautiful places ever!

  • Thanks :)   I appreciate it. I’ll definitely try the bifidus, and look through the cookbook.

     

  • Oh! I have friends who are doing that sort of diet. It was very interesting for them to explain what they were up to while I gnawed on my slice of French bread. ROFL. Oh dear. I sort of dropped it onto my plate after I understood the benefits of what they were doing.

    Anyway. I’m just dropping into the middle of a conversation. Eek. *g*

  • hi, I dont know quite how i came about your xanga,, but I have found myself completely immersed for about the past 24 hours albeit a 4 hour nap…Your life is mesmerizing and I am in awe of all of the adventures that have come your way!! But for now I must go,, until next time, be safe

  • I guess you heard by now, the bears lost.  As did the environment, the poor people, ANWR, the truth, etc. . . .

    My fibro-forgetter is working great.  I forgot my phone; forgot to see Mike; forgot to water the cats–I think there was something else, I forgot what I forgot.

    Did a short but sweet blog.

    Later.

  • IMPORTANT–did the past life reading, posted it privately on my site.

    Watered the cats, brought my stuff for my phone calls–BRK and MArie C..  Will get soda at Freds, some for all of us.

    Would probably skip the meeting, except for 1)literature and 2) my horoscope said to be with friends tonight.

    Oh, and check should be payable to

  • How much new snow?

  • I’m happy to meet you. Have you ever noticed that people come into your lives just when you need them most? I look foward to what you have to teach me.
