Happy Birthday Dax
My Sweet Dax baby turned 2 yesterday!!! He was a little confused by the holiday! When we woke him up yesterday morning and told him happy Birthday, he gave us this weird look and told us no! At school his teacher told him Happy Birthday and he responded with - "No, Happy Birthday Lani!" He wouldn't even open his present, Lani had to assist him with that too! I'm hoping his party is more successful and that he gets excited about his presents. I'm thinking he may be a little shy and not like all the attention. He had his 2 year check-up today. He weighs 28 pounds and is in the 75th percentile. Dr. Maddox stated that he could possibly 6 feet tall when he grows up! He was a little upset with the shots he saw coming and kept saying - No Band-Aid, No Band-Aid! He was happy to leave the office with his sucker and sticker. He couldn't get out of that office fast enough - He was ready to get to school and see Ms. Price!

Halloween - Wow! A Week Long Event!!!
The next night, we headed to Aunt J's house for soup and pumpkin carving! We had a great time. Dax wasn't that interested in the carving part, but as you can tell, Lani thought it was awesome!
Our Pumpkin! I think it turned out great!
Thursday, Lani and Dax had their class parties and then went trick-or-treating at my office!
Finally, it is Halloween!

Proud Of My Little Guy!!!
I had to change Dax's clothes after supper, because he was definitely covered in chocolate pudding! Before I had a chance to put on new clothes, he decided to take off his diaper (which was dry by the way) walk to the trash can, put it in the trash can, he walked into the bathroom sat on his little potty and actually used the potty! I was amazed!!! This is the first time he has shown interest at home with the potty! We of course got all excited and rewarded him with a tootsie roll. And guess what what 30 minutes later - Off the diaper came and he headed back to the potty and used it again! So where's Jarod - At the store - buying underwear. We were lucky with Lani - as soon as she showed an interest, we put her in p*antie*s and at 21 months, she was potty trained. Well, all I have at my house right are little girl p*antie*s and Jarod would actually die if I tried to put them on him! Yay for Dax -I'm hoping potty training goes as easy the second time around!!!!

Where Did That Come From?
-Lani's Awana Bible verse this week was "God created the Heavens and The Earth." Genesis 1:1
Lani's version - "God Created the Holy Word." This is what she repeated after me, every time we tried to practice.
-Sometime in October, "Where The Wild Things Are" -the movie- is suppose to come out. Every time the commercial is on TV, Lani says "Look Mommy, The Wild Rumpus."
-Row, Row, Row your boat has a few new words too. Row, Row, Row your boat, Gently down the stream, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Like a Butter Dream. Wow! I had no idea these were the words to this song :)
-Lani also has a crazy word for cantaloupe....Puffalope and Buffalo...Don't know how she confuses these words, but if you ever hear her say this, she is definitely wanting some cantaloupe.

~A Big Suprise~
Well, for the second month in a row, my period has been late. I really thought last month that I was pregnant; however, I took two pregnancy test and they were both negative. So this month rolls around and once again - I'm late. I didn't think I was pregnant - there's no way that could happen!!! Well I had a pregnancy test left over from last month, so out of the blue, I thought I would take it. Jarod had no idea that I was upstairs doing this by the way - I had not even mentioned to him that I was late. We got a POSITIVE Result very quickly. So yes, I am pregnant with baby #3! It was a complete surprise, but a good surprise!!! I go to the doctor October 14Th! I'm obviously not very far along, but I couldn't keep this a secret!!!!

"Colosal" takes advantage of the declining advantage of a fun premiere; One seems to have been made for satirical treatment, but the characters have a semi-serious (or unpleasant) well equipped for ballast. Anne Hathaway's high billing transaction will make Vigalondo a commercial hope that makes it more fun abroad.

In almost all divorces and custody disputes, courts will try to ensure that children remain a part of both parent's lives. However, some parents, still bitter at their ex, will do everything possible to make their children hate their other parent too. This is known as parental alienation syndrome, and it can lead to one parent having no relationship with their children.
Having an attorney as a batting coach when life throws a curve
It can be extremely difficult to prepare for every possible change in life. In some cases, when life throws you a curveball, a swing and a miss might be a minor setback, but it could also prepare you for the next attempt. However, in stressful situations where the stakes are high, being ready for anything thrown your way could be significantly more challenging.

What not to do when your central heating goes out (aka Marriage Advice)
Yesterday our heater went out for cigarettes and never came back. In case my friends who live where it's warmer (like Australia) have missed it, here in much of the US we're a little beyond "extra sweater" weather. I'd say we've moved into three pairs of socks, long johns, and ski mask temps.
So my dearest husband valiantly drove to Wal-mart to purchase one of those really good ceramic space heaters like I've been threatening to purchase since the first cold snap. Before he left, I showed it to him online, explaining why it was the best one for our purposes. In passing I pointed out a space heater we didn't want--one that is reported to be noisy and doesn't put out much heat and burns out with heavy use.
I thought I heard him agree, but perhaps I mistook his clearing his throat for the words, "You're right" (They sound so much alike, you know). Just before he left he said that he thought maybe we should get two smaller heaters instead. No, I said, we want (the one I showed him). He once again cleared his throat in an affirmative manner.
While he was gone, I finished laundry and started on dinner, imagining the large ceramic heater I'd seen in the ad sitting in the corner of my livingroom warming my children and pets as they frolicked on the livingroom throw rug. (Children always frolic in fantasies, didn't you know that?)
Here's where the what not to do comes into play:
Gary returned an hour and a half later (we're thirty minutes from everywhere here) with his arms full of space heaters. Not one heater--two-and neither of them what I wanted. Worst of all, one of them was the not-recommended model I'd pointed out.
What not to do: When your beloved drives in an unheated car in sub-zero wind chill temperatures thirty minutes to buy something to keep you comfortable while he's at work (which is yet another long drive in the same car) DO NOT let the first words out of your mouth be "But that's the wrong one!"
And when he explains that the heater that you wanted wasn't there, DO NOT offer up, "But that one is one I told you not to buy . . . " and host of other criticisms.
Trust me, unless you're married to a much nicer guy than I am (and that's hard to believe) the resulting scene won't be pretty. After twenty-plus years of marriage you'd think I'd know better.
In my defense, I was right about the one I didn't want. It works okay, as long as you don't mind the fact that it sounds like a car with a hole in its muffler and in need of a tune up and a probably a new set of brakes, and an oil change. This one will go back to Walmart as soon as I can get it there (I wonder if Returns accepts items that have been flung at them from forty miles away?).
Meanwhile, though sheepish and apologetic. we're warm, which is the main thing. But this experience has been a good reminder. I don't do cold well at all (Gary would chime in here in definite agreement. Hush Gary this is my blog. Go get your own). Gary's known the heater had a problem for a few days, but assumed that it would wait until he could get to it when he's off on Sunday (clearly not one of his better assumptions). Procrastination can clearly be costly. On the other hand, his fish-wife-spouse could stand to remember how hard he's trying to provide for us and take care of us so I can stay home for these all important last couple of years of homeschooling. So if there was any take-away point in this blog post (I so rarely have one), I suppose it would be to remember each other's limits when the heat is on (or off as the case may be).

It's always fun to read about these giant molehills and to recognize acceleration--in the wrong direction. Hindsight is wonderfuly clear. And painful. Do you think that if we (like 37,394 other people) wrote a book of "How Not to Proceed in Certain Circumstances in Marriage"--because we've been there/done that we could cause a stir on Wall Street or on the Best Sellers list? No? Well, it was just a thought. How many of us (all you lurkers and friends, fess up now) have had nearly identical experiences to our friend Mary and spouse Gary. (We're all nodding our heads, Mary.) Sorry for the misery of no central heat and "the wrong heater being brought home" dilemma. Being cold is a misery I shudder over--quite literally. Hope you and Gary snuggled very close together after the dust settled . . . you know . . . so you could get warm and all. You know... ;-} And I seriously hope fixing the central heater isn't a major cost/undertaking. Missouri is dealing with some deathly cold temps/conditions. I know my daughter and family are having a BAD time with sub-freezing weather. Brrrrrrrrrrrrr. Prayers for you!

I am so glad this is one piece of advice I can laugh with but know I will NEVER have to use, as I don't do Winter, so there is no way I am ever going to contemplate Extreme Wintering.
However, there are some gems there!

From the post, it sounds to me that you get it. :-)
Note to self : Mary does not do cold very well...

My hopes for warmth & coziness go out to you. I have shuddered in contemplation of what it would mean here to have no heat - as thousands of Canadians not far from me have experienced within the last few weeks. It ain't pretty.
Crossing fingers, I have avoided the outages so far.
It's nice that you have someone to cuddle up with, or at least a choice of mutts - they make good bed warmers!
- Mary Paddock said...
Thanks everybody! PW--I sometimes suspect I could fill a book with what not to do experiences. :)
Ray--That would be exactly what I'd make them do--if we had wood heat and we're not quite to the burning a fire in the middle of the livingroom floor stage yet.
Jeanie--Lucky you. :)
Debby--Somehow I bet you'd handle it better.
Scotty-I did learn an important lesson this time around.
Geoff--Thanks!We're okay. :)

This post is to update you on what has happened since the budget meeting, KSD's responses to date, and to what we hope to find out in the future. The District responded to our questions in a timely and professional manner for most of the items and asked to meet with Martin Bennet. They responded to our first set of questions but this spawned other questions. We we now seek access to online systems to get the answers we seek about the 1 to 1 learning (free iPad) program. We are also engaging the Interim Superintendent about our proposal of collapsing the Technology and Maintenance Funds into the General Fund.
Answered Items
They will continue to provide free health, dental and vision insurance to individual employees working over 30 hours a week. This covers the individual employee but not his or her family members. Employees can purchase coverage for family members. We estimate that he cost of all these benefits for the 660 employees is roughly $1 million a year. This benefit is not typically enjoyed by private sector taxpayers.
The District is not only offering free tuition for children of non-resident employees but now also the children of Special School District employees who work on assignment in Kirkwood Schools. Several of these workers are just part-time. This increases the number of free-tuition students to 152. Assuming a cost of $12,000 per student per year, the cost to taxpayers is $1,824,000 a year. To those of you who pay or have paid private school tuition, let that sink in.
The district has no stated plans to open up a costly and unnecessary free taxpayer-supported pre-kindergarten. This is a great relief. This is something most all KSD parents currently pay for on their own. Taxpayer funded pre-school is a constant threat to taxpayers and fiscal responsibility from teachers unions and bureaucrats who want to expand government by giving free child-care through public schools. While there is evidence that this would benefit underprivileged children, the educational benefits of children attending pre-kindgergarten dissipate by the third grade for other children.
The District has no plans to build any buildings as of June 2017.
Unanswered Items
The district has changed the 1 to 1 Technology (free iPads for all students) survey to determine the actual number of lessons that the devices are used for lessons. They have removed the ability to realistically determine how often and in how many lessons the devices are actually used. We have asked them to provide access to the District's computerized lesson creation and storage software to determine this information. We are also asking them to separate out the costs of the 1 to 1 technology that is used in instruction from the IT infrastructure that cannot be cut or lowered. That was a new request. Our perspective is that if the spending does not support lessons then the technology is of little educational value and the money should not be spent.
We have a meeting with the Interim Superintendent at which we will hopefully receive answers to the new set of questions and discuss combining the Technology and Maintenance funds into the General Fund. This, we believe, will eliminate the wasteful spending in the 1 to 1 technology program and potentially avoid future tax increases. Since the Maintenance and Technology Funds are locked up for specific uses the board cannot relieve budgetary pressures in other areas. The Funds, furthermore, exacerbate waste since they waste the money on such things as giving iPads to Kindergartners. They either spend it or it just sits in an account not being able to be more wisely spent elsewhere.
To do this means that the District would have to get a Board approval. They could then get a legal waiver from the State of Missouri or be forced to put the issue on a ballot. Tax Fairly would obviously support this Ballot Initiative.

Bye Bye Bye ....
Add "cost of having a junk hauling company remove the layout from the basement and haul it off" to the list of things that cost more with a large layout. Less than an hour after they arrived what had started life as my "dream layout" looked like this:
I am still rather depressed about the whole thing, so I'm going to stop here and say this hereby closes the book on what will be from now on referred to as "the last layout."
6 comments:
It does give one pause to think.ReplyDelete
I just wanted to chime in, as a long time lurker on your blog, that I REALLY appreciate all the work you've put in to document your time in the hobby. I know the effort it takes to post regularly, take pictures, and so on. It can be quite a headache! And now, with no layout, perhaps even harder to make these posts.ReplyDelete
Thank you for being so generous with your time, and sharing your journey with us. I look forward to the future 'last layout'!
PS: I agree with Trevor. My current layout is 8 feet long, has one turnout, and can occupy a pair of operators for about an hour, in real time. It has allowed me to stretch my skills, practice all sorts of scenery techniques, and experiment with full operations (all the bells and whistles...literally!)
I sense that seeing a model railroad cut up and disappearing down the street may be equivalent to a sailboat doing the same (as I've done that) but savour the pride, joy and achievement and then get on it and build a new one, one that you like.
Hey is that a backdrop I see? :)ReplyDelete
I have never been one to shy away from starting a layout all over when the spirit moves me. But I feel your pain. As my Aquia Line is nearly completion after nearly 10 years of on and off again work, I am thinking about what is next. Lots of ideas flow through my head,. But as I go into the layout room and look around, I realize, gosh it sure is going to be hard to tear this one out.
I think it is best to anticipate what is next than to dwell on what was. Take the lessons learned and move forward.
I am very glad I got to see your layout in person Marty. I am sorry to see it go, but I am ecited to hear about your new plans. Keep blogging!ReplyDelete

Dax Johnson Biography
Dax Johnson, solo pianist/composer and inventor, has been wowing audiences in the solo piano world for the last 10 years. He has sold thousands of records and developed a devout following throughout the western United States. He is known as a neo classical composer, inventor, and performer. Now embarking on a new journey, Dax Johnson is turning his attention to another musical arena- that of a singer- songwriter. In the early 90's, Dax took his music to the streets - literally. Rolling his piano out of the back of his van and setting up shop on the street corners of Spokane, Washington, Dax established his own venue to share his music with a wide audience, and made his living on tips alone. The street musician was eventually invited to make appearances at bookstores and coffee houses, leading to concert performances in many areas of the Western states, and the release of two solo piano CDs.

Marion Jones talks about prison and family
Prison life was not easy, but Jones says the hardest part was being away from her family, particularly her sons, who were toddlers at the time of her imprisonment.
Piers Morgan
"What was the single worst moment for you of the whole thing when you look back?"
Marion Jones
"The single worst moment was sitting in solitary confinement on my boys' birthdays and not getting a chance to talk to them or hold them or hug them and knowing—people might be surprised by that. It wasn't having to give back my medals, it wasn't the scandal; it wasn't all that. It was not—it was, I think, disappointing the ones that loved me and cared for me and supported me and cheered me on, knowing that I hurt them. That to me is the single—and it's what I deal with everyday, that doesn't go away and I…"
Piers Morgan
"How have you dealt with that? I mean, I've got four kids and I can't even imagine how you, as a mother, confronts such a thing. Your two kids were pretty young at that time right?"
Marion Jones
"Yeah, one was turning one and one was turning four."
Piers Morgan
"Right, so too young to really understand so I mean even now, are they aware of what happened to you?"
Marion Jones
"No, they're not aware. I mean we've been pretty open with my oldest, who is eight years old and sharing with him certain things. But they have—they don't really understand. We plan to certainly be—when we feel like they're ready—share certain things with them and share the story with them but in my household, we teach our kids that we all make mistakes like mommy makes mistakes and I'm not an exception. But it's what you do after the mistake; do you try and cover it up? I made the unfortunate choice to try and cover it up and I made things a lot worse. So do you cover it up and get mom and dad really upset with you or do you come and tell us what you did, we deal with it and we move on. So when I talk with young people now, that's what I tell them; "hey ok, you're going to make mistakes, be prepared. But do the right thing after."
At the end of her trial in 2008, Jones and her attorneys had pleaded with Judge Kenneth Karas not to send her to prison and separate her from her sons. But the judge imposed the sentence, saying that athletes serve as role models to children around the world and letting Jones off easily would have sent all the wrong messages.

It's been awhile since I've posted anything on here. I thought it was due for an update. I have been posting more on Facebook and getting ready for my first craft show!
I'll admit when I signed up for the show, I wasn't sure if I'd ever do one again. However, it was a great experience and I LOVED being able to meet my customers! It was great to see how excited purchasing my items made them. Whether it was finding that perfect gift, an item with a fantastic childhood memory or a way to remember a loved one that has passed, each one had a special reason. I love creating that item that someone cherishes! With that said, I do believe I will try and have a booth at another show soon.
I will also continue to refinish furniture and do custom orders. If you have a piece of furniture you'd like refinished, please email me a picture and the dimensions for a quote. Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
I want to Thank my customers. They encourage me to continue and keep painting! I hope to update my Etsy shop soon too with new items.
Any suggestions for items you'd like to see in my shop?

For this project we are going to be filling the pot and planting the seeds. Very good project to tie in science and math with the little ones!
Materials Needed:
Finished Flower Pots from THIS project
Potting Soil
Seeds (I chose tomatos)
First, fill the containers with the potting soil following the directions on the bag. Some brands may call for you to mix the soil with water. Make sure to keep the soil loose and not have it packed in tightly so that the roots will be able to grow.
Have your child help you make a few holes in the soil using their fingers. Be sure to space the holes by the amount suggested on the seed packaging. Next let the child count out the correct amount of seeds and have her place one seed in each hole.
Lightly cover the dirt. Do not push the dirt down, you will need it loose so that the seed will be able to push it's way through it.
Water and place the pots on a sunny windowsill.
That's it! Your done! For older kids, have them talk about what they see happening to the plants every couple of days for a science lesson for them too!
Cost of Project: $3.19
Potting Soil at CVS- $2.99
1 Seed Packet from Walmart- $0.20

Is It Common To Have Night Sweats & Heart Palpitations

I've been following a very strict diet based on this website for the past couple weeks. Staying as far away from sugar and identified trouble foods. However, past 3 nights I started having night sweats. Basically every two hours or so during sleep I'll wake up sweating and sometimes have heart palpitations. Last night I woke up and had to take a deep breath because breathing felt heavier than normal. I still have muscle twitching and slight muscle spasms. Sometimes I feel nauseated and get a headache. I've been working out about 30 minutes a day with strong aerobic exercise. That seems to alleviate symptoms for a while. Today I've felt good but not great.
I'm just wondering if these symptoms are normal for Candida or something I should be extremely worried about. From some reports it looks like this might be related to die-off. But I haven't been officially diagnosed or tested for Candida. I did the spit test and that indicated I probably do have it but I don't put much faith in that. I don't have my first appointment with a homeopathic doctor until next Monday. So, I'm really just trying to get some support on here and see if I'm following the right path. Some days I do feel better. But it's been a mixed bag. Seems like the first 3-4 days of the diet I felt awesome. Now it's hit or miss. I have lost about 20 pounds though in the past 3 weeks. So, that's good.
Anybody have any advice?August 9, 2011 at 3:22 pm #64545

Hey there!
I'm not the most experienced person around here but I've definitely done a lot of reading so I'll try and help you out. So what does your diet look like on a daily basis? Seems like the symptoms you're having could be caused by some die-off but heart palpitations and troubles breathing definitely sound a bit worrisome. Were you having these symptoms to any degree before you started the diet? Also, are you taking any supplements to support your liver? The exercise is a great idea and will assist your body in detoxifying. I'm taking milk thistle right now for my liver and my naturopath recommended that for me. Perhaps your body is a bit overloaded with toxins!
LinnyAugust 9, 2011 at 3:32 pm #64546
Thanks for the quick response. There's usually some variation to my diet but here's an example from yesterday. (I keep a log of what I eat using loseit.com – has a great app for the iphone).
– Avocado
– 2/3 Chopped Onion
– 1 Cup Organic Plain Yogurt
– 1/4 Cup Almond Slivers
– Half of Fresh Tomato
– Half of Cucumber w/o Skin
– Avocado
– Salmon Cooked In Coconut Oil
– Vegetable Juice (V8, I don't usually do this but if I'm out and not around anything I can drink and I don't want water…)
I don't track the amount of water I drink but I drank a lot of water. I always have during this diet. Per all the recommendations. I'm not taking anything to support my liver. I'm really adverse to pills so I am extremely careful about supplements without some good research on the matter. That's one reason why I'm exercising. Thanks again for the quick reply!August 9, 2011 at 3:45 pm #64547

Hello Invisiwill,
I would say that this is very common. I have experienced the same symptoms (for me it hasn't happened for 7 months but during that time, I had them frequently).
Bad nights sleep is very common. The heart palpitations are very normal too. It does not feel good and you think its a heart problem its so bad. It is not a heart problem. It is the candida dying off and its affecting your blood pressure. The breathing problem occurred for me for a few months as well. The spasms is your body reacting to the candida that is in your blood. The headaches and nausea will pass sooner than the other symptoms. There is hope and just hang in there.
P.S. Make sure your environment is completely free of dust and mold. Mold is very toxic and can cause candida. I had your symptoms the most when I lived in a moldy apartment.August 9, 2011 at 4:01 pm #64552
linnyMemberTopics: 3Replies: 7
Just at a glance it seems you could add a lot more bulk to your diet with more veggies. Also, maybe add some eggs for protein, healthy fats, etc?
I wouldn't brush off these symptoms as 'normal', necessarily. The more I think about it, it seems like there could be more to the heart palpitations and night sweats than just die-off… it's essential to get enough vitamins and minerals to avoid electrolyte imbalances, anemia, hypoglycemia, etc. Your muscle spasms/twitching also point to a potential electrolyte imbalance. Have you had any problems with this stuff in the past? My main concern is that you're getting enough nutrition in your diet as it seems you aren't eating a whole lot…
I'm glad you're seeing a homeopathic doc soon. They'll be able to help you out with your symtoms and figure out if there's more going on than just candida. You can also ask them at the time what supplements you could add to your program to help detox your liver and boost your immune system. Are you experiencing any digestive problems at all? Regular BMs are so, so important on this diet to clear the toxins! To give you an idea of supplements, many people on this diet will take psyllium fibre (I can't because it constipates me), but others swear by it because it apparently helps scrub the colon clean of the yeast! I'm personally taking a very potent probiotic, vitamin c 2-3grams daily, zinc, vitamin a, and milk thistle. These are the supplements that my doc put me on, but it should give you an idea of a few things you could be doing to boost your immune system and help your body detox.August 9, 2011 at 4:23 pm #64553
Thanks Raster. It's good to hear I'm not alone on those symptoms.
It's hard somedays to get enough. I get around 1200 calories a day normally. Yesterday was a weak day for me because I was unusually nauseous . But I guess I do need to get better at eating more. I don't seem to have much of an appetite for some reason. I have a juicer here and I do keep a lot of raw veggies. I have two heads of cabbage here I bought yesterday that I've been wanting to juice since I get them. Today I ate a big salad. In between meals sometimes I'll eat some nuts or some of those grape sized tomatoes. They make good snacks. I also generally eat a lot of cucumbers. Celery and almond butter are also on my roster of things I eat. I do have to admit the amount of calories I get is much lower. After workout I'm netting less than 1200 calories. Maybe 900 or 1000. So, nutrient level could be a problem. I also wondered if it was sugar withdrawal but I quit sugar over two weeks ago. I barely eat any brown rice, quinoa or other low GI grains. I have a couple times but I'd rather just not risk feeding the beast with things that turn in to sugar too quickly.
The whole reason I found out about this is because of the Gastro symptoms I went to the hospital with. I had severe pain and burning in the area of my colon. They ran a CT scan and didn't see any major inflammation. They did blood work and they found only minor issues with some of the levels related to my liver. i went to an actual Gastro doctor a week ago and he suggested it could be IBS but said I should consider a colonoscopy if the symptoms don't get better. I told him the reasearch i did about Candida and asked him what he thought. He said he didn't believe that a fungal overgrowth could happen. I asked him if he knew what caused IBS and he said no. So, i said 'Then it is possible its fungus and we don't know yet'. He said anything is possible but it seems unlikely.
Other symptoms I've had are a lack of sex drive, muscle pain, heightened anxiety, a disconnected feeling, tingling or numbness in limbs, and one strange really strange one… the bottoms of my feet got super sore all of a sudden and callused up to where i could barely walk on them. I had to get insoles… that seemed to pass though after i got insoles. I've worked out a lot before and never had that happen. All the symtoms seemed to happen around the same time. Though i've been plagued with anxiety attacks and gastro problems for several years. So much so that I thought I had Celiacs for a while when my mom was diagnosed a few months ago because I had issues eating wheat. But all my symptoms got very serious about 3 weeks ago. Gastro symptoms were enough to land me in the hospital.
It's really great to have a supportive group like this. I thought I was going crazy or had cancer or something and was going to die. This is pretty nasty stuff but I'm happy to at least know I'll probably survive. If I had have known about this possible condition sooner I could have kept it from getting serious. It's unfortunate our medical industry serves the drug companies rather than us.August 9, 2011 at 6:50 pm #64560

The fact that, as you say, psyllium fibre 'scrubs the colon" can be a problem because of the husks which are very hard and sharp, making it dangerous for the intestines and colon. Even psyllium husk powder can contain tiny shards which, when ingested are not safe enough to move through the delicate pathway of the intestines. Psyllium has actually been known to cause bleeding of the intestines as well as bloating.
The common warnings for psyllium use are to stop using a psyllium product and call a doctor at once if you experience choking or trouble swallowing, severe stomach pain or cramping, nausea or vomiting, rectal bleeding, an itchy skin rash, or constipation that lasts longer than 7 days.
Acacia Senegal fiber, such as Heather's Tummy Fiber, is an organic Acacia Senegal fiber known for the management of Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms as well as any type of constipation or cleanser for the intestine is a 100% Acacia Senegal product. It contains the highest grade available, and is a natural, pure, organic soluble dietary fiber. Medicinally, Acacia Senegal sooths mucous membranes of the intestines and is used to treat inflammation. In addition, it's often used as an astringent to treat bleeding, bronchitis, diarrhea, gonorrhea, and upper respiratory tract infections.
To Invisiwill:
Die-off symptoms often include night sweats, and actually sweating is exactly what you want to do when experiencing die-off symptoms as it helps to remove the dangerous toxins from your body. Look for two products to help remove the toxins and therefore reduce or remove most of the die-off symptoms, Molybdenum and Candidate by Native Remedies.

Thanks! The night sweats are definitely troublesome and I was concerned because I read somewhere else that night sweats are an indication of a possible thyroid problem. It's good to know others are having the issue related to Candida though. I noticed the recommendation of Candidate and Molybdenum in one of your other posts. I might give that a try. Also might check out the fiber you recommend here. Have you used that fiber yourself? I saw some of the same warnings about Phyllium in my reading so I've been very cautious of it since severe pain in my colon area is where my awareness of this originated from. I don't want to risk damaging my healing colon.October 10, 2011 at 10:15 am #65918

I do just love this PDT (Proud Dad Thing) syndrome. My boy owns a home and can put together an awesome Thanksgiving dinner. A little over a year ago he was desperately searching for a job in his field (computer science) while tending bar at Bennigan's Grill. I am still grinning ear to ear when I remember yesterday.
Then there are my PDT daughter issues. She dumped Mr. Conservative for Mr. Wild N. Crazy. I can't help but hug her and bask in the euphoria exuding from her pores. She is my little girl after all and nothing can change that. I had a few sleepless nights about 15 years ago when Mr. Crazy was corrupting my unspoiled daughter with his rebellious ways. Apparently if you make it through your twenties, avoid run-ins with the law and otherwise succeed in life one shouldn't be judged by your 16 year old self. Life is interesting that way. Fatherhood is challenging that way :-)

A wonderful project. I have the same furnitures.ReplyDelete
I often wonder about their origin and age.
One set was bought in Austria, the other in Spain.
Do you have any data about who makes them?
My email is firstname.lastname@example.com. I'll be very grateful.
Hugs, DroraReplies
I bought them trough a mailorder firm (Direct Trade AB) here in Sweden, I have no clue who makes them, but I think they had a made in china sticker underneath. I think they look very swedish like "allmoge möbler från Dalarna" (Dalarna is a part of Sweden were they, among other things, paint "Dalahästar" and "kurbits")Delete

The first section of the The Extended Mind argues that cognition can be extended beyond the individual through the use of tools such as pen, paper and computers in coupled systems. The major advances in computing, since this article was written, have provided tools that are easily accepted as extensions to visual and audio processing, memory, problem solving, learning and other cognitive processes. The tools are active in what is described as active externalism. Our cognitive processes are improved substantially through the use of these computer extensions. It is as if some cognitive abilities were transferred into these tools by the hardware and software engineers who created them. Similarly, the pen and paper only participate in cognition once we transfer some of our cognition to them during the process of writing.
It could be argued that the degree of emotion can be changed when coupling with systems such as virtual reality or watching a film. Steve Ramirez and others claim to have artificially created a false memory of fear in mice - Creating a False Memory in the Hippocampus. How extended cognition applies to consciousness is left open. The paper acknowledges that the mental state of experience 'may be determined internally'.
The second section of the paper argues for the extended mind. It bases this on the case of a person believing they know where a museum is before consulting their memory for the exact address and an Alzheimer patient believing that their notebook has details of where the museum is. There seems to be some implication that belief is a special cognitive process in terms of the mind. What makes it different to memory? The patient has the memory that he stores information in his notebook, otherwise he would not look at it. Could belief just be a level of activation of a process that has not yet reached our awareness, just an unconscious process?
The extension of cognition is well argued, however, without a clear definition of belief and mind, it is difficult to come to the same conclusion about the extended mind.

After talking to various creative people ranging from other florists, artists, musicians etc. I always find that finding out where they get their inspiration from is so fascinating!
When people talk about what gets them going I always find that it sets me off on my own a little. I can't help but feel motivated to go out and create something.
Having thought about where other people get their inspiration (doodling, looking at the clouds, watching nature etc.) I thought about where I get inspiration from.
Very often, in the past, I have generally always had a rule to go by. For example, whilst I was in college, I had an assignment to create a popular brand logo using flower materials. I can't remember what other people in the class created. I'm pretty sure there was a Chanel or two, I went with the first thing that came to my mind… The Ferrari logo.
I remember when I first mentioned it, my tutor looked at me that said: "that is a little ambitious!"
But I persevered!
I thought about how I could bring the idea to life and it took a while to think about as is may look fairly simple but the black prancing horse is very intricate and detailed.
This is how it came out:
I used yellow Chrysanthemums for the base of the badge. The Ferrari badge has three stripes at the top representing the Italian flag which I made using Red berries, individually stitched and sewn into place. White Carnations which had been feathered to keep it equally thick as the other lines. Then green Chrysanthemums for the top stripe.
The "Ferrari" lettering and the prancing horse were cut, by hand, from a large black leaf then glued on top of the yellow Chrysanthemums.
It was long, hard and tedious at times and I know it's not quite millimetre perfect, but ultimately I think it turned out fantastic!
By having a guideline to follow, almost a restriction to focus your mind on something, I find I am able to come up with something and I use my problem-solving skills to bring that idea to fruition.
It doesn't always work out as well as this, but there are times when I think I do well in this way of thinking. This is why I like to do commission based work because the client knows roughly what they want, but they give me the freedom to do what I want with it still and (hopefully) please everyone with the result.
This is just one of the methods I use to 'paint on a blank canvas' so to speak. I will share more of how I look for inspiration, including one way which may be a little controversial and not spoken about too much. Stay tuned!
Remember to click that star if you enjoyed reading this passage. It will give me great motivation to write more and more in the future.

I had the privilege of experiencing the impact of Neal Hatfield and Uplands Reach several years ago. I grew up in a Christian home with amazing parents, but like so many others in similar homes, my faith was not my own. From the outside looking in, it appeared everything was all together. However, I had never taken ownership of my own spiritual walk and at 13 years old was already questioning my purpose in life. I remember sitting in a room and hearing Neal Hatfield preach for the first time. The Holy Spirit used his words, his testimony, and his compassion to put a spotlight on the one area I was missing, a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I made a decision to surrender my life to Christ that day and began life's greatest journey. The Hatfield's exemplified what it meant to live the victorious Christian life. 15 years later I have had the privilege of being married to Jill for over 5 years, built several successful companies, been invited to speak to thousands of people across the world on my testimony and faith that all started at Uplands Reach. That was the single best investment my parents have ever made into their children. I cannot thank Neal and Sue enough for the opportunity they gave me and have given to so many others.
Eternally grateful,
Zac Newell- 11/2017
My wife and I had the great pleasure of meeting Neal this morning. What an awesome message of the Cross he presented. My wife and I also rededicated our lives and marriage to God to use us as needed. Thank you so much for this message, and God bless you and your ministry!
Anne and I wanted to take a moment and let you know how much of a blessing you were on your recent trip to Richmond. There are several things that we appreciate about you and Sue; you're biblical, you're approachable, you're genuine, and you're Christ like. We will be praying for you and the work of Uplands Reach, and we hope to have the opportunity to drop by and see the camp sometime this summer.
Thanks for being with us for our Spring Revival at Mt. Olive. We experienced an outpouring of God's blessing as we witnessed the salvation of at least six people during the meetings. It was good to baptized three of them on Wednesday evening of the revival. Also, on Wednesday evening we saw over 100 teenagers in attendance with at least 20 of them making decisions that evening. It was a joy to see the altar full every night with people confessing sin and drawing closer to the Lord. We have seen at least ten people join our church in the weeks following the revival. Praise the Lord for choosing to smile up on us and moving in the hearts of those who attended the revival services.
I am excited about how God used you doing our Revival here at Sugar Grove Baptist Church! We had 17 saved! Praise God! And the altar was full each service! I know God did a work in the lives of everyone who attended, and He spoke to my heart as well. We look forward to the full effect of this revival in weeks ahead as God continues to change His church back to the way He made it!
Brother Neal came to our church for Spring Revival. The meeting was held Friday night, Saturday morning and night, and concluded Sunday morning with the hope of breaking the traditional mold for revival. I believe the power of God through the Holy Spirit was manifested as strong as we have experienced since my becoming the pastor at Cranberry. Three adults moved to receive and follow Christ! Brother Neal has been a mentor and friend for more than twenty years. I trust him to preach the whole truth of the Gospel!
On Sunday, I baptized two people, and two other joined the church. We are following up on several more. Also, a couple who has lived together for several years went to the courthouse and got married on Thursday after the services! You do have the gift/calling of evangelism, but the Lord clearly uses you to call His people to repentance and holiness. I believe that will have a great impact on the lost as God's people humble themselves and truly follow the Lord.
Uplands Reach is a place on fire for Jesus and the Gospel! I have the privilege of pastoring Neal and Sue Hatfield, who love Jesus more than anything in this world. Neal has preached every year at Mount Vernon, and it is evident that God's anointing stirs his heart for souls and the Gospel. If you want God to change your life, spend time at Uplands Reach, or invite their ministry into your church. You will be blessed for doing it!
WOW! What a way to start a letter. We can not thank you enough for coming to Casper Wyoming and speaking to many people at many different venues…God was in them all. Thank you again Sue for speaking to all the ladies on a Friday night and then to turn around the next morning, bright and early, and come to a Sportsmen Banquet Breakfast. Brother Neal you had the peoples attention from the start. Your talk of opossums and snakes and deer hunting led them all the way to the cross. Praise God, we had 33 decisions from people that morning after you spoke at our Sportsmen breakfast. It wasn't over yet. We had a Youth Rally that same day at a local Roller Rink with free pizza, and we seen God work again and another 14 teens made decisions. You probably think that I abused you by booking your time so full, but once again you came through and even spoke at our church, Mt View Baptist Church at both services and a joint Sunday School the next morning. Brother, I lost count with all the decisions that were made, but that is a good problem to have. I began today with breaking down the list and contacting people about their decisions. We can say that our church has never seen that many decisions made in one weekend.
Thank you Neal and Sue for coming in a blizzard of a snow storm and enduring the Wyoming cold bitter wind. I say again, WOW! Praise God for people like Neal and Sue, for they have and exhibit the heart of God.

From 2010
Part 2
|So here's part 2.
Click on the picture of the tape to go to the mix.
Below are details of the tracks.
Everlasting Light - The Black Keys
A great chugging tune to start off this compilation. The Black Keys are rocking and bluesy and equally good on record and live.
Mushrooms and Roses - Janelle Monae
Janelle Monae made the Guardian's favourite album of the year. Don't let that put you off though. The Archandroid is a really good album. Did I mention that its a concept record with a sci fi theme. No come back it really is good.
Over the course of the album Monae runs through plenty of different musical styles from funk to rockabilly via folk. She has connections to both Kanye West and Outkast. This particular song is kind of psychedelic. Imagine a female Prince and you are nearly there. To my mind though this is a much more focused and less indulgent album than anything that the Minnesota midget ever produced.
Hotel - Three Blind Wolves
Three Blind Wolves are not the epitome of rock'n'roll. The music is country tinged and the singer looks quite geeky.
Still the songs are excellent (said geek is rated one of the best songwriters in Scotland) and the singer has a good if slightly unorthodox voice.
Lay Your Love - Rosie Doonan
Rosie's from my home town but she's in here on merit. Her second album captures the eclectic mix of folk and pop that she plays with various combinations of musicians.
Thurso - Over The Wall
This Duo hit the stage at Oporto in a rush of energy and bopped about for half an hour. It wasn't til they hit their last song 'Thurso' that I was convinced though. If you've ever been to Thurso you might wonder what in that windswept coastal town inspired this mini epic.
You Run Like A Girl - Unbunny
I have to include at least one act from the great gigs put on by Gary and Dave Cotton down Henry Boon's in Wakefield.
The Unbunny gig was possibly the best. He played the first half of the set completely unplugged. The intimacy of the gig was amazing.
Fable - Ryan Spendlove
Out of all the acts I've seen this year Ryan Spendlove is possibly my current favourite. Everybody I've taken to see him as loved him. He has a fantastic voice and a bag full of great songs.
He's also a lovely (if often inebriated) feller.
The Parting Glass - Hannah Peel
|A lovely haunting ballad to finish with. Hannah Peel plays with various acts including the Unthanks, Blue Roses and Tunng. However she's an interesting live act in her own right. I'm looking forward to hearing her debut album which is just out.

Should You Have Personal Accident Cover?
Life can be cruel sometimes, and as much as we'd like to pretend otherwise, accidents do happen. Personal accident cover can protect you financially if you find yourself unable to work due to the injuries sustained in an accident. Here's what you need to know about personal accident cover.
What Is Personal Accident Cover?
This type of cover is often mixed up with accidental death cover (which pays a lump sum to your beneficiaries if an accident causes your death) but the two are actually quite different. Personal accident cover protects you if injuries sustained in an accident stop you from working, provided that the injuries are external and visible and have occurred as the direct result of an accident.
Most policies will pay up to 75% of your income, as long as you're off work for longer than the minimum number of days specified in the policy. For most policies, you can choose for benefits to be paid for either two or five years, or right up until retirement, depending on the severity of the injury and how badly it affects your ability to work on a long-term basis.
Why You Need It
Accidents happen every day, and no matter how careful you are, you can't guarantee that they won't happen to you. Taking out personal accident cover can offer you valuable peace of mind if an unexpected injury means that you can't go about your normal work.
Personal accident cover could prove to be particularly crucial if you're self-employed and aren't entitled to paid sick leave as it would most likely be your only option other than dipping into savings to keep you afloat.
Other Benefits
Piece of mind isn't the only benefit attached to personal accident insurance. Regardless of whether you need to access the benefits, personal accident insurance premiums are tax deductible, so there are some great tax-related benefits involved too.
What Isn't Covered?
There will often be exclusions in terms of what is and isn't covered by the policy. For example, injuries that are self-inflicted won't usually be covered and some policies may exclude dental injuries. Sickness isn't covered by a personal accident policy, so you'll need to look at other types of cover if you want to be protected from inability to work due to sickness rather than an accident.
Personal accident insurance is often confused with accidental death insurance but the two types of insurance are actually quite different. While a personal accident policy pays benefits to protect against loss of income after an accident, an accidental death policy is similar to a life insurance policy, and pays a lump sum to dependents if you're involved in a fatal accident.
If you're worried about how you would survive financially if an accident left you unable to work for even a relatively short period of time, personal accident insurance is definitely something that you should strongly consider. This is particularly true if you're self-employed and wouldn't receive sickness benefits to tide you over until your return to work.
Even if you never need to claim, the reassurance that you won't be forced into debt if accident-related injuries stop you from working can be invaluable, and there are tax benefits too. Look into all your options and compare policies carefully to get the best cover for you, at the best price.

Posts tagged 'Max'
Our First Christmas With Max
We adopted Max the end of March, a beautiful four year old Italian Greyhound. He's a southern boy from Kentucky and has not adapted well to the cold weather. Since he's from the south, he's never had to wear clothes to keep warm, so every time we dress him, he refuses to move. Therefore, it was relatively easy to get these pictures of Max dressed up for the holidays. Enjoy – I guarantee Max didn't!
I would like to thank Max for his sacrifice. He was (and is) a good boy.
May the farce be with you!

They've never seen
these costumes on the dogs.

Clear Misunderstanding
Last week I took Max to the vet for a routine vaccination. Before we went in, he looked like this.
When he came out, I thought he would look like this.
Or this.
It's with mixed feelings that I report Max is neither a gigolo nor a pimp.
Apparently, Max was not vaccinated for Bordello but rather Bordetella. I think it's clear why I misunderstood.
May the farce be with you!
Your IFF,
Broken Nose
"Hallelujah! I can breathe through both nostrils! It's a miracle! I am sooooooo lucky! Praise the dog!"
I'm sure I said this or something similar as I lay on the floor writhing in pain after Max, my Italian Greyhound, broke my nose. Coming home from a brief outing, Max was excited to see me and hit his head, with the force of a baseball, on my sniffer.
I heard the crack, felt intense, blinding pain, fell onto the floor, shouted words of praise to Max, and curled into a fetal position with my hands covering my face waiting for the pain to pass.
This wasn't the first time I had broken my nose but I hope it's the last. I was a teenager the first time I split my snout. In a car with a group of friends, we decided to do a Chinese fire drill – a prank in which passengers get out of a stopped car, circle it and return to their seats. My nose broke when I ran into a friend's shoulder. Everyone in the car ran the wrong direction except me .
My second major break occurred during a major break in my acting career. After being cast as the princess in "The Frog Princess", I tried to walk through a glass window I had mistaken for an open doorway. Fortunately for the production, I spent the majority of the play inside a frog head.
No longer able breathe through my nose, I underwent surgery to repair the damage. As I was healing, I sneezed and jammed my schnoz into Stephen's shoulder. My doctor was less than pleased by my inability to protect his work but at least I could still breathe out of one nostril…until Max. The break I had sustained all those years ago was fixed by one quick dog head to the face.
I love my little Max but I don't want my nose broken again because I like airflow through both nostrils so I'm very careful around him now.
It was a lucky day when we adopted Max and luckier still when he performed a septoplasty on me without an anesthetic.
May the farce be with you!
Your IFF,
Chew On This
I have two little dogs – 17 and 11 pounds. When shopping for treats, I discovered large flat chews that are almost as big as my dogs.
I started with a pack of three because I wasn't sure how they would respond. Our plan was to cut them into smaller pieces but Mia and Max found the big ones irresistible. Even though they each had their own, I quickly discovered they always wanted the same one.
Observing this behavior, it seems that dogs are a lot like people. The grass is always greener (aka the other chew always tastes better). And, we don't always appreciate what we have.
Based on empirical evidence (my observation), both chews are fantastic. One doesn't taste better than another so enjoy what you were given. Hmm, I think these sage words apply to us as well. Just remember – don't bite off more than you can chew.
May the farce be with you!
Your IFF,
This Little Doggy (An Updated Nursery Rhyme)
This little doggy went to market.
She likes to get all dressed up to go shopping in high-end stores, buying anything she wants.
This little doggy stayed home.
He slept. He's an old man. Sleeping is one of his favorite things.
This little doggy would love to have roast beef, chicken, turkey, pork, pasta, pizza…
He'll eat almost anything if given the chance.
This little doggy had none. Sadly, his person restricts his dietary intake.
On the bright side – he maintains his svelte figure by eating right plus 4-6 hours of vigorous exercise a day.
These little doggies went wee wee wee all the way home.
Because they're so happy to be together.
May the farce be with you!
