    I'll tell you, celia, so you don't fall over from exhaustion! lol

    I listed 9 "santas" that I needed to hear from yet

      • perry
      • veniceIt
      • wildthing
      • goshawk
      • grout
      • mamashel
      • sortafairytale
      • coolbreeze
      • queer reality

      These are the "Secret Santas" that I haven't heard from yet.......please email me when you get the chance and let me know if your gifts have been mailed out so that I can pass on the info. Thanks!

      ...on my desk, these "santas" and recipients are listed on the same line......when I originally copied down the list of those still waiting for their gifts (before editting).....I listed them in the same order as the "Santas"....so you could have matched up names no problem and found out the secret! BUT.....to make sure that you didn't, I edited the list so you have no idea (but you do know that one of these nine people listed above is your "Santa") and I can't say no more! LOL

    celia...........because lovesdubs already received her gift from yersu awhile ago and kelpie's has been sent already as well as dawn's (she may have received hers already....things are starting to run together )

    As of my notes, these are the ones that are waiting for gifts that I haven't heard anything about yet:

    • funkyderek
    • eyegirl
    • celia
    • syn
    • randomtask
    • scully
    • beautifulgarbage
    • trotofax
    • asortafairytale

    Edited to jumble up the names so celia wouldn't figure out who her secret santa is!

    i wish to register a strenuous complaint.

    bought a bottle of my favourite wine last night, removed the aluminium cover off the neck and saw that it didnt have a cork, but it had a plastic pseudo thing inserted in the neck cunningly disguised so as to have the "appearance" of a cork.

    so i wound the cork screw in.

    well, it went sorta shaky today i guess.

    this is a temp service job interview and gives job placements for those who match interests between employer and employee.. i told the interviewer that i am deaf and can read lips, but problem was he wasn't making it easy for me.

    his lips moved faster than the tansmania devil that i had to slow him down a good number of times.

    I have a Doctor's Book of Home Remedies and looked up psoriasis.......here is what was said:

    • Lubricate w/emollients. Emollient can be your favoring nonirritating body oil or something as mundane as vegetable shortening or petroleum jelly. Most effective when applied right after bathing when you are still "dripping wet"
    • Seek the Sun (hard to do this time of year)
    • A cold water bath, maybe with a cup of apple cider vinegar added is great for itching. Another thing is ice. Dump ice cubs into a small plastic bag and hold against afflicted skin
    • cortisone.
    • Seal off psoriasis. Cover lesions w/tape or plastic wrap for days or weeks can help clear up psoriasis, especially after cortison creme applied first.
    • Destress yourself. Overwhelming evidence that stress can trigger.
    • Add fish oil to your diet.

    I by no means am a doctor, but thought maybe some home remedies might help.

    LOL.......after I posted this I got to read your post, Yizuman....seems that you already knew all this stuff! But, you know, I didn't.....it was good for me to read up on it!
