I have been busy and sharing computer time with a teenager so I am not getting online much.<br />Transportation has been figured out so I will be serving, if my number is chosen.<br />I'll get something up. Maybe now, since Kiddo is not yet up.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051904118383493849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-9834017499302146872014-07-26T23:26:08.671-05:002014-07-26T23:26:08.671-05:00Hey Ruth - how's it going?

Not that I am a big fan, but it is added to a lot of things. Even no-nitrate hotdogs use celery because of their natural nitrate producing abilities.<br />I will get to the doctor soon.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051904118383493849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-83890381883722516182014-07-14T10:43:37.899-05:002014-07-14T10:43:37.899-05:00My wife recently found out that she's allergic...My wife recently found out that she's allergic to celery. She ate something with celery in it and her throat started to swell. Now she has to carry an epipen with her. Be careful; that throat swelling thing can actually kill you if it doesn't stop right away. <br /><br />If you see an allergist, they can probably tell you what it is. Better than finding out the hard way and having that happen again.A Beer for the Showerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17029139745335325356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-89007683793342636642014-07-10T07:40:39.526-05:002014-07-10T07:40:39.526-05:00Munir, The courthouse is 15 miles away so transpor...Munir, The courthouse is 15 miles away so transportation is more the issue, but that is being worked out.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051904118383493849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-8132191248680918172014-07-07T17:15:57.486-05:002014-07-07T17:15:57.486-05:00I hope that you can get out of going for Jury duty...I hope that you can get out of going for Jury duty with the help of a doctor's note.

I don't eat much processed foods, but I know the MSG is in my salad dressing. I am just going to be careful and hopefully pinpoint the cause. When I get a reaction, write down what I ate and what's in it.<br />I went to fill out an app and realized I need to figure out the dates of my last employment.<br />I have kale and lettuce to pick and can't get in there and I worry that my onions will rot in the ground if it doesn't dry out soon.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051904118383493849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-73249974514539469512014-07-07T09:49:09.653-05:002014-07-07T09:49:09.653-05:00Alrighty - here's my assessment - like you'...Alrighty - here's my assessment - like you've been waiting, right!!<br /><br />You can ask to be excused from jury duty if it presents a hardship. I was asked, years ago (the first time) and it would have been a financial strain as they pay peanuts. <br />The second time I was in a better position to, as you say, do my duty. I recommend you find out how long of a case it might be - they can give you some indication.<br /><br />I googled MSG and throat swelling - seems you may be right - MSG is brutal. I avoid it at all costs, mostly because I feel shitty after ingesting it. The dairy thing is news to me, but I think food dyes in some coloured cheeses would be more likely the problem.<br /><br />Since this is in your mouth and throat it is obviously something that immediately causes a reaction and that brings me back to MSG - and yes, it's in almost everything packaged/bottled - so then it's Mother Nature's fault because your garden is suffering under her constant deluge. (bitch that she is sometimes!!)<br /><br />I'm sending thoughts of good health and smart decision-making your way - you'll do the right thing with both.<br /><br />Cheers, JennyPearson Reporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05422640826640133140noreply@blogger.com
