Yes and no. Had to run over last night when Mom fell trying to do something she knows she's not supposed to do. But it helps that my Sister and I don't have to be there every day.

And we're trying to get Dad thru to next Tuesday for his new Pacemaker. Once it's in, we're hoping it will help him.

Edit: and now it is. Some kind of gut virus.

Or you can buy the enzyme in pill form and take it whenever you start drinking milk or having a lactose-infested dish so that it takes care of the troublesome disaccharide before if throws off the osmotic balance further down. You can get packs of generic store brand lactase enzyme for maybe 20 cents a pill. Look for the pills with at least 9000 U of lactase.

As for milk with L. acidophilus, that's exactly how one makes yogurt, although usually yogurt also has L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus.



Yep, and L. acidophilus breaks down lactose meaning I don't have to take pills. Everyone wins. Except for the Lactaid people.

I can drink like a glass of milk, but you get past one glass and it ends badly. So I'm not horribly lactose intolerant. The acid milk may not be good for those that are.

Yes.
What's a onesie? That's no word! My guess is that its a pouch for a Lucky Wang.

That'd be the shirt with snaps you put on a baby so they don't get all tangled up in it.

But yes, you probably shouldn't be naming a clothing store for children Lucky Wang

edit: though I suppose it could be argued that is precisely the reason you're in a children's clothing store

A Onesie is one of those one-piece baby garments. It's actually a brand name that has become the common name - like Band-Aid and Kleenex.

My brother gave me three wolf pattern full adult size footie pajamas for Xmas. Not quite an awesome gift. (google it if you dare) I am tempted to wear it for my best mans speech at his wedding.

The onsie talk reminded me of this.

I found out my cousin was pregnant via Facebook.


But even better than that....my mom found out I was in a relationship from my aunt because she saw it on Facebook before I had a chance to tell my mom directly.

Completely different topic: just opened my 2nd of 12 Monkey #2 bottles. It has gotten significantly better in the last 6 months. Not very fruity but great dusty leather and sage surrounding the cherry that is there. The whole thing backed by significant acid. Tannins are slim. Not a WOW wine but great QPR at its price. More old-world than new IMHO.

2013: 52btl. Crusher Orange wine (8 Btl), Terra Bella Cab (4 Btl), Wellington Victory (4 btl), Winesmith Chard (12 Btl), Ardente Cab (12Btl), McClean Syrah (12 bot)
Last purchase: 5/17/13
Longest SIWBM of year: 44 days

2012 - 98 btl. 2011- 112 btl. 2010 - 30 btl. Besser or Curly 2
