Warning: Sad Story

Christmas for one reason or another is not always the most joyous time of the year as we expect and always hope for. Sometimes for one reason or another, it can be the worst time of our lives.   I have had one of those awful Christmases, but I hate calling it awful, as there some wonderful and not so wonderful memories, but by calling Christmas 73 awful, would belittle the memory of my brother.   This is sad, but probably not as sad as it can get. My brother was 19, I was 16 and this was 3

Leaving For Christmas: December 18, 2006

I've been having some anxiety today, don't know if it's due to the gluten or what. A friend of mine was killed Sunday night on the way back from her family Christmas. A woman in another car crossed the center line and hit them head on. Deb was killed instantly and the woman and her husband in the other car were killed. Deb's husband is in very critical condition. Why do all the good ones die? A couple months ago another friend died suddenly. It's so unreal. My heart breaks for Deb's chil

Up Early, But At Least Not Middle Of The Night.

When I went to bed last night at 8:30, I turned on music to go to sleep to. I don't remember hearing any of it, as I must have been asleep instantly. I woke up at 6:00 AM to go to the bathroom. But just to pee pretty much. I think giving my bowels a rest yesterday by not eating until evening was the best thing to do. I ate some chicken last night, and a few rice crackers with hazelnut butter. I know, I shouldn't really eat rice crackers, but I needed something, and was too tired to cook for my

Daughter's Recital Was Great!

Well, after not eating any breakfast or lunch and only drinking some water and chamomile tea until nearly 7:00 PM, I made it through the day without major problems. I didn't get any more sleep after my last entry, as every time I thought of going to bed, I'd have to rush to the bathroom instead. So, I had about four hours of sleep the night before last night, and about three hours last night. Meaning, I'll be going to bed soon to try to catch up on some sleep.   I know, I usually NEVER go to

Midnight Run(s)

I was hoping so much that this night I could just make it through the night, it sure felt like it was possible when I went to bed. But no such luck. I woke up at 4:00 AM, and just made it to the bathroom, where I stayed for an hour (sigh). Now it is 5:00 AM, and I don't feel like it's safe to go back to bed yet.   Seriously, how will I make it through the day on so little sleep? I haven't had a decent, uninterrupted night's sleep in a week! I am supposed to go to church, and to my daughter's r

It's The Middle Of A Dark, Rainy Night........

Okay, here I am again in the middle of the night. I actually DID go to bed at 11:00 PM, and fully intended to sleep until morning. Unfortunately, my bowels didn't agree with this plan. And since I'll likely be hours, running to the bathroom every few minutes, I thought I might as well make the best of it and do a little writing for distraction.   Right now I am in the middle of reading four books (plus a computer book). I rarely just read one book at a time. I guess one reason is, that I mostl

Best Food: Hushpuppies! Good enuff to make me howl for more! Pralines- gluten-free! Saddest: Couldn't try the famous beignets! Worst Restaurants: HerbSaint--they didn't have the food listed on the online menu! ugh! And it was COLD in there. Dick & Jenny's: expensive food and they use JIFFY mix for their cornbread. (not gluten-free) I got by eating seafood salads sans croutons in restaurants for lunches and instant grits, candy, chips, and hot chocolate I brought for eating in my hotel r

      Yes, I have one of the older models and have tested many products with it. For me it seems like a valuable tool and I have used it to test foods that I eat regularly, which are naturally gluten-free, for example salsa, refried beans, etc.

      Has anyone tried the NIMA gluten detector?  I'm seriously thinking of investing in one. I haven't eaten out at a restaurant since my late diagnosis 4 years ago (I'm 55 in March)  Any information would be greatly appreciated
