Actually the webs do creep me out almost as much as the critters themselves. Nothing like striding out your front door only to be enveloped in sticky spiderweb.... UGH!

Had a bat in my house about a year ago. It really freaked out my ten year old beagle. The bat was flying around and the beagle was howling at it. After we got the bat out of the house, the bealge hid under the bed for about a week whenever we left the house. Poor little beagle. :lol:

What about bat poop? :lol: What happens to all those eaten mosquitos while those bats are skimming you? :lol:

Having said that, I think I'd like to see those swarming bats...but if I ever go there I will go in rain attire, lol. :lol:

:lol: They don't poop on takeoff :lol:

I was standing below the swarm and turned out clean and dry at the end of it. The worst part was grass on my butt from sitting :)

I'm having some Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream right now. I never was a fan but my husband turned me on to it & I am hooked now. I'll bet he wonders sometimes where all his ice cream goes.

She sure did....

Way to go Rachel!

I wish you would have started it 2 months ago when I was eating dairy <_<

I'll bet he wonders sometimes where all his ice cream goes.

I haven't Picard.

My favorite was Haagen Dazs, Mayan Chocolate, Dulce de Leche, and Mango :D

Speaking of Mango, where are you??

(I say this though I have phobias of my own. SPIDERS are mine. I can handle one at a time but if someone invited me to sit in a restaurant while swarms of spiders scittered by I'd be out of there like a shot!!!!)

Spiders freak me out too! If I see one crawling across the floor it gives me the chills and I jump a mile in the air, I just can't even stand the sight of them. Sorry little spider dudes. I have to have someone squish them for me.

Sorry Picard, missed your post about the bat and your beagle. Poor little beagle :(

Well, I am off to my daughters school to drop her supplies off. She is in the 1st grade officially!!!!!

1st grade, how exciting :):) Such a big day!

you guys are talking to the 90-lb 16 year old girl who beat 3 argentinian men in a steak eating contest and then ate dessert! i love to eat!

I am about 3/4 way done with the ice cream already... YUMMY!

i eat haagen dazs and my favorites are strawberry, and the chocolate peanut butter, i think that chocolate and peanut butter and like the best combination alive!!!!!!!!! that'y why when i ate soy i would wolf down like 50 reeses cup every day!

Getting back to the APUSH notes, i just did 9 pages which is good, finished the chapter, only 40 pages more! and 7 days to do it and write an essay! YAY! so close to being done!

(i turn the internet off when i am working so i don't get distracted by you silly-makers so that i wnot do my homework... but i give myself a break when i finish a chapter or finish the day's work...)

Hey, Lymetoo, I'm a calligrapher & native Texan too. Is it something in the water? Ink, perhaps?

Maybe so!! I used to teach it to my third and fourth graders! They loved it and it helped their cursive writing as well!

My brother moved from Texas to Florida about 20 yrs ago and I found out one Christmas that he was doing calligraphy as well! We were both self-taught. His calligraphy is REALLY nice!!!

heheehe!!

I WAY more afraid of TICKS than spiders or bats! WAY more! Hate wasps too, as I swell up terribly from them.

I haven't seen the bats in Austin [except on TV] but I've seen bats coming out of several caves in Texas, as well as the bats in Carlsbad Caverns.

Bats are good....but not when they get too close!! We had some in our school once when I was student teaching. THAT was NOT good....but it provided a great learning experience for the children!

I LOVE haagen Dazs :P I also like Ritters custard....is that gluten free? I just realized that I don't really know :huh: I haven't had it in forever, so I never found out.

Ritter's won't commit. They're a cya company that just says, sorry, we can't feed you!! We have other people who will pay for our custard and we don't need you anyway! You'd probably sue us if we did feed you, we'd rather you starve!! <_<

Thank goodness there are companies out there who care that we eat and just let us decide what risk is worth it.

ive never heard of Ritters must not be a company that is in Cali

I am glad that some companies think that we should not die :P

I've not heard of Ritters either. Is it a frozen custard, or pudding-like custard??

If you like pudding Morgan, Cozy Shack is gluten-free, they don't want anyone to die :lol:

CarlaB Enthusiast

Ritter's is frozen custard. It's out of Indiana, started about 10 years ago and is spreading through franchising, mainly in the midwest. They'd be more popular IMHO if they served us!! Here they have a family of 8 who can't go there, so has to settle for somewhere else ... and I mean settle, they're the best! Except for the fact that they're jerks!!

flagbabyds Collaborator

if they are jerks they can't be the best for us!

haagen daaz what i live off of!

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.
    • Wheatwacked
      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
