I would NEVER give my children YooHoos . . . are you nuts? And daddy never farts . . . only the dog farts at our house, go figure. :huh:

That's the "I just found an Easter egg" victory dance (egg held high and just out of the picture). If you look close, you'll notice she's wearing her Christmas jammies. :D

Gah! That's great! A couple years ago, Lucas ran up to me with an egg and shouted, The Easter Bunny came last night!!! Since it was late September, I raised an eyebrow. I asked him, Where did you get that chocolate egg? The kitty had it. Hrmmm, better give me that, honey.

Incidentally...

My cat (who now lives with my parents) is very old and crabby. She is the tiniest full-grown cat in the world, and is completely black. She is 14 years old and hates kids. :( She's actually never scratched the kids, but they freak her out. So when Ezra started walking, he'd chase her a little.

So, here's something that I still laugh about when it randomly pops into my head. Ezra, 18 months old, corners the cat. The cat turns around, arches her back a bit, and hisses at him. And Ezra giggled hilariously and hissed back!!! So then for a few months after that, he'd run after the cat, giggling and hissing at her. Sigh... I think he thought she was his buddy. The cat thought, er, something else.

:lol:

One day the kids and I were in Sam's Club. Ezra was in the big part of the cart, and Lucas walked beside me as I pushed it. Well, Ez has horrible gas- silent and deadly. Luke and I were like, Jeez Ez, gah that's really awful! And he'd say, What I don't smell anything!

And I had to explain to the kids the concept of how farts linger in the air. Ezra would fart, and then Lucas and I would have to walk through the gas cloud. :lol: It was science in action! ;)

I think Nikki is done with his hair, and has moved to the manicure/pedicure portion of "the full treatment". She's brave one that Nikki. I heard she was raised by wolves in the Scottish highlands. ;)

Ah can 'nae deny it - aye - it were tough

Nikki- Kurt downloaded Little Britain. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Most excellent silliness :D

And daddy never farts . . . only the dog farts at our house, go figure. :huh:

Kind of the reverse in my house - all blame it on Daddy (easy target- bless 'im)

Right now the Yeti beats ALL beings (can Yeti's get celiac disease? - and what the bloomin' 'eck has he been eating :blink: )

BTW - Bev - he's being difficult about the shell bikini

Nikki, what are you complaining about? :lol: I agree, our yeti beats all beings gas-wise, but you were only doing his hair...I was the inseam measurer, remember?! Talk about a rush job...

So, he'll have the shell bikini on under his tux, and perhaps he can fling his pants off as he's ascending the aisle for the big view. I can understand his being "difficult" about the shells around his midsection, what with digging in and all. I'm assuming there will be no one on the guest list from the SPCA, or Endangered Animal Rescue...

I think I"ll get married. :rolleyes:

But shoot, have appointments today and can't be on Zombie watch!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

Patti - Yea! Worse parts over! How are the washer and dryer? Did they make it OK?

I had to leave my beautiful set at the other house--the ones here are not nearly as nice :angry:

I'd say Patti is your best bet for help w/ laundry - and only 2 hrs away! Why, she could come to your house and do it for you! When she's done there she can stop over at my house (her unpacking can wait ;) ) I'll make peanut blossoms, and I'll even share my stash of Mike 'n Ikes with her...(That's candy, NOT people chained up in my basement).

Richard is my new secretary.... :lol:

Perhaps i can convince the wife to drop me at the hobby shop whilst she tries on every pair of shoes within the city limits :o

And don't rush her :P Shoes are of the utmost importance.

Is that REALLY you in the avatar???????

I saw Richard's pic. too B) He looks like someone.....can't for the life of me think of who though....

Oh I just had the most satisfying bowel movement. :rolleyes: (few and far between, folks, what with all the calcium :huh: ) Perhpas popcorn is the key?

Yep--my money'd be on the popcorn ;) Does some satisfying things for me. too :D

Other embarrassing songs on the Ipod:

I like "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" :ph34r:

Nikki said "moobs" :lol:

Amanda---TOMORROW!!!!!!!! :o My only advice is to remember to breathe and enjoy every minute of the day tomorrow--it's gonna go by so fast. :)

I've been thinking this, also...Well, we DO have the honeymoon... :D

Amanda, I've got all these butterflies in my stomach for you...kind of nice to have those, again, instead of gas pain. Cannot think of ANY poignant advice, or any resonating quotations about love and/or marriage. Man, I'm slipping! :lol:

I can't wait for the honeymoon! It will be so much fun! We are going to need a really big hot tub!

How many do we have to fit in? Let's see...all of us, plus Amanda's new hubby, the Yeti, Danny, Richard's wife and her shoes, the dingos, Allo, all my pets, the yeti, Lance and Ashley? maybe we shouldn't invite them :P

Oh and those Mike and Ike guys that Richard is holding hostage in his basement :ph34r:

I could be wrong here, but I don't think Ashley would share our brand of humor :lol:

Good plan - don't forget the special filter (yeti fur).....shell themed bathing suits??? :unsure:

Although I just don't know what it'll do to the yeti's hairdo (shells an' all)....but hey!! ...once it's over what does it matter WHAT we look like ?!? :blink:

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
