Hi Everyone

I did well with my emotions and since my mom didnt cry in the church I was doing good there. I did lose it when my dad and I danced and he did too. I also lost it when I opened up my parents card this morning, and my mom wrote me this very nice letter about how she loved me since she saw me first open my eyes. *tears are forming* So I will spare any more details you get the point.

:) Oh, Amanda, you look BEAUTIFUL in that photo! And I, as well, cried when my dad and I danced, and also just briefly when he turned to me after we'd walked down the aisle and had tears in his eyes and said he loved me. And no, he was not dressed as an old woman, or an obese chef, or a Mexican prison guard...(Thank gawd)....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BEV!!!

Think I'll stay in birthday red for the day, as it is a great, lively, and in many cultures, SEXUAL colour...

Along with green guy, we need a Party Chick emoticon...

"In my forties, I'm going to pay attention to something I'd almost lost track of: myself. I'll be moving forward, not only as someone's wife or mother, sister or daughter, writer or friend, but as the woman I've become somewhere along the way. In this decade, I intend to slow down and think and appreciate and learn. And even if I have no great new accomplishment to show for the next ten years, I know the process will be exhilarating."

Smart, anonymous 40 year-old woman

:huh:

OMG - look what I"ve been up to: go to ebay, search "vintage ferragamo purse handbag" (not in quotes) and see what comes up. :lol: :lol: :lol: I have to say, I really cracked myself up on that one.......although I think that *I* think it's funnier than anyone else does.............I had quite a good chuckle, draping the purse over my long-suffering girls..........

what a pathetic life I lead.

:huh:

We actually do not leave for our honeymoon until Weds evening. We did sleep a good deal this afternoon. It has been a tiring few days. So now, it will be a relaxing night and back to work in the morning. :) Talk to you guys tomorrow.

Dear Amanda,

Best wishes to you and congratulations to your new husband! I am sorry I could not get on here sooner. Delayed honeymoons are sometimes better. Most couples are too tired to be "busy" on the wedding night. They are usually too tired! :lol: My husband could just get me some truffles and I would be perfectly fine while he lays there and sleeps. :P

Dear Bev,

Happy late birthday! :) Think about this. Being forty has a lot of advantages. We throw over-the-hill parties in our family. They are so morbid. Naturally, that is why I enjoy them! :lol:

You said after your wedding you went to school for a week. Did you learn anything you could use on your honeymoon? :lol: I have not learned anything so far I could use on a honeymoon. Maybe when I pursue my Bachelor's, I could take some more informative classes. What do you think?

Dear Emily,

Carla has a good point. Since your father was not dressed up, how did you know it was him? What if you were really dancing with your mother? Maybe your father was dressed like your mother? Maybe he was in the hot tub with the Yeti. Or is Lance in the hot tub with the Yeti, and Ashley was dressed up as your father? Crap, now I am confused!

Here is another thought. What if it was a Mexican dressed up as your father? What if it was a clown? He did not have his make-up on, but someone else's! Why would he do this? What kind of nutcase does that type of thing? Well, although there is no simple answer, one thing we know for sure. Everything comes down to poo!

Dear Susie,

Your poor Stinker! I think that should be considered dog abuse. My mother dresses up Dart. He hates it. She just bought him a Santa suit. :rolleyes:

Dear Janet,

You Bengay how long? :P I had to ask. That always spawns the phrase! Anyone who knows that is forced to say it anytime someone mentions that stuff. Do not ask me why, I did not make up the law. I think the Yeti did. It was in retaliation to the shells in his hair.

Dear Nikki,

I heard the Yeti is plotting revenge. He is seeking farting cats. That is all I know at this point. I have heard from reports and I have spied on him. Since I am the Silly Town private investigator, this is my job.

Sincerely,

Jin

P.S. Hi tom, Patti, Carla, Daughter_of_the_Light, Richard, and everyone else!

Jin...you could very well be onto something. This just may change my entire life, and the way I remember my momentous Wedding Day. Maybe my dad was dressed as my mom. And you know, there was a Mexican man there, quietly in the back. I thought he was a friend on my husband's side, or a migrant worker coming in for a break in the heat. And clowns...well, there were a few of those walkin' around, I'll tell ya... :lol:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      By SilkieFairy · Posted

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Lkg5 · Posted

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      By catnapt · Posted

      my IGG is 815 IGA 203  but tTG-Iga is   <0.4!!!!!!!!!!!!!   oh my god- 13 days of agony and the test is negative?  I don't even know what to do next. There zero doubt in my mind that I have an issue with wheat and probably more so with gluten as symptoms are dramatically worse the more gluten a product has   I am going to write up the history of my issues for the past few years and start a food/symptom diary to bring with me to the GI doctor in March.   I googled like crazy to try to find out what other things might cause these symptoms and the only thing that truly fits besides celiac is NCGS   but I guess there are some other things I maybe should be tested for ...? like SIBO?   I will continue to eliminate any foods that cause me distress (as I have been doing for the past couple of years) and try to keep a record. Can anyone recommend an app or some form or something that would simplify this? I have a very full and busy life and taking the time to write out each symptom name in full would be tedious and time consuming- some sort of page with columns to check off would be ideal. I am not at all tech savvy so that's not something I can make myself ... I'm hoping there's some thing out there that I can just download and print out   do I give up on testing for celiac with such a low number? I am 70 yrs old I have been almost completely off gluten for the most part for about 2 yrs. I had a meal of vital wheat gluten vegan roast,  rolls and stuffing made from home baked bread and an apple pie- and had the worst pain and gas and bloating and odd rumblings in my gut etc - almost went to the ER it was so bad. I was thinking, since I'm spilling a lot of calcium in my urine, that perhaps this was a kidney stone (never had one before but there's always that first time, right?)    Saw my endo on Jan 20th and after hearing the story about the symptoms from eating that holiday meal, she suggested doing a gluten challenge. She said 2 weeks was fine- she said stopping it in the middle if symptoms got bad was fine- In the meantime I'd read that 2 weeks was not enough- called and argued with the nurse about this, but ultimately decided to stop the gluten on the 13th day and get the test done because I was in too much pain and almost suicidal and knew I could not continue.   so.............. that's where I am now I have had no bread since Sunday. I did have some rolled oats today and had some gas and bloating afterwards I did have some wheat germ in a smoothie on Tuesday and had a stomach ache later that night.   but overall I feel so much better! all the joint pain is gone! the nausea is gone. The stomach pain and gas and bloating are going away. Still a bit gassy but no more of that horrible odor. wow, that would clear a room if I was out in public!  I see a GI nurse March 4th  I hope she'll be able to help sort this out! can you think of what my next steps might be?

      Is it gluten?

      nothing has changed

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.
