OK, so here is the absolute worse thing, I've EVER had to clean up. My previous old girl, Maggie, had a (sweet?) tooth for cat poo. The neighbors behind us have a cat that comes and uses our mulch as a litter box. When Maggie was younger, it would give her hellaceous gas. When she got older and started having some GI issues, it would cause her to vomit. It would be partially digested and the stench was undescribable. Vomitous cat poo . . . nothing like it!

Rest of the page would be covered with green emoticon guy if he was available.

Hope y'all are having a lovely Sunday morning. :P

OMG- that's what I feel like today- vomitous cat poo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you chocolate with barley malt :angry: :angry:

Nikki- I ADORE your mole!!!!!!!!!!!!! Much cuter than mine.

Happy Birthday Les!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EGADS- shopping this weekend? :ph34r: It's been Christmas since the day after Halloween here at our lovely malls. Do they have MALLS in the UK? I do not like them!!!!!!!!!!! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE LOVE shopping, but I HATE malls.

OGM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Listen to this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so I met my friend at Mervyn's - I HATE that store (much prefer Target or all kinds of other places) and, since she only bought two pairs of shoes, I did not get one. :huh: Oh well, didn't want any.............but she DID buy me a late lunch/early dinner.

OMG - - we went to this little somewhat Italian bistro - there are four or five here in the valley. I was telling the waiter that I couldn't have any gluten - he gave me a blank stare :huh: and said - our chef can't eat wheat. Great, I said , it's a little more complicated than that......but send him out.

OMG OMG OMG OMG - -

so the chef comes out and says,

I HAVE CELIAC DISEASE ALSO!

:o

:wub: :wub: :wub:

Nothing funny to add tonight. Saturday was a busy day and I didn't get here at all. Just catching up now.

Happy birthday, Les. :)

A celiac's dream: Going to a restaurant and discovering that the chef is a celiac. Wow! :):)

US Thanksgiving is in just a few days. Who is having the Yeti over for the turkey dinner? ;)

Here in Canada we have our Thanksgiving the second Monday in October, so it is is over for this year. But, since I have allegience to both Canada and the US (dual citizen) I am well aware of the American version. Unless you are totally demented, don't even try to go shopping on Friday. :lol:

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

Janet, I see you! :P

Well, it IS lovely trying to figure out whether Maggie was an animal or a kid! :lol: The first time through I was thinking you were talking about a child! :lol::o :o

Well, Maggie (the dog) was in my av awhile back. I just assumed everyone saw/remebered her. But just to clarify . . . we never let our children play with lathes and we never let our children snack on cat poo! :lol:

On his body, did he have a shirt? Yeah, that's better :huh::huh::lol:

Well, he can come to my mom's. What's one more? He shouldn't be all that much trouble. After the big turkey dinner, I'm sure he'll curl up in the corner and take a nap.

I just don't understand how people can stay in and NOT go get some of the deals on Friday. I would go crazy. :blink:

Right now, I'm tormented... I can't decide whether to buy the boys Optimus Prime transformers for Christmas... they want them soooo bad, but some of the other Transformers they have fall apart all the time. It drives Ez crazy, and then he drives me crazy.

The new toys aren't well-made! :angry:

Believe me when I say . . . It is really easy for me to NOT go shopping the day after Thanksgiving. Plus, I like to have most everything done by then . . . otherwise, I get panicky that I'm not going to get it all done! This is the ONE thing that totally goes against my typically procrastinating nature.

It's after midnight . . . I'm turning into a pumpkin . . . GoodNight Sillies!

I have to work Friday so I will go out later in the evening. I love the Black Friday rush!

Gahhhhh...What a birthday party over here...beginning to clean up. I believe there were twenty of us (my brood, my two siblings and their grown kids, grandkids and three great-grandkids)...I have a SUPERB shot of my dad as...incredibly..himself. I had trouble remembering it was him. I kept looking at this old man, without a full beard and moustache, no long, flowing tresses or bright red lipstick, no body piercings or Cyrano de Bergerac nose, and thinking, "who IS that elderly gentleman?" I am trying to put this pic up as my avatar, but it keeps telling me that it's too big, even though it is no bigger than other ones I've used before. I'm trying to crop it...Grrrrrr... Carry on!

Not too great for me to miss!

I guess if I paid the bills I might have a different take on this .... but, trust me, it is NOT hard for me to stay in on Friday!

I'm glad the party was a good one, Emily! He went as himself? Are you sure it was really him?

a bigger heinosity, I cannot imagine. :lol: :lol:

Dude, I have seen $10 sheet sets all over the place, all year ...........and with a high, solid cotton thread count!!!!!!!!!! But........maybe you don't have Marshall's, TJMaxx, and Home Goods (the most glorious store of all)? and so one MUST arise at 3 and go shopping????

EMILY - sounds like the party was a great success!!!!!!!!! and yes, are you QUITE SURE that was your father???????????????

The yeti........well, he's still at Nik's, there will be a transatlantic flight involved here, does he have a passport? oh wait.........I don't think mythical creatures are required to carry such inanities...........

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

They said the Yeti could fly without a passport as long as he will entertain the other patrons on the flight. Does he know any pilgrim stories or Thanksgiving songs?

Can we dress him in colonial attire?

Somebody else can measure his inseam this time!

I'm wondering...there may be security issues with the yeti flying from Europe into the States. They may perhaps suspect that he is a terrorist in a large, furry costume. Our yeti is SO big, and Osama Bin Laden is about 6 foot 6...might they suspect? He'll be carrying no luggage, will be saying nothing...flags could well go up. Oh! What do you think the chances are of his name (or one very like it) being on the extensive no-fly list?! Perhaps there is a suspected terrorist named YETI, as well! Like, Momnar Yeti, or Yeti Bin Laden. Geez, all these things we have to think about now....

:lol: :lol: :lol: excellent.......someone's got to go with him to shop for the costume

Once he's gone through passport control it's out of my hands and frankly I can't stand long goodbyes...a yeti crying in public...the stares & looks :rolleyes:

OMG this is addicting - - - I got as high as - was it rollicking rabbit?

:lol::lol: Excellent!!!

Bobbing bobcat here (OMG sooo crap) ....but I ain't finished yet !!!!!

...and can I just say your 'Black Friday' sound heinous + evil and only for those with nerves of steel !!!

We do have Malls here in the UK - *mutters* EVIL.....In hell they make you go Christmas shopping ALL DAY, EVERYDAY.

So exhausting, makes my feet hurt....the queues, the people pushing and shoving, the heat .... <_<

Our big sales are after xmas on 'Boxing Day' (do you have this??) on the 26th...ugghh!!!

OH, and forgive my ignorance but WHAT are you peeps giving thanks for??? :unsure:

EDIT: Dutch Oven :lol:

CarlaB Enthusiast

I think the Yeti will get through just fine .... they're not allowed to profile and search based on looks, so they'll let him through just to prove they don't.

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor. 
    • knitty kitty
      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit. 
    • Scott Adams
      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."  
    • Scott Adams
      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
