Another Canadian in SillyVille. :blink: I did not know there were three of us! And all three of us both celiac and diabetid. OMG! We better check the Yeti's citizenship. If he's also a Canadian, he may need to be tested for celiac disease and diabetes. Can you give insulin to a Yeti?

MYgawd....Peter, you may be onto something. He has looked rather...vacant...at times, and certainly irritable. He looks thinner, as well. Hyperglycemia? Great, I can see it now...I've been the token inseam-measurer, next I'll be the insulin-injector. I WANT DANGER PAY FOR THIS!

Beautiful new av, Carla!

Did you hear... Winnipeg is making a new bra? All support no cup!!

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

You Saskatchewan fans are incredible!! Your insane spirit is something to be marvelled at. Toronto never knew what hit them... :lol:

Carry on, goofballs. I shall check in when I have retrieved my mojo or whatever 'tis that I've lost.

Poor Susie...hope you feel better toute de suite. We'll help you retrieve your mojo...just give us a page or two...! ;)

:lol: Joyful!...Funny biblical anecdotes!....boy, am I out of my league...

Didn't someone have a problem with the yeti weeing inappropriately? Diabetes explains everything. We minght end up with a much more well behaved, agreeable yeti!

We'll have to carefully calculate the dose for him -- we certainly don't wanting a belligerent hypoglycemic yeti on our hands. And certainly a Yeti seizure would be dangerous for all involved.

How's THAT for philosophical syllogisms 101? :lol:

"syllogisms" :lol:

I was in an accident on the freeway last night!!

:o Oh Tom--I'm so glad you're ok. That happened to me on my way to work a few years ago--I was stopped at a stopsign, and the guy behind me smacked right into me. He said his foot slipped off the brake pedal <_< ...anyway, there was no damage to my car, either, and I was about to be late so that was that.

This is for a kid's school project ... if you see this tonight, what kind of pie do you like?

I know it's too late, but I hate to be left out :lol: . So, it's pecan. (your new pic is cute :D )

And all three of us both celiac and diabetid.

That's interesting...I knew that about all of you, but never really put it together.

Did you hear... Winnipeg is making a new bra? All support no cup!!

Lisa!!!! Popping into sillyville with a sillie :D How've ya been?

Just the most furtive and quiet little halloooo from dingy here. Been quite a week, and I'm not sure if I"ve lost my mojo or just my sense of humoUr, or both?????????????? ZOIGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You poor thing :( It's been one thing after another for you lately. I hope the mojo is back in working order soon. :)

p.s. did I mention they cut down "my" whole thicket of eucalpytus trees? heinosity upon heinosity.
:(:angry:

In the video...

The video cuts to my boyfriend and my sister talking.

BF: For you, I would work seven years. And then, I would work seven more years for your sister.

S: *awkward look* :huh:

If you don't recognize it, google the story of Jacob, Rachel, and Leah.

I've only had pecan pie once in my life, but it was really good.

I just love pumpkin everything. I used to live near a little ice cream shop that had pumpkin custard ice cream... I would have them make me a milkshake out of it, and it was sooooooo good!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I love chocolate peanut butter milkshakes....maybe I will make one tonight.

Gad....can you imagine the size of the glucagon injection he'd need? Goes by weight... :o

And BTW, who's gonna test his blood six times a day? Where would you draw from? Too much hair everywhere....perhaps his nose?

Blech pecan pie!

Another Blech!

It barely even seems like it deserves to be CALLED pie to ME!

It's a shame the whole Yeti-as-courier won't work out.

I think Fresno's airport is his next stop, and I'd wondered whether he may be able to bring a big box o' EastCoast Mojo w/ him. (Would enough fit in a carry-on bag?)

Of course I'm assuming Patti would volunteer to shorten her stewardship & dispatch him 'toot sweet' <_<:P:lol: (a 3rd way to say it!)

<or just a comPLETEly inadequate rendition?>

What with how often Susie offers to "Send the Dingos!", certainly my woeful tale of 'A Shelf Too High' (hehe saw 'a bridge too far' again recently) takes a backseat.

Yippee for Friday!!!!!!

(As if it's any different to ME! My main difference betw, say, a Tuesday & a Saturday is that the sports start in the morning on Sat)

Just got an offer for Sharks (NHL) game in a luxury suite for tonight, but have plans to see a jazz guitarist who's a friend of a friend. And it's just a few blocks down woohoo! (Actually the SharkTank, 'hp pavilion' is walkable too, tho in my state I'd highly prefer biking it)

The guitarist is at a wine bar ( Open Original Shared Link ) called A Perfect Finish. I'm hoping to snag one of the oversized chairs in the corner. ;)

Any wine recommendations???

<tom's still not convinced he can be a wine drinker :( >

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I had this very nice Raspberry wine once, I forgot the name though :)

Tom is absolutely right--the Yeti will be on his way to Ca in the morning! This means, of course, that he will miss the party at Bev's for her niece, but I think the kids will have just as good a time. He may have scared a few of them anyway :P

I'm thinking that the bumbling antics of our large, furry friend will help put Susie's mojo back in business. He'll remind her of all of us! (and that's a good thing....right :unsure: ).....of COURSE it is :lol:

How can anyone not like pecan pie :o:huh::D

The main difference to me (being a stay at home Mum) is that I don't have to get up while it's still dark - a lay in......sheer bliss.

YIPEE for Saturdays!!!!!!!!!

It's a shame he'll miss Bev's niece's birthday party - but needs must.

He can shampoo Susie's carpet (after the Stinker 'trod poo all over' incident)..maybe even take 'the girls' for their walk?

Ha--he's bound to shake em up! :lol:

I think Susie's girls will love him--like Nikki said--he can take them for their walks and help around the house. He'll be like a big, fuzzy Dingo Nanny :D

Heehee it takes an easterner to refer to Fresno using the word Coast! :P:lol:

Uh-oh! Maybe I jumped the gun! He may have a connecting flight thru LAX or SFO, before the FUN.

:o

OGM - Yeti, here, to my house?

(looks around at small messes to clean up)

:unsure:

Oh I don't think this is a good weekend for him to come............

Well, I suppose we'll manage. I can always use a break from the dingo-walking and picking up the, um, deposits and bunches of sod they leave....better put fresh sheets on the bed and clean his bathroom. We havne't a hottub here, he'll have to use the guest shower............

oh, AND I'll be sending Yeti over to see the people who cut down the trees.

MOO-HOO-HOOOO-HAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAA-HAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry::lol:

Um, Tom, BTW, West Coast DOES include central valley. Doesn't just mean beach towns.....when I say East Coast I could be referring to Boston, w. Virginia, New York, anywhere.......

:lol: Patti. Big, Fuzzy Dingo Nanny. :lol: Yes, Stinker's teeth WILL be a-chattering, but I think Annie will take to him nicely - she loves everybody.

jerseyangel Proficient

Hi Susie!!! :D

So good to have you back--and get ready 'cuz he's on the way.

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you 
    • Colleen H
      Anyone else get pins and needles. ??? Burning feeling ? Heat makes it so much worse 😔  Winter is here.  I had to lower my thermostat because I couldn't take that hot air feeling 😔  Hopefully it goes away soon

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease". 
    • trents
      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.
    • trents
      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
