Always amazed at how much I miss over the weekend. Here in Seattle it's dark and has been pouring rain since yesterday. My driveway is three inches of standing water. My dirt/gravel driveway....

The weather is very cold and windy here...we went out for lunch and it was cold the whole way there, and we ate at this old hotel and it was not warm inside at all....I am still cold 2 hrs later.

Yesterday I made homemade soup for dinner and that is dinner tonight. I am looking forward to cuddling with my cat underneath a blanket and vegging the rest of the night. :)

That's great :D

Closet gets done today!!!!!!!

Does that mean the funky closet lady comes back again?

I will try to get a few pictures scanned in today and into a new avatar :):):) It is so exciting looking at them, there are things I don't remember from that day already, it was a big blur. It will be nice when the DVD is done so I can really see what it was all like. :)

Congratulations Tom - you wanted to be Lord Tom, right? Earl of Silly? Duke of Mirth?

Here's another Grandpa story:

Grandpa went to a farm show and bought an electric chicken-picker . . . that would be the latest and greatest technology for taking the feathers off of a (dead) chicken. Grandma was majorly PO'd because they didn't have electricity yet - and it was over a year before they did. On a side note, the chicken-picker still works.

Informal Poll: How many here have ever dressed a chicken? (For all you city types, that means take all the feathers off, not dress it in cute designer outfits and put it in a purse to carry with you.)

OMG I'm actually tearing up a bit from the laughter at my misreading it at first as

"How many here have ever dressed AS a chicken? "

:lol: :lol: :lol:

So I'm imagining what a chicken-suit would require and that the elastic used to keep a beak in place could get uncomfortable.

:lol::lol:

Would love to see more pics from the wedding--your current avatar is beautiful! My wedding day was a blur, too. There were so many little things I actually forgot until the pictures came back.

No, no closet lady! The installers (2 guys) are in there now doing their thing. I can't wait to put everything away once and for all--we have clothes all over the bedroom and on the dining room table. Ugh :angry:

All hail the new King!! :D

I've never dressed a chicken (God forbid :lol: ), but my dad tells me that his mother used to. She would actually wring it's neck and then dress it. I'm way too much of a wuss for that :P

I never really knew her, she passed away when I was 4.

Ummmm . . . now that you've gone and done it . . . and can't take it back . . . just wanted to let you know that you are NOT inheriting a crown and sceptor. You are indeed inheriting a chicken costume. Yes, complete with beak. Did you think it was that uncomfortable, Amanda?

Emporer Thomas I! How interesting that we have two kings now. I'm certain that in the history of the world, this has never happened before within a monarchy. Literally anything can, and does, happen here...

Did you guys here the news? MC Hammer is suing the Chicken Butt Cooties. He said their song "Can't Pluck This" is copyright infringement. I think he's grasping at straws . . . just needs the money.

When I read your line I just had the funniest picture in my head....chickens dancing in their own music video with baggy pants on with loud 80's colors singing Can't Pluck This!!!

Hey! I'm a long-time subscriber! I cannot believe I've found a fellow GGQ follower! I love the puzzle page, the "find the missing modifiers" and my particular favorite, "unscramble the participial phrases". What fun! And that latest centrefold in the faUll issue!...it was a detailed shot of a split infinitive clearly dominating a subordinate clause...I cannot leave any issues lying around the house, as I've got two kids. :lol::lol:

Ptaum said verilarious... :lol:

:o igetachickencostumeigetachickencostumeigetachickencostume!!!!!!!!! :D:o :o

We really should spring for a new beak.

Some of the new Finnish ones have TWO or MORE types of foam padding and can practically be custom contoured!

But no need to get the one w/ the satellite radio options cuz I'm just NOT paying for radio!! AM/FM will be fine. :P

      Son's legs shaking

      Hi, My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine...

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
