Morning, All!

Hey, Amanda!! We have another early riser with us now! Good morning, JacquIe!

Good Morning fellow sillies. Yes I'm an early riser. The four legged fur kids usually don't allow me to sleep in on a day when I don't have to get up for that 4 letter word that we all dread doing. But I do enjoy going into that 4 letter word as it is fun when you get to be your own boss :)

Amanda sorry to hear you went into work, sorry that 4 letter word that we dread going to, on what was sounding like a sure fire snow day for you. I hope traffic was not to much of a problem for you.

Well we will be going into that 4 letter word that most people dread going into early today as we are leaving our new employee on her own to open for us. I hope everyone has a very silly day :)

BTW David Beckham in a speedo. Dread the thought! :lol:

I see POeter and JacquIe have checked in :D

Mornin sillies--yes, slow AM....I feel like crapola :angry: Nothing serious, just a yucky head cold. Caught it from Mark, who brought it home from the 4 letter word. <_<:P Sore throat and achiness enough to warrent Tylenol.

Like Amanda, we had snow here overnight--2-3 inches. It's subsided for now, but more is predicted for later this afternoon along with freezing rain.

I don't think you should say size=1 and Schwing in the same sentence (TMIA? Too Much Incidental Amusement?)

:lol:

YJust one of the many times my grandpa was instrumental in my edification. I'm only now beginning to realize how thankful I am for all of the "crazy" things he wanted us to learn about and more importantly appreciate. :wub:

:) he sounds wonderful........

Hmm, no we don't currently sell penis slings in the store. :o

Well then, is this not something you should consider? I mean, you really COULD have the market cornered on this....... :P

Another quiet morning in Sillyville. Maybe everybody is just dog tired from all the excitement this week.

:ph34r: oh you have nooOOOooOOOooooOoooo idea................ :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW David Beckham in a speedo. Dread the thought! :lol:

Have to say, I rather enjoyed it. Why, though, was he, um, "slinging" his package? :lol:

Sillies I am wayyyyyyyyyyy too tired. Too much giddiness and not enough sleep.

But I'm not complainin'................... B)

Patti sorry about your evil cold and that Mark brought it to you from that VERY bad four-letter word place..... :angry:

more later.............

OMG - did anyone watch LOST last night? I did declare last night, about halfway through, that I am well and officially DONE and BROKEN UP wif dat show. I could not guarantee, however, that I wouldn't peek from time to time........but.........what in hell? :blink: I decided that it was an incredibly useless hour of my life - -- pure and utter confusion with no pleasure whatsoever any longer........... :lol:

What the heck happened to my last post? :unsure: That is one bad quote job! :P

Anyway.......I did watch Lost last night, and I actually followed it better than last week. That twist at the end with Kate was a shocker, though. I'm hanging on, but it just better be one hell of a payoff at the end. This show is work to follow :lol:

You must have needed the sleep :)

I thought you worked late yesterday so you didn't have to go in today? They just called a snow emergency in our area....the snow has stopped for now, though.

Patti!!! Stop saying four-letter words! <_<

I have a short story for you all regarding DS's walk home from school yesterday. I am now finding it, for some reason, quite amusing...

Jack's got about a half-mile to walk, so yesterday he's all bundled up...parka, snow pants, hat and mitts. He leaves the school and starts off. Suddenly, he feels his nose start to run. Takes off a mitt and wipes it--it's a nosebleed.

So, he tells me that he immediately thought about returning to the school, but then decided that this would be a bad move because he'd get blood all over the floor, and "desks, and books and stuff" (this is my pragmatic young boy)....so, he continues to walk quickly, wiping his nose. Well, it begins pouring out. So he whips his hat off and holds it there. He begins running. There is blood pouring out, all over the snow, like a large red trail. He's streaking along, blood all down his coat. Cars begin to slow down. He manages to wave and smile a little, and continue running.

WELL..........He comes in the front door. I happen to be standing there. He's got dry and wet blood ALL OVER his face, all down the front of his jacket, mitts and hat. I scream. :o:o:o

We are laughing about this now, and Jack asked that I tell you guys this story. Soon he'll be gettin' a username, I tell you......

OMGawd--the poor thing :( I felt so bad for Jack as I was reading the story--but you know....such a thoughtful, level-headed young man to think the situation through and do what he felt was best. :)

Emily--I would have screamed too if one of my boys had come home from school all bloodied! I'm sure that was quite a shock at the time. Glad he's ok and you guys got a laugh out of it :D

PS--I keep meaning to tell you how much I love your kid's names :)

I think it's the international winter 'season' for young boys to have nose bleeds :blink: ..........my 13 yr old burst in the other day hands cupped under his nose shouting ''MUM!!!!!!...NOSEBLEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!''.....dripped it everywhere whilst I shouted at him to get to the bathroom

I must admit ....my first thought was that he'd got into a fight :rolleyes: (got a real short fuse that boy!)

:unsure: - he's had several the last few days and BOY does that blood go a long way <_<

Terry has man flu ....is of course dying :rolleyes: as I try to keep him (and his germs) at arms length!!!! :lol:

when I first saw Jack, I thought he'd had his head run over by a tractor-trailer. Gad.....

I don't have a big flipover imminent...why sudden copious bodily fluids? :huh:

Patti! Sorry you have a coldy thing... :( Get somebody to heat you up some chicken soup on that fab new stove....

OK Susie, now that the race is over, here is the return of the av that you missed.

I also feel compelled to mention, that I was somewhat . . . what's the right word . . . relieved to see a pic of David and Annie in your av. Now we know you & David didn't pull an Emily and use the photo from a new picure frame for his personal photo in his profile.

Well, now....Perhaps all these pics of my dad have been just that....out of new photo frames from Walmart. Not my dad at all, just some New-Frame-Head-Model. Mygawd....I would be SO buying those frames... :lol::lol:

Y'know, I wonder about all those discard pics I've put in those Walmart frames, of my forehead, or of the floor....who, if anyone, has bought those frames? Have they kept my pics? Maybe I'll start a revolution, where people see these frames, get what I've done, and begin to place their own crappy photos in store frames. These frame departments could become like exhibits...... :lol:

I can picture it now . . . Emily is shopping in the frame department. Over the loud speaker all the customers hear . . . Code 52 in the frame department . . . security rushes to the find Emily swapping photos . . . "Lady, how many times do we have to tell you? You can't keep comin' in here and dumpin' your lousy pictures in our new frames. The other customers won't buy the frame once you've put a picture of your toenail in it."

      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...

      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 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?

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 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.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
