:lol: :lol: We're actually going to have to get quite detailed in our discussions on sauce, cuz I"m not totally comprehending..... :blink:

Hehe I do find a blanket anti-sauce stance amusing but have discovered it doesn't have the comedic potential I'd anticipated.

It still feels like it should be funny! :wacko:

Tis NOT cig time!!!!!!!!!!! Just.......try.........and.........resist.......until 10. It's only half an hour away!!!!!!!!!

Yeahhhh I was probably also wrong about the 10 o'clock thing . .. . :D

Tho it DOES feel like I got over the 1st hump.

Today really only became THE day cuz I didn't want to go buy any.

*I'M* still surprised. :o

I can't control that part that cries out "Cigtime!", but I think I'll be able to keep disobeying it.

It'll stop crying out by Friday. :)

Hey, what about that heinous book that's supposed to cure EVERYone from smoking? what is that book? will look it up......I have heard celebrities discuss it, and how heinous it was, but effective.......

There's a BOOK????!!!!! :angry: :angry:

AHOY SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (ahoy? :blink: )

I have neglected you but I'M BACK :D

Ok,......the article about A's trip to Orlando in my local paper is Open Original Shared Link (A is next to Mayor in Red hat & blue T-shirt) :D

T'was rather chilly in Orlando yesterday (yes! Mummy checks the temp everyday :ph34r: )...did he have his warm fleece on?? :unsure:

I find myself constantly counting back 5 hrs thinking 'what's he doing now?' :rolleyes:

NEEAAAARRRRRGGGGG !!!!!! :blink:

Driving myself insane :lol:

GADS..it's doing wonders for my diet - lost 4 pounds this week!! ...or is that loss of brain mass?? :lol:

I am very encouraged by Phathorgmn's & Sarah's efforts (Oh no!! a Sinus transplant needed??? )

Call the CS number on the bill and explain that you forgot since it was a new account and sweetly ask if they would waive the late fee this one time. It's worth a shot--many times they will if it's the first time ;)

<snort>

Patti is clearly the master ducker and diver of all creditors ;)

If he finds his way home, don't sleep with him.

GAHHH!!!!

I salute Uncle Ray!! :lol:

I'm so far just a smoker who isn't smoking.

Fa- tormh........I will always be this

One day at a time - a bit like AA......'Today' I will NOT smoke ;)

OK - the sauce debate.

I myself don't like 'wet' food much.....prefer crispy toppings to soggy sauces :blink: .....but not as fussy as Kissey :lol:

Good Morning, Sillies!

Well, yesterday afternoon my DD got her new retainer fitted...I can now barely understand what she's saying. This morning, I hear: "Gab yoo bib me a bripe do shloo?", and I stare at her, like this :huh: . Then she looks at me like this :angry: , and repeats it. I'm like this :wacko: . Finally, I decipher things ("Can you drive me to school?"), and look like this :rolleyes: .

OMG.....she's wearing this hardware 24/7 for how many months?!

You know there is a way to tell, right???? Have somebody ring your doorbell. If you start clucking like a chicken, then you were hypnotized!!!!

:lol::lol:

How did you end up faring through the night, Ptaumn? I would think that the first day (or two, or three) is the toughest....I believe there is a Dummies book for quitting, and many of them are known for good, solid advice. YOU CAN DO THIS, PTAOUMEAUS!! :):)

Ok,......the article about A's trip to Orlando in my local paper is Open Original Shared Link (A is next to Mayor in Red hat & blue T-shirt)

YAY!! Great piece in the paper, Nikki! Jeez, perhaps if I could send both of my kids off to some faraway place, I'd be good for eight pounds.... <_<

OK - the sauce debate.

Just got some exciting/nice/panicking news to share . . .

A while back, I started a topic on what a sweetheart our school nurse is. Well, last fall, the local paper did it's yearly "nominate the best nurse" campaign (any kind of nurse, not just school). There was a drive at our school to send in letters of nomination for our nurse. I have now been informed that our nurse won "something". She is one of six nurses invited to be honoUred at a banquet. She is allowed to invited 9 guests to fill her table of ten. Her husband, son, and daughter are going. The school district superintendant and the principal are going. And four moms who wrote the best (read "made the selection committee cry") nomination letters (there were about 65 sent in for our gal). So . . . I've been invited to go. I've also been informed that I might be asked to speak . . . :panicfacewhatcanyourhypnotherapistdoformetom?:

Gotta figger out what you're gonna say.

You could start off with something like, "Well, everybody, I want to tell you all how terrific Nurse _____ has been in our school experience, but first, let me ask you something about suction cups and metal cleats".....you know--just to warm them up a bit...... :rolleyes::lol:

:lol: Retainer induced speech impediment! It will get better. Somehow her tongue will just adjust and she'll be talking like normal in no time. Although she may find she needs to take it out for French class. I was still seeing a speech language pathologist for a mild stutter when I got my retainer and she told me I could read aloud to myself to quicken my tongue's adaption. Even without that I bet she'll be talking pretty much normal within a week.

Nikki --- very neat article about your son's big trip. Has he hit Magic Kingdom yet? I bet you can't wait to hear all about it right from him when he gets back!

Hmmm! I exPECT to feel like a non-smoker pretty soon.

Not today tho - still a smoker who just isn't smoking.

It still feels like "time to light up" every few minutes.

But that's more from the Habit side.

I'm surprised I'm not feeling cravings.

No gum, no patch .. . ..did the hypnotherapy do this??? :huh:

I've always heard 3 for the physical addiction to subside.

It's remarkaby easy so far.

Starting the all-out strict anti-candida diet was a LOT harder!!!!!

I'll tell ya what else is surprising - I expected to be a little grouchy about it. But it's all smiles'n'giggles 'round here. :lol:

I *do* still have that one part of the brain calling out "CIGTIME!" quite regularly, and some other part chiming in about the habitual ones - just took a lil walk & of course I used to ALWAYS light up once I hit the sidewalk. (I do love my triple-wide sidewalks :P )

It really hasn't been hard at all to resist .. . .now it seems 'resist' is too strong a word.

I don't see any serious obstacles from here on out. :) :) ;)

(Better not have just jinxed myself!!!)

YAY!! Great piece in the paper, Nikki! Jeez, perhaps if I could send both of my kids off to some faraway place, I'd be good for eight pounds.... <_<

I like "good for eight pounds" as a song title.

I'd been pondering the suction cup vs. metal cleats shoe question and kept going back and forth. But earlier today, when I took Orwell for a walk, I accidentally stepped on his little paw. He let out the most heartbreaking little yelp -- I almost wanted to cry. So no metal cleats for me, for health and safety purposes. I'm not sure dog ownership is for me if every little yelp and whimper makes my heart hurt. And on that note, what about kids. How can you deal with seeing your kids hurt or sick? Doesn't it just make your heart hurt TOO MUCH??? Jack's big shoe question has got me thinking of some other big questions. :huh:

OMG - - I am quite sure that THIS is why God has not allowed me to marry and have kids, cause if I marry now, it'll be too late. mygawd.........even when I took Annie for her teeth cleaning I was a TOTAL mess. And after they've had surgery, with a deep, stitched gash or something - tumoUr removal, whatever - I practically need to be sedated. :huh: I don't know how parents can be parents and just function in the world.....send the kids off to school and stuff like that.........you jsut have to have massive trust and let it all go.

Watchign my Stinker go through her chemo treatments - - OMG. She was the most stoic and noble dog....sat in their completely silently, watching everything going on around her, her beautiful and solemn brown eyes taking it all in as she sat w/ an IV in her arm for up to half a day while other whiny baby dogs screeched and yelped. :( I wasn't really allowed back there....but we had to go every week for a while......it nearly did me in, FAR harder on the mommy than the dog.

ohhhhhhhhhhhh I miss my beautiful girl.........her quizzical smile, head tilt, bright, inordinately intelligent eyes and anticipatory, gentle (or spiral/helicopter) tail wag for just about anything......even in her most weakened state. *sniff* :( What a girl she was.

OMG - yes, IS Tom absinthed, with all his giggling? :lol: and NO massive desire to smoke!!!!!!! OMG! that is fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and speaking of Absinthe - I finished off the last of our bottle last night. Never once saw the phaerie. :angry: Alas, spilled most of the last glass all over coffee table, which resulted in a frantic and mad cleaning and oiling the table last night. This all happened whilst Kissey was, er, indisposed (you'd think he's celiac w/ all his bathroom time) and, when he came out, it was all cleaned up, so I denied it. The huge waft of anise in the air, my amused shrieking and the piles of rags rather gave me away...... :lol:

SArah, YES! a hypnotherapist!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

mygawd, stomach is quite upset today and there's really stinky suspicious poop. Is it the big pot of chili? zoigs. I loved it. :(

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana
