Can't remember where I read this, but,

Canada had a contest to create a new phrase similar to the American phrase "As American as Apple Pie". The winner (at least in the author's eyes) was "As Canadian as possible under the circumstances".

My other fave was the brit proposed slogan for England - "No slogan please, we're British".

Tell 'em Hurricane Janet wiped (no pun intended .. . ..REALLY!) out their cozy abode. Then proceed to discuss the role of gov't, the need for taxation, FEMA etc.

Maybe next week, when one fails to adequately handle some sort of mess, the other will say "yer doin' a heck of a job, Brownie".

Can't let you have all the fun scaring away the timid.

Gads, trying to understand principle component analysis and Eigen vectors. I'm pretty sure if you place the word "theoretical" in front of any subject, that subject should be considered only "theoretically" important. (As in, "I'm theoretically working today").

Sorry, babbling. Brain wearing out.

Gawd.... so this week it was Ezra's turn for a check-up, and he had 4 immunizations Tuesday. Yesterday he woke up with a badly swollen leg, red lump a little smaller than the diameter of a baseball. This morning it was TWICE that size, and growing. :(

They'd told me to expect some redness and swelling in that leg from the tetanus shot, but when it got to where his whole thigh was one big, hot, red lump from top to knee... I was like, This is a bit extreme. Called the doctor. Of course, they said to come in immediately.

His poor little leg is at least twice its normal size. When we were at the doctor's office, hanging out in the hallway talking to the doctor, a group of nurses and receptionists gradually gathered around to gape in amazement at his leg. He loved that, of course! He kept yanking the leg of his shorts up so everyone could get the full view... "Look!!! I got SHOT!" No, no, no honey, that's where you got *A* shot.

He's going to be on Benedryl and Prednisone for a few days. As Ezra was enthusiastically skipping around behind me, singing the Spiderman theme, the pharmacist says, "This stuff might hype him up a little..." She pauses... and then bursts out laughing. I just shook my head. "You got anything back there to help me keep up with him???" :rolleyes:

Our doc is starting to think we may want Ez to see an allergist... Which I agree with. Especially now that I've got the state insurance for the kids for at least a year... now is the time to do it if we're gonna do it.

Darn210 Enthusiast

Oh my Goodness Sarah!!!! Poor Ez . . . at least it doesn't seem to be bothering him too much. When my son was on prednisone and bouncing off the walls at the docs office once, I mentioned in passing to another mother that he was going to survive the illness but I was going to have to kill him because of his behavioUr. She remarked "that's how I feel when my kids are on steriods" . . . and she didn't even know he was on it . . . :lol::lol: Yep, get that boy to the allergist, stat!!! It took me two months to get in to see one so make an appointment soon!!!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

OMG-Sarah so sorry to hear about Ezra's leg....poor kid. Any better yet?

jerseyangel Proficient

Gawd Sarah--how awful! At least Ez isn't too fazed by the whole thing.

An allergist sounds like an excellent idea ;)

elye Community Regular

Sarah!! That poor kid a' your'n! heavens - - leg like a tree trunk....Gawd. At least he was not frightened (as you were, I'm sure!)

Hope the Benedryl takes hold fast...I gave Jack some last week for a bad skin reaction to an oral allergy med he started, and it was much better very quickly - - like within the hour. :)

Alas, no more, now I'm writing a skit for the cub scout meeting tonight . . . boo - hiss . . . would totally get in trouble if I added my own humoUr to it.

Oh!! Janet - - just print off the last fifty pages of this thread, and voila! Ya got yer play...complete with an ensemble cast, plot twists and turns, catharsis, tragedy and comedic relief...dogs (they love the pet thing), left and right-handedness, discussions about neighboUrs, different cultures....oh, wait.....Jess the dominatrix.......Hmmmmmm....

Hmmmm . . . yes, this could be a good way of getting out of being assistant den leader next year . . . problem is, they're are NOT the best readers. Just think of how they would try to pronounce all those different spellings of Tghawm.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep.  One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem.  Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read, do a sudoku or some other small task, and then go back to bed when she felt sleepy again.  I can't think it did her any harm - she lived  well into her nineties. Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!
