You could always duct tape it to your arm...

Lefty is a smart cat. Whenever I come around the corner to the kitchen he comes racing out, as if he knows he's doing something he aughten'ed (sp?) and doesn't want to get caught. Comes up, stands and puts his paws on my thigh asking to be picked up.

Oh this Indianan says "dawned on me" also . . . she just doesn't spell it right . . . and thank you veddy much for going on and on and on about it so that I will wince everytime you mention it.

Just thinkin'.....Nikki must be havin' a rip-snortin' birthday! :D (at least I hope she is!)

Or still recovering from her BBQ . . .

Neighbors had a get-together last night. Five families total . . . 10 adults and 13 8/9 kids. It was a talent show/pizza party/baby shower (hence the 8/9 kid). Quite helarryus. (Mental note to self . . . really stay on top of school work as my kids have no particular "entertainment type talent" and will need to rely on a good job to make a living.)

Actually Lefty has his right eye. And Susie's right boob was spared...

Darn210 Enthusiast

. . . and lest I forget . . .

A big silly welcome to Max and Lefty. Probably best that they did not come as a "pair", less likely that they'll gang up on Lyle. I'm sure they'll settle in pHairly quickly.

SEE? it's true.......we're psilly and phunny and crazy like dat........so glad yer stickin' around, goof!!!! :P

I think I am right on the fence as to whether I really need to wear a bra...I think mine are big enough to warrant such a thing. But Susie, why do you wear one if it's not needed? They're such uncomfortable, HEINOUS contraptions....bah.......

bras are mainly only worn for WHITE shirts.......not really needed for any support sort of way. Bah! <_<

fluids so far are drool and snot.

:lol:

Yay for the kitties having a new home!!!! Yay for Jess taking them both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So pleased all around! And a big, wackl welcome to Max and Lefty............... :D

Em - love yer new av and your standards, there!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually Lefty has his right eye. And Susie's right boob was spared...

Here's yer birthday clown, Nikki!

:o OMG Em - how in hell DID you do that wondrous clown???????????????? Just so fantastic....

where IS our silly Brit? is she so hungover, no energy/strength for a poop-in? is she still drinkin' moe-hee-toes?????????

NICOLA???!!!!!!!!!!!!! come back to us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(must get Ptaum to use his mighty summoning powers)

Janet - - what is this 13 8/9 kids........... :blink: Do you mean there were 13 8 and 9 year olds? All with talent, except your'n? oh this can't be true...........shur-leigh they are sillier than all the rest, combined........ :lol:

Well sillies.................quite the perfect, fabulous weekend.........raining, both days so far......clouds, cold, damp and requiring blankets............could NOT be happier - - rain on Sunday.........my favorite-est thing of all................ :rolleyes:

Over to Kissey's now for a barbecue.........

But first -

so - Mommy did the dumbest thing.........got this skirt on ebay because, well, I am obsessed with ikat fabric. So............bought this skirt in size 22W (that is huge, BTW) thinking I'd cut it apart and make a new skirt for this upcoming wedding. Oh, it was goign to be so chic. (let me just mention - I don't/can't read patterns, and I am a heinous seamstress........but still, I do try :lol: :lol: - 'tis funny and my sewing has been labeled as pure savagery, one must not really inspect the details.)

So the skirt arrived yesterday, adn today whilst watching movies w/ Kissey I decided to tackle the cutting apart of it, seam-ripper in hand.......well guess what - - it's not all one piece........'tis a gored skirt, in all these small segments, making another skirt impossible. :blink: <complete waste of $20, is what this is <_< >

so I cut it apart, announcing that I am DETERMINED to find a use for these remnants, such as, the flaaaaaaaaaaaahhhnnnnnnge for pillows er sumfin'............. at that moment I wrapped the fabric around Weezee's little dingo head.............and here's her pained photo :lol: :lol:

Kissey's fabric-wrapped head to be up for viewing at a later time...........

:lol: :lol:

Happy weekend to all sillies, here, and north of here and abroad!!!!! :)

Oh Susie, I know you do not care for the MathS, but you don't even recognize a fraction when you see it?? Plus the added "baby shower" clue? . . . One of the attending neighbors is 8 months pregnant . . . :lol::lol:

Poor WeeZee . . . :lol::lol: . . . it does bring out the blue in her eyes, though.

Emily, you have quite the dashing doggie duo.

Jhahnoet, I must kindly advise you NOT to use fractions, on the weekends, or ever, please. :lol: :lol: And no CLUES either, please jsut speak quite directly and slowly when working with numbers, thank yew. :lol:

DingoGirl Enthusiast

....oh and also, Janet, may I comment on how very phunny I find your very precise accounting of the actual number of humans and foetuses at the party. This is an entirely phoreign concept to me........calculating the number of people at an event.....but you've clearly got this down with precision, even down to the fraction. :lol: :lol:

I would report it as............... "I dunno..........a few adults were there and...........a buttload of kids..... " :lol: :lol:

bye sillies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

p.s. I am now officially nominating Giahnet to take the minutes - is that what they call it? :lol: :lol: - at all silly summits. :D

Mygawd...Susie! Annie looks like a Middle Eastern dog, in a mandatory hijab.

Hmmmm...wonder if female dogs in Iraq and Afghanistan must wear this headgear.... :rolleyes:

DH is coaching the Ripper's baseball team this season, and he recruited me for tonight's game as third base coach. Very entertaining - - boy, can I make a game one nail-biting and edge-of-yer seat experience....See, I take great risks, and bring this to any position into which I'm thrown relegated. So, I'm confidentally waving players toward me from second on a little infield blip, and shouting for them to continue home as they round third on a short pop-up. So funny...their faces (and those of their parents, I am certain), are like this :huh: .

Well......we WON 14 to 4. All that aggressive coaching..... :lol:

I overheard one of the boys say to another as he came off the field, "That lady on third, tellin' us what to do.....she's NUTS!"

Jack looks over and, rolling his eyes, says, "It's my mom. I know"......

OMG....must go....there is a tribute to the GSAL (Greatest Singer of All Time), Ol' Blue Eyes, on the movie channel...... :)

Hehehe I thought the same at 1st, wondering how odd that so many are that age, THEN I READ ON!! :lol:

There's a "baby shower (hence the 8/9)" in there! :P

Well sillies.................quite the perfect, fabulous weekend.........raining, both days so far......clouds, cold, damp and requiring blankets............could NOT be happier - - rain on Sunday.........my favorite-est thing of all................ :rolleyes:

Such a peculiar dingo.

Good Morning, Sillies!

Oh! A superb birthday for Nikki...this is grand. :):) A nice, intense hangover fully installed.... :lol:

Em's poodles look downright Regal!

:lol::lol:

They look something...Drugged? Restful? Actually, they are in three-quarter view...almost a profile. I think those visages could be on a coin. :huh::lol: Yes, the newest entry into Canada's already coin-laden currency...Queen Liz in her spot on one side, and NO! Not an Inuit sculpture, or moose, or Houses of Parliament, on the other - - but a Regal Poodle Head.

I dunno WHAT's wrong w/ me today. Sooooooo tired & slowwwwww. Is it yesterday's failed popcorn test? No major immed issue but weirdness like scalp felt REALLY tight.

Ptaoughmhmn!! Um....how do you fail a popcorn test? Must you count the number of kernels in a huge jar? Must you pass a cup of unpopped kernels within a couple of hours? Keep none from sticking between yer teef? (Ugh, I'd fail that one, fo sho')... Is it MATHS of some sort?! Gahhhhhhhhhhh..... <_<:lol:

Jess!!! New av of your new family, please!!

Darn210 Enthusiast

Well, I don't think you get to say anything about the pants jockey's since you've got an av of a pig using a bat to cover his unmentionables!! :lol::lol:

Me mum used to celebrate anniversaries of her 39th birthday. I don't mind telling people how old I am, I just can't remember and have to stop and do the mathS.

jerseyangel Proficient
but wait :unsure: .......was I really singing ''I will survive'' at the top of my voice prancing round the living room..??? :huh:

Well, I certainly hope so! :lol: Sounds like you had a heck of a great day (the parts you remember, anyway!) :D

Ehemilley and Soosie--I keep meaning to say that your new avs are so cute! Em--your poodles could be posing to be on currency--very regal :D Li' Weezie has a "Carmen Meranda" thing going on--and isn't quite sure about the whole thing! The blue does bring out her eyes, though :P

This has been the most incredible weekend--perfect weather, one son came to visit (wonderful surprise) and the other home safe and sound. Another room painted. Life is good :rolleyes::D

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
    • trents
      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.
    • Ello
      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response. 
    • trents
      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
