That is an incredible amount of sugar in one place!

But, is it gluten-free? Inquiring minds want to know.

I get ill just thinking about it......and I'm not a diabetic! :P

Hello Sillies- I somehow went into hiding :huh:<_< Hmm...twas a long weekend here and there was Much Ado. Saturday was my BIL's birthday so everyone came over for barbequebusness and birthday cake. Then we had friends over Sunday for more grilling and yesterday was my niece's 6th birthday......busy, busy, busy.

I read a bit to catch up- sorry about all the injuries, perfumings, blisters, premenstrual nastiness and all other things.

I ain't got no silly in me. My one year anniversary of starting antibiotics is next week and I still feel Lymey. Thought it would be over by now :( .

OK- I do have some phunny in me..........have you guys seen Open Original Shared Link on Flickr? Oh...funny stuff!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of my favorites:

Ok- Found some funnies:

First Cut is the Deepest

Once upon a time, two little boys, Sammy and Tim, were sharing a room in the hospital. As they were getting to know each other a little bit, Sammy eventually asked Tim, "Hey, what're you in for?"

"I'm getting my tonsils out. I'm a little worried," said Tim.

"Oh, don't worry about it," Sammy said. "I had my tonsils out and it was a blast! I got to eat all the ice cream and Jell-O I wanted for two weeks!"

"Oh yeah?'' replied Tim. "That's not half-bad. So, Sammy, how about you? What're you here for?"

"I'm getting a circumcision, whatever that is," Sammy answered.

"Oh my god, circumcision? I got one of those when I was a baby and I couldn't walk for two years!"

or.....

Let's Talk

A guy was seated next to a 10-year-old girl on an airplane. Being bored, he turned to the girl and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."

The girl, who was reading a book, closed it slowly and said to the guy, "What would you like to talk about?"

Oh, I don't know," said the guy. "How about nuclear power?"

"OK," she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff... grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"

The guy thought about it and said, "Hmmm, I have no idea."

To which the girl replied, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know sh@*t?"

Hi, Julie and Bev! :):)

We were just wondering aloud about both of you last night...funny how it's so obvious when there's a silly or two missing for a couple of pages. Your absences are felt.....

Julie, it's been more than a couple of pages for you! Glad to hear you are okay...

Bev! A year on antibiotics? Man......Big Pharma luuurrrrves you, I'm afraid..... :(

Jess! How are Lefty, Max and Lyle, the Three Cabalieros?

You MUST try Bacardi Breezers (can you get them in the US?)

White rum mixed with fruit juice and sparkling water :P

No laboUr

Pleasant buzz

Um.......do we have those here? I want some! :P

Did you see "The Worst Summer Cocktail"? They said it is Pina Colata, but that the mo-hee-to is a much better choice! Thought that would be some good news for the Kisseys :D

:D Yes, good news for the Kisseys......they were mighty tasty last night! But 'twill be an infrequent treat, too much laboUr for so fleeting a pleasure..... :lol:

:lol: Indeed, and makes me wonder, are they in cahoots w/ Mr. Chow, somehow? Some sort of meditative tai chi?

BEV!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good funnies and - sounds like you are plum wore out from your weekend.... one year on abx?? :( this is heinous.......can't be long now, can it? You WILL be better soon!!!!!!!!!!! :)

and there's Julie.........oh honey - - knew you weren't well when we didn't see you for a while.....glad you're out of it now and you've come to play.

OMG that sugar drink - - could throw up just thinking about it :blink:

And speaking of sugar - Em and Peter - - my first cousin is a very severe diabetic (also w/ Crohn's, hashimoto's, and very definitely Celiac but won't remove gluten <_< ) anywho, Jean Marie has been severely afflicted w/ diabetes since - her teens, maybe? eats TONS of sugar, and just uses more insulin. what in hell? has an insulin pump on her body. Um, this girl has almost lost her foot from gangenous diabetic atrophy of some kind.....just nearly died of kidney failure...has gone into horrible near-diabetic comas and in hospital for long periods of time...but......doesn't really change her diet. Charming, darling girl.......always very, very sick......and was addicted to Bella Donna for about 30 years (opium, right?) that her dad prescribed for her because her stomach was always in so much pain. :huh: <shaking head> so - shouldn't she NOT eat sweets? <not that she would make any changes> It's very sad........I'm sure she'll not live long. Alas, 'tis another crazy relative that we don't talk to so......won't affect my life directly. :(

okay - back to silly - and yard work - and........................OMG carpet shampooing is coming up soon.......EGREGIOUS................................ :angry:

Julie and Boev are back!!! (my 2 favoUrite Lymies ;) ) with PHUNNIES!!!!!!!!

Susie - how tragic for your cousin ...but also interesting.

This at least proves that you have the 'auto-immune' gene thing floating around in your family.

Absolutely NOBODY in Terry's family (other than our Al) has :blink: ....I find this odd

Love Janet's video of the temper tantrum :lol:

Amanda - hope the antibiotics work soon!!

...SO tired <yawn> ...t'was a 6am start but that's normal.....I think I'm STILL recovering :rolleyes: <lazy slug sot>

Just TOO old to partay the night away :lol:

Glad you at least got this figured out, Amanda - - I remember you being concerned about breathing troubles during exercise....

Susie! It always breaks my heart to hear stories about people, especially young people, who refuse to take control of their diabetes and end up with all of the serious, but essentially unavoidable, complications like blindness, gangrene/amputation, kidney failure....how very sad. And she's on a pump? Gad, there is absolutely NO excuse - - the insulin pump makes things so much easier for those who have brittle control....

Wow. Not much more to say. King Diabetic Peter?.....

There isn't really anything I can add to what Emily said. It is sad to see something like that, and know what lies ahead. But she's in denial and there is really nothing anybody can do to force her to change.

Arrrrrggggh! The weather forecast for tonight contains the words "frost warning." :(

I know.....she won't do anything to change these things except - take steroids, maybe? is that the prescription? I don't know......we speak to her/see her once a year, on Thanksgiving. She's my age, so much fun, and we have so much in common........but she makes no effort with us and doesn't follow through. :( Has two kids, divorced, always sick, went through rehab at least twice for her painkiller addiction......great to hang out with but I can't emotionally invest, she shows up for a bit, then vanishes for.....a decade or so. :( Her husband is fighting for full custody and may get it.

Okay.....Kissey and I have had an argument. :o this is our second one, total. OMG - - OMG - - OMG. What is the world coming to? :lol: It stresses me out.........

Amanda - hope you get your sinus infection under control soon..........

OMGAWD- can't believe the temper tantrum video came to Sillyville- we have been talking about it all weekend. Saturday the "men" were playing bocci in the backyard when my 3 year old nephew Cooper walked out and went to grab one of the balls (my sis and I had just run out for ice cream). All the guys yelled, "Cooper, NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" and he started bawling his eyes out.

My sis and I return home and he is in his mum's arms doing much better. Takes one look at me and explodes again, "Auntie BEEEEVVVVVVVVVV". EVERYONE cracked up. Poor wee Cooper!!!!!! Too funny!

Bev & Julie - happy you guys could poop in . . . now we can stop speculating. Hope you're feeling better soon, Julie. And hope you quit feeling so lymey, Bev.

Ooh...what did you think Julie and I were doing? :o we do have a secret plan to vacation in Fiji once we both feel better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I absolutely hate that it's a whole year and you're still fighting the Lymmies :angry:

You and me both- I have to keep reminding myself that the reason I'm still doing battle is that I had it for a LONG time, but I also have 4 other tick-borne infections :(

I don't know about anybody else, but I don't leave my balls unprotected out in the yard where children can grab them. :ph34r: I would for sure be nuts to do that. :D

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed...

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
