Hi Psillies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I have been AWOL (tired, Swedish houseguests staying longer)- not that anyone was yodeling for me! :P:(

I've decided that my Edna goal is to weigh what I put on my driver's license by my birthday. This, of course, raises other issues such as: What do I put on my driver's license? What I think I can con people into believing?

What I want to weigh next year?

Anything I want cause no one ever looks anyway?

That is AWFUL- move to Massachusetts. But maybe after you get rid of the heinous fibroids it will have a favorable effect on ze weigt you vish to loose (I think I am getting a Svedish accent- they call John "Yawn" :lol: :lol: But seriously- I really hope you feel better :wub: :wub:

Toothless!!! . . . and with Man-boobs!!!

:lol: :lol:

Good morning, everyone.

I'm anxiously awaiting pictures too.

Peter wants to see the boobage :o:huh:

This is getting on me last nerve :angry:

Patti, why do I have a hard time imagining this? You seem like you have the patience of Mother Teresa!!

Apparently you and Emily's bosoms are waaaaaaay too big and must be reduced to fit into the av.

janet :lol: :lol: Again!

Well, bad fibroid week continues. I would NOT recommend the rapid blood loss Edna, she is much to inconvenient. I got so freaked out on Friday that I actually talked to my boss about my period :ph34r: (He's an MD, a pulmonologist, specifically) Gads.

Got an IV infusion of premarin Friday afternoon and it does seem to have slowed things down considerably, but my brain is toast. I turned the news on and am having a hard time following it. How lame is that.

As soon as the sun hits my (beautifully clean) swing I'm going out to lounge about. You are, therefor forbidden to put up rapid fire avs of the silly summit. Wouldn't want to miss photos of the summit of the century.

Oh Jess- like I said, feel better soon!

Gah- I'm so tired. I'm enjoying Kurt's cousins being here but I seem to now need 2 naps a day. Next Tuesday everyone (including Kurt) is OUTTA here (he's going to SF for a week) and I am going to sleep and then have a party. Everyone- next Saturday 7 pm. Wear your pj's (yes- Ptaum and Peter- you must wear pj's too). We're having a Psilly Psleepover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, just googled - 'hurdy gurdy' is a Scandinavian type of fiddle :huh:

.....but you have to say it with a (faux) Swedish accent which (I find) is great fun :lol:

When abroad in sunny/hot climes at beach resorts 'The English' call all those of Scandinavian descent 'Hurdy Gerdy's' :wacko:

I am most ( I must confess) wackl today :ph34r:

He is sweet :D

He has settled in...eating loads (he was a rescue kitty..and was very skinny :( ) but doesn't like to be stroked <_< ....he backs off if you try to touch him........so we try to ignore him as much as possible until he's comfortable with us.

I wake up in the morning though and he's next to me on the bed :D - I think he likes the body heat

.....wait :unsure: .......am *I* rambling on like an old cat lady??? :blink::lol:

"Mom... why did you wanna name me Ezra? Why couldn't you have named me Ice Man, or Hot Rod?"

Fair question :lol:

All right.....all is now back into celestial balance. I have about four loads of laundry to do, the car to clean out, MIL to speak with, dogs and cats to hug and kiss......

But the first thing I do is log on here!!! :lol::lol:

PATTI! Great pic! We look so happy....like we're old friends, just getting together for an traditional evening out. Really, this is what it felt like. :) About fourth on my list is going through the camera and downloading our pics. After I tend to my sick-looking plants and trying to catch up on the Susie situation....

I only wish I'd had more time to keep up with this heartbreaking story while away. I got a shocking update from Patti, then yesterday I quickly read PeOter's post where he said something about being happy with the latest development. I have to get over there and read.....

Queen Nicola The Good!

I've missed all of this exciting happenstance...... . . .you have a gorgeous new rescue kitten? Boris is beautiful. Yep, there's nothing like a rescue animal. Nothing can make you feel as wonderful. :)

Except, perhaps, a rescue husband. I got me one of those. Rescued him from a life of redundant pedantry and normalcy...... . . .who knows where he'd be, now.......... . . :lol::rolleyes:

This is so phunny--as Mark and I were sitting in our little rural Starbucks this afternoon, we were takling about how you were most likely home and awash in laundry! :lol: We had such a good time with ya'll--just like old friends getting together, as you said.

Yes, much has happened with our Susie, just since I've seen you--I'm sure Peter will fill you in on all of it.

Just think--your own bed tonight! :rolleyes:

Halllooooo Sillies!!! Have just got back from a wonderful Celiac potluck dinner at JenVan's parent's house. (A hello to Patti, from Jen.) I have met Lisa and her hair is indeed curly . . . I didn't check to see if it was a wig, though :unsure: . Lisa and hubby arrived on a motorscootercycle and I'm quite concerned whether they made it home or if they had to pull off somewhere because we now have a TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR!!! Lisa, I hope you made it!!!

I completely phorgot to bring a camera but Lisa's hubby took a picture so we do have photo evidence of our meeting. I suppose we all have to trust that it is Lisa, 'cause have any of you visited her profile?? It's a picture of a scuba diver . . . and she did not show up wearing a face mask and snorkel, so I just had to trust her when she said she was Lisa. :lol:

My daughter was hoping to meet another "Celiac Girl" there, but no such luck. Perhaps next year.

And how much of THIS holds true for a rescue husband?? :lol::P

He has settled in...eating loads (he was a rescue kitty[husband]..and was very skinny :( ) but doesn't like to be stroked <_< ....he backs off if you try to touch him........so we try to ignore him as much as possible until he's comfortable with us.

Yes, Janet....a speedy pic, please.

Did you guys take a boob shot, as well? :lol:

How superb that there were Sillies meeting everywhere..........

Like a colossal meeting of Great Minds and Spirits........ :huh::lol:

BTW......while in NYC, I encountered a waiting-in-the-stall-for-you-to-leave-so-they-can-poop situation. it was on Fifth Avenue, close to Central Park. I went into this public bathroom, and a woman had just entered the second stall as I came in. Sure enough, she was sitting in there for AGES while I peed, pulled up my shorts, flushed and came out. While I was slowly washing and then drying my hands, she continued to just sit there. I could not stand it. As I went to leave, I stood at the door and said, "Well?!"

Nothing.

I then said, "I AM LEAVING. You can poop now".

I am not certain, but I think she swore at me then. And it being New York City, I left. In Ottawa, I would have stuck around to see what she looked like. :lol:

Aaaarrrggggghhhhh!!!!!!!!!! :angry: Spent forever trying to load the picture onto the computer.....hadn't done it since getting a new computer.......had to reload a program...........then had to fix our complexions.....(the lighting made us red! :o )..............put it in as my new avatar.........typed up my post........and then lost Internet connection!!!!!...and everything I had typed.........then a transformer blew........couldn't get back on for a while, but I'm finally back........so let's try this again.....(although I was quite witty the first time......sorry you missed it! :P )

So anyway, here we are. :D:D .....sorry, no boob shots.

Yes, that is me and myragmop curly hair in desperate need of a new perm. I'm thinking about getting some cut off while I'm at it. And yes, we did make it home before the rain, with dark, ominous clouds following us the entire time :o .........phew!!!....no need for face mask and snorkel. :unsure::ph34r:

Janet is a sweetie, and she has a nice family.....her kids are so well-behaved......hubby too! :lol:

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
