I just saw over in the OMG thread that it's Julie's birthday!!!

Happy Birthday, Julie :D I hope you have a great, safe birthday cake with all the trimmings!

I posted over there, too, so you'd be sure to see it :lol:

Thanks! Boy news sure travels fast from Rachelville to Sillyville, we must be neighboring communities :lol:

I didn't end up cooking a thing, or even baking a cake, much too pooped from family being in from out of town this week, but I did have a very nice day. It was gorgeous here, I sat out and lounged in the sun all afternoon (thanks to Edna and Sven I was able to buy a new, smaller size swim suit :D ) and then watched a few movies this evening :)

I'm going to celebrate with family next weekend because everyone was tied up this weekend, so I might attempt my experimental cake then.

And Silly meetings all around! Yay Janet and Lisa, I'm so glad you guys got to meet up, and Jenvan too!

Green12 Enthusiast

Janet!!!!!! Omg, I just noticed your avatar! Almost spit my water out, that is hee-lair-e-ous :lol::lol:

Great avatar of the Silly Summit, what a group of good looking pholks!

Good to put a face with your name Lisa.....Janet what are you talking about, you don't need Edna :rolleyes:

Morning, Sillies!

Nice to be back in me own bed, I must say, with cats crawling all over me and substandard poodle noses snuffliing me through the wee hours.

Heaven!

Super pic, Psimultaneous Psilly Psummiters! :)

You both have gorgeous hair, and Janet, you need Edna like I need more laundry...... . . ;):D

Lisa . . . this is EXACTLY what I was talking about . . . How much of this stuff from Emily is actually true???

(((((Gasp)))))).........

I was referenced at your meeting?? B):lol:

DH comments on this all the time - - how my recounted life's events are likely NOT bought by the majority. There is NO way he would believe these things, he assures me, unless he were around to witness the direct evidence.

He DID see me exit said washroom quickly, with a bemused smile on my face. When I told him about what I had said aloud in there, he was not particularly amused....more concerned and anxious. "You don't go saying stuff like that, phunny (okay, he didn't say phunny....he said funny) as it may be, in a huge, don't-mess-with-me-city like New York".......

Ah, to be niave, and silly!!! :lol::lol::rolleyes:

At least I didn't walk around this behemoth city with my huge urine container in tow.

......Or did I?...........

:lol:

Jestgar Rising Star

These pictures are so great! It's nice that people can meet up now and again.

Jules! Happy Birthday!!

Em, I so want to believe that you told that woman to poop.

I feel a bit better after lying around all day yesterday. I haven't done that since the good ol' gluten days. Today is my me methotrexate reaction day, so I'm not expecting to get much done today, either.

I'm hoping to at least manage to get my me new crock pot washed and throw something in it to cook. Didn't realize you're supposed to fill it at least half full. Guess I'll be making a lot of whatever. :blink:

Julie HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!

Further Psilly summits of which I knew NOTHING ?!?! (Janet, Lisa, Jenvan = sneaky) :D

Emily regailing tails of trying to get herself killed :o in a New York toilet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o:lol:

"Rescue husband" heeheehee

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

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

Well now that you mention it I did 'rescue' Terry :lol: (I dunno if he'd agree ;) ) ....and he was pretty skinny when I met him (stupid celiac disease :rolleyes: )

BUT oddly enough he doesn't back off when touched :huh::lol:

He is next to me when I wake up though :rolleyes::lol:

'Rescued Tel' is busy painting Al's room.......Al is away for the weekend and we have to finish the painting while he's not here as it makes him throw up !! :o :greenguy:

Tel then has to fit a 'cat-flap' to the back door as I'm fed up with bloomin' cats meowing

I must do some ironing <_<

GADS!!!!>>>>Life is one big chore !!!!!!!!! :lol:

Hey, where's BEV???

Sleeping???, Svenning, entertaining Swedes OR playing a 'Hurdy Gurdy' ???? :unsure:

Gawd Jess.....not such a magical weekend fer you :( Those phibroids are nasty buggers--I was plagued by them for years. Now the drug reaction on top of it all--you poor thing. Definately take care of yourself and get lots of rest on yer clean swing....

I have a large oval (6 quart, maybe?) c®ock pot and usually don't end up filling it halfway. It just cooks quicker with less in it, I've found.

What? Jess has a clean swing? The languishing men are no longer draped over the outdoor furniture? I'm struggling to remember - - were they not Swedes? ....Did they serenade her while strumming hurdy gurdies? :huh::lol:

Jess, I'm sorry about the blasted phibroids. They can be hell....... :(:angry:

Nikki! STOP this thing called ironing! Wear yer clothes in their natural, washed state - - wrinkled and charming. :)

There were fun moments yesterday. Since I was outside I left the door open so the cats could come out. Every now and then Lefty would jump up on the swing, put his paws around my neck and drool in my ear. Actually both ears, he likes to make sure he's given the full value of his hug.

And last night I was giving Lyle some catnip from my big container of 'nip. He likes to eat it right out of the jar so I was sitting on the floor holding it for him. Suddenly he sticks his paw in and scoops out half the contents onto a pile on the floor which he then plops into. I tried to scoop up most of it but every time I put my hand there he'd pounce on me (cutely, he's a nice cat). So Lyle is covered in dried green leaves (he rolls on it too) which he brings with him to bed (maybe that's why I slept so well, a little inhaled 'nip) and my bedroom carpet has little leaves all over it. I just noticed that Max is walking around covered in little green leaves, and undoubtedly Lefty is having a mellow day as well.

Maybe if I just wait long enough everything'll be snuffled up and I won't have to vacuum. Or p'raps I should try rolling in it. Maybe the cats know something we don't...

jerseyangel Proficient

Ya know Jess, considering how you're feeling and all--maybe a roll in the stuff isn't such a bad idea! :P

Couldn't hurt :D

So it's Patti wiv 'er boobs out then??? :huh:

...and OMG!! Patti's got a little 'R' fing for her Crockpot?????.......WHERE IS MINE????? :unsure:

Em, took yer advice and have done no mining ironing - creases IT IS!!!!!! :o

Jess, YES!! You MUST roll in catnip and discover it's secrets!!

My cats seem totally nonplussed by it :blink:

Meanwhile the two older cats eye the 'catflap' suspiciously like this -----> :huh:

In fact, I'm sure I heard Lucy (who is a little ahem rotund) say to Will:

''If they think I'm squeezing myself through that they are deluded!! - I shall continue meowing to enter''

Decided instead of the ironing to have a clear out and EBAY it - I am still sorting the pics but it's mainly eldest son's tatt

(don't tell him I'm selling his clothes that he bought ;):lol: )

Wow! Queen Nik's cat's are curiously formal in their manner of speech. Is it their royal parentage? Or the mere britishness of their lives that elicit this behaviour?

elye Community Regular

Mygawd, watching my cats upon the introduction of catnip is wondrous........

It is their absinthe.........no question.....

:lol:

And what is this of which you speak, Nik - - Patti's crock pot R thing? :huh::huh:

A rack?

Rodent Setting?

Well, apparently EmaLee, you need more laundry . . . notice my a$$ hips aren't in the photo and it is not taken from the side . . . I'm quite thick . . . take that however you want to. :lol:

Yeah, yeah whatever, with a big fat "W"! I'm not buying it Janet, it's all in yer head!

Patti has magic powers!

You have no idea........Once you meet Patti, you truly begin to see and feel the power she quietly wields. It is awesome to behold. She held everyone at Starbucks powerless in her grip...... . . . :huh::lol:

Remember the two-page change-up coup 300 pages ago?.......I believe we all know who silently orchestrated that forum magic.......

:lol:

EMILY!!

Patti has a large oval one

She does not! I met her........and she doesn't have an oval one......!!.. . . ..A bit circular, perhaps... ..ovoid, maybe.... . . .

What in hell am I talking about?. .. .. ..... :lol::lol:

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
