Ha! No problem on the updates :D

Yeah, about this magical power--I musta been behind the door when it was passed out! :P

I was hoping that Peter wouldn't reveal our magical powers. I actually posted that, but edited because there is always someone who jumps up your arsenal.

your arsenal.

Moi? I don't tell tales out of school. Clearly, veggienft (see the Open Original Shared Link) believes we have far more power than we actually do.

But we do what we can. B)

Guys sorry for the delay in posting my organic answer....I am simply pooped from work and I just died on the couch when I got home....

Anyway the reason I asked about the Organic is another member posted in a different thread that It is stupid to not buy organic.....this member always rubs me the wrong way and I just wondered how many people do buy organic....

anyway off to bed night sillies and thanks for always letting me vent :)

There's 4 or 5 members who flat-out irritate the crap out of me. :P I generally do the Jess thing, and don't let myself reply. :rolleyes:

As for eating organic... yeah, like I said... I'm looking for ways to shrink my grocery bill, not inflate it. <_<

AGREED on the irritating people. I had a much longer post bemoaning my annoyance with so many non-Sillyville posts/posters lately but it was kind of crazily rambling and a little too angry I think so I quickly got rid of it.

I'm pretty much the same with everyone else here on the whole organic issue. I occasionally buy organic things but certainly don't go out of my way to do so. Saying that it is stupid to not buy all organic stinks of elitism and blurs what should be a clear line between personal opinion and scientific fact and those are two things that really get on my nerves.

Morning, Sillies!

Well, at 6:45 this morning, I hear loud clomping around and banging on my roof - - yep, the guys are back, there's presently NO rain falling, so off they go again. I quietly went over to my back hedge at 6:00 and interrupted Mr. Chow in full Early Sun Pose. I asked him if he knew any pose that would keep rain away....like the classic aboriginal rain dance. Nope. He GREETS rain, if you can imagine.......what in hell good is that? <_<:rolleyes:

Moi? I don't tell tales out of school. Clearly, veggienft (see the Open Original Shared Link) believes we have far more power than we actually do.

I dunno, PeOter.......there's something so..... . .calmly strong and all-encompassing about you mods.....Patti just RADIATED a silent power when we met. :DB) I really do need a couple of you in my day to day life, to delete regrettable said things, to issue warnings when they are clearly needed, and to report my kids to me when they are sneakily doing heinous things..... <_<:lol:

Glad to see you, Alex! How's married life? (If anything belongs on a Silly thread, it's that). How is Colin?

Organic food......crazy at times. Half the time one isn't positive the produce really IS organic...pesticides from the neighboUring, normal farm can blow over and "infect" the pristine organic crops......and fer all dat money. Organic bananas - - 99 cents a pound! :o

Morning Sillies!

Well I am glad it is not me who also has trouble with some people. I understand everyone is entitled to their own views and opinions but some people around here push their views and that is exactly how my MIL is with religion and such....it is very annoying, so annoying in fact that she lives 5 minutes down the road and I have not seen her since Memorial Day.

Its finally Friday!!!!!! And tonight we are going to the casino...cross your fingers that we win something....LOL! Guess it is time to start some work. Alot of people are out of the office today including the boss, so I may check in more frequently....when the cats away the mice will play!

I agree. It's really, seriously irritating.

Well said!!! I can't stand it when people state their personal opinion as fact. It seriously drives me up the wall. The arrogance... makes me want to barph.

Well, the boys had a friend sleep over last night-- my friend's son who I was telling you guys about. This was the first time they've had a friend sleep over. My boys slept over there one night last month. I have to say, last night wasn't nearly as bad as I feared. :P

They were all in sleeping bags watching movies by 10:30, and konked out by midnight. And they didn't get up at the butt crack of dawn, either. I consider myself lucky. :lol:

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.
    • Colleen H
      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      EXACTLY! I was asked yesterday on my LAST video call with Standford and I stated exactly yes absolutely this is why I need the name! One, get proper care, two, not get worse.Im falling apart, stressed out, in pain and just opened email from Stanford stating I was rude ect.I want that video reviewed by higher ups and see if that women still has a job or not.Im saying this because I've been medically screwed and asking for help because bills don't pay itself. This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
