I did . . . :D:D:D

I've been watching since right before Christmas . . . and the sets kept going for more than I was willing to spend (which was still significantly cheaper than to buy it at Hallmark). . . but I finally got me one.

Open Original Shared Link is what I got except it didn't include the angel or pedestal on the far left . . . and it didn't include that price tag.

That's so beautiphul, Jan-it :D Congratulations!!

I have an angel identical to the one on the left, except mine is holding a grey kitty. :)

Oooo very nice - I fondly remember the set we had when I was growing up.

Holy Moly.....that's beautiful!!! I have several willow tree angels and I love them. I don't think I've seen the nativity set. (That was a pretty nasty price listed up there). I'm glad you got it and for (hopefully) a lot less money! :)

Well . . . I would have loved for it to have been even cheaper, but I'll be happy wif my price. I have been looking for YEARS for a nativity set that I like and that I know that I will still like in 20 years. We currently have a Fisher-Price plastic nativity set. Skeeter was concerned that I was going to get rid of it when I showed her what I was planning on buying . . . :lol: . . . I told her that I definitely would not get rid of it until she was absolutely done with it.

Speaking of Tinkyada . . . I'm not liking Whole Foods too much . . .

Bummer :angry:

I'm fortunate that our little local grocery store carries Tinkayda and a few other gluten-free things that I use.

We still have the Nativity set I bought the phirst Christmas we were married (1975 :ph34r: )

The last few years, each time we take it out of the box, it has another chip er sumphun......it's really pretty, though.

I have a nativity that is a knockoff of Precious Moments. Got it when my son was small, and I didn't have a whole lot of money. My son is no longer small....and I still don't have a whole lot of money!<:hehehface:>

I miss our neighnoUr's life-sized nativity set that I spoke of recently.....the one in the middle of his lawn, with a huge life-sized Santa, sleigh and reindeer swooping over top of the creche, Christmas lights strung across the top and along Baby Jesus's cradle, a huge blowup Homer Simpson standing sentinel alongside the gathering. . . . .

Uh-oh .. ...did that scores of pages ago :o

Uhhhhhh the colonoscopy prep wasn't near as bad, in my case & in particular relative to pre-gluten-free, as advertised.

I woke for a few sec during colonoscopy to feel internal gnawing? Not ringing a bell?

No issues w/ endoscopy, save the barely scratchy throat.

Then, post-everything, was told of gobbler goblet cells.

twenty pages and ...

I saw Pataghumn's earlier post--and cringed a little when he said he woke up during the colonoscopy. <horrifiedphace>

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
