This one's just fer you Jan-it.....Hee! :lol::lol:

I'm excited!! :D:D Guess what Sillies? I'm getting me hair cut by the Deva Method B) There's a salon in the area that does it--it's supposed to be the very best way to cut curly hair and it takes special training. They do the cut on dry hair and then wash and style it. They observe the way the individual's curl pattern goes, and then cut accordingly.

I went there today while we were out to ask about it--the girl was going to look into the products and let me know what they suggest for me Celiac-wise. I made my appointment for Thursday and she just called--they want me to wash and let my hair air-dry completely (naturally--no blow dry) before I go in, and instead of using their products (which have wheat amino acids), they'll spritz with water to style after the cut. :D

I've been just growing it out the last few months ;) , so I'm really psyched!!

Just got back from the vets with Harry.

He has been de-peanutted AND vaccinated.

I took him to a vet clinic that does low cost neutering....but when I told them he was a stray I stole took in they waived the fee!!!!!!!!!

Anyhoo, am laughing at the poor wee bugger who is frantically licking and cleaning whilst no doubt screaming in his li'l cat mind 'WTF's happened to meeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! '

gahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kit Kit (I don't know what his name is :blink: ) will be sharing the same fate soon..........it's a walk-in place and lazy, slattern mommy hasn't gotten up early enough to take him yet :ph34r: But no going outside until he gets those nutters off...

Lurve the train station :lol:

Which piece should be proclaimed Newman's new masterpiece? Which work has him more agonized, more in despair over the fate of modern humanity?

Yes, this was debated for the better part of an afternoon.

I collected my concentration coursework, and headed over to the English department. :lol::lol:

POeterrrrrrr....there's a winter storm warning in effect from Windsor straight through into the Gatineau Hills - - we're expecting 25 cm, and you must be braced for a dumping, as well.....belated phlipover deluge?

Hehehehe & also grammar etc doesn't keep changing while under close scrotiny scrUtiny.

:lol: Yes, 'tis true.......

Smack is up way too early. Gah.

Nik, those were astonishing eyebrows. . . . .my crazy daughter may have double-jointed brows as well...should ask her what she can do. She manages all sorts of Ripley's bizarre movements with her eyes - - moving one pupil while the other stays straight, or both in opposite directions....rather lizard-like and quite a parlour trick. ... . ... :rolleyes:

OMG those roads are terrible! Took us 45 minutes to get to work....a typical 15 minute drive. It was not fun. Then you have the drivers going way too fast for the conditions.

So here we are another day of work upon us. I am hoping it will be quiet...due to the roads and all.

off to work sillies!

I drove in at 6 this morning, the roads were bad but I can handle it, the problem was the people with rear-wheel drive trying to kill me. You know, half those vehicles have 4-wheel capability, but THEY DON'T USE IT.

Snaugh here too! Most schools are closed--the ones out here and the Philadelphia schools, too. Don't know the official number, but it looks like 4 inches in me driveway.

I'm not gonna miss snaugh at all! :P

I'm planning to take a stab at cinnamon swirl bread today using my GFP French Bread Mix. Gotta phigure out how to finagle the batter so I can coat it wif cinnamon/sugar and roll. <scratching head>

Weather is pretty shtinky here, too. Not only the snaow (only about 2"), but a heavy coating of ice on top. We're expecting more freezing rain and mixed krapp. Schools close here for everything because there just isn't the equipment to handle clearing the roads (lots of mountainous back roads). 'Course.....this does not directly affect me....no chilluns in this house, and very few in the neighborhood. My son moved a lot farther away from winter than I did...he's in Arizona! Smart boy! :P

Hey, what's goin' on wif you Yanks, closing all yer schools with a sprinkling of psnaough?? Hell, y'all need to head up here - - our schools literally never close..... . blizzard conditions, two feet of the stuff, 'tis business as usual. The school BUSES can be cancelled, but the school staff is all waiting for your kids if you deliver them.. . . . . . .. B)

Ja-gnitt, poor Josie! You may need to eventually get her a seeing-eye mouse . .. ..

I need him, too. My daughter is out there right now, doing odd things along the side of the driveway, strange zigzags .. . . . perhaps she is moving her eyes in opposite directions . .. . . . :huh::lol:

Will and I have a very important, final meeting with our litigation lawyer this aft. I remember telling you guys about the horrific accident DD had, all due to school board negligence. :angry::angry::angry: It was four years ago, and just now we have our final presentation to make to the board's insurance company. They reaaaaaaaally owe my daughter. So, we'll see. . . . . .

Haven`t checked in on me dad this morning....off to do this. . ..

Carry on, Sills!!

Hi Em! I know what you mean about schools not closing no matter what. When I lived in the Adirondacks it took a lot to get the schools closed! But then again, the snow and bad weather is the norm, and they had the equipment to deal with it. I loved front wheel drive cars, I could get to work safely no matter what! Such an improvement over rear wheel drive!

This weather does not stop the builders. Am listening to heavy equipment, until it vibrates my skull and thru my head! Am trying to be grateful that it's winter, and that it's not nice weather when I want to play outside in peace and quiet! UGH ! <_< Hopefully they won't be too much longer at this.

Good luck with your meeting today, Em. They do owe her--what a thing to have to go through, especially for a child. I'll be sending good, positive thoughts to you and Will. :)

Let us know 'bout dad.....

I say butter or grease the pan, pour some cinnamon sugar in there and swirl it around to coat, just like flouring a pan. Then once the batter's ready, slightly stir in a swirl of cinnamon sugar, then it will mix itself just a bit more as you pour it into the pan. That's what I'd do, anywho. It'll probably take some practice, you'll just have to do this again and again.... sigh.....

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
