Morning peeps :)

Woke up to the news about Michael Jackson... :( .....not exactly shocked as I didn't think he looked particularly hail or hearty

Alsey back from Paris last night - he had a FANTABULOUS time!!!...they saw all the sights AND squeezed in a trip to Euro Disney!! :D

Anyhoo, washing machine on a double shift now <_<

I have some good news to report, Arnie has really made a lot of improvements with his separation anxiety/bonding issues. He does have a ways to go, but there has been progress :)

JOOLZ!!!! :wub:

The A dog dealing wiv his ish-ewes!!! :D

But I have to have a TVU (no- not Tuvan throat singing lessons- a va-jay-jay ultrasound). Will wear sparkles and perhaps jewels!

NO perhaps about it Bevel - you simply MUST!!!!!!!!! (A gal has to look her best! ;) )

OMG.. . . . . .. :lol::lol: Perfect timing....a phonecall to bring me outta this sad time.

My mom is currently sitting with my dad in the ICU, and just rushed to the phone to call me after the first exchanges with him.

About an hour ago, he seemed to awaken briefly. His eyes fluttered open, and he looked briefly at my mom. He mumbled something, and then said, more clearly, "you're beautiful". Mom's heart swelled, and she apparently took his hand.

Nothing for an hour or so, and then his eyes suddenly fluttered again. Once more his eyes found Mom's face, and he whispered, "you are nice".

Mom's brow furrowed and, half smiling, she asked, "Hey..... . . . .what happened to beautiful?"

Silence. Then Dad quietly replied, "the anaesthetic is wearing off".

:lol:

Now this warms the cockles of me 'eart

Les back on FORM!!! :D

Dear gawd .. . . . . . ....the neighboUrs and their vehicles, our garage door, everything in said garage, pedestrians.... .... ..crap, there just ain't enough bubble-wrap in the world. . .. . ...

Hanh? What is this funny thing? What does lawl mean? It sounds terrific. Laughing at Whatever's Laughable? Laughter All Week Long?

Morning Sillies

Yea its the weekend! I am def getting home to see the family tomorrow. Nice weather, swimming weather! Plus my mom is watching the grandbabies so I get to see the new baby and Silvia. I cannot wait!

Still in shock over Michael- Farah we all knew was fading fast--but I must agree with Nik- Michael has not looked well- but I often wonder if the early death was caused by all he put his body through....

Good and bad news- I don't have Addison's! :D But I have to have a TVU (no- not Tuvan throat singing lessons- a va-jay-jay ultrasound). Will wear sparkles and perhaps jewels!

Welcome back Bev, I think of you often too. So glad the Addison's results came back negative!!!

Definitely go in style to your TVU.....get out the Bedazzler and jewel-ify yer va-jay-jay!!!

Not good . . . apparently, Susie's old stylist has relocated here. She started off hardly taking anything off . . . I was a bit annoyed but didn't say anything. Then she started to really wack some pieces off. I think she was trying to get it to lay right . . . I don't know . . . but I think she decided she would have to take it REALLY short to get it to do what she wanted . . . so then she just stopped . . . it looks horrible, but it's the middle of summer and he could care less. His hair and fingernails grow obscenely fast so it won't take long to get back to where it was. I do need to find somebody (and then stick with them) that has the ability to cut thick curly boy hair.

I am dying to know what Sooooozle meant by this emoticode..... . .. .a dog's tongue is said to be lolling when it is hanging out of its mouth while it pants.

Haven't posted in eons, but have downed my third cup of wine, so feeling capable. Unbelievably long week. No word on the job. Lots of stuff at my real job, including being in charge of our newest person, without really being in charge.

Roomie is pounding away in my kitchen. oh crap, and i haven't fed the chickens. Back in a bit

Hey all--I've returned from the forumless powerless abyss of yesterdays storm. A big whopper blew through here yesterday afternoon and poured down 4-5 inches of rain in twenty minutes with 70 mile an hour winds that destroyed trees and property all over the place and flooded the roads. Gads, what a mess!!! I lost all of my food--my whole freezer full of gluten-free stuff for my daughter:( Scott was up all night bailing out the sump pump, and it was hot and humid and miserable. Power came back on this early evening, so I headed out to forage for food but it never occurred to me the grocery store lost all of their food too :blink:

Emily--great news about your father :)

Bev, TVU is not fun imo. It gave me a yeast infection, too :angry: But, it doesn't hurt or anything like that, just not comfortable.

Hey all--I've returned from the forumless powerless abyss of yesterdays storm.

Ugh--sorry bout the storm and the mess that followed :angry: Losing all that food sucks! Glad yer back, though :D

mimommy Contributor

The storm wasn't the worst I've ever seen, but it was RELENTLESS. The rain just kept coming and coming. Then the wind--my God the trees were bending over, the tornado sirens went off, and there were weird groaning sounds coming from outside somewhere--I don't know if it was from the trees or the transformers. Then the power went out, and everybody came out to see the damage. I swear, 2 blocks south of me they lost 60-80 foot trees, but it doesn't look like they hit the houses. Driving through town was pretty rough.

Many years ago Scott and I had a tornado take out our neihborhood up in Washington Twsp, before we moved here. THAT was the scariest storm I've ever seen!

I think we might head back up to the cottage tomorrow. I can't buy food here and Hubs has Monday off. I'll have to see how much laundry I can get done in the morning.

Toronto had some very heavy rains yesterday around noon. I don't know how much came down, but it was flowing down the street in front of the shop inches deep. We are in an old, somewhat decrepit building. Our neighboUr, the owner of the patisserie (bakery) beside us, came in just after one o'clock and told me that he was getting water in his basement coming under the connecting door to our basement. We followed it back to the source, and no, there was no broken pipe, just water coming in through the seams in the cinder block wall from outside. Power was not disrupted. The landlord will fix the problem. When pigs have wings. :angry:

At the height of the downpour, a parking enforcement officer on a bicycle rode up in front of the store and wrote a ticket for a car in the no-parking zone, then rode away up the alley going north. He had no raincoat or umbrella, and must have been drenched to the skin. :unsure:

I am here by myself tonight and tomorrow. Jacquie has gone to a hen-party with a bunch of friends out of town. The cats are confused, because I have been feeding them and that is not what they expect. They seem to be eating, nonetheless.

mimommy Contributor

Well, what exactly are you feeding them :huh::unsure:

I was wondering if you guys got any of the same storm system, or Theresa?

Come to think of it, he was pretty soaked when he came in, and there was that loud knocking that I mistook for hail hitting the siding :unsure::blink:

Seriously, poor guy had to set his cell phone to ring at 3 am to go down and scoop gallons of water out of the sump. It was filling at rate of 7 inches every fifteen minutes last night <askeert>

Jestgar Rising Star

Zoiks! Sounds ugly. Glad you've made it through to the other side.

I am following the plan as outlined by the boss. But the cats associate food with her.

I come in the front door around feeding time. They all ignore me. JACQUIE comes in the door--three cats rush to her, meowing and rubbing her legs, expecting food. Meh. I don't count. :(

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
    • Matthias
      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
