I have to learn a programming language. I'm doing the non-required but extraordinarily useful classes on line and what I've learned so far is that knowing English grammar is a disadvantage.

Hi everyone!

The squirrel baby didn't make it to the animal hospital, we were meeting the lady for the animal refuge at 4:30. The little one stopped breathing at 3:45. We buried him the back yard...We named him Tiny. He was so cute.

the story behind him...we had a squirrel eating away the siding up on our 2nd floor....we had no idea she had babies...and the baby fell out of the nest and we found it....and John put it back by where he fell so maybe his mom would come back....Saturday morning he was still there....and it had been a cold night..SO we took him in and got him warm and started to call around so he could get help. He was about the size of a matchbox car.....

sadly he is gone...but in a better place.

Jestgar Rising Star

aaww. He was awfully small. At least you tried. you did good.

:(:(:(

. . . but here is my squirrel news. I spotted him yesterday . . . a half albino squirrel . . . his tail is white and his body is probably a couple shades lighter than our regular squirrels (but not white) . . . talk about funny looking . . . and no, it's not paint.

Back to the blues . . .

She could chew blue bubble gum?

She could carry a bouquet of blue cotton candy?

Good morning, Psillies!

This morning in our local paper there was a big picture on the front page of hundreds of Chinese people squashed together in the Yangze River, trying to escape the 40+ C heat wave. I was suddenly picturing our Sooooozle and Pahteigh's faces amongst them.... .

:lol:

How about baby blue bra and panties? Really lovely, lingerie-type - - could be a late shower gift from someone, perhaps.... . . . . .

Darn210 Enthusiast

Anybody else have problems getting on today? I was shut out until just a little bit ago but I see that there was posting done whilst I couldn't get on. Anybody?

jerseyangel Proficient

I did hear of a couple people having problems getting on and posting. I haven't had any, though.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I finally got on!!!!!

mushroom Proficient

I quite often have that problem when I'm home and when I get back on find that everyone has been merrily posting away, but had no problem here in Nevada today. :mellow:

SILLS!!!!! Today, I took Janey for her cataract surgery, and whilst waiting, met the loveliest woman from Quebec.....we spoke for nearly an hour (broken French and English and....what in HELL is that accent? :unsure: She was correcting my prononciations, but, I have a perfect accent (my only talent), so I"ve always been told by Parisians, etc.........

Em - you MUST call me on the phone so that we can hash this out :lol: Chiennes - j'ai eu deux chiennes - I can't even tell you how she was saying "chiennes" - - - - :unsure: like "she-ayne" ?? when I have always learned "she-ENN-e"

:kind of a silent but pronounced "e" on last syllable, a gentle schwa, actually:

<rather certain everyone but Poeter and Slim Shady are bored with this discussion> :lol:

I am certain that the differences in prononciation from France to Canada are very much like what we have in the transition from Europe to the twangy South, but, I just don't have enough experience <in French> to discern?

That's it - I'm taking my babies and we are moving to trop chere Quebec for the rest of the summer ;)

This woman lives in - GET THIS - Chowchilla (after Palm Springs and Santa Rosa, nice areas) - - worst freaking Valley town EVER and people are moving there in DROVES - including a close friend of mine - to live on the golf course, in a tree-less, dairy-stink, flat, dusty town with NUTTIN' to do. Big horrifically ugly houses for 150K..........what in hell? :blink: And I do mean nuttin' to do there, just ask me mum, who married a man from Chowchilla (we pronounce it with a schwa - Cha-CHILL-ah, to make fun of it :ph34r: ) and told him, if we do not leave this town, I will dee-vorce you. They moved.

YAY! Mattresses everywhere! AND: we must bring respective dogs, cats and civckebs.... . . . .

:) yes, and squirrels, chillens, spouses. Going to be mighty crowded here. Must make sure everyone is quite drunk. *hic* :lol:

. . . but here is my squirrel news. I spotted him yesterday . . . a half albino squirrel . . . his tail is white and his body is probably a couple shades lighter than our regular squirrels (but not white) . . . talk about funny looking . . . and no, it's not paint.

um, we WILL need a pic of this mutated squirrel! and....is he stalking you? :lol:

Today I ordered on ebay actual Tahitian vanilla beans to give more fragrance to my products that don't already have enough vanilla scent. :wacko: And, to make my own scented oils - maybe. :huh: Plus, three tiny fragrance samples from yet another home-scent crafter. :ph34r: I am on the quest for the perfect and longest-lasting vanilla. What a colossal waste of time. :lol: Yet, I cannot stop.

I need help. I haven't met a vanilla I don't like.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
    • trents
      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.
    • Ello
      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response. 
    • trents
      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
