I, too, must bid you adieu for tonight. It will be a busy morning tomorrow.

The jewels and scepter remain somewhat tarnished tonight. There was no polishing of the royal assets. :(

Sills--I'm sore in places I didn't know I had :o Last night we started putting an epoxy finish on the garage floor.....what a production! We had to etch it first (did this on Sunday) and then wash. By last night it was dry, so we mixed up the first batch of the stuff and ended up getting the floor about 2/3 done. All the edging is done (by moi) and it really looks incredible.

Another beautiful day here--got me winders open B)

so glad you got it 3/4 done

Duh! :blink: .....I had no clue what you were talking about........I thought we were still talking weather :huh:

You may have to polish the royal sceptor ;):lol::lol::lol:

waiting for the heating pad to warm up my bed for my back

So GOOD FER YOU, all you recent Psills - - Rah-shell, Slooozhee.... . . . ...trial by fire, I suppose. .. . . ... :rolleyes:

:lol:

you know, on that trip (one week in Maui), I wasn't really drinking AT ALL! In fact, I can tell you my age.....it was the first Christmas after my dad died, and some of our family went to Hawaii that year.....so I was about 27. NOT a heavy drinker at that time - probably just one umbrella drink a day, or none......

nope....I"m telling you.....I've been to most of the Hawaiian isles, and only in Maui did I sleep and sleep -_-

but OMG - now that I think of it, I napped nearly EVERY SINGLE DAY in Italy for half a summer! :o and was almost a COMPLETEL teetotaler at that age (23).....it was the diet that made me sleepy.....a breakfast of a croissant (with some UNBELIEVABLY delicious cream cheese or chocolate filling :( *sniff*) and coffee.....that was it......then a HUGE lunch at 1:00-ish.....OMG....had to CRASH every day, that is why they have siestas, my friends...no protein at the morning meal! the entire country is celiac hypoglycemic, I"m tellin ya... We called it Florentine Sleeping Sickness.....and could NAE fight it.......

Extremely cranky that I have to go and represent the TC (my "job") tonight at this function WITHOUT MY BOSS :angry: do NOT want to go.......no no no no NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :huh: Have a zit on my chin the size of a pea.....hair is PSYCHOTIC, and getting worse all the time :( Am VERY cranky, and do NOT want to go ANYWHERE, but most especially doing an activity that requires me to promote something that I think is GNUTS (our youth program). :angry:

There are worse things than inebriation, you know. Sobriety is at the top of my list.

So, at the store this afternoon, after unloading the truck, we are a bit tired mentally and physically.

Her majesty is on Phacebook and sees a phunny video linked by one of her phriends. It is not on my page, because her phriend of a phriend is not also my phriend. So she says, watch it on my computer.

I walk around, and click on it while she goes to do something else. I switch it to full-screen mode and watch. She comes back, and apparently did not know that you could watch in full-screen mode, because she asks me, "How did you get it up so big?" Several seconds of silence followed. :ph34r:

I then showed her how to access full-screen mode.

Menopause.....I went through it at aproximately 8AM on January 3, 2007 when they yanked out all me equipment :rolleyes: No HRT it'all, so the rest of that year was "interesting"--lots of hot and cold and all the rest. I'll tell ya thought--when everything settled down at the end of a year's time or so, it was wonderful to not have to think about all that stuff anymore. I think I had started the process at least 4 years prior, so I was just glad to get it behind me. Ah....the joys of bein a woman B)

Lee-sa's list = genius! :rolleyes:

Mark and I petered out last night--took a load over to the house, put it away, and decided to call it a night. We came back here and ate leftover Chang's and basically crashed. He fell asleep on the couch and I followed soon after.

Gotta go eat some breakfast and start cleaning. Way too much crap tatt around here. I need to have a yard boot sale but tis late in the season. Maybe I'll just pass this stuff out to the trick-or-treaters. Do you think they would like some used tupperware and old towels?

:lol: Jyagh-knutt! This is a superb idea. Buying trick-or-treat candy/crap to hand out is expensive and generally bad all around... . ..for kids' teeth, weight, etc. Why not place into their eagerly open sacks gently used household items that we no longer have use for, but which can be creatively recycled and continuously used?

How exciting for those expectant little goblins at my door, to receive my padded cushions for all those football games I once attended, the cloth napkins for our original place settings, the adapters for my old cordless phones.. . .......!

And HEY! The loved but rejected mistake-pictures of yore - - all those of foreheads, patio floor, half a thumb... .. . .

      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 +

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.

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
