Um, Jack is insisting on the truth of this fact, but I fail to see how anyone could know, or prove, this.. ...... . ..

A zebra is white with black stripes. They are NOT black with white stripes.

How do they know?? :huh:

Who are THEY, anyways?

:huh::huh:

I deduct...black with white stripes. They have black noses, where they have no stripes and black interior ears, and private parts (I assume :unsure: )

This is not starting out well. Preface-dh had big trade show all week, was in meetings every night this week. He's supposed to go to a big fundraiser/dinner tonight (by himself because I have to work). I pulled a 12 yesterday and again today at the hospital and was looking fwd to a nice quiet evening alone, go to bed early, all that stuff. Anywho, I get a text late yesterday afternoon from him saying his boss bought both of our tickets to the dinner so I have to go because they were 100$ per ticket and he's expecting me to be there AND by the way, you need to find a babysitter..... :angry:

Find a babysitter with less than 24hrs notice for a Saturday night-'yeah right' I was hoping would be my excuse, but dammit, she was available <_<

I had already made a date with Sven and Edward for last night (because Edward makes me forget about the evil Sven :D ) so I get home at 7, get kids ready for bed, meet Sven at 8 (because you don't stand Sven and Edward up-well, mostly Edward ;) ), he holds me captive till 9, MEANWHILE, I am texting dh (and at this point "d" does NOT stand for darling!!) about the dress code for the fundraiser and he doesn't get back to me. Finally at 9 he calls and says he asked some gal, and she told him there would be everything from nice jeans to sparkly gowns, so as long as I don't wear something overtly sexy, I should be fine.........Right, because this conservative, PTA presidential mother of 2 has nothing BUT overtly sexy clothes in my closet-oh what shall I do.......

So now I have to spend from 9-11 showering, shaving, waxing, exfoliating, shampooing, conditioning, drying (and 1/2 way thru drying hair I realized I forgot my frizz/straightening serum so I had to wet my hair down again-grrrrrrr), searching for clothes, ironing (clothes and hair), tanning, painting-and by this time I was so tired (been up since 430am) I didn't have the patience to remove the red chipped polish from my toes, so I painted the 2 toes on each foot that would be peeping from my peep toes black to cover up the red and I had to sleep with my feet out of the covers so as not to mess up the polish :rolleyes: Just to get up at 430 again, to make sure that hair is ironed perfectly in place, makeup is perfect, clothes are perfect plus the right bra, etc..... to pack so I can get ready AGAIN before I'm off work so I'm not too late for the dinner that I will probably miss anyway. <_<

I'm soooooooooooo tired and it's not even 10am. I need a stiff drink and a good arse whoopin for the hubby!!!

I hope all of you have a most relaxing weekend, give all your beh-behs hugs and kisses for me since I haven't seen my kids for more than an hour in the last 48 hours!!

This was more angry than psilly wasn't it :P

i had already made a date with Sven and Edward for last night (because Edward makes me forget about the evil Sven :D )

OMG!!!! YOU TOO?!?!?!

I think about Edward the WHOLE time I'm with Sven :ph34r::lol:

meet Sven at 8 (because you don't stand Sven and Edward up-well, mostly Edward ;) ), he holds me captive till 9

Sometimes I wish I could stand Sven up and Edward would hold me captive :huh:

:lol:

Wait! :unsure: ... did I say that OUT LOUD?

*snort* Does that make me cougar-esque??? :ph34r:

So now I have to spend from 9-11 showering, shaving, waxing, exfoliating, shampooing, conditioning, drying (and 1/2 way thru drying hair I realized I forgot my frizz/straightening serum so I had to wet my hair down again-grrrrrrr)

OMGaaawd

The FULL shave :unsure: (including big toes) and de-FRIZZING alone is a full days work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

:unsure:

I was QUITE CERTAIN they KNEW I was a murderess, cleaning massive blood stains off the carpet where the killing(s) had occurred.....so then I began 'splaining that my dog had eaten so much chocolate and thrown up everywhere.....and I"d been at the vet for hours and....blah blah blah.....

One time we had to rent a carpet shampoo'er at midnight.....we were living in Georgia and our house was sold. My eldest puked off the side of his bed and there was this gigantic orange-y stain all over the off-white carpeting. :o <gag>

I sent Mark up to the the Winn Dixie and at first they wouldn't rent it to him since the policy was not after 11PM er sumphin. Anywho, Mark spoke with the night manager and explained the circumstances and they let him rent one.

That was one long night..... :rolleyes:

      @catnapt,  I apologize.  Obviously I've confused you with someone else.  I have vision problems due to undiagnosed Celiac complications.  Being legally blind, y'all look the same from here.   You still have not said which new medication you started taking.  Parathyroid disorders can affect antibody production.  Bone Loss Correlated with Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Adult Celiac Patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36619734/ Effect of vitamin B1 supplementation on bone turnover markers in adults: an exploratory single-arm pilot study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12075007/

      during the gluten challenge I did not consume any wheat germ   the wheat germ is TOASTED - it's the only way it is sold now afiak doesn't matter I consume vast amounts of lectin containing foods PROPERLY prepared and have for well over a decade. They do not bother me in the least.    no anemia however the endo who ordered the celiac panel is the one who suggested the 2 week gluten challenge of eating at least 2 slices of bread per day or a serving of pasta- ALSO put me on a new drug at the same time (not a good idea)  I ate 4 slices because they were thin, or 2 English muffins, and just once some lasagna that someone else made since I stopped eating wheat pasta years ago. The English muffins caused some of the worst symptoms but that pc of lasagna almost killed me ( not literally but the pain was extreme) during those 12 days there were at least 3 times I considered going to Urgent Care.   This entire process was a waste of time TBH due to being on that new drug at the exact same time. it is impossible to tell if the drug I am taking for the possible renal calcium leak is working or not- given the dramatic response to the gluten challenge and resulting nausea (no vomiting) and eventually a loss of appetite and lower intake of foods so now I have a dangerously low potassium level   I don't have a simple case of celiac or no- I have an extremely complicated case with multiple variables I am seeing an endocrinologist for a problem with the calcium sensing glands - that system is very complicated and she has been unable to give me a firm diagnosis after many tests with confusing and often alarming results. She also appears to be inexperienced and unsure of herself. but I don't have the luxury of finding a new endo due to multiple issues of insurance, lack of drs in my area, money and transportation. so I'm stuck with her At least she hasn't given up    in any case I can assure you that lectins are not and never were the problem. I know they are a favorite villain in some circles to point to, but I have ZERO symptoms from my NORMAL diet which DOES NOT contain gluten. The longer I went without bread or foods with wheat like raisin bran cereal, the better I have felt. my body had been telling me for several years that wheat was the problem- or maybe specifically gluten, that remains to be seen- and stopping eating it was the best thing I could have done   I almost had unnecessary MAJOR SURGERY due to joint pain that I ONLY have if I am eating bread or related products I assumed it was the refined grains - never really suspected gluten but it does not matter I won't put that poison in my body ever again not that it is literally poison but it is def toxic to me

      @catnapt,  I'm sorry you're having such a rough time.   How much wheat germ and how much gluten were you eating? Lectins in beans can be broken down by pressure cooking them.  Do you pressure cook your beans?  Were you pressure cooking your wheat germ? What drugs are you taking?  Some immunosuppressive drugs affect IgA production.  Do you have anemia?
    • catnapt
      oops my gluten challenge was only 12 days It started Jan 21s and ended Feb 1st   worst 12 days of my life   Does not help that I also started on a thiazide-like drug for rule in/out renal calcium leak at the exact same time No clue if that could have been symptoms worse 🤔

      Welcome to the forum @Known1, What reaction were you expecting? Pipingrock.com High Potency Vitamin D3, 2000 IU, 250 Quick Release Softgels $6.89 I've have been taking the 10,000 IU for close to 10 years. When I started with vitamin D I worked my way up to 10000 over several weeks.  Even at 8000 I felt no noticeable difference.  Then after a few days at 10000 it hit Whoa, sunshine in a bottle.  celiac disease causes malabsorption of dietary D and you've poor UV access.  It took me from 2015 to 2019 to get my 25(OH)D just to 47 ng/ml.  Another two years to get to 80.  70 to 100 ng/ml seems to be the body's natural upper homeostasis  based on lifeguard studies.  Dr. Holick has observed the average lifeguard population usually has a vitamin D 3 level of around 100 ng/ml. Could it be that our normal range is too low given the fact that ¾ or more of the American population is vitamin D deficient? Your Calcium will increase with the vitamin D so don't supplement calcium unless you really need it.  Monitor with PTH  and 25(OH)D tests. Because of your Marsh 3 damage you need to ingest way more than the RDA of any supplement to undo your specific deficiencies. I believe you are in the goiter belt.  Unless you have reason not to, I recommend pipingrock's Liquid Iodine for price and quality.  The RDA is 150 to 1100 mcg.  In Japan the safe upper level is set at 3000 mcg.  Start with one drop 50 mcg to test for adverse response and build up.  I found 600 mcg (12 drops) a day is helping repair my body.  Iodine is necessary to healing.  90% of daily iodine intake is excreted in urine.  A Urine Iodine Concentration (UIC) can tell how much Iodine you got that day.  The thyroid TSH test will not show iodine deficiency unless it is really bad.
