You just reminded me that I never washed my pillows from the last time I spilled wine while drinking in bed. I'm sure those are at the bottom of some stack of something as well. May be easier just to buy new pillows at this point.

I had to buy more socks and undies last weekend because I hadn't done wash in weeks.

hmmmmm . . . I see a trend.

Why in hell do I have so many clothes anyway?

Do I really have to answer that question??

:lol::lol:

I'm pouring myself a drink . . . anyone joining me?

Yes! I currently have very low blood sugar - -an excellent thing, as it allows me to pour myself a Bailey's. I shall take it to the fireplace, sit and sip and stare at the fire and our Christmas tree. May coax me husband in there......if not, I'll bring along my ipod touch and chat wif youse guys... .. . .... :rolleyes:

Yippee on Skeeter seeing the lice light at the end of the tunnel....poor girl.

'tis true. That stuff coming down from Vancouver has a rep.

It does even here.....and Shroomie's right- the right coast has ALWAYS been the wrong coast :lol:

hmmm drinking in bed.......

Why does this sound SO great!!!!!!!!!!!??????

Sounds like you don't need to pour yerself a drink - - just walk around the rooms and lick things as you go....

I think we are expensive....you should wait until the new year sales -- you might get two-for-one specials. Or scratch and dent sales, where you'll find a decent Canadian who is a little ugly er sumfin', but still can do yer chores. . ...... :lol:

BOGO Canadiennes! Sweet! Wonder if they carry them at macy's after Christmas. I'd like a new duvet cover, some new underwear, black pants and two Canadians, :lol::huh:

Well, that's just crazy talk!!! Jess, it's awfully early in the morning to be drinkin' . . . unless of course you're still drinking from last night.

Headed east in about an hour. This is normally a 10 hour drive but our endpoint got about 20 inches of snow on Saturday so we'll see how this goes. May be stopping somewhere along the way and making it a two day trip.

I'll be on sporadically (as if I wasn't before) but just in case, Have a Merry Christmas everyone!!! :D

Yup........spent yesterday at in-laws.......what a noisy crowd!

Some white elephant gifts seen last night...........a chewed up dog toy, a gawdy Christmas sweater, 8-track tapes, a box of old reading glasses, a box of petrified biscuits from Popeye's, a used toilet seat.

I'm getting through the holidays by reminding myself that it's almost over ;)

Bye Jan-knit!!!!! Come back safely!!! Don't bring back any convicts!

I think I'm still hung over from Saturday night. My stomach is soooooo sour this morning, can't seem to shake it. The older I get, the longer it lasts....

Odd weekend, 62 degrees at the beach-Oregon coast in Dec.?!?!?! BIG arse Christmas party, lots o fun, except the host lurved my "toe cleavage" and asked to touch it :blink: What do you say to that????? But had a nice time away with the hubbie overall.

Soooooo ready to enjoy Christmas with the fam. Kids are so excited, AND a coworker asked to take most of my call for New Years weekend--hoooorayyyyy!!!!

:lol: Yes, and I must say that was the least serious of the many... . ...changes...... . that have happened with my cars after MIL has brought them home over the years. Missing side mirrors (BOTH sides), missing windshield wipers (snapped right off........how does this happen?), crushed license plates, bits of Jack's bicycle imbedded in the tires, large splatters of blood along the front bumper... . . .....

Truly terrifying.

I actually have not yet been out into the garage since she got home. :unsure:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
