Just because nobody understands you, it doesn't make you an artist.

:lol: SOoOooO true!

Hey, we've had a couple o' newbies glance in and then promptly exit, for good, it seems. Probably thinking, "wow, there's a quiet thread"... . ....

We've gotta get everyone back and psilly, to keep this new blood around! Kareng, it has gotten crazy around here in times past, with pages flipping by at breakneck speed, talk of wondrous things that you'll laugh about in bed at night, royal ascensions and takedowns, shopping lists, ethical dilemmas involving either li'l feet protruding from your chin or a li'l bum on your forehead.... . . ...... . ..

And it will come back to this! Gotsta get the regulars BACK!

I am back from the depths of hell. Worked 12 days straight - some long-a$$ days, did two computer class homeworks (20-30 hours each) AND my room mate moved out!!! :D :D :D :D :D

For those of you that have forgotten, room mate is my ex. Was not the most pleasant of living conditions. Now my house is empty and peaceful, well, other than the kitchen getting worked on it's peaceful, but still, I'll take it.

It's funny that you don't realize how much stress something is causing you until it's gone. I feel like I've been carting bricks around, and I've finally put them down.

So today, the plan is to wash the jeans (that I've been wearing for 12 days straight :ph34r: :ph34r: ), buy food, since I am down to canned tomatoes, and start moving boxes into my newly empty room..... After siting quietly in my peaceful house and enjoying my coffee...

Ginger hair not so bad...had dulled down a tad, only really visible when the light catches it (after furious washes!! :lol: )

We got about 5-6 inches of snow yesterday here in Kansas City. My 13 year old had to shovel most of it so he says we got 10 inches. Also, I'm naturally "ginger" & try hard & at great expense to remain "ginger."

Nope . . . north of us has the snow emergency.

Speakin' of The Ripper . . . and the chin feet and such . . . when is he going to pose us another kwestion? We haven't had one in some time now.

A box truck picked our cul-de-sac to try and turn around in. I saw him pulling in and yelled out to my husband "Come look at this guy!! What in Hell is he doing?? He's going to get stuck!!!" Within minutes, he was. Hubby went out to help dig him out and also to get his name for when he hit our mailbox. Now I told me hubby to let him hit the mailbox, because we need a new one. So what happens?? The guy was planning on trying to back into our drive and hubby warns him to cut the wheel sharp so he doesn't hit our mailbox. I guess this concerned the guy that he tried to pull forward instead and started sliding and hit our neighbor's mailbox!!!! They didn't need a new mailbox!!! We did!!! I told my hubby it was all his fault we didn't get a new mailbox out of the deal. <_< . . . :lol::lol:

Welllll, now, I guess that explains his attractions. I had never understood Sven's mysterious powers to punish ourselves (never having availed meselph of his services), but now I'm beginnin' to see the light

I tell ya, the Brits have never been the same since they lost the Empire.... Thought it was all the chimpanzees they was sending to NZ and OZ....turns out it was all the BRIGHT chimpanzees who have e-v-o-l-v-e-d to type the complete works of Shakespeare on their computers while the Brits can't even seem to make boilers!! (what dat??) that work. Still on steam heat???

A big HELLOOOO to Caerinn(g), another target to pick on. May ye have many interesting quirks! (lost me emoticons on this 'puter for some reason, stoopid (pine)Apple.)

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better
    • trents
      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."
    • Mari
      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.
