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...

WELL done Em for NOT mentioning anal glands in the presence of a noo-bee ..... Ooops...think I just did :rolleyes:

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

Bunn-gnee!!... so sorry to hear 'bout your job loss :( ... but, sounds as if you'd come to the end of the road anyway <_<

Sometimes you feel better when you've given in to the inevitable.

Love the penguin & the dog is wonderful. I'll bet he's smart too.

Eh..... not really. But he's smart enough to know that when he hears the sports commentators, football is about to start. He hates football.......makes him very nervous. He does not live up to his namesake! :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."

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.)

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol
