Trying this.

Me too. Thinking of the Grand Marnier.

Careen, when you have a quote that fizzles like your last one, you have accidentally deleted the "end quote". You can go back and put it in by typing open square colon, followed by slash, followed by "quote" leaving out the quote marks, and then close square colon.

Now who made up that stoopid rule??? I do not follow it :P

Admittedly, it was easier not to follow the rule when we had a very fartuous Airedale around. :lol:

Mine oven is broke, but it's okay, it's not the oven that won't turn off, only the light. And I can't just unplug it. There is a master switch to turn the oven on and off and the oven stays fully "on" in either position. Do you suppose I should warn the repairman about that??? :o There is no access to the plug that either hub or I am willing to explore, this being 220 and all.... could get someone killt or something.

Wet day today, hooray, didn't have to water garden, but drivers is so stoopid. Had to go to town and see Miss Mary who had a little sidetrip to hospital last week but bounced right back, BUT has not been taking her meds in the evening for at least three weeks and is not eating much except meat pies and bread and butter :o (and three Weetbix with cream on an empty stomach before bedtime) which precipitated the little hospital episode. At 97 she is still fiercely independent but really not up to properly caring for herself. She is such a worry. She won't consider care whilst her kitteh is still wif her :) So bought fixings to make her a big pot of stew and freeze in portions because she luvs stew :D Think she can still use microwave. She said she *only* fell three times this week, but it's okay because she falls backwards!!

:huh:

:unsure:

:rolleyes:

(And she's only had two broken hips and only one knee replacement)

G'Day, Peeps!

Think I'll have me eyes open for the entire day, today. Well... . . . ......unless a canvasser comes a' knockin'.... .. . . . . ..:rolleyes:

There is a master switch to turn the oven on and off and the oven stays fully "on" in either position.

Holy crap, Shroom...... .yer oven is ON perpetually? Like your fridge and freezer?? How bizarre.... . . . . ..um, why? Don't get it -- and how much power is that being used/wasted? :unsure: Such a curious thang.... . ....

And Miss Mary! I vaguely remember you telling us about this amazing lady.. . . .....is she your aunt? What an inspirational character!

I wonder if my MIL will live this long.. .. . .....:unsure: :unsure:

:blink:

Finally! A kitchen tip that is truly going to be a godsend for me. I now believe that Mary Anne should be moved onto the shortlist for Sainthood:

survived the midterm from hell. Don't know if I passed. Even the hotshots were on the message board saying one particular problem was really really hard and took like half the time. Prof posted last night that it wasn't that hard and he expected most people would get a lot of points :blink: . whatever

may be going out tonight with the girls. Waiting for a quorum.

Oh Careen is making a yummy dinner- can I come over?

Obviously, you did this all wrong. When my eyes are glued shut for 3 days, I will have a rope to follow to get me to the bathroom.

Gianknit :lol: :lol: But would you trust Skeeter and Smackl to not move that rope on you to say...the back porch.

"Hey honey, why is our neighbor peeing on her back porch with her eyes closed?

"Which neighbor? Oh that one- yeah, she's the crazy one. Last week I saw her DRIVING wit her eyes closed. Ah- just let her pee in peace Margaret!"

Em- you are a brave and swarthykooky soul- I would not last 10 minutes with my eyes closed! Love the solicitor story :lol:

Why is it that men can fart and it's no big deal (to them), but it is considered unacceptable for women under 10 years old?

No way- let her RIPPPPPPPPPP!

Shroomie- Sorry about yer oven. Miss mary sounds like a handful- my aunt was still driving herself (very fast and badly) at 92. I tried following behind her in my car once and almost couldn't keep up. Hope I have that kick butt independent spirit when I'm older.

survived the midterm from hell.

may be going out tonight with the girls. Waiting for a quorum.

Congratulations Geoss!!!!!!! Now go get good and drunk on Grand marnier (with extra vodka!)

Oh....in case it has not been posted, I received word yesterday that our Suzzle has indeed gone to the house of billionaire's wife. She said to send word to Psillies- I think she said two nights. An adventure!

You're all invited. Pretty safe invite since most of you live a bit far to get here by supper. And because you are all a safe distance - I just got the best apple cinnamon donut holes from a local gluten-free bakery in town. Better than any donuts with wheat bits I've had. Makes you suspicious of whats really in them? I'm afraid it is something addictive.

Big Radiant Mailbox

Burly Robed Messenger

Bob's Red Mill

Finally found the Burly Robed Messenger's Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal. Just made some for lunch as I still have a headache (may be gluten withdrawl). Loved it! Its a cross between Cream of Wh#@t & Oatmeal, 2 of my old favorites. On to the chocolate as it replaces the endorphins my brain is supposedly missing.

Kurt turns 40 on Saturday. Shhhh, he still doesn't know!

Hi Lisa!!! (we will need to come up wif a silly spelling of yer name....it's required ;) )

She will always be Lisa Goosey. 'Sides.....she can't have any of my psilly spellings :P

HI!!!

Hi back!

But my girl is okay, THANK GOD!! Just some surface injuries......

Good to hear. :)

Think of it as a lesson in survival of the fittest. Weezer has met every challenge and survived.....she's one tough cookie!

It's a miracle our chilins make it to adulthood, what with all the 'challenges' we put them through :ph34r:

JoDog hates vacuums . . . She won't even eat if I've been vacuuming and have left the vacuum cleaner too close to her food bowl (and by too close, I mean within 10 feet). Sometimes she can't get to her bowl because she would have to step over the cord to the vacuum (or even just walk next to it). Sometimes we use the vacuum to block her into the "office" when we have someone over that doesn't like dogs . . . works as good as a baby gate.

Hmmmm.......I think you're on to something. Zeus is the same way. He also is askeert of helium filled milar balloons. Why have I been bothering with baby gates all these years? :rolleyes:

Milar ballons tied to the vacuum cleaner! I think I'm onto somphin! :D

Headed over wif Skeeter to see your GI . . . perhaps he could come up with another miracle . . . t'would only help his case for sainthood.

Did I ever tell y'all about one of Nathan's friends who has an uncle who was trying to become a saint? She visited Nate in the hospital and brought a charm thingy from his robe.....forget what it was called. It was attached to something that belonged to Nathan......his shoe, actually. This was to bring a miracle for Nathan. The uncle only needed 1 more miracle to become a saint.

So I guess he's a saint now!!! :D:D:D

AND.. . .. ....his first name is Joseph. So, he was my GI Joe. :rolleyes:

:lol:

Why is it that men can fart and it's no big deal (to them), but it is considered unacceptable for women under 10 years old? My stomach is making the most hideous noises right now and anyone within 15 feet of me can hear it and must know what needs to be done, yet I sit here with an upset stomach and perma-flexed cheeks to prevent the "unthinkable" <_<:lol: :lol:

Tis not fair!

Funny to be around Deaf people who think you can't hear them fart :lol:

Oh....in case it has not been posted, I received word yesterday that our Suzzle has indeed gone to the house of billionaire's wife. She said to send word to Psillies- I think she said two nights. An adventure!

Yay!!!!!!!! can't wait for a report! :P

Been catchin up here and I noticed that, evidently, Grand Marnier cures everything, no?

Now that hubby is on second shift, I can watch what I want on TV......harder to get away to keep up with me psillies :P

Did I ever tell you that when the kids are flying kites or when a hot-air balloon flies over our neihborhood (take-off site not too far from our house) that we have to keep JoDog inside? She barks and barks and jumps in the air trying to catch one.

Skeeter update . . . testing that was done by the arse GI came back clean . . . had to find out through my pediatrician though. Pediatrician contacted the arse allergist that we saw over two years ago about what he check her for. I don't know if you remember this, but he could tell by looking at her that he only needed to check her for environmental allergens. He also told me to challenge the celiac disease diagnosis because . . . wait for it . . . "the diet is too hard" . . . ummm, yeah, that's the reason you should challenge the diagnosis. Anyway, pediatrician is ramping up to order some diagnostics so we can light a fire under the appropriate specialists. I like her . . . she's very much of an "I'm in it with you" kind of person.

It's the only parameter that the affected individual or their family members have control over. We need to learn to become "politely pushy" in order to get proper testing done when...

About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease...

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Fruits & Veggies

      By Jordan Carlson · Posted

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
