So, listen, Psills. . . . ....we are currently talking about our summer holiday this year. Last year we stayed put, so we're thinking of going somewhere not terribly far away, likely in July. The problem with being in Canada is this: EVERYTHING, even the grocery store, is far away :rolleyes:. Will and I wanna go away just the two of us, and there is a window of time mid-summer when both kids will be at camp.

I need some great ideas! We have been seriously considering New Orleans. I cannot believe I have not found my way there yet, as the music of the French Quarter just does something to me - - it plays through my soul. ANNNNNND..... . .. . ..Patteigh!! We will be, what, a three-hour drive from youse guys?? Or is it more than that? Hmm. . . ... . . .I'd be dealing with some oppressive heat, but no worse than here during mid-summer.

Or, we could venture out to the East Coast....Newfoundland, as we've never been. Which Psillies are below The Rock? Who could we be takin' out fer drinks while there?

Decisions, decisions. . . . . ...

Tis easy, really!

Just push Alt and a number, and see what you get! You do need to highlight and increase the size, as they show up rather small.

Nothin happens on the dungeon compooter. Someday, when the beautiful new computer is working, maybe then...... Have to wait for a new disc to connect to to internet. Old disc is too old.

We could ALL meet at Paghteeigh's! Paht, what a generous offer.. . . ....if we come down there, we will absolutely come to visit you, and take in the sites of Houston. We will find a great, cheap hotel that serves free cocktails and snacks at 5 pm and rendezvous there, as we did in Philly! Depending on how long our trip is, we could do two or three days in Texas -- you could guide us as to what to see. Certainly Sam Bighead!

Yep, driving . . . no trunk, it's a minivan. The back seat will be down cuz we haul a hellavu lot of stuff with us. You can just stretch out on top of the suitcases, coolers, bins of pool toys, fishing gear, towels, gluten-free food, med kit, etc. Just make sure that you roll to the right or left as needed so hubby can see out the back window. :P

The weather has been SOOOOOOO amazing this weekend! I took the kids on a 10 mile bike ride this afternoon, I had a great time..... then I pulled a "great mommy move" and drove between 2 cement posts, welllll, Max is on a tagalong behind my bike and I got a little too close to one of the posts on my back end, slamming his handlebars into the post crushing 2 of his fingers. I don't think they're broken, but he also won't let me get close enough to see. Sooze, I'm one up on you for "mommy of the year" :rolleyes:

We are celebrating my birthday today since I work a 12 on my actual birthday, so my hubby has attempted to make me a gluten-free, vegan dessert, it looks interesting enough, and contains dark chocolate and coconut, so I'm sure I will have it finished by the end of the night :lol: And I'm eating pizza for the first time in months!! However, Maddie informed me, "you know it's not really pizza if it has no cheese! Like you can't call an omlette "omlette" without cheese....!"

smart-a$$

:lol: I'm still three or so pages behind but........wait until we teach her our magic symbols :lol: :lol:

No freakin way, tis that's all it is????? Wait, where's the ALT button.......

Damn flippin laptop. Apparently ALT-1 is "return to top of screen <_<

Mornin' Patti . . . and everybody else.

I just wanted to report that a miracle did occur last night . . . Smackl asked for more broccoli.

Must be sumphin in the water, Max did the same thing!!! You know, they say you have to offer a child a food 5x before they will try it. Well, Max has been offered steamed broccoli at least once a week for the last 4 years (cuz we all love it!!), so x52 weeks a year, that kid's been offered broccoli over 200x, and NOW he eats it :rolleyes:

We are trying to figure this out too. I'm actually leaning towards renting a house on Martha's Vineyard for the week. We should get a house together on the beach ;)

WAAAIIITTTT!!!!! I have a great idea! Our other option (which the kids want to do) is to go to Lake Shasta and rent a houseboat. It would be SUPER-COOL if we planned sumphin like that, one of those big 24-sleeper boats with the slides and hot tub, all the gluten-free food you can stand....OMG that would be so much fun!!

I gotta go try that dessert now.....

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
