Goodness! I slept zero hours last night. It's cool and all to see our hotel is a very tall round tower, but you add some wind and rain whipping around that building and yous gets a LOT of noise. I'm now on the boat, about to have to turn my lifeline off and we pick the ONLY seats behind a family of 2 SCREAMING children and their obnoxious baby talking parents and grandparents. The kids are not babies.... I just took 2 motion sickness pills and have no idea what they will do to me, we were too late for me to get my coffee t

Hmmm, wonder what happened there.... I think my phone was trying to hold onto me for dear life and maybe posted twice...? I discovered Jesse's blackberry works just great- thank God! I'm just cheating my way thru the NY times crossword ;). Haven't seen the screaming kids for a while. Maybe dad took them up and threw em overboard....

Just got back from a PT appt. Does anyone else spend all their doctor's appointments laughing hysterically?

Used to . . . at the OBGYN of all places . . . but she left to become a lawyer. Now most doc appts end with me swearing.

I think I shall try to nap--that or laugh watching the woman across from me scowling in disdain regarding these 2 kids. Wonder if I can get away with taking a pic of her.....

Uh oh, iPhone has to go ni-night right now. Love you all, pray we make it alive on this "big boat, yes it is, isn't this a big, big boat" <gag>

It is quiet here. I'm just about done for the day at work, and then when I get home we resume the battle of wits with Riley. We think we're going to have to tether her, which we have not done since 2005. But she seems determined to get around, over, or under the gate. :(

I have six harnesses of various sizes and shapes in the car. We'll see.

J had a phone last school year that would call me during social studies class. I could listen in to the class. It never calls me so I can listen in on a party or a date. :angry:

You must do what you need to for her protection. Good that she hasn't gotten the other kitties to follow her.

Gads, I wish my butt would hang up on me.. . ......or not hang at ALL -- that and me boobs.. . . . ..<_<

Rah-shyellle's ferry adventures! :lol:

Quite the developments o'er here...... . . .with all that's been happening with me mom and life generally, I haven't mentioned here the adventure we've been having with our visiting mouse. A couple of weeks ago, I noticed mouse poop in the small cupboard where we keep the dog food and treats. My husband jumped at this challenge, and rigged up two old-fashioned mouse traps with Cheese Whiz, and we spent the first two nights waiting to hear the "SNAP!" of a direct hit. Nothing. Our little friend (and I just KNEW it was one mouse, somehow -- I even named him... . ....Gerald) was quite an admirable opponent.. . . .....each morning we were discovering the blob of cheese having been nibbled just around the edges, like he knew to avoid the middle part that would trigger the trap. I remain veritably impressed.

Then DH tried peanut butter, figuring that it was stickier and Gerald would have trouble pulling away if the metal trap was set off. During the next few nights, we heard the trap "SNAP" twice, and those nights I lay there thinking, "dear gawd........ . . ..I hope it got him right across the neck so that he has died instantly -- no flipping around for hours with the trap snapped across his nose"......

And both mornings, I found both traps snapped, most of the peanut butter gone, and NO MOUSE. This is one kick-ass, you-don't-know-who-you're-dealing-with little bloke. DH is getting more and more p!ssed off.

Over the last couple of days I have been imagining what has been happening to Gerald.... . . .... . indeed, if it is only him reaping these culinary delights, he's likely getting a bit chunky.

Last night, DH, exasperated and vowing that he will not let any silly little rodent get the best of him, slathered BOTH Cheese Whiz and PB on both traps, carefully set them, and placed them carefully on the cupboard floor, trembling with anticipation and the thrill of potential victory.

Well.... . . . we heard the "SNAP" just after midnight. "Ahhhhh..... . . I GOT him...... . I just KNOW it!!!".......DH whispered as we lay there.

This morning I opened the cupboard door, and honest to gawd, I saw THE most horrifically obese mouse one could ever imagine... . . . he looked like a big, furry tennis ball with a long tail. Good thing the trap got him across the back of the head, as his body had gotten so huge it would not have fit in the trap.

:blink:

:lol:

RIP, Gerald. Due to your enormity, I now know that it was you alone, the solitary renegade, carefully and cleverly avoiding the lethal trap for so long, and reaping all those spoils.. . . . . . ....

I guess there's a lesson there, somewhere. ........ . . . .... . . .poor, fat Gerald. . ....!

Poor Gerald - he died fat and happy! At least you know there are not more.

At M's summer nature day camp he attended for 6 years as a camper & 1 as a helper: They set big cage traps at night with lots of PB and pretzels or apples. They catch usually a racoon sometimes a possum. The kids all look at it & then M takes it into the woods & lets it go. They started getting the same raccoon (had a nick in his tail) every night no matter where they put the trap. He didn't hiss, just sat quietly until released. He seemed to enjoy the cuisine.

Sounds like he looked at it as a slight inconvenience for a midnight snack....

Methinks you actually caught Geraldine . . . a pregnant Geraldine . . . lucky you did before you had lots of little Geralds and Geraldines running about.

We had a mouse once when the kids were quite small and I was reluctant to put out a snap trap in fear of snapping toddler fingers or toes. I set out a humane trap (keeps them alive) before bed, announced to the kitchen as a whole "You have 24 hours to give yourself up or I WILL BUY a snap trap". He surrendered by the time I got up in the morning. Smackl (probably 2 1/2 at the time) and hubby escorted him out into the woods and released him.

I kept staring at the name of this section of the forum and couldn't figure out what silly yaks meant.

DOH!!!

Today a girl at work gave me a recipe for black bean brownies and no, i'm not making that up. She eats gluten but has a friend that doesn't and said they are delicious.

Hmm.... .I need one 'o those set in my kitchen every night before bed, right by the fridge door.. . . perhaps then I wouldn't venture in there @ midnight. . . . ....my kids could let me out of the cage each morning.... . . .<_<

Me too! It's like the legumes sit around planning a chance to get inside my body and create havoc, and once they make it in, all HAIL breaks loose!!!

OK.. youse guys are scaring me. Was going to have a veggie mix with black beans in it. Now I look at the picture and see evil faces on the beans. Wait, is that slices of onions or little white machine guns?

Something else I was going to say but can't see the posts & didn't not do speedy reply.

I wonder what it is about them? A few other things will give me digestive problems, but legumes are different. Different even from gluten.

There's a Weight Watchers recipe that uses black beans instead of (most of) the oil, er sumptin' like that. I'm sorry, but that just does NOT sound appealling. Black beans do NOT belong in desserts.

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
