Perhaps you have to help your sick friend in Kansas? or Texas? or Portland? Maybe all three?

My son is having a World Cup party at his house.......

I'm having my house painted. They were suppose to start tomorrow . . . in fact they WILL start tomorrow but only with a partial crew. The rest wanted off because of the World Cup. Come noon, I lose even the few guys that showed up in the morning. B) It's all good . . . I got a pretty good deal so I'm flexible.

Last man standing! Wobbling is acceptable. :P

But they weeble and they wobble and they don't fall down! :)

Wait... . . ... . Korwyn has divulged that he does not follow football either... . .. . . . ..

Um... . . World Series of soccer?

.. .... . ...Triple Crown?

.. .. . . ... .Smackdown?

:rolleyes:

Isn't triple crown a whiskey? :) I like UFC/MMA, and baseball. Rugby is more interesting to me than football. But...since we don't have Cable or Satellite TV I don't watch much of any of them. :D

She drives the car to the airport. Takes all the keys with her. Or she could make a grand tour. Stop in Boston, Indiana, then KC, then Texas, then California, Portland, etc. I know I left a few out. She could pick us up as she goes. It could be the Psilly Grand Tour. B)

Yes, I am the closest to Em. Find your way to the 416, follow it to the 401 and head west. Fastest way is to take the 404 north and then come east on 16th Avenue. Shorter, but slower, you can get off the 401 at Kennedy Rd and come north. Then, from here, the shortest distance to almost anywhere in the States is west. Lake Ontario kind of gets in the way. ;)

We have an overnight guest this evening. Depending on how he gets along with the other residents, he may be invited to stay longer. He is ten weeks old and pure black with short hair. If he stays, his name will be Bagheera. :)

Please keep that here and don't say anything on FB. :ph34r:

That's right. She'll have to pick me up first. He might as well join us.

Closet purge has been accomplished. I went with the fairly conservative "If you haven't worn it in eight years, it goes" rule.

I had a Maine Coone mix. 'Puffball'. He was a very long hair cat, and when he was a kitten he would curl up in the palm of my hand and tuck his nose under his tail, close his eyes, and he would look like a giant dandelion puff because his fur would stick out every which way. He grew up to be a 24# monster cat. :) He passed away about 7 years ago. He was also one of the most talkative cats I've every had, and he hated it when I would sing. He would get up on my chest, stare me in the eye and chirp at me. If I didn't stop after two or three chirps (he'd give me about 20 seconds or so) he would - very gently at first - bite me under the chin. He would continue to chirp and bite harder until I would stop singing. :D If I played my harmonica he would flip out and attack my feet, or one of the other cats. One time he ran out of the apartment and jumped off the balcony into a bush. Which scared me since I lived on the second floor! He was fine though.

His brother brought a live bat into the house (before the apartment) in the middle of the night, turned it lose, and turned the house into a madhouse with me chasing a crazed bat and three crazed cats around my house in my underwear at one in the morning with a broom handle! It wasn't until afterwards that I realized my kitchen window curtain was open and my kitchen window was only about 10 feet away from my neighbor's kitchen window. I spent the rest of the night waiting for the cops to show up, and the next week wondering if they were going to make some comment to me about it. Apparently either they weren't up - or they just decided they really, really, didn't want to get involved! :D :D

Korwyn's bat! :blink::lol:

We have good friends in Australia, and some years ago they sent us a pic of them standing somewhere (Ayers Rock? The Outback? Canna remember). . . . .....and they were each standing with one arm outstretched. Perched on their arms were two HUGE, black bats, hanging upside down, big black eyes, enormous snouts and wings tucked in. They were the size of Maine coons, I believe. These bats are around this area, quite gentle and tame... . . ...dear gawd.:unsure:

Shroomie, whot can you tell us about these incredible, somewhat repulsive creatures?

Good thing you do not live in this part of Australia, Korwyn. Methinks the neighboUrs would not have been hesitating to call the authorities..... . .....:rolleyes:

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos.  I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

      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!
    • deanna1ynne
      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).
    • Gigi2025
      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.
