He's not on the web. He's also Maine Coonish (with the most adorable chirp :wub: )

He looks a bit like Open Original Shared Link, maybe a little darker.

Had a lovely time!!

You's all are makin me sad, I can't have kitties... even when I try to take medication every day after a while I end up with such bad asthma I can't do anything. :( I love kitties.... But someday I'll have an apartment or house where I can have a dog, and I'll find me a rescue hair dog! I want a floppy one. With big floppy ears and big paws. :wub:

My Cooper has big floppy ears and large feet but fur not hair. I was determined to get a light colored one and a girl. Got another black boy dog. Eh! Didn't get him for me, got him so my then 12 year old would not be depressed. It worked and he's sweet.

So me and my kitteh went everywhere together :wub:

I actually want a much bigger dog than that. Maybe a labradoodle? I have no idea, I will probably go around looking for a rescue pet when the time comes. I just know I want a big floppy hair dog!

Some Labradoodles are showing up in rescue around here. You'll get one when the time is right.

Well have a nice time tonight Bun. I used to get very tired at that time of the month too--something I do not miss at all :D

Me neither! Only......extremely tired anyway <_<

I think it's been worse since my multi-vitamin has been discontinued :(

Going to see about getting my vitamin levels checked this week. And I need to spend some time searching for a better replacement than what I am currently using.

Starting up salsa lessons again :D The Beginner salsa 2 class was cancelled halfway through....waited for the next one to come around.....nobody showed. So the instructor suggested I try the intermediate class.....he said he was certain I could handle it. Found out later it was intermediate 3! Challenging but fun :D

Jewelry class was filled, but another one should be starting soon :)

Good luck with the new realtor Patteigh!

Is Jan-knit visiting Bev-or-leigh????? :huh:

Jess is getting kitteh(s)!!!!

Sounds like you're having some fun. Post a pic of the jewelry when you make some. I wonder if we have those classes here? I might like that.

Hi Leesiugh! :D

The only vitamin I've tried that I can tolerate is the Everyday Multi by Kirkman Labs. I would rather not have to send away for them, but there wasn't much choice and I was wasting a lot of money on ones that I couldn't use.

I think Jan-it and Bevvy are hoping to meet up whilst Jan-it and her phamily are there. Hope so :)

Are you done wif school fer the summer? So happy to see you're planning on the jewelry class!!

Yup....been out for a couple of weeks.

I'll check your vitamins out. Mine had some pretty high doses of certain vitamins and was pretty cheap.....bought them at Wal-mart.

I saw on Phacebook that DS was interviewed on KTRE whilst picking blueberries at a blueberry festival. Did you see him Patteigh? B)

Well, my fat a$$ had a great time at the party yesterday and I just ate myself into oblivion! Why not add to the arse?! The cakes went over great, my mom cried when she saw hers. She said she couldn't remember the last time someone made her a cake :o It shall be my mission from now on to make sure she always has a beautiful cake for her birthday!

We cannae go out and enjoy this amazingly beautiful day because the kids were rolling down the grassy hills in my mom's backyard for hours yesterday and now poor Max's phace is all swollen and red and his eyes look like they've been bleeding! I gave him some Claritin, so we'll see how long it takes to work :(

Maybe: "Middle School Boys Locker Room"

That'd do it fer me!!

Yep

:lol::lol::lol:

That's what I thought <_<:P

'k janit. mebbe when you come back from vacation you cn borrow one a Ra-chel's fat a$$ outfits

Sure! Apparently I have quite the selection :rolleyes:

Stopped at paws and filled out an application for Bilbo. He has a fungal infection so he's probably two weeks out, which is fine, and also met Oliver :wub: :wub: . I told the lady that if Ollie is still around when Bilbo is ready, that they should put them together and see if they get along. If they do well (not just ignore each other) then I would consider them both.

Well of course you had to get 2--I really want one and I can't have one and I LURVE the name Ollie, so he must me the kitten-britches that I cannae have so he must live with you!! :D

Jewelry class was filled, but another one should be starting soon :)

I shall live vicariously thru you! I wanna take some classes like that!! Maybe when Max starts school....

My lovely FIL and wife are coming back into the country to "settle things" in thier house here. They expect we and other son who lives in town will come help them put a 7000 sq foot house's contents in storage and will take the things they don't want and be grateful for them. :blink: They have been out since Nov but left pantry items as well as most of the furniture, etc. :blink: I have decided to take whatever good stuff I can get and give it away. (Hub agrees). Not sure what FIL will think of this but if my family must help, we should be able to do what we want with the stuff he is getting rid of. My neighbor's mom has some of her students families she helps & will get me a wish list. Hopeing we get some good stuff!

Wouldn't mind so much but the only time he ever called us, even when living 3 mile away, was if he wanted a favor.

Thanks for letting me vent! Matt's back from camp & they had a day of silence. To help them not talk, they had a little stick you could put in your mouth (think dog with bone hanging out). Will be borrowing that this weekend.

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein. Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat...

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3. Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C. Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine. Weight...

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress.

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
