That can't be right - I'm not that old!

On the other hand......

just took the RealAge test and they told me not to worry about my real age, just count my blessings I'm still here :lol:

Hey, I'm not dead yet.

hmmm, it told me I need to eat more grains.

... .. This is my MIL talking, staring at me across the kitchen table, eyes narrowed, lips in a thin line... . . . ...<_<

.... I need to get a dog and to spend more time on myself.

.. . ..Well, two things MIL would never say to me.. .. .. :rolleyes:

OMG. . . .. ....DD just came running up the stairs. She's come from her bedroom where she was lying in bed, browsing through FB on her ipod. There is apparently an application within FB called "Nearby Places", and it shows you, quite literally, commercial shops, restaurants and places of interest that are within a few miles' radius of where you are. She typed in our address and waited for a list.

Up came the gas station on the corner, the nearby college, the nearby museum, and at the bottom of the list.... . . . ...

"My bed".

:huh:

:lol:

She leaped out of her bed, yelling all the way up the stairs "Aaaaaaagh! How did it know I was in my BED??!"

:unsure:

How DID it know?

She is in the kitchen now. .. . . ... ..we'll see what listing comes up. . .... :rolleyes:

I see a reverse application for this "finder". My boys have gps to locate the phones but it only tells me approximately which house they are in. Using this technology from fb, it could tell me "in girls bed" " in garage beer fridge" "in basement playing video games cause they couldn't get any girls or beer"

Yeah, i've seen the 'find places' but have declined thus far (only certain browsers are doing it so far)

Do I really want the world to know where I am?? unsure.gif ....must look into this...

OK,.... you know how you can get complacent about the whole gluten-free thing, and kind of forget how serious it was (IS)??

Tel (for the first time since dx ....oh 6 yrs ago) tried REAL porridge oats yesterday (not millet!)

They were verified gluten-free - grown AND milled seperately from any wheat source.

Less than 5 ppm.

Holy heck - NEVER have I seen such an extreme reaction ohmy.gif

2 hrs after he got the 'fire hydrants'

...then the vomiting like the exorcist started sad.gif (Just tell me if it's tmi!)

I have read for some cOeliacs, their immune system mistakes the protein 'Avenin' in oats as Gluten?

He's ok today - just a lingering headache wacko.gif

THE most extreme reaction Iz EVAH seen in him!!!!

Oye Nik--for Tel, the oats were probably the same as eating a bowl of wheat and thus the dramatic reaction. :( He's one of the unlucky ones (as am I) who can nae tolerate oats--even the pure kind. This condition is so freakin frustrating sometimes....what works fer one doesn't necessarily work for another <_<

Hope he pheels better as the day goes on :)

Gnick! Poor Tel... . . . . ....how awful for the two of you. I seem okay with oats labelled gluten-free....I'm a lucky one. But I think DH reacts to them, so I cannot be throwing them into baking recipes, hamburger, etc. :angry:

Hmm...... .. wonder if FB Places could tell me where my keys and/or sunglasses are? Or where in hell those two socks are, the ones that are mates to those odd two that came out of this morning's wash... . . . . . ...

We have a black ankle style men's sock with 3 small white stripes. No one in our family has ever had any like this. Does it belong to you?

No, I do not have the mate to this sock.. . . . ..however, FB Places told me that it is behind your couch.

Then it went on to tell me that this pair of socks belongs to Angela's boyfriend (our urinating friend, I assume).

Facebook can be an amazing place, methinks!

Well, I think we know why she has not responded NOW..... . ... .. ..hell, her boyfriend's sock is behind your couch! Now, wouldn't anybody be just a little...well... .... ... . . suspicious? Somewhat....reluctant to befriend a woman who is in possession of their partner's thrown-off apparel?

Kherrighnne, you need to message her - - explain everything. Whatever the story is... . .no one here needs to know. Just mend the fences.

And since she is in Newfoundland, you can courier her the boyfriend's sock inexpensively. He may really want it back.

I'm afraid if message her again, she will call the police, or FBI or who ever is in charge of international cyber stalking. Thank goodness this web site never erases any old posts. I can show them we were all in this together! Think we could be cell mates? :huh:

All right. Let's look at this photo again.

Now, WHAT is that black thing in the lower left corner? Look closely... . ... . .....

It's a sock.

Methinks a short, man's sock.

What does this mean??

Wait....it's a fairly big black pile......it is a pair of black socks.

So I think that FB Places is full of crap.... . . .. . .in fact, that errant black sock behind your couch, Kherrighnne, does NOT belong to Angela's boyfriend. He's got both of them! We can clearly see them, in Angela's hospital room. He must have been visiting her, and took his socks off to trim his nails.

Gawd, I'm SO glad I figured all this out.

:huh:

Although, I am greatly amused by all the FBI/sock talk :P

Well pholks.....so much fer a brand new apartment :angry: :angry: :angry: The dryer isn't working right and we got home tonight and the fridge/freezer wasn't working. Had to toss some stuff and Mark took some to his office where there is a fridge. I'm mopping up the soggy mess now <_<

Not the only screw up, we phound out today either. They got some 'splanin to do....

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
