......and me FIL. He castrates his dogs himself :ph34r:

Me uncle, the politician, raises lambs for meat. He castrates those himself after they're born with strong rubberbands. You have to watch out if yer walking thru the pasture in spring, might step on 'em :unsure:

If he really wanted to kill himself, he picked the wrong place to do it :rolleyes:

Word on the street right now is that he stood outside the ER doors, lit up and then ran inside to the triage desk where they all ran for extinguishers to put him out. It is a non-smoking hospital after all... :ph34r:

How bout the Kinks song Lola L o l a Lola.

Cannae hear that song wifout thinking of Wierd Al. Cola, C O L A, cola :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Now that's scary. Glad you didn't see it. Could your runny eyes still have something to do with that even if the air smells clean?

Nope, started in the car on the way in. Had a bloody nose too....

Low-ihss! That little emoticon signifies the desire to stand in front of a net and block pucks, as it looks very like my daughter's face when she stands in full helmeted and padded regalia, staring down the opposing forward as she comes screaming down the ice toward her.. . . .... . :rolleyes:

Actually, it really DOES look like her li'l face.. . . . . ....! :lol:

Also looks like my widdle Maxie all dressed up in his ninja costume :ph34r:

Halloooooo, Dyckseigh!

Hey.. . . . . . ....is he single? Think he and my MIL might be a match made in heaven. . . . . ..

However, MIL swerves to avoid pedestrians and animals, and has been unsuccessful on occasion. At least it has never been while she was driving MY car. She has only smashed into the kids' bikes, our big lamp-post, DH's car and many snowbanks while in my vehicle... . . . . ..no people as yet, so I am considered pretty fortunate. :huh:<_<

I've never killed an animal (or hit one in a road). We almost hit a tree during a trip to Sedona to avoid hitting a coyote. Got a great photo of the coyote.

I'm feeling guilty about the rabbit but my husband was really excited when he came home and I told him what I made for dinner. It was a large part of his childhood. He was there as a toddler for a few years and then his mother sent him there to go to school at a missionary while she was getting a divorce (from 11-14). He lived at the missionary but stayed with family friends on the weekend and rabbit was was a treat because they were poor and lived on paella and bread. I was lucky enough to go there twice. Once when I was pregnant with my son and then when our son was 5. Kindest people in the world. I didn't speak a lick of spanish and had to pantomime everything (my hubby got frustrated translating).

OK, time to fold my last load of laundry (3rd of the day) and then feed him the stew.

Thanks for helping me feel less guilty. I like it here too much to offend anyone. I did discover that whatever I put in the stew does not sit well with me (it tasted SO good) but caused me a lot of pain. I tried to only add food that weren't known triggers but I must have missed something. Back to rice, veggies and eggs. Stand stand the smell or taste of chicken right now. He's going to have a lot of it to eat!

I also SO wish I could have seen Obama with you. When Clinton was in office my brother was able to get us into the Easter Egg Roll at the White House. Two years ago our son went to the OSS Dinner and the Cocktail Hour for the White House Correspondent's Dinner (he was a junior in HS and was so proud that he took the train there alone both weekends). They would have normally been able to get him into the dinner but because so many people wanted to see Obama they only had tickets for the cocktail party. Tony (my son) actually enjoyed the OSS dinner more. The food was the best part of it. He said it was the best Filet Mignon he ever ate and they had amazing duck rolls.

He met General Petrakis and a retired General was at the same table and had Tony do as many pushups as he could (in his tuxedo). He tried to recruit him.

OK, time to watch a movie with my hubby. "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown"It's in Spanish but it's very good (if you don't mind reading a movie).

Have a great nite everyone. I'll be back online tomorrow or Sunday. My son called and said that a group of parents are going out to dinner with the kids at his school tomorrow night and he wants us to come. Pleasant surprise because he's been pretty aloof and independent. Changed my whole day around so we can do it.

Loey biggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gif Happy that I'm seeing my son two weekends in a row!!!

I don't have either of those accounts. You'll just have to take my word for it that he's a handsome kid.

I'd love him to hook up with Emma Watson (from Harry Potter) at school. I think I mentioned he saw her on campus and said she was even more gorgeous in person. I asked him if he said hello and he replied "Mooom, she doesn't need people bothering her. She's there to go to school. Enough people bother her as it is!" I thought that was pretty sensitive for an 18 year old boy with raging hormones.

He LOVED it!!! It was nice to cook him something special because I haven't been cooking as frequently since I had the flare (that's what I call it when the intense pain comes back). I still can't believe I have to wait another 3 weeks for the next procedure. I moved to a REALLY small town. It's beautiful here but the hospital is really tiny. At least I have this forum to help me and keep me laughing and learning.

I also just signed up for a painting class that meets once a week at an art studio. That should provide some really funny stories here. I'm great with beading and a lot of other crafts but I've never picked up a paint brush. I could always give whatever I paint to someone I don' like for Xmas if it doesn't turn out well. LOL It's a month by month commitment and she also teaches Fimo Clay which I suck at. Maybe I'll even meet some nice people at the class. It's lonely to be in a new town and state and be sick and housebound most of the time.

Loey biggrin.gif

P.S. I also met a family at the local Farmer's Market that home school the children and I noticed the girl (3rd grade) was using her fingers to count change. Her brother told me she was dyslexic. I saw the mother yesterday and offered to tutor her for free one day a week and would only ask for a letter of recommendation.

I'm fine with it. My husband likes venison.

Never had Venison. What does it taste like? I've hear it's good for you. I watch Gordon Ramsey's F Word and he cooks with it a lot. I tend to watch a lot of cooking shows since that's the only way I can enjoy foods i can't eat.

. Halloooooo, Dyckseigh!

I forgot to say high before either.

I've never killed an animal (or hit one in a road).

I have - dozens of em in fact. Driving back to CA from MN, through Wyoming. My turn at the wheel, Clay asleep having filled his tummy w/ dinner in Laramie, beyoutiphul landscape with the first fall of light snow and lovely sunset, and then the dark came :ph34r: :ph34r:. The speedometer on the car was broke, I80 was only two lanes through there at the time, and there was nothing out there on the road except me, the truckers and the jackrabbits :unsure: I was a fairly new driver, (really! late bloomer!) had no idea how fast I was going (or not going). So these @/&*^ truckers and I got into this kind of duel on the highway. They would go roaring past me on the flat, almost blowin me offin the road, and then I would have to pass them on the upgrades, risking life and limb. And all the while, there were these durned jackrabbits, just sitting there in the middle of the road with that headlighty look. And I said, danged if I's goin to swurve to avoid these stoopid critters and further risk life and limb, so every so often, BOOM!, there goes anuvver jackrabbit. And ya know what? I didn't even feel gillty about it neither :P I was just grippin the wheel and hangin on. And Clay stayed asleep till I woke him on the outskirts of SLC and said I weren't driving into the city, and we missed all the motels and found this scrungy one what had bedbugs :blink: so we got two or three hours of nonsleep and then hit the road again :rolleyes: Ah, the joys of highway travel. Stay tuned for the next episode entitled "The Agonies of Scrunching Yerself into an airline seat for 13 hours"

Loughie honey, you didn't offend anyone wif the rabbit :D;)

Hope yer hubby enjoys his dinner :)

Low-hiss, you can come to my house and cook rabbit anytime. For a country overrun with bluddy rabbits it's almost impossible to find one in the store because no one can raise em without swearing on a stack of bibles that they won't be released into the wild, or summit like that. And rabbit and goat is about all I ate in Italy - even then I wasn't eating pasta or gelato :(

OK, time to watch a movie with my hubby. "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown"It's in Spanish but it's very good (if you don't mind reading a movie).

That is my all-time favorite movie!! It is heelaryus!!!

Labour Weekend here, so one is forbidden to work. Might go to the local fair tomorrow and today I am going to make some florentines for my sister's visit - she adores them and I found a recipe in the food section of the paper. Of course because of the quake there are no dried cranberries in the stores so I had to get blueberries and cherries. Will let you know how they turn out.

Wishin' I could have rabbit for dinner :P

This past weekend we travelled to my cousin's place. The whole extended family was there, and my oldest cousin Ted owns a very successful small-town diner. It is successful because he prepares and serves very eclectic dishes. He prepared the entire dinner for 20 of us on the Saturday night. We were served barbequed kangaroo, emu and beefalo (buffalo and beef hybrid). He also roasted bear and caribou.

NONE of it tasted like chicken! :)

It is a very gamey, very bloody meat. My father is a hunter too and he always soaked his venison in salt water to get rid of some of the gamey-ness.

I had to stop eating it cause it made me run to the bathroom too much.

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.

      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. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

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.

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.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
