A video of what? Usually people put the camera on a tripod near the bed

and don't need a full camera crew. Or so I've heard.

I'll probably just stay out of the way :P

OK.....gotta little time to give y'all an update. Thanksgiving went well. Our current household consists of 5 people, and my brother came. We always have turkey with my famous praline sweet potatoes....converted to gluten-free of course. Since last year, new favorites have become tradition.....homemade creamed corn and peanut butter pie. I also added seasoned green beans.

Of course......I couldn't eat the sweet potatoes or pie :( Well.....I did take one small taste of the pie Thursday and one Friday. That was enough for a reaction, but not too terrible.

What's kept me so busy lately is that DD and I are doing a major household clean-out. Trying to make this place look more organized with so many people. OK....so 5 isn't really that many, but it's 2 families......and babies take up sooo much space! I don't chill until 11:00 most nights.

Annnd.....then maybe we'll be ready when DS and wife come to visit for a week right before Christmas :)

Feeling yucky yesterday and today.....something I ate. Either CC or another food intolerance. Pretty sure it's the latter. Going to make an app't with an allergist when I get off here. Been putting it off way too long.

My arm still gives me trouble, but it doesn't keep me from dancing. I suppose I should do the exercises I was told to do. :rolleyes: Right after I get done scrubbing floors, raking leaves, and hefting stuff into the attic :P

Thanks fer the update, Leesugh. Great news on N and M's visit--you'll have a really full house for Christmas! :D I love it that you'll all get to be together!! :D :D :D

And.....do yer arm exercises, young lady! ;) Ya know, after you heft stuff and everything :lol:

They could be just sending one guy over with a hand-held... . . .. he can brace the boom mic in the other hand. Dio you have a script to memorize, Paghteigh? Fortunately there isn't usually too much dialogue in these videos.... . .. .none, often.

Or so I am told. . . . . ..

You forgot to mention the pets: the ghost and the rodents. Both of which I like as pets. I could help you pick out the right dog.

Gah! Wonder how much I could get it for. . . . . ...... . been looking for that perfect piece to hang over my living room mantle - - sounds like I could be on its trail. . .. . ..!

:huh:

:lol:

I am hoping to get it myself, thank-you. The guy is real class act photographer, name of Barry Schmetter. He does large format photography. The pic is similar to this one on his site:

I wish Barry had a picture of his camera on his website. It is bigger than he is! Weighs 300 lbs or so with a cast iron and wood frame, like 1890 or so studio cameras. Tripod frame with locking wheels so you can roll it around, really a neat camera.

The auction info is here, at the ArtDc site. They are allowing phone in bidders from overseas as well, with pre-arrangement.

So lets see, I can put in a proxy bid for M-lee starting at say $3 million USA dollars? No problem, I got cha covered on the bidding M-Lee. I plan to show leettle interest myself and keep my bid under a $100 bucks, but if you wanna bee a beeg spendur, no problemo at all. :D I think a vermet monkey skull plate would look great above your fireplace! :D :D :D

Glad you feel better.

Eeyore has nice big eyes.

Don't forget to keep your shoes or boots on throughout the production. I think it is best to glue them on just in case the action gets too lively! And for gosh sakes smile once in a while so we can see you still have teeth! Lets, see what are we going to rate this film? 1 star, 2 stars, 3 stars or?

Eyore is downright homerly! But cute too. :D

Ok. so this Santa doesn't show up well but I was trying to show his kilt and bagpipes. This pic does show the color of my dining room wall well (at least on my computer).

The office party is next Wed after work. My brother & his wife are going to be here all next week but about the only time we can see them is Sunday for lunch. So of course, I have to make lunch. My SIL has alot of allergies/intolerances to food so it works best to make a meal I can separate into ingredients. I think tacos. The meat can be separate. The cheese is added if you want, etc. Just need lots of bowls.

And wash lots of bowls :huh:

LO! Sounds like your ulcer is eating you up! Is Clark going to the doc with you? Might help to have someone to speak up for you or ask questions you might not be thinking of until after. Also, write some notes to take.

Hey all--just got the call that they are on the way. Lets see....spurs-check....boots-check....eyes open-check......what else should I know?? B)

I did bake a batch of chocolate chip cookies--Mark's boss is seems fascinated with my food and is all excited to try gluten-free cookies :lol: Early on, he asked Mark if he ate "my food" and Mark said--yeah, all the time. The boss asked--"is it....bland ? <snort> :lol:

Carry on :D

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.
    • Colleen H
      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      EXACTLY! I was asked yesterday on my LAST video call with Standford and I stated exactly yes absolutely this is why I need the name! One, get proper care, two, not get worse.Im falling apart, stressed out, in pain and just opened email from Stanford stating I was rude ect.I want that video reviewed by higher ups and see if that women still has a job or not.Im saying this because I've been medically screwed and asking for help because bills don't pay itself. This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
