I'm sure I got stuff he can fix. Bring him when you come to get yer NikWax.

Turns out my baby was just goofing with his bro's welding mask. Baby M was building wood & metal shelves. Big bro J will weld the parts that need it. Love it when they learn practical skills.

Sometimes they just need to realize what they could lose. :P

Since both BE and I commute, the only time we could really go out is Saturday. Fridays he's not home until 8:30, which is late for me. I suppose dinner in Seattle would work, but he'd still have to drop me off at home, and then leave..... :ph34r::P :P Dunno. Have to think about this. Once the weather improves we can do weekend hikes n' stuff. Not such a fun prospect this time of year though.

I was the one who had crazy hours in the TV business. I would go to Clark's house on a Thursday night after work and go grocery shopping. Then quietly (most nights) crawl into bed. He'd be at work Friday but I saw him Friday night (either I would have cooked or we'd go out - believe me I saw early on that cooking wasn't his forte). Then I had to go to work on Saturday. He'd visit me during the week when he could but since I didn't get home until midnight or later (sometimes 2 or 3) it was an interesting courtship to say the least. It stood the test of time (together 22 years and married 19). It was well worth it for me to work around our schedules and eventually when we had Tony I took an early severance package and got to stay home. You have to decide if it's worth it. I wouldn't trade Clark for the world although we'd both like to throttle each other at times (by now we know all the buttons t push). BE sound very special but we also know what a treasure you are so if you decide to take the hassle of his schedule it's his good fortune!!!!

P.S. Just read that you wanted the break. Again, you are an awesome lady and BE would be lucky to have you as his lady!!!!!!!!! And good sex is a good thing. Believe me after 22 years one of us always seems to be asleep - which I will rectify (tee-hee)

Well, I'm done work for the year. ;)

As some of you know, I have two computers, both of which are several years old.

The tower PC in my home office is six years old, and has been struggling with memory problems. I upgraded the memory today from 256 Mb to 1.2 Gb. It now outperforms my notebook, but is not portable.

Do you have any idea how big the dust bunnies get inside a CPU that has not been opened in six years? :ph34r:

I should have done it long ago. It has been suffering from memory deficiency for a long time. A gigabyte of additional memory cost me 54 bucks. :)

Going up to visit Jacquie's family tomorrow. Then a quiet evening at home.

Happy New Year to all my treasured psilly phriends.

Peter, I'll buy the part and pay you $ 54 to clean the dust bunnies out of my memory and install a new faster brain in my head.

Happy New Year, other side of the world!

On my side of the world, we are trying to get in all the weather types possible before midnight. Warm (60F), tornados, thunderstorms, heavy winds and ice turning to a little snow. My neighborhood is in the icy stage moving towards the snow stage.

      Blood results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.

      Inconclusive results

      By Wends · Posted

      Wow, the system is crazy isn’t it? Maybe switch Doctors if you can. It’s surprising from what you’ve written it seems obvious it’s celiac disease. The “potential” diagnosis means celiac is developing and it basically just hasn’t done enough gut damage to be captured on the biopsy yet, and meet that “criteria” to satisfy the current system! Given the overwhelming evidence already - family history, positive ttg and ema. And your own experience and intuition which counts far more. And the labs being reproduced after gluten elimination and reintroduction- elimination and reintroduction diet is the gold standard too. Shame on the Doc and the system. What was the Marsh score? I’m guessing not 0 if it’s potential celiac. Meaning the autoimmune process has been triggered and started. Your daughter is obviously very healthy and her immune system is putting up a good fight. It can take years for the gut damage to build to a point where there’s overt symptoms and then a conclusive diagnosis, hence why many celiacs receive diagnosis later in life. You can prevent it. See the positive and the gift in that. Hopefully the gluten challenge confirms it, but if it doesn’t maybe get a second opinion?

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!
