M's butt and other bits are in the shower, safe & sound.

Robotics will probably be a big NO! I don't really want them out right now. Also, the school has sent a very definite NO to any activities today. We tried to sneak in a few kids one day, and the principal was there and said to leave. The other snow days they have let kids in after the roads clear. Roads aren't clearing today.

There is a snow covered squirrel on the squirrel feeder. He seems frozen in place except he keeps chewing. Agh! I only have 3 cages suitable for thawing squirrels and 5 squirrels. They will have to take turns.

For sure!

I brought the bunny to school yesterday for Maddie to show her friends. He was quite the boy magnet :P I've never seen boys fall all over themselves over anything like that before (except teenage boys and a hot girl B) )

Perhaps we girls would like to go many places with them, as well. .. . ..but we cannot get a good enough look at the musher.. . . . .looks young.. . . . . ..rather virile. . . . . . ..tough call... :rolleyes:

And hey, speaking of dog-mushing, the Yukon Quest begins this Saturday. Here's who we need to really root for!

Did ya send a GPS with them for blizzard navigation? Does Michelle use GPS??

WE are having the wind (without the snow!!) but poor old Queensland has a category 4 cyclone bearing down on them, expected to dump up to a METER of rain, so they can phlood the parts of the state that are not already phlooded (share the grief, so to speak) :o And the state premier says "We are a resilient people." I should jolly well hope so!!!

So you guys do your normal northern hemisphere blizzard resistance, and we will do our southern hemisphere drowning phlood resistance, and hope we all come out the other side. :unsure:

Part deux of our blizzard has begun. :ph34r:

It's raining icicles :o .....and hubby went out for pizza :wacko: (At least my son-in-law went with him)

.....because the pizza place refuses to deliver. Imagine that <_<

BTW......there are no gluten-free pizza places near us, so DD and I will have to make our own dinner plans.

Nope, not allowed. Gotta find yer way through the mountain passes and psnough squalls, over barren, frozen lakes and ice ridges by yourself. Trails are marked, but for those twelve-plus days you have to be payin' attention.. .. .

OMG... .thank GAWD MIL is not a dog-musher.. . . . . ..... . .cars get dented and banged-up, but these are DOGS....! <_<

They really are something.. . . . . ...those poor pholks... :(

The moisture is all headed to Queensland where Cyclone Yasi has been upgraded to a category 5 to hit near Cairns :unsure:

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
