Maybe we could all move to Maine! Take it over. Make it the gluten free homeland! I'ld suggest you all move here to Kansas but it would take too much money to detox it from wheat.

Well, already in CT so I'm kinda ....near.... Maine. I'm down for Psillytown!!

Oh my God New Englanders are stupid. So my job is a company that sells cars at auction, and 80% of them are totalled cars from insurance companies right? Which means that when the weather is bad we are very, very busy. And these FREAKIN vehicles owners and these FREAKIN insurance people keep calling us to ask why we haven't been picking up cars!! Could it be that we have the same number of drivers but more than twice as many cars as in the summer? Or could it be that it WONT STOP SNOWING!!!!!

Do what I would do if these were my kids. In your best mom or teacher voice, " and why do you think that is? Can you think of any reason the car might not be picked up?". Probably can't do that. Just be super sweet and nice. I used to work in No Cal and would put on a southern voice and be all apologetic and explain why those bad lawyers couldn't have what they wanted. A couple of them told my employee I made them feel really bad and evil. ;)

Awww geez, people. <_<

Maine? :huh:

Really? :unsure:

If When I move, it's going to be south, like North or South Carolina.

If it snows there, it won't hang around for long. ;)

Every time hubby has anyone talking to him about transfering (I don't think he'll leave this company voluntarily), we look at houses we could afford. I don't think we'll ever leave the midwest. We can't afford this house in any other part of the country.

This is true. But we don't need as big a house, anymore.

Oh, and if Italy ever came up as a possibility, I could consider it. :) What's the weather like, there?

DD made an effort on the driveway, trying to break up a path to our cars so we don't fall on our arses. So I picked up some of the pieces of ice, averaging about 10 inches across and about 2 inches thick and was throwing them into our skating rink yard. They landed with a 'THUNK' and slid towards the street. Didn't even make a dent. :o

Before the ice storm hit the snow plows came through our neighborhood and actually put down salt (or whatever it is they use). Unheard of! I was sooo tempted to go out there with a broom and sweep some into our driveway :P But I had the baby, so I lost my opportunity.

Speaking of dreams, Jack decided not long ago to start writing down his dreams as soon as he opens his eyes in the morning. I was just in his room putting his clean laundry pile on his bed when I spotted his open notebook on the night table, complete with morning scribblings. I looked at his entry for last night, and it said (I'm paraphrasing):

I was at home but I was also on The Titanic (it was kind of like in our living room), helping evacuate people. I was wearing a very official uniform, way too big for me. A really old man would not get into a lifeboat. . . . ....I began to yell at him, and finally I hit him. It was terrible.....but he got in the lifeboat.

Then I saw my mom washing post-it notes. They were no longer sticky, so she was completely ruining them.

That was all for last night.

J & his friends saw a movie about " concious dreaming". They try to influence their dreams. They end up with some really crazy dreams. Zombies ruling the world. People in jail for the cello falling out of the car.

Go sled doggies!

I need some funny:

A Thoughtful Valentine's Day Gift

Jim asked his friend, Tony, whether he had bought his wife anything for Valentine's Day.

'Yes,' came the answer from Tony who was a bit of a chauvinist, 'I've bought her a belt and a bag.'

'That was very kind of you,' Jim added, 'I hope she appreciated the thought.'

Tony smiled as he replied, 'So do I, and hopefully the vacuum cleaner will work better now.'

My dearest wife is always going on and on and ON about NOT making a fuss over her on Valentine's Day.

For my doggy Psillies, here is some great reading on the characters in this great epic race. I don't see any of Michelle's team featured in this, but it's interesting to read about Newton Marshall's lead dog Wyatt -- Newton has been the much-loved underdog in the Quest for the past three years, being a Jamaican and having thrown himself wholeheartedly into this completely foreign sport, atmosphere, geography and climate... . . . ....

The dogs do seem to enjoy pulling the sleds.

Just saw a local news spot about the big food pantry's Souper Bowl drive. They try to collect lots of soup. Churches, schools, etc collect it and Harvesters distributes it to pantries and food kitchens. They were showing the big blue barrels of collected soup. In one was a pan era bag with handles. In it you could see a carryout container of soup! Yuck!

That explains why she hasn't been around lately! What did she name the baby?

Rachelle? Janet? Karen? Lisa? Patti? Em? Peter? Jess? Maybe a combo of all of them?

( sorry if I forgot a name)

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By ElenaM · Posted

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.
