I have had FIVE glasses of chardonnay since 6 pm. Quite an evening. . . ..the first part of which was spent riveted to the big screen at my mom's retirement residence, in the fireside lounge, watching the Belmont Stakes. What a race! And what an audience...All of these ninety year-olds yelling and shouting, leaping up and down, rooting for their prospective horses, clutching their chests. . . . .. .gawd.. . . had my first three glasses there.. .. .

Annnnnd a couple o' glasses later, here I am.... . ...

Hmmm.. . . nothing to drunkenly add to the divorce discussion..... . . .think I would be very bad at it. I seem to do marriage well.....

Man, especially after all this wine... . . . . :lol:

Is there still wine? Or I am too late to the (?) party? It's been raining all day and I'm demoralized/restless as my plans had involved lots of garden time, which did not happen.

YAY, Smackl! :)B)

Greetings, sb2178! . . ....Sounds like a terribly important, clandestine Code Moniker. .. .. ...are you a spy from another organized forum? . .. . . ... .

Woot! A soggy gardener has joined us! I've moved on to coffee and peanut butter cookies before heading out for a walk.

Sounds good! Coop & I will be right over. He prefers water.

Soggy gardener is now a soggy runner, who needs a shower followed by tea and cookies!

(my secret moniker... hmmm... dare I reveal the prosaic fact that was the e-mail assigned by my undergrad? I can remember it, and it's never taken as a username.)

Emily, btw, I love your dog pic. I grew up with standard poodles and am very fond of them.

Extra cookies for him? And no slippery floors?

How will he handle all the farms full of animals on the walk?

He ususally ignores them or wags his tail at other animals. He has been trying to be friends with the rabbits this week. He doesn't chase, just trots slowly with tail wagging - head down. Got excited when Foxy was in the yard- seemed to think she was a dog here to play.

One of my kids uses his HS id number for passwords cause its easy to remember.

Excellent. We'll be greeting llamas, chickens, a donkey or two, couple cows, some horses, lots of slugs, and a few dogs taking their owners out for a run.

Love seeing the runner dogs. At the beginning they're all excited and happy to be going out, and when you pass them again at the end of their run heads are down, paws dragging, they keep glancing up at dad with that "you can't be serious" look as they try to calculate how much farther it is to home.

Flash mob was more like a flash 'group' :rolleyes: , but that's OK. It was fun. We continued to dance throughout the afternoon for 3 hours. Only problem was that we were directly under a skylight. Lots of sweaty bodys. Nothing like being spun around, hair flying, only to have it come back into your own face with someone elses sweat on it <_<

Hey! Great workout, Leeeesargh! Something you love to do, and your heart rate's way up - - superb. What a fun way to exchange sweat!

All right, sb2178.. . . . ...the unofficial edict around here is that we need your real name, or a close proximity, so that we can rightly butcher it and make it psilly. Kherrighnne, Jyaghnutt, Jyesssss, Low, leeeesargh, Gnick, Soooooozle, etc.

Suppose we could just sillify your forum name, but it somehow isn't quite as funny.

......sssssb21*%7^88... . . . ...

......SsB^%#177778.. . . . ....

Nope. Need yer real name.. . ...

:rolleyes:

One of my kids uses his HS id number for passwords cause its easy to remember.

I used to use my bra size, but through the years I kept having to change it, so I gave up on that approach. . . .....as I recall, twenty years ago I was known as 34dd... . . ..after both my kids were born I had to change it to 36c.. . . ....crap, I HATE my password now that I'm into my forties. <_<

Dear gawd, would LOVE this. Big poodles just go. And go. And go. I run, they run. I keep running. They're running. I finish 5k. Their look is more, "you can't be serious -- that's it??"

Hmmmmmmm........I'm not so sure about that. I can still understand her.

:lol: Yes...I was hoping for a few drunken Jyessss postings.. .. . .

This is so true! We also need a name for Glutenfreemanna. If they do not care to share a first name choice, I, the Psilly Queen, will be happy to bestow names upon them.

Taking suggestions....

I'm assuming both are females so:

Eunice

Moon Unit

Gaga

Wido

Latrine

So true. Although, when babysitting kids of people with large energetic dogs, it was always helpful hearing that they'd had the dog out for a 10 mile run!

One of these days I'll challenge my keyboard hogging cat with a running dog... She'd have no problem keeping a pup in line.

How magnanimous of you to make suggestions. If you must have a name besides Manna, y'all can call me Irene. Will that one be sufficient butchering material? :D

I'm sure they can. Have you seen the ways they mangle "Karen"?

I though perhaps your name was pronounced differently than the standard "Karen". With the g added I had made it "Car-Eng-Gee" said really fast in my mind. :lol:

      Hi! I had my first episode of AFib last May when I was 30 (I have had some heart stuff my whole life but nothing this extreme). I was not diagnosed with celiac until the beginning of this month in October of 2025. I was in the early stages of celiac, so I'm not sure if they were related (maybe!) All of my heart tests came back normal except for my electrolytes (potassium and magnesium) that were low when the AFib occurred. I also became pregnant with our third and last baby a couple weeks after I came back from that hospital stay. I had no heart complications after that whole thing. And I still haven't over a year later. It was definitely scary and I hope it doesn't happen again. I drink an electrolyte drink mix about every day, and I'm sure being on a gluten-free diet will help my body even more! I will pray for you in this. Taking care of our bodies is so challenging but Jesus is with us every step of the way. He cares and He sees you!

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!
    • knitty kitty
      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.
