Thought I would try to sneak out at 2:30, but I'm the only one here. Weirdest frickin' job I have ever had.

Sounds like the best job ever! No one to answer to, no one gives a crap! :P

wow, must pop back in more often. just spent a few weeks pre-GRE studying (kicked that baby over the moon) and haven't been around. like, not cleaning or playing on internet except for cookbook marketing around. have been physically present, relearning geometry (I know! knew it when I was 14.) Didn't even use it much on the exam either. got all the stats questions except for one which I just needed a little more time to get it. bah...

cute new chick pics. All the college kids doing well?

BTW, pb sandwiches without jelly? Isn't that bordering on cruel? At least let 'em have apple slices. Or dill pickles. Dill pickles + pb = excellent. English muffin pizzas are also a great solution to the will only eat pizza dilemna, too. For grown-ups, too...

Anybody get a new car ;-p?

This is SO true. Even when not pregnant. In fact, peanut butter goes with absolutely anything except mushrooms.

Mygawd, you have forgotten these top-of-the-listers:

Penis slings

Phart charting

Bad-ass Snow Poodles

Poo Chunks

Funny, but when the search is on for these words, only the Psillyville thread comes up. Wild......can you believe that?.. . . ...

Phart charts laugh.gif... Good times!

Poo Chunks ??? unsure.gif ..were they a band name?

Gads, trying to catch up ...but phlippin' 'eck!!! Raechelle has the patience of a saint!!!! wink.gif

Bloomin' interwebz keeps dying on me. Have nae the mental strength to ring the call centre (in Mumbai) blink.gif

********************************************************************

Somewhat stressful times here...

My Mum's had another stroke (she was in Spain on holiday vacation)

She & my Dad were finally allowed to fly home on Wednesday (with a nurse, thankfully they had decent travel insurance!)

Anyhoo, she's lost the sight in her left eye and is very confused and disorientated dry.gif

.....in other news Son of Psilly (AKA Alzy) hasn't been well .

Still not sure what's wrong, it's like he's had flu for 3/4 weeks. No energy, not eating properly.

Leg pain, and more worryingly massive swollen lymph node in his neck and stomach.

Waiting for varying tests (scans and biopsies of lumps in Oct) ...feels like I'm doing all the pushing at the docs. Been fobbed off with 2 rounds of antibiotics already for him rolleyes.gif

Ok, moan over - back to psilly!!

Toot sweet!!

Wow! That's rough and very unpsilly! Poor thing.

I suppose they tested Alzy for mono. Sounds just like my neice's mono. Went on & on. Swollen glands, sore joints, sooo tired. Hope they figure something out soon.

Jeepers, Nik, take care of yourself while you're taking care of everyone else :unsure: Hope they get Alzy figured out soon, and that your mom makes some improvement.

Deadlines are all in the Dec 15 to Jan 15 range. Still struggling a bit to figure out where I would fit well with faculty interests and the oh-too-rare funding for more social-based, non-molecular nutrition. There's not really a perfect solution, and the most enthusiastic prof I met in out West, but it'll be a serious move to leave the east coast.

Great sympathy for a mono sufferer... not fun at all.

Gnick! :(:wub: :wub: So sorry to hear about your sick li'l family -- hugs to you, Al and yer mum. Man, I've been there with a stroke-stricken mother.......'tis tough.

Well, if only I'd known about these family concerns yesterday, Gnick -- Prime Minister Cameron was hanging around in Ottawa for the day, had dinner at the Governor General's residence and gave a couple of addresses.... ....I could have plowed into the scrum, grabbed a mic and demanded that he look into your mom's and Alzy's situations.... . ..... . .

He hasn't got much else going on.....

This was in the National PARK, not forest. They have potties, well marked trails, helpful rangers discussing your hiking route and asking about mountain goats (a wild goat killed a guy last year, so they want to know if you saw any). Of course I don't see anyone until after my hike, 'cause I start early before anything opens. I was the third car in the lot, and at least one was the maintenance guy opening the building. Lots of folks on the trail on the way back though.

Funny how a long walk in the sun and wind (serious winds at the top, hence the name Hurricane Ridge) can turn your brain to mush. Also pretty high, so maybe some oxygen deprivation too.

GKnick!! Sorry to hear about all the troubles over thar!! I must admit that my first thought on Al-Zee was mono but I would have thought they would have tested for that. Hugs and warm thoughts being hurtled your way.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By Mari · Posted

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Aldi Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.
