The chicken is adorable. I even like the big bug. :ph34r:

You know how you change one thing in your house & you have to change 6 more things? I got some new curtain valances for the kitchen. Was so happy that I found what I wanted at the first store I went to! Came home & realized the old curtain rods wouldn't work for these.

So now we have to take the old ones down, find new ones we like (Hub has some idea of what he wants so I will let him find them). After taking down the old ones, we realize we have to patch & repaint!

After that, we will probably realize the rest of the kitchen is woefully inadequate!

Yes. Thank goodness we only have a 3 car garage! We might have more!

1 driving college kid. That car only visits. 1 kid learning to drive & fixing up a car with Dad. My van, Hub's car & hub's toy Miata.

A reason to go to New Zealand?

Ah yes, this one was a biggie! But there are many species of weta, some of them near my home. If I hadn't already been sitting on the toilet I would have wet my pants when I found one in the house I was housesitting at the time - they are protected (to a certain extent, because those were the guys I was telling you about that are eaten at the Wild Foods festival :o )

Whilst this may appear to be a fearsome creature to encounter, just remember that we have no snakes or deadly spiders :D

I get a lot of double yolkers. I keep them in a separate carton 'cuz they're so big. I'm not sure my little silkie would be able to squeeze out anything as big as a double.

Where is everybody?

It's December 11th!

Eighty years ago on this date, Canada ceased to be a part of the British Empire, and became an independent country ruled by a democratically elected Parliament comprised of Canadians. Let's celebrate!!

Most Canadians are too distracted by the event of July 1, 1867, to realize that the truly important date was December 11, 1931. Confederation, in 1867, merely created a mega-colony, The Dominion of Canada, which was an umbrella government over the four colonies which became the original provinces.

But then, who wants a National Holiday two weeks before Christmas, when you can have one in the summer? :rolleyes:

oh, i don't know. How 'bout we cram a bunch of holidays into December and declare the whole month as party time?

Yesterday I hiked the Open Original Shared Link. It's 5 miles out to the end and you get a tour of the Open Original Shared Link given by Open Original Shared Link.

It was very peaceful and I saw a snowy owl who has hanging out looking for snacks.

I should have headed down to Parliament Hill to see if the feds had any celebratory goings-on lined up.......

Maybe Bob and Doug were down there, doing some public musing......

Saw your pics on Da Book, Jyessss.... . .. ..fantastic! B):)

Heeeeeeeyyyyyy . . . I saw my first Snowy owl last weekend. They don't normally come this far south. People are driving in from all over to take a gander because it is so rare (from what one of my birding friends said, this is like the third time in 10 years that one has been sighted and hung around long enough for people to travel to see it.) I was fortunate to only have to drive 45 minutes to see it. Last time (3 years ago?) the birders here were driving about 2 1/2 hours to go see one.

Happy 11-12-11 Peter and Em!!

Just talked to J at Call- lugge. He said the cafeteria food is labelled gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian. The best food is the gluten-free because they take extra care when they make it. Everyone can have it, too. They make the best gluten-free chocolate cake. Everyone loves it!

This is un- Psilly but I guess this is where to put it.

My mom has some heart issues. A Fib occasionally and an aortic heart valve that functions at about 30%. We have been managing this and we're planning to enroll in a study of a percutaneous replacement valve.

Tuesday night, she had a stroke. At first, it didn't look too bad. Then Wed, she had some odd heart emzymes and a bleed was showing up in her brain. As of today it seems she isn't as bad as it looked yesterday. It appears her left arm, leg and side of her face are affected. She has some movement. The Rehab doc saw her this evening. He thinks she can regain most of her function with rehab.

Anyway, that's what's been going on here.

Oh Karen, so sorry about your mom. But somehow I have good feelings she is going to pull through just fine. I sure hope so. Thinking of you.

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.

      @Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies. It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about. Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis? Was your tTg IgA level very high? These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients. Are you eating...

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can make TMJ worse. Vitamins like B12 , Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B6 help relieve pain. Half of the patients in one study were deficient in these three vitamins in one study below. Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/

Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.  It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that has similarities to the Mediterranean diet mentioned in one of the studies.   Is there a link between diet and painful temporomandibular disorders?

      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms
