She lives up in the Yukon, so that territory can deal with her driving infractions. One should think that the Alaska Highway would be the safest thoroughfare to place a hapless driver -- long stretches of straight, flat road, reasonable speed limit -- she has, however, managed to take out guard rails and First Nations elders portaging along the shoulder.. . . . ..

She rarely takes either of our cars out, now........and the kids wear full hockey gear when they do head out with her.

:huh:

:lol:

Maybe your daughter could drive when they are out together? MIL can wear the pads!

Went to my bro's house for Christmas eve. Their friends the Jo(h)ns were there already helping set up dinner. Jon looks at me and says "John was baking all day making gluten free lady fingers for your tiramisu" and John looks over from the sink and smiles. :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

Hope those of you who do Christmas Eve had a lovely celebration. :) Hugs and hearts to all! :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

Merry Christmas!

Cooper, the dog, went to visit my mom yesterday. She really liked seeing him. He went in & put his head over her lap & greeted her before he greeted my dad. He always favors my dad as he is the one that feeds & walks him when they dog- sit. We went out to the lobby area to sit & he walked by my Mom's chair & lay down part of the time by her feet. She kept saying, " He usually favors your dad. Why is he paying so much attention to me?". He was quite a hit with the male nurses, too. I think he really cheered her up.

Well, I am not used to eating rich food (not that I pigged out ;) ) but had the most disturbed sleep what with aftershocks and indigestion, and the DREAMS!

Jestgar Rising Star

well, no earthquakes, but I also slept poorly. Had a storm blow through and took out the power for a couple hours so I used the opportunity to have a wee nap on the couch. :P

Having a lovely low-key day reading Harry Potter and snuggling kitties.

I started reading my new David Baldacchi hair-raiser - hub knows what to get me :wub: I live such a dull life I love to read about the craziness and gore that I could be surrounded with, but am not :D (Well, except for the detestable creep who raped a five-year-old tourist little girl from Belgium - where do these creeps crawl out from??) :unsure::angry: And at Christmas, no less!!! A pox on all paedophiles!!! And a life sentence, except New Zealand does not do that - we are too enlightened :wacko:

Sorry, resume your Christmas joy :rolleyes:

Mmmmmmm.....the day after Christmas.....love it!

Just chillin' in front of the TV, crossword puzzle, leftovers, and now getting ready to cuddle up with a book.

Oh....and the best part......hit the after Christmas sales this morning with a few gift cards :D

Christmas never fails to stress me out, even though I have greatly reduced my expectations of myself, so I'm always glad when it's over. Only bought a few gifts for family......nothing for each other.No big dinner...just munchies.

This Christmas was extra special, though, with little Lexi, just turned 2....her first Christmas that she can really express herself. We got her a tricycle and wrapped it up. When she saw the big present she put her widdle hands to her cheeks and said "Oh my!". And when she opened it she danced around shouting "A cycle! A cycle!"

Doesn't get much better than that :wub:^_^

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas :)

Well, I'm late to the party but wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays.

Just got back from Florida tonight (Christmas at my MIL's). Our drama consisted of me mailing almost all of our gifts for the kids to FL ahead of time because it would be too hard to take everything on the plane. The package was suppose to arrive on the 19th of December. It showed up about 3pm on the 24th. Gah!!!

Patti, did I know you had a Tyler Kitteh? What a beauty!!

Karen, how sweet is your Cooper??

Rache, hang tough . . . we got yer back.

Jess, impressive international contacts . . . and good luck with that grad school stuff. (ps, your nuts.)

Lo, here's to a better year, huh? Keep up the good attitude, it's inspiring.

Nik, where the hell you been? . . . don't forget to come back and slap us around on the 1st.

Shroom, just keep hanging on . . . they make plastic wine glasses, you know.

Em, really? Didn't we tell you once to bubble wrap the house?. . . or was that the car?

. . . and everyone else . . . a big hello. :wub:

You were in Florida and came back HERE?

:blink:

Hope you got your fill of sunshine while you were there.

.....and I hope you didn't pay extra for those packages to arrive 5 days late! <_<

Wavy "Hi" Janet! Santa came through with your gifts on time! ;) Hope you had a wonderful holiday with your family. AND to everyone else.

We had a great holiday and fun to watch the 9 year old and 2 year old enjoy Santa. The nine year old is waaaaayyyy to smart to give up her notion of Santa. ;)

Wish all a happy and healthy new year and I hope my girls make very smart choices in this new year. :D

Put this in the file of "He doesn't have a clue":

Less than two days after joining Twitter, media mogul Rupert Murdoch appears to have had his first brush with tweeting-before-thinking, after suggesting that the British have too many holidays for a "broke country".

Murdoch - who joined Twitter less than 48 hours ago and already has almost 40,000 followers - quickly deleted the message, but it was preserved by some Twitter users and quickly spread around the website.

"Maybe Brits have too many holidays for broke country!" Murdoch, who is holidaying on the Caribbean holiday island of Saint Barthelemy, wrote about 6am Australian time.

Absolutely no comment :blink:

FIRST Robotics season has started! It is a basketball type of game, so that part will be easy to understand. They were given an XBox with a Kinect that they can use for part of the game. I'm glad I don't have to figure all this out!

I was so hoping the game this year would be a bionic digestive system! I guess that could be quite messy. :unsure:

I believe that most of us on here in fact DO HAVE bionic digestive systems.. . .....destroying, with super-human strength, all things in their paths..... <_<

SO. I have a HUGE, life-altering announcement to make. Just yesterday, the family has been informed that.. . . ......

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
