I will start looking for nice houses in my neighborhood here in Kansas for you. I will not find any with a MIL suite.

New Zealand is bloody far from ANYWHERE in Canada... . ..there would be a nice, huge expanse of ocean and topography between us.....no dropping in, no constant phonecalls... . ...

OMG....it still hasn't sunk in.. . . ... . ..next summer. She. Will. Be. HERE.

Kansas is pretty far. If she has seen the Wizard of Oz, she might never want to visit. And we have wild packs of wandering standard poodles so the dogs would have a club to join.

Apparently, we must now worry about gluten on our small lizards and car insurance? :lol:

I was making him breakfast yesterday :ph34r: -at noon- and he casually said "oh, I've been thinking about my recipes and I'm pretty sure I can rework most of them so you can eat them." :) So far he's made me omelets and sweet and sour chicken, but I'm sure he'll do more. He told me he was late meeting me the other day because he was getting a tour of the gluten-free section at the store. Sweet man. :)

Well.....let's look at the bright side.

Psillyville has been a little tumbleweedy, lately. I'm sure her move will provide lots of interesting stories. You might even want to start a book, Em.

Ummmm.......isn't there somebody who should be warned, though? :unsure: Do you have, like, a National Guard or sumphin' up there in Canada?.....the highway patrol?.......Homeland security?........Royal Mounties?........

Em - she isn't planning to live with you, is she? ( what did I do with my barfy face?)

Jess, how did you find another nice one? Do they grow them on that island? Did you miss the ferry and he gave you a ride?

picked him up in a (coffee) bar. He lives across the bridge, actually..or...that's where his boat is moored for the time being. He's only been back from Mexico since August so he's still trying to figure out what to do. He retired, got divorced, sold everything, bought a boat, and that's where he is......suddenly realizing that he's got to figure out how to entertain himself for the next twenty years or so....I'm suggesting handy work on my house. :P I even said he could use my miter saw. :D

What a lucky man! It's not every day a woman offers the use of her miter saw :P

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
