I usually say "As long as they don't use it on someone else." or "Keep your haircare to yourself!"

Applies to a couple of boys as well as the girls.

Now I have a parent that has told a bunch of the other parents that there is no cost to them for the kids to travel with the team. If a random someone decides the kids don't have to buy thier own food, does that make it so?

I'm going to hide in a hole, now. :ph34r:

How sweet of that parent to offer to pay for everyone's meals! :P

kareng Grand Master

So, we are having a parent meeting to explain things. I know with 50 kids, a few parents might not be able to make it. One emailed me back to say they had something that night, could we change the date?

Felt like saying, " sure. for you. We will ask 100 people to change the date.". Or " Sure, we'll change it to May 2". After the season is over.

Ja, I know, "the world revolves around me" type :blink: Perhaps you would like to personally canvas all the parents and find one date when everyone is available :P

So my hub said that he assumes people ,like the one that wants the meeting changed for them, don't think before they email. He said he would rather believe that then that they thought it out and decided everyone should accomadate them.

So that makes these people " thoughtless"? Dumb? They get a GFT on the head to knock some sense into them!

Jestgar Rising Star

Thoughtless.

Or they've never had to organize a group of people and have no idea what's involved.

Can you schedule the meetings a month out and tell everyone now so they can set their own schedules?

It won't matter. I know some people have bought tickets months ago to something, or 1 school has a band concert, etc. Its OK. I just couldn't believe they would think we would change the date for one family.

Nothing works for everyone, I guess.

Hello my dear psillies. - I've missed you all so much

I'm back from my nightmarish couple of weeks. It turned out my main problem was bad psychotropic drug interactions that I've been taking for years and they finally built up too high for my body weight. Now here's the scary and psilly part of it. I was trying to get in to see my psychiatrist earlier than my next appointment but he's having surgery and has no covering doctor and will only see suicidal patients. I don't know how to safely get off the worst of the drugs (depakote). Luckily Superman worked in the pharmaceutical field for 27 years and looked it up and the side affects. I'm slowly weaning myself off of the depakote and will be switching doctors. Right now I'm falling again (the depakote). I feel I have so much to be grateful for. My dear friends and the support they give me and my sweet Superman. After all the worry and and stress I put him under he bought me a Kindle Fire so I can read again. My eyesight is still hazy and now I can make the font size as large as I need to. I feel I'm on the road to recovery but still need to take it slow.

I'm still tiring easily so will end with an update on Tony. He has two internships this summer. One with one of his psychology professors and the other ...drumroll..... with the Public Defender's Office. I am SO proud of him!!! All right, time to eat lunch. My weight is still really low.

Lots of love wub.gifwub.gifwub.gifwub.gifwub.gif

Perhaps we should be careful when we complain about restaurant food and send it back to the kitchen???

A good chef must be passionate about his food!

Maybe Chuck Norris can set him straight! Now that would be a good food fight!

Argh I'm such a fb newb. Somehow after a hopefuUlly humoUrous paragraph on kitties' cereal, I hit Enter to post & it disappears! No magic triangle of course.

And this was AFTER it kept posting fromi though my hitting Enter when I wanted newline.

Anyway .. . . .even Toucan Sam made an appearance.

I thought Gianknit & Joolz & maybe Pseuzee & Behvel did a lot of fb.

No, you're right, Ptaoughmm....there is NO magic triangle o'er in that other place......but hey, you can LIKE something!

And poke people.......

Actually, I have never poked anyone. Ever. The odd time I wish we could slap someone. <_<

And I KNOW, I simply HATE that hit-enter-and-your-post-is-public..... . .. ..I often do this. If you want to simply skip to a new line, hit "enter" and "shift" at the same time......:)

Read this as: "When you want to skip to a new line, you hit "enter" and say "sh!t" at the same time."

.....it didn't work for me :unsure: :unsure:

I only do FB on my computer or iPad. I can't see anything that dinky on my phone! :blink:

      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.
