So glad yall that were having high freaky winds survived the night. There be tor-nay-dahs out there too!! My worst fear ever!

Psillies- So much to tell!!!!! Had a very MYS-teerious day!

Opened me trunk (hatchback Subaru so not really a trunk) to find a brand new short sleeve soccer shirt for ENGLAND! Nikki- were you here? I've no idea where it came from! But I like it and I'm keeping it.

Then I went out for a drive and decided to go drive down the (one block) main street of this little hamlet here called Magnolia. Found this store open called Silent Seed. The young man running it was deaf and mute but we had a great conversation (mostly on a notepad). I left with a very in-need-of-TLC but rare plant Desert Rose

It needs a LOT of TLC but I was so intrigued by this young man and the rare but in need of TLC plants that I had to buy it. It's already SIX years old!

:lol: at your mysterious day Bevel!!! An English football appearing out of nowhere (what does it all mean??.........the little people??) and an encounter with a deaf mute that gave you a very rare plant. I just know it all means something!!!

I couldn't even tell you if he had hands :ph34r:

tried to search the uw site for pics of residents, but no luck

Yes, let's cyber stalk the Hubba Bubba!! We need more info :lol::lol:

I kid!

This all sounds much like the smoldering baby blues of Mike Fisher, doesn't it, Jooooles? :wub:

Why yes, it sure does Em..........dreamy sigh........

Mornin', Penis People! :lol::lol:

Gah!!!!! Stimulating conversation last night for sure, you guys were cracking me up! :lol:

Maybe we need to do a survey all of the males here......and ...what do you call yours? :P

:lol: Theresa

Um Lisa, just a thought, but I don't know if it should be a cute or fun name, or have "little" attached to it. :lol:

First store only had Hanna Montana and High School Musical stuff. I didn't think the 2 & 3 year olds would go for it. Second store I found some puppies and kittehs - much better.

Ended up taking the kids out for Ice Cream at Maggie Moo's . . . Skeeter had a rough day at the orthodontist and he gave her a gift cert that expired in 2 months so we had to use it the same day :huh: :wackl: :blink: She's still sore this morning and only wanted soft foods in her lunch.

:lol: no the wee ones might not appreciate the Hanna Montanna and HSM stuff like the older ones do, glad you found the puppies and kittehs they sound cute!

Poor Skeeter, that orthodontist business is not fun. But ice cream makes everything better!!

uh...Em...?

Twisted ankle means Barca-lounger and grudgingly helpful children devoted servants...

....and divan lounging whilst being fed grapes by Roman gods, or Mike Fisher :lol:

OH!! ... I BEV'D BEV!!! :lol:

Did Kurt buy my England football shirt off Ebay????? :lol:

All right, I twisted me ankle yesterday. It was already compromised from running, but this really did it in... . .. . . ice and heat. .. ....I will head onto the elliptical trainer for the next couple of workouts. NEED GREAT NEW MUSIC for me mp3!! With a fast, pounding dance beat. Anyone got suggestions?

This, unfortunately, is just too slow:

Horn O Plenty :lol: Sorry about your ankle Em :( Hope it heals quickly so you can get back to your runs.

My favorite topic!!!! These are a few on me mp3 player that pump me up and keep me going (promise not to laugh at some of them!!):

Michael Jackson- Wanna Be Startin Something

Stevie Nicks- Edge Of Seventeen

Destiny's Child- Bootylicious

Beyonce- Crazy In Love

Gwen Stefani- What You Waiting For?

Justin Timberlake- Love Stoned/I Think She Knows

Madonna- Ray of Light

N.E.R.D. - Rock Star (it has to be the "Jason Nevins Mix")

The Killers- All These Things That I've Done

And of course you can always go with Janet's favorite song (and anthem) I Kissed A Girl :lol::lol:

I'll post more as I think of them :)

:lol:

Wackl! And hee-sterical!!! Dave's reactions/comments were great!!

I LURVE Joaquin Phoenix, he was sooooo good as Johnny Cash.

Ok, I have heard this is a total set-up. I don't know if it is true or not, but there are rumors that he is making some kind of documentary/movie and the crazy personality and appearance is all a part of it, and he is being filmed apparently whilst doing all these crazy things.

Good eye Nik on the hare lip repair scar, I didn't even think of that.

Missed the Farrah interview, but yes I can imagine how that went.......she seems to have been off her rocker for some time. Anna Nicole Smith was another one that was hard for me to watch in interviews.

Aw Nik, do you have a case of the dull drums?? :( Cheery hugs to you :wub:

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks! 
    • knitty kitty
      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!

      And I agree with Wheatwacked. When a physician tells you that you can't have celiac disease because you're not losing weight, you can be certain that doctor is operating on a dated understanding of celiac disease. I assume you are in the UK by the way you spelled "coeliac". So, I'm not sure what your options are when it comes to healthcare, but I might suggest you look for another physician who is more up to date in this area and is willing to work with you to get an accurate diagnosis. If, in fact, you do not have celiac disease but you know that gluten causes you problems, you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). There is no test available yet for NCGS. Celiac must first be ruled out. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. NCGS we is not autoimmune and we know less about it's true nature. But we do know it is considerably more common than celiac disease.
