Leeesargh, you have indeed been busy with a new, changing home scenario yerself! A new adventure for you, too......and the rest of your family. It is terrific that your daughter and SIL have you. . . .you can hunker down together and wait for this economic spiral's demise...together, as families should be! :)

Mornin', Peeps!

Jeez Louise, it remains unseasonably cold here, considering we're now into March.......still well below zero, and the canal remains open to skaters. All of our big toboggan hills are open and busy still, as well. :angry: What in hell is the matter wif people?? Stop partaking in such activities, and it will get warmer!!

:rolleyes:

Nik! How's Tel? Will had shingles about ten years ago.....long, angry red patches of painful, raised sores along one side of his face (lovely) and upper chest. He was medicated and fortunately things resolved quickly. Hope this abates just as fast.. . ..

What else?. . . . . Jess's gnee. . ...are you able to get around well, Jess? You need those Roman, shirtless grape-feeders, methinks. . . ...

:D

Lots happening around here. DD and her boyfriend, David have an apartment together. David has been working as a substitute teacher. He obviously won't be able to work over the summer, and the economy the way it is.......it'll be hard for him to find something. David is like family, and in hard times......you take care of your own. So hubby offered to let them live with us to save money. With snow days and holidays, it's been tough going for them, too....so they're going to move in next month.

Good for you Lisa . . . I watched Oprah the other day about the growing number of homeless and the number of tent cities and all the people losing their homes and such . . . and I was amazed at the people that did not/would not ask their families for help. I'm sorry, but I just don't understand that . . . if we lost our house, one of our parents would be taking us all in . . . and then we would be working as hard as we could to chip in for their expenses . . . and to "get back out"!!! :lol:

:lol::lol::lol:

Morning Sillz!

Another Busy weekend coming to an end!

We had Julia's 5th birthday party on Sat- John and I had fun picking up gifts for her- we ended up getting a Lite Brite which now comes in a flat screen model--Lite Brite has evolved folks!

I also chopped my hair off on Saturday- it was mid back and now it is chin level- I was doing the flippy style today but it only lasted until i was getting closer to the building and then the wind took it all crazy!

So I see we have another winter storm upon us- patti and judy are going to get a dumping but we are lucking out and only getting like 4-5 inches- John is very upset over this.

I made lasgana for the first time in my life last night- I did a no boil recipe and it turned out great!!!! I had originally set out to make Broccoli and Cheese stuffed shells but I couldn't in the end so I will make those later in the week.

We no longer have the apt- our walk-through was on Friday and we feel it went well. I am keeping my fingers crossed!

Well work time is here!

Bye for sillies

Good Monday morn Sills :) Gorgeous day here, temps in the 70s on tap for today...I think Old Man IWnter is very confoozled.

Just got back from a weekend getaway with me fam and good friends, had a nice time just wish the weather would have been warmer Fri and Sat, but it was a beautiful day yesterday. We went to a college basketball game Sat and yesterday did a little site seeing, and the resort we were staying at was just beautiful and so posh, felt so pampered :)

Had some food/restaurant issues, omgosh I don't know how you guys do it.....I don't eat in restaurants but maybe one time a year (if that) since I have so many food allergies intolerances so I don't know the drill (what to ask for/what to look for). I took some of my food and thought I would live it up a little and eat one restaurant meal a day, which I was totally nervous about.

So the first night I pre-looked over the menu at the place we were going to be eating and they had roasted chicken with a vegetable and I thought, perfect! It comes out breaded :blink: ....who has ever heard of a roasted chicken that is breaded?? That's like an oxymoron :lol:

Then the second night I was talking to the waitress about wheat allergy/gluten intolerance and asked her a bunch of questions for the manager (i.e. dedicated fryer for fries, wheat ingredients in the hamburger patties, could I just get a plain grilled chicken breast, etc) She comes back and says, "the manager can say with somewhat certainty the hamburger patties don't have gluten but not sure about the bun..." :blink: X 10

There was more, much much more, but I've already written a book here :lol: but you get the idea...

:rolleyes:

How is everyone??

Jess! Did you have surgery?? WHAT?????? How did I miss that? How are you doing/feeling?

Nikki, Tel has shingles? Poor poor Tel, I hear that is incredibly painful. How is he holding up?

Sorry about your friend's news Em :( Sounds like they caught it though in the early stages so that is encouraging and hopeful.

Lisa, it's so wonderful you and yer DH are helping your kids out in tough times. I agree, that's what families are for :wub:

Amanda, yer hair sounds cute :)

Gah! I am so behind I know I missed so much more.

:wub: you all!!

:lol: :lol: raccoon pizzles - wee but tasty!

POETER!!!!!! yer raccoon visitor is SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!

Bevel - LURVED yer New York stories :lol:

.

I have a thing for very tight, hyper-close-up compositions. I've drawn several portraits of old, haggard men's and women's faces, many of which are just an eye and part of a nose. DD finds some of these scary, and was worried that a huge close-up of a zebra head would freak her out when she's trying to get to sleep. We'll see. . . . . ...... :lol:

LOVE the zebra! now - the old man's eye and nose would scare me out of a good sleep -

......and now my time here at Psillyville has come full circle. :rolleyes: This was my phirst post....

homozygous - I must use that word at least 10 times a day! :lol: (NOT)

Leesargh - taking the kids in, good for you. Yes, I often wonder if I"ll be living with my parents...... :huh:

NIK!!!! have we found out what's wrong wif Tel?

JOOLS!!!!!! love the restaurant story <_<

Pad-tee - not a ninny at all - just so much to go through - yer sills are h ere for you :wub:

phorgot everythign else - -

sillies - I have not been taking care of myself - - eating CRAP :( Very lazy about my diet (strict gluten avoidance, but wayyyyyyy too much sugar-y stuff and crap - not enough cooking - too many dinners of TJ's mini chicken tacos and stuff like taht)

It's caught up with me - have to go on MASSIVELY healthy detox diet now. I think I am seriously addicted to sugar :( Two weekends in a row I have eaten a whole pan of brownies :blink: and it's been YEARS since I've done that.

I did get my period three days early, though, which explains some of it

anywho, I feel like RUBBISH and must turn this around tout-sweet - - going to be hard giving up the sugar, esp. since the boys at work just got a HUGE case of Dove Chocs....... :blink:

help me

well Happy Monday everyone, and all those in snaugh, stay warm and snuggie! Tiger Pigs all around!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sillies - - dreamt I was in Australia and then flew to New Zealand (somehow a six-hour flight in my dream) and was in a plane with a detachable roof :blink: Kind of open- air.....

Anywho, in NZ I found a kitteh that is my very own Kit Kit :wub: Put him in my purse and then was about to fight w/ customs to get him home.........

See new av - - Kitteh CHEWS on Annie's head/ears when she sits near this corner of the couch :wub::lol: Poor, long-suffering Ouizelle Dog

Suz--I hear ya on the junk and sugar..... <_< Moi too......

Julie!! I have been thinking 'bout you! Just now in the shower (honest to gawd) I reminded meselph to send you a note so see if all was well. I also wanted to tell you that I was out near Ulta on Saturday, so (natch) I went in and they had the Kurl Karma! B) Love it!! It's creamier than the Curlinterrupted, and I think slightly better suited to my finer, thinner hair. (end of hair tawk) :P

Glad you had a nice, pampered getaway.....and yeah about the phood..

Jess--yer pristine rat! :rolleyes: Lyle wubs his mum :P

Well, we got probably 5 inches of snaugh or so....it stopped phalling within the last hour and the sun has come out. They closed all the schools and a company that I had to call over in South Jersey was "closed due to inclimate weather". I guess it coulda been worse......

Thinkin' bout Tel....hope Nik checks in today. :)

...HA! Adoration I'd say.......I got a wee frog (sans back leg) today (admittedly NOT on me bed :rolleyes: :jealousface:)

Wondering if Boris is gonna conjure up some 'chocolat de cuisses de grenouille with said missing leg :blink:

JULES!!! You survived!!!!! :wub:

GAWD..it makes me heart sink Jools :(

I think eating out gluten-free gets easier the more you do it - the more you do it, the easier it gets to ask questions/get a feel for a place AND not feel like you're a pain in their arse (which of course we are NOT, but you know what I mean)

Glad you had some fun though :D

EM!...LOVE the painting :D

OUI-zhelles tabb-eigh kitt-eh hat :lol:

PATTI!!! Thanks for the link - having looked at pics Tel definitely does NOT have shingles........looking at pics Tel's look just like hives...and anti-histamine seems to have taken the edge off the swelling :unsure:

Gawd!!....his immune system is such a drama queen!!!!!!

jerseyangel Proficient

Ok, you twisted me arm :lol:

I've been using Brocato hair products. I phound out about them at the salon where I had me Deva cut last month. Julie told me that they were available at Ulta (and more resonably priced than at the salon).

I use the Splassh shampoo and conditioner--which is a good basic everyday shampoo/conditioner, and the two curl balms that I mentioned. None of these have gluten--some of their stuff does.

Open Original Shared Link

I highly recommend :D

Of course - I am PHIGHTING the curl in my hair, constantly <_< Just got it cut, TOO SHORT, hate it and feel like a van-driving soccer mom :angry::lol: (with no offense meant to same)

Sillies, OMG, did I tell you I went out Sat. night to hear this PHAB band and......the Old Lady shut the bar down? I was taken home in a cab at 2 am :ph34r::o:lol: :lol: I think the last time I was out that late was about......10 years ago?

another reason I feel like rubbish :huh:

      Thank you knitty kitty!!  I appreciate your help and knowledge!
    • knitty kitty
      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And... Celiac disease and risk of microscopic colitis: A nationwide population-based matched cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36939488/

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding ideas please?
    • K6315
      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.
