I just had yogurt :o

I've had such a craving for it since I discovered the "new" Enjoy Life granola--I can't even stand it. I bought a lil' tub (a ho-tub?) of Fage greek yogurt and topped the cereal wif half of the container of yogurt.

Gawd--this stuff is good! I went dairy phree long before gluten-free, so I wasn't sure if I would even like it anymore....I went dairy phree thinking that was contributing to my stomach problems, and just never went back to eating it. I was skeered :P

So....I should know soon if this was a good idea :lol:

It was a most enjoyable experiment though, I must say! :D

POeter had to phire somebody? Oh, dear. . . . .....bet he/she was stealin' pizzles er sumfin'.

He was relatively new, and was just not meeting expectations. We decided to cut our losses. Never a pleasant task.

Hi Sills :)

Patti, thanks so much for the thoughts, Judy, and Em too :wub:

Em, I meant to say yesterday that I was so thrilled to get a friend request last week form The Ripper on the Book. It made me smile.

Hi mimommy/Rachel. Welcome to Sillyville. It's a warm, cozy, and funny place!

I just had yogurt :o

Patti!!! OMG, I hope it sits well with you. That would be fantastic if you could tolerate a little dairy.

So what is on everyone's Easter menu?

Gah!

I have no clue what I am going to do and I have to figure it out TODAY.

I'll probably either make a lemon pie (thanks, Nik) or a lemon cake, though, since it won't seem like a holiday if I don't make sumphin' :P

What are you making? I'll bet its going to be most yummie, whatever it is :D

Em--what's the latest on yer dad?

Patti, Changs as in PF Changs?

And Lemon Pie?? Nik posted a recipe? Must go bother Nik for said Lemon Pie recipe :lol:

Right now I am thinking I might do Salmon Patties with a Creamed Pea Sauce.

I eat chicken all the time, can't do beef or pork or lamb or turkey. So, I thought something like that would be different and festive.

Main course, check. Now to figure out the side dishes and dessert.....and to track down Nikki for lemony goodness recipe :lol:

Amanda, if you are around....thinking of John for his surgery tomorrow :wub:

And big (((HUGS))) to you, hope you are holding up ok with everything.

Brain barely sparking , kids off school for two WEEKS!!! - where's me psillie GONE?!?!?!?

Gknikkeigh! Where IS your silly? has it run off with mine? <_<

I have about........30 percent silly today. And....that is 29 percent more than I had yesterday, so I"ll take it. :huh:

HUGE HUGE HUGE family drama going on in Minnesota, involving drug addiction, insanity, embezzling and losing millions, :o divorce, and I just found out about it today. Been going on for three years. Yeah, we're quite close. <_<

Takin' lessons from the Suze. Told my boss he was a smart-a$$.

oh

wait

Suze is only partially employed

..........................must look for more appropriate role model<_<

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: x 500

this gave me a HUGE guffaw........yes Geoss, try and remember that....I"ve known my boss 20 years.....we have a very inappropriate brother-sister relationship.....and yes, I"m partially employed and could pretty much not get fired, no matter what I do :lol:

He's now about about 1 1/2 years old, weighs in at about 80 lbs. He's convinced he's a lap dog, and likes to have his hand held. Max enjoys long walks and quiet romantic evenings at home He steals kitty food and even sneaks a bite from the litter box now and then

:o Um.......are you talking about my Weezee here? This sounds EXACTLY like her! :lol:

she is a romantic hand-holder at all times......greets everyone with a paw that they must hold, a passionate and endearing, gripping stare that friends have declared says "love me love me love me love me LOVE ME LOVE ME LOVE ME LOVE ME"

:wub: and I do

This might sound completely lame, but I finally got the guts to put a photo in my profile. I went poking around in some other members profiles (Ha! I know what you look like now.) and checking out blogs and such. I wanted to see who was doing what, who I was talking to--and might I say, what a handsome lot you are. I guess I had a momentary lapse of my usual cynicism and inane/insane distrust of strangers, cuz I just went for it. Browsed my photos, hit open, and there I am. In all seriousness, I've been bothered by a weirdo or two in my life, so please, if any psychos are lurking--leave me be. I attract freaks like, well, like a butt magnet attracts coins. The pic. I chose was taken at Soaring Eagle casino on our wedding anniversary a couple of years ago, at a Brad Paisley concert. Unfortunately, after the pixel downsize it looks like my lipstick is smearded all over my face. Oh well. They let me go out in public sometimes, but they don't always check my look for me.

and we all RUSHED to yer page in a group stalking episode!!!!!!!!!! :lol: You are quite lovely!

Yes, your username does phunny things to my language processing centRE, as well.....

I say everything in my head as I read, and I briefly stop at your name every time I come across it. Me-MAW-mee........me-maw-MEE. . . ....MEE-ma-mee.. . . . . ....

At times it can sound rather sacred, like an ancient aboriginal spirit. ... .. ..

oh ma gah :lol: this cracked me up

Pieter firin' pizzle-stealing employees?

Hi all me psillies, including newbie, Ray-chill!

Speaking of Easter.......looks like Nathan will be home by then. :) Just wish Briana could be with us. Did I tell you she's gonna make me a grandma? :D We found out right before Nathan's diagnosis. They'd been talking about marriage, but now it's moved up......but yet it's also delayed because of Nathan. Anyway......this is the main reason she has stayed at home.I didn't want her going thru the worst of the stress. And she has been taking care of the house and critters. Zeus, I guess, has been seriously stressed.

Keep up the psilly!!!! I'll be going home next week and will have a computer to meself, so I'll be on more frequently.

Love you all!!!!!

Seems like some of us are starting to crawl out of the un-psilly woodwork. Suze- You sound like me! I have about 20% of my psilly back which is about 19% more than yesterday. I do have a funny story- hope it's not a "you had to be there". My sis and nieces were over last night as it was the anniversary of my mom passing and somehow we started smelling their feet. Olivia (who is 5) had smelly feet and Nicole (who is 3) did not. So, we're teasing smelly-footed Olivia and she turns around, looks at us with her head cocked and her eyes crossed in a red neck kind of way and says "Yup, I'm starting to smell just like my daddy" in this bizarre accent. Died laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, there is also apparently a channel that tells you what it is doing outside, and what it will be doing tomorrow, and the next day... . . .... . you could have flipped onto it, Jyesss, and not had to look outside to decide your coat choice!

I love weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone, check it out--I finally figured out how to upload an avatar. My man had to help me :o Brains, braun, and new laundry room cabinets, too ;) I'm not an idjut, but geez, too many pixels or something.

That's my dog Max, when he was just a wee pup.

Hello raychill!!!!!!! I love your pupster......so cute! And your pic is lovely too!

I shall not stalk you :ph34r:

Hi all me psillies, including newbie, Ray-chill!

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .
    • Francis M
      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.
