Howdy . . . what I miss?? . . . :rolleyes:

Em, glad to hear yer dad is through his surgery . . . hope they got him all fixed up.

YYYYYAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!

Although I'll try not to get too excited, as I believe some other darned poster teased me with a Seattle visit, and then bailed. <_<

I'm thinkin' that was suppose to be a big hint. I'm still planning on gettin' meselph to Seattle . . . just don't know when. Things are just a bit unsettled at the moment.

When I rang the washing machine repair peeps I explained what was wrong (needed new door)...I begged 'Please don't send a man empty handed!...order it now pleeeeease'

Man turned up EMPTY HANDED (pointless call out).....it will take another 8 FLIPPIN' DAYS to get the door

....INCOMPETANT BUFFOONERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, his thumbs were reeeeal small AND he stunk of cigarettes :angry:

BOO HOO :( .... <whiney voice> I WANT A WASHER!!!!!!!

:lol:

Nik, check in wif the gal that you got yer dishwasher from!!! Perhaps she recently acquired a new washing machine and would like to trade DC for her old washer . . . talk about win-win . . . (Susie!! AVERT your eyes!!! I'm going to use some mathS) . . . oh, that would just be win2 for you.

(We "visited" the horse for almost three hours :lol: ) There are now 10 cubic yards of mulch blocking our garage. There appear to be three trees kickin' the bucket in the back yard. Our frog has run away. Aphids are already infesting my honeysuckle. I have to help unload a truckload of flowers at school tomorrow . . . I have to be there at 6 am :o WIH was I thinking.

Hi Jan-it!! :DB)

HiYa Padtee!! I too want to see your Big Tex-Ass hair!!

DingoGirl Enthusiast

there's jhann-et, FINALLY squiggling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pahteee! We wanna see yer BIG, TEX-ASS hair!! On a very humid day. . . ...!!

OMG. . . . . ..... . . . . Do I look....hot and sweaty?? Drunk?.... lord, did not know I would be caught on film and thrown up onto the internet. .. . .What in hell was I wearing?. . . ...Think I had food on me face.....certainly NO lipstick.....gads. . . . ..

big Tex-ASS hair :lol: :lol: good one!

Emmel! good news on yer dad! We await further reports.....want to know when he starts being psillie with the nurses - always a sign he's better ;)

GAH!!!!!!!! there's Emn and the Ripper in the photos!!!!!!!!!!! You do nae look hot and sweaty and food-smeared.........Poeter's brother looks quite cool and dry also.........looks like a lovely event!

Gotta get going cos today my housesitter arrives (no, not to housesit--she had nowhere to go this month so she is going to stay in our unit out the back for most of the next month until we leave and I have to fix it up for her). Good deal, she stays free and does gardening for me. With my back and hands the last year the garden has suffered (garden, you call that a garden?? What are those things growing there? Them's weeds, me friends, millions of 'em, everywhere; some of 'em I don't even know what they are, heck they could be exotic arboreal specimens for all I know, I get stuff volunteering all the time, cabbage trees (yeah, really, look it up (cordyline), took me a long while to figure out what they looked like as babies!) and oodles of stuff with Maori names I nae can pronounce adequately let alone spell, and lots of pitysporums which are nice in the right place but not smack dab in the middle of a leucodendron. Anyways, thank goodness Barb knows 'bout such things and has a strong back and a willing heart so she will help me out and I will treat her real good because my garden has been driving me CRAAZEE!

this is a magical paragraph. :lol: Maori weeds......very exotic. Pitisporum, growing wild? I have just been pondering the planting of same! leucodendron? cordyline? Must look all of these up......so mysterious sounding :rolleyes:

Um......does anyone know where Shroomie actually from? (er - from whence Shroomie hails, excuse my grammar) Shroomie - so mysterious - are you American? Kiwi? German? WHOT?

She's so mysterious, it's kind of torturing me a wee bit :lol:

LOL :lol: @ yer boss calling you ass hat !!!!

:lol: I taught him and he over-uses it now....yesterday the four of us in the office decided a sitcom could be filmed of just our interaction in there....... :o highly psillie and unprofessional :lol:

night-night, Nikerler!

Well sills.........I am to go out in 2.5 hours for happy hour.........do NOT want to go......feeling rather frumpasaurus today, and cranky and tired, stricken with ennui, :lol: don't know if I can pull it together.........

ha-RUMPHFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!! :mellow:

:( Not too sure . . . she's not one for sharing much where her health is concerned and the info that I have gotten has not been too good which makes me worried about what she is not telling me. I'm headed home (Illinois) for Mother's Day weekend and doing her flower beds for her.

But here is a "feel good" story for you . . . a friend of the family (Hubby's family) donated a kidney to a perfect stranger yesterday . . . she wanted to make a difference and this was how she decided to do it.

Well, it was a pretty good evening indoors. Twas pouring rain in Toronto all evening, and it is still coming down. For those of you wanting pictures, I have only one. Here is Rob autographing our copy of WAKE. No problem with heat, but occasional cold moments when the doors to the smoking area outdoor patio opened. Did I mention that it was pouring and windy?

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
