So anyway....I need to go out and get a few things (cards, groceries) and it's pouring. It literally never rains here, and the one day I have things to do, the sky opens up :o

Well, I guess we do need the water..... :rolleyes:

Summeresque :rolleyes: Sounds so romantically European :rolleyes: <sigh>

Hee! So I go to the store between the raindrops. I'm thinking this is actually the way to go since at least there's no blazing sun to contend wif. I'm pheeling pretty good enjoying the sultry but bearable air, and as I get to the car, trying to protect the bag with the cards and my magazine :P , I drop the big bag and the yogurt goes one way, the spaghetti squash rolls under the car next to me and the bag of walnuts is just laying there on the wet pavement. :huh:

I open the car door, of course now the rain is coming down harder and my whole seat gets wet while I load what I have on my arm and try to retrieve the stuff from the ground :angry:

It was really kinda funny, when you think about it B)

I got home just in time, though--it's so dark I had to turn on the light--looks like a stormy afternoon :D

Ummmm . . . then there was a lag . . . and the conversation picked up again from here . . .

Well, maybe if you saw Open Original Shared Link before she puts her makeup on in the morning . . . just kiddin' Em. By the way, I did not realize that the chupacabra was also known as a GOAT SUCKER. Now that really puts me into a quandry . . . If I get a goat tree, won't that just be attracking the chupacabras to my yard?? Do the sell anti-chupacabra spray to protect your goat trees??

I believe it all started with the phrase . . . The goat is the new yeti . . . or sumptin like that . . . from Thom??? . . . or was it talking about gluten-free meaning goat-free . . . who knows . . . and I'm not going back to find out!!! . . . OK . . . well, maybe later.

Play date is over. Peanut allergy girl is also allergic to dogs and of course Jo-dog is so dog-gone-cute (so is your Angus chupacabra, btw, Bev) that she couldn't help petting her and then I would tell her to wash her hands and I would get an eye-roll - not the really good one reserved for parents - just the "Oh mannnnn, she saw me touch the dog again!!!" eye-roll.

Alrighty then, Skeeter's now off for a sleep-over (that girl is majorly over-scheduled, someone should talk to her mother!!) and then it will be about time for Smakcl to go to Tae Kwon Do.

True dat about I-81. We'd always hit the blasted phog when traveling up to Syracuse.

Have a safe trip and a great time wif yer parents. :)

Happy Saturday, sills! The rain has moved out and we're expecting our normal hot, sunny weather. B) Will be going out to see the house later--it actually looks like a house now wif a roof, windows and framed walls :D

Yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Wedding Day! Bring your kleenex............. :wub: :wub: :wub: and may you dance!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jess- yay- no more 101 degrees for you!

Well, we had quite an exciting day here yesterday. They "think" (my neighbor saw it) a tornado ripped down our street and several near us. We had a "microburst" last summer but this time there was a twirling cloud. You should see our backyard....... a over 100 year old tree split in half and landed smack on the tool shed (9fell back- away from the house- thank God). Kurt slept through it :huh: :huh: and I was in the supermarket.

When I turned onto our street I almost pooped.........trees everywhere......obstacle course. Our fence is trashed, tool shed gone (neighbor annoyed- yeah- like it's OUR fault- because three large branches landed in his yard).

So glad it fell the other way........this way and it would have taken out the bedroom Kurt was asleep in!

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes...

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 seem to be more sensitive to minor amounts of gluten exposure than those with just one of those genes and those with only DQ2 seem to be more sensitive than those with only DQ8. But there are probably many factors that influence the damage rate to the villi as well as intensity of reaction to exposure. There is still a lot we don't know. One of the gray areas is in regard to those who are "silent" celiacs, i.e. those who seem to be asymptomatic or whose symptoms are so minor that they don't garner attention. When they get a small exposure (such as happens in cross contamination) and have no symptoms does that equate to no inflammation? We don't necessarily know. The "sensitive" celiac knows without a doubt, however, when they get exposure from cross contamination and the helps them know better what food products to avoid.
