.........and what a day it is!

No rain expected Temperatures in the low 80's

Have a great day and try to relax and enjoy .....it's your turn for some fun. Weather sounds great.

Leesuh!!!! WIH are you doing on here???!!!! Don't you have anything you're suppose to be doing??? If you've got that much free time, come over and help clean . . . in-laws due to arrive in about two hours!!!

Hope everything goes smoothly today . . . and have fun!! . . . and btw, what ended up being "blue"?

HA :lol: had to agree

Yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Wedding Day! Bring your kleenex............. 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 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!

Em- I'm glad you have a wedding- I'm sure it will be bittersweet but some happiness after grief will be nice. Your dad would have wanted you to have PHUN!

I thought of you when the tree fell- I thought, one tree falls here, but it makes room for Em's tree. I think twas yer dad too! OMG if he meets my mom, she will pee her pants. She almost did when she watched Austin Powers and he met Allota Fagina :lol: :lol:

Maybe we'll plant a fagina goat tree to replace all those tools (OK- it WAS our S and M shed.......shhhhh...don't tell anyone :lol: :lol: )

Judith- SWINE FLU??????????????? You be careful and take care of thyself!

Fab party last night. My neighbour had a 'missing body parts' party.

:huh:

:huh:

THIS is a fascinating idea. Um.... . . . ....people are gathering together to celebrate the loss of a body part? 'Tis wondrous, and very strange. .. .......

Must it be an entire body part? Would liposuction count? How about plastic surgery, say, a nose job to reduce the size of a huge honker? Having a space where a donated kidney once was would make me festive. These things would indeed be something to celebrate. Appendix, tonsils, absessed teeth - - I could party over those things.

Castration?

Dunno how festive that guy would be feeling.

:huh::lol:

Come to think of it... I don't think I've got any missing body parts though :unsure:

Nik, you could throw a party for all those like you - - a bash for those entirely intact. That is reason for celebration, for sure. Um, I could come... . . . . .....but I have had a couple of teeth pulled, so perhaps not.

And my pancreas does not work a 'tall, but it is still in there, resting uselessly under my duodeum.

Let's plan it! I need party about now. . . . . . ......

MORNIN PSILLIES!!!!

What an awesome wedding. Many comments from people that it was the prettiest wedding they'd ever seen! Did I tell you how the bride and father were to arrive at the altar? I think I did, but here's a quick recap.......

My in-law's back yard has a steep drop down to a horse-shoe shaped creek. Hubby and bride rode a white, flower be-decked porch swing rigged to a cable down to the altar. Trees all around. Flower girl, ring bearer, and maid-of-honor walked down a cobblestone path and across a foot bridge. The photographer was ecstatic!

....Oooh....and before the wedding started, when the photographer was being shown around, a doe apppeared along the creek! She got pictures!

Hope everything goes smoothly today . . . and have fun!! . . . and btw, what ended up being "blue"?

Eh.......the predictable garter.......which, by the way, fell apart when she tried to put it on :angry:

My house is finally below 70.

Brrrrr........I'd be gettin out me sweaters!

DR SAID YESTERDAY THE 102 TEMP, CHILLS, ACHES AND PAINS, EXHAUSTION WERE ETIHER MILD CASE OF SWINE FLU OR A VIRUS OF SOME KIND.......

WIH???? Why would he say that? Could just have well been some other flu!

Come to think of it... I don't think I've got any missing body parts though :unsure:

ooh!!!!!I could so be there! I'm missing my gallbladder and half my thyroid.

Hmmmmm.....actually...............I'm also still seaching for me butt and boobs :unsure::ph34r:

Morning Sillies! Why oh why is it Monday already? It feels like the weekends go by in the blink of an eye. I only work 3 1/2 days. Then its off to fair judging. I wish I had more time off. So now I am sitting at my desk, dreading starting my work.

Between my sister and then my sil the drama levels in both my house and John's house is through the roof. Both of them don't work but are making choices that they dont have money for.

I can't wait to see pictures. It soounds so beautiful and such happiness after such drama!

I love the Mother/bride dance! SO AWESOME!

It has just sunk in how destroyed our backyard is. Even the crows were wandering around this weekend gabbing and chatting "Hey- where's my branch? You took it, didn't you?" "No dude, it's on that strange edifice that no longer has walls" "no dude, it's 2 yards over: :lol:

Our trees impacted 5 yards!

So here is the Family stuff cause I have some more to time to type.

Let's start with my SIL--Has a baby who is 1 1/2. She doesn't work and has no intentions to either. She smokes weed every day....it normalizes her...she claims...She finally got married 2 months ago. They live in a house that his dad owned but gave it to them...Now they are going for a home that is 250k and expect that her dad will cosign a loan for them....John tried to explain to her that our house @ 120k came with a mortgage over 1k--she got all mad and told him that he needs to support her choices...My inlaws have her baby all the time so she can party and drink and smoke...she drops off the kid friday nights and it stays there until Monday morning....must be the life right?

My sister and her DH bought a house that a few years ago was 340k and went into foreclosure and they got the house for 130k. It needs lots and lots of work..My big problem with her is she keeps dropping of her two little ones to my poor mother. My mom has literally had those 2 for the past 3 weeks...Silvia should have been my baby- I give her more attention and love than Tammy ever did. Over the weekend Tammy let it slip that she didnt want Silvia....but she went on to have her....and you know I know she didnt need the 2nd baby. I knew all along that poor Silvia would be pushed to the side with the new baby. And she was. The poor kid was just turning two when she got a new sis. She is still at the age that she needs her mother and now she is fending for herself. Tammy will find out one day. When she calls my moms to talk to Silvia, Silvia wont go to the phone, but then tells my mom she wants to talk to me.

So there is my venting for today...oh and for SIL- the inlaws dont know she has any bad habits. MIL thinks she makes such a great mom....yep....

Can eunuch-ism be reversed?

Wow....I dunno. :huh: A reverse castration would need to involve donated testicles, one should think....or fabricated ones, out of extra stomach/thigh muscle and skin er sumfin'.

Who in hell's gonna donate their testicles to a eunuch who's changed his/its mind?

:huh:

:lol:

...Silvia should have been my baby- I give her more attention and love than Tammy ever did.

When she calls my moms to talk to Silvia, Silvia wont go to the phone, but then tells my mom she wants to talk to me.

Such family troubles, Manda. :( But reading this, I see that you just need to be the best, most loving and supportive aunt that you can be. Sounds like Sylvia needs more mothering from somewhere, and she is so lucky to have you and your mom.

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      Geography makes a difference.  I'm in the West and Trader Joe's gluten-free bread tastes great and is a better price than most gluten-free breads sold elsewhere in my area.

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?

      By the time I was 5 I had my first auto0immune disorder, Migraine headaches, with auras to blind me, and vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound. I was 5 years old, and my stepfather would have pizza night, milling his own flour, making thick cheesy gluten pizza, that I would eat and the next day, I would have serious migraines, and my mother & stepfather did nothing about my medical problems. When I was 17 in my first year at college, I was diagnosed with my 2nd known auto-immune disorder, Meniere's disease. I was a elite athlete, a swimmer, and soccer player. And once again my parents didn't think anything of understanding why I had a disorder only older people get. Now after my mother passed from Alzheimer's disease she also suffered with living with gluten. She had a rash for 30 years that nobody could diagnose. She was itchy for 45 years total. My brother had a encapsulated virus explodes in his spleen and when this happened his entire intestines were covered with adhesions, scar tissue and he almost lost his life. He has 5 daughters, and when I finally was diagnosed after being pregnant and my body went into a cytokine storm, I lost my chance to have children, I ended up having Hashimoto's disease, Degenerative Disc disease, and my body started to shut down during my first trimester. I am 6ft tall and got down to 119lbs. My husband and I went to a special immunologist in Terrace, California. They took 17 vials of blood as we flew there for a day and returned home that evening. In 3 weeks, we had the answer, I have Celiac disease. Once this was known, only my father and husband made efforts to change their way of feeding me. At the family cabin, my stepfather & mother were more worried that I would ruin Thanksgiving Dinner. It wasn't until one of my cousins was diagnosed with Celiac disease. They finally looked into getting Gluten Free flour and taking measures to limit "gluten" in meals. He did nothing but ask for me to pay for my own food and wi-fi when I came to the cabin to stay after our house burned down. When he informed my mother, they proceeding to get into a physical fight and she ended up with a black eye. The is just more trauma for me. Sam had no interest in telling the truth about what he wanted. He lied to my mother that he had asked my husband if I could pay for "food" when he asked Geoffrey if I had money to pay for my wi-fi. My mother hates when he spends so much time on the computer so he lied and said I could pay for my own food. I will remind you I weighed 119lbs at this time. (At 6ft) that is a very sick looking person. Neither parent was worried about my weight, they just fought about how cheap my stepfather was. As my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2014. He had her sign over the will to a trust and added his children. He had no testimonial capacity at the time, so she signed without proper papers. Making this Trust null and void. When I gave my brother my childhood home, my mother stated I would be getting an equal part of inheritance to the house on Race. It currently worth 2.0 million $. I got nothing, and my stepfather has since disowned me b/c of my claim and he knows that my mother would never have left it uneven between my biological brother and myself. She sat me and my husband down, as we lived at the Race Street house and treated and took care of it as our own. My brother took over b/c he was going through a horrific divorce and needed a home so he could get a better custody deal with his soon to be ex-wife who was a Assist DA for Denver. She used the girls against him, and he & I were the primary caregivers. We, Judd and I spent the most time with them pre the divorce. Once Judd moved into the house, he threw all of my mother, grandmother and my family heirlooms out to the Goodwill. Nobody told my mother about this as she was going through cancer treatment and had Alzheimer's disease in her mother and her sister. My stepfather and biological brother took advantage of this matter, as I called a "family council" that my brother just never could make it to at the last moment. All of the furnishing, kitchen ware, everything was in the house my brother just moved into. He had had 2 weddings, I chose to elope b/c my stepfather ruined my brother's first wedding by talking about his relationship with my brother in front of my dad and his entire family, insulting him and having my grandfather leave the ceremony. It was a disaster. My stepfather just plays dumb and blames my father for the slight. I was the only child not to have a wedding. So, my mother and stepfather never had to pay for a thing. My mother had had an agreement with my father he'd pay for college and all medical issues with their kids, myself and Judd. So truly my mother never had to pay for anything big for me in her entire life. I am looking for anyone that has had a similar story, where they grew up in a household that had a baker that regularly milled flour and ate gluten. What happened to you? DId you suffer from different auto-immune diseases b/c of living with a baker using "gluten" Please let me know. I have been looking into legal ways to get my stepfather to give me what my mother had promised, and he erased. Thank you for listening to my story. Jane Donnelly

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.
