Where are me psillies???? :huh:

My life has returned to normal..........or closer than it's been in a looong time.

No more wedding planning, company is gone (my sis flew home today), work starts on Friday.

Drove to the airport, did me grocery shopping, returned my shoes that sounded like birds chirping when I walked <_< , returned huge containers of peanut butter and chocolate syrup that didn't get used at the reception, bought really cute sandals, went to the chiropractor, fixed a quick dinner, and talkin to me psillies before I watch So You Think You Can Dance.

Nothing planned for my last day off before going back to work.

<bigsigh>

^_^

For days I thought I was being followed by an invisible miniature duck, then I realized it was my new sandals.

OMG.....cannot believe this coincidence... I was wandering through the house this aft and kept hearing a funny little noise, like a squeaky bird or mouse. Kept checking my shoes, then anything with a motor - - the fridge, freezer.... . .....couldn't trace it. And it was kinda moving, like from one corner of the kitchen to the hall. The dogs were non-plussed.

Well..........MY bird noise turned out to be coming from:

A BIRD.

:huh:

<_<

Tess or Bryce must have brought him in. A li'l sparrow, flitting about under the living-room curtains. He seemed okay, but had a very small chirp.....guess he did not want to draw the dogs' attention. So I picked him up quite easily and put him out under the chestnut tree. He was gone five minutes later.

Can you imagine a chirpy bird sound, and it's coming from a bird? :lol:

Been thinking about you, Joooodie. Nothing is more stressful than a big move..... ... but hey, it will be all over soon and you'll be in your new abode, and right near your son! :)

Thanks Em, you'll all have to come West to see me. B) ifn' I gets me butt there :lol:

Yep, He'd do best with a man I think.

He got his name Velcro b/c it was like he was velcro'd to Jim's body.

when ever he moves, Velcro is right beside him.........me............he could care less, but i love him anyway

Ditto here- get better Max!

Em- The Ripper will have a GREAT time at camp- bet it will get his mind off everything.

How is Max doing? Have you heard from the Ripper Em?

Hey--I just had a thought. If we ever all get together, we should bring our squeeky phootwear and do a little musical number. Jess could choreograph the thing--it would be kinda like playing the bells :lol: Except wif our pheet :P

Morning Sillies

A very tired morning. Was up till 1 finishing things up- and then I got up at 5:30 for work...leaving at 11 to go north home to drop off fair goods, and then I am returning to my house tonight and going back up tomorrow with John for judging....

The baking turned out good. I am anxious to see. I am also entering my PB fudge. First time entering the cooking contests, but I figured the gals at work are still surviving after eating my food that it might be fair worthy LOL

Yes we can have musical pheet!!! Our own Phunny orchestra.

Thinking about all my sillies and hoping you are all good :)

Good luck at the phair, Amanda!!!!! :D

Max seems better. I have to take him in for a blood draw daily, until his 'crit stops dropping. It was at 20 yesterday, which is at the bottom of the 'watch and wait' criteria. I'm hoping it will be the same today. Max is certainly perkier, and licking his tuna juice with more enthusiasm.

I have 8 cans of different cat food open in my fridge, four different jars of baby food, and tuna. I've got a container of cooked chicken, and a bit of raw beef in there as well. I slept through last night's 1 am feeding, so just did the 4 am, and a bit more just now (about 6:30).

There's food splotches all over the floor. Four different platters to choose from. Water bowls all over. Lyle and Lefty are about as full as they've ever been in their lives.

Just another normal day for a crazy cat lady...

Sounds like the blood draw should bring good news--yer taking such good care of the lil' guy. Glad to hear he's perking up :D

Let us know.

Guess what crazy thing happened yesterday . . . OK, I'll tell ya 'cause you'll never guess . . .

When my In-laws were here over the week-end, we were doing a bit of driving around. We had gone out to the horse barn so that Skeeter could introduce them to BlackJack (the horse she uses for lessons). On our way back, we drove through a neighborhood that was in it's early stages about 8 years ago when we were looking to move. We loved the neighborhood but couldn't afford it and ended up where we are now. We hadn't been back to the neighborhood and seeing how it turned out, we're somewhat glad that we didn't move there. Anyhow, my (step)MIL didn't care for it at all and so when we left, I decided to take her through one that is really close to our house (I was driving). It's a beautiful neighborhood and well out of our price range and the model is GORE-JUSS!!! My MIL walked in and stopped dead in her tracks and said "It's Beautiful" . . . Well, now the in-laws are thinking about moving . . . they currently live in the Washington DC area. They have a smaller house but worth more because it's DC. They called yesterday to tell us and arrange for my MIL to stay with us because she has "planning" meetings with the builder. It's all contingent on selling their home and what they can get for it and what the new one will cost. Mum's the word to the chidlins . . . don't want to get their hopes up if it all falls through. Go figger.

. . . and just for the record, I'm OK with it.

Jess . . . glad Max seems better . . . hope the bloodwork proves it.

Man, would I evah LOVE to do that, Joooooodie. We've been talking about the southwestern US as a vacation destination for a while, now........... . .

Keep yer ears open for a knock on your new front door in the next couple o' years, will ya? :)B)

Patteigh! What a great idea. All squeaky footwear at the ready. For percussion, we could incorporate this new popping noise that is happening with my new overuse injury atop my foot. Anybody have any cracking knees? They would work well, too. OH! And if we wait until May, when my mold allergy kicks in, we'll have my whistling nose at our disposal.

Now, THIS could collaborate into a veritable symphony. . ........!

:lol:

I've got a container of cooked chicken,

:huh:

:unsure:

Um. . . ..........now, the civckebs haven't seen any of this, mehopes. . . ...

Guess what crazy thing happened yesterday . . . OK, I'll tell ya 'cause you'll never guess . . .

Are you kidding?? Jahgnutt, I was gonna put forward that your in-laws were suddenly trolling for a home in yer neighboUrhood.......honest! <_<:rolleyes:

. . . and just for the record, I'm OK with it.

Oh, thank gawd. . . .. ... . ....

If my MIL suddenly decided to move into an adjoining neighboUrhood. .......

Em!!! When you do take that trip to the southwest, you must include Houston! Youse can stay wif us and we can go to the space center--and PF Changs. You would love running on the trails here in town (early in the day, of course) ;):D And I have wine B)

Jan-it--that's great about yer in-laws....as long as you're ok wif it. How wonderful for the kids if it all works out. :)

In addition to squeeky shoes, I have a right big toe that will crack at will. Might be good for that perfect flourish at the end of a number :rolleyes::lol: Ya know, instead of a triangle, er sumphin.

I ate pizza :o :o :o:D :D :D

I went down a different aisle in the grocery store and walked past the gourmet freezer and there it was-- Amy's gluten-free pizza! While it was really fun to have pizza after three years, for $7 -on sale- it should have been a whole lot better....

The absolute truf--I was in the shower a few minutes ago rinsing off the color, cracked my toe, thought of you guys and broke out laughing. To myself.

Our grocery store has empty cardboard "six packs" where people can mix and match bottles of wine and easily carry them away. You come, and we'll get a couple o' those. :D

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
