Juday, Juday, Juday! Yay! Hurray!!! We knew it'd all work out. Now hurry up to pack and clear out and get yerselves settled before the dust clears! Wishing you the best of luck with your move! :D I don't remember.....how'd you make out with Velcro? Good news, I hope.

Manda-ville......so glad for the good news for you two too tew! Also something that will work out in good time as it is meant to be! Hurray for swimmers.....do they do the synchro-swim? :P (with matching suits...I imagine). Hurray for those of us who don't have swimmers that don't want them too tew. I tried that once......twas enough.

Phhhhfffftttt to all things diet! Phood is tew much a pain in the patootie. Hate the stuff....wish I could just suck up nutrients out the air....like osmosis or somethin'. Have been doing some reading about differing ideas for "healthy" eating. You can find info. that'll say just about anything you want it to say. Veggies and carbs but no meat/dairy/eggs. Meat and hi-protein but no legumes. Drink you way to health! Sugar is all you need to survive.....what have you. Too confuzzling. Got all I can do to avoid the Dreaded Wheat!

Love all of the cute little pic's I'm seeing. They make me smile.

Really bad pain day today.......have no idea if there's some phood that makes it flair up? Or maybe that viscious (bi)cycle of not sleeping.....=more pain...=not sleeping......just dunno. At least the sun is shining. Wind really bad right now, so there are not very many visitors to The Park. I don't mind that so much, today! ;)

Coffeeeee....mmmmmm.....coffeeeeee.....I think I have that in my veins instead of the red stuff! For a while I cut back and could barely function. I still don't drink nearly what I used to ...... from sunup to bedtime....anytime was good. Telehubby can only tolerate a small amount in the morning, so it's easier for me to hold back.

Hope everyone has only good things to do, be, pheel today!

That's what I'm talking about baby! Jess- Go get several dates with one of those......or multiple dates with many of those. It will make "practicing" so much less like practice! And remember, practice makes perfect!

JOODEE- YAHOO! Temecula is so so so beautiful (well it was in 1989 when I was there- So Cal wine country!). And Velcro is going on a road trip.........I think Halloween is a good omen. They say it's the day of the year we are closest to the spirit world so hopefully there shall be angels flying right alongside yer car!

Now take a BIG DEEP BREATH and say, Phew! Then go get one of the guys Rachelle found and use him as the new throw on yer bed!!!!!!!!!!

I hear ya! 'Tis beeeooootiful ....... .. . . .

But the Atlantic coast is spectacular, too, methinks. . ....... ....

It's just the bloody middle of the continent, i.e., Ontario southward, that is blah.... .. . . ... :rolleyes:

The Atlantic Coast is where me is but I must admit when I was in San Diego I did enjoy the West Coast- Loved Mission Beach!

West Coast!!!!

Good morning, pholks! :) :)

Tis Phriday, which matters to many. Phor me, Saturday is the last day of the usual work week.

Up here in Canada, Thanksgiving is this Monday, so this is the last loooong weekend of the year.

Holy Cow! Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize! :o

Most of the West Coast is gorgeous. Then there is LA. B)

elye Community Regular

Holeeeeee crap. .... . . .... -_-:unsure::wacko::wacko: .....been up since 4:20 am, wide awake......oy. 'Tis 7:20 according to my now hard-wired eastern-standard body clock. AND I shall be falling asleep at 7:30 pm. <_<

Jeez, haven't seen any of those Seattle men across this pond, wandering about. Just a plethora of seniors. There are more citizens over the age of 65 in the greater Victoria area than probably anywhere else on the planet... . ...even more than in those isolated Japanese islands where we see pictures of entire villages, all stooped, wrinkled-up individuals who are 103, climbing mountains and eating yogurt....it seems quite like that here. :lol:

Um, DH emailed me with the news that the extended forecast has revealed light snow falling in Ottawa on October 15th.

That is next week. . .........

:huh::o

Gads. . ........wanna stay out here. . . ...

How is everyone? It is Friday!!!!

flourgirl Apprentice

Just poppin in to say hi! Don't want to hear any 4-letter s-swear words! Oh no, no, no. I moved away from that stuff.....well....we do actually get "some" here, but not enough to count! So cute to see kids offering to shovel yer snauwwwwgh when there's only an inch of it! :D Wonder where they were when I had to struggle with many feet of it!?!

Tis 80+ degrees.....I'm lovin it. S'posed to get thunder storms later...lovin even more! THEN it gets *cold* again....hi tomorrow of 64 (shudder!!!)

Made applesauce today, and put up some sweet potatoes. Got enough stuff from the gardens this year....won't starve this winter, that's for sure. We even made jam! Butternut squash went wild this summer....and as I'm curing and storing the stuff, Telehubby pointed out that we could eat 1 or 2 a week and still be eating it when we harvest next years! Been giving it away. Have not yet had to resort to anonymously leaving them on doorsteps! :lol:

I really want to get at cleaning up outside. BUT we still have lots of flowers! Even my impatiens still looks good! Hope the frost never comes this year!

Hope everyone is loving the day! Have a great weekend!

How do you tell when it's ready to be picked. Mine is going crazy but I haven't picked any yet. Some of the older ones have lost their pale stripes and are now a solid color whereas the smaller/newer ones still have light green stripes. The stem is still green...This is my 1st garden :o I've learned SOOOO much this year-especially not to grow watermelons where people can easily steal them!!!! <_<

      Many of the symptoms, there are over 200, associated with celiac disease and NCGS are vitamin and mineral deficiencies caused by small intestine damage in the case of celiac disease and food avoidance and the poor nutrittion of the Modern American Diet (MAD) I used to turn the heat on even at 78 degrees.  The 600 mcg of Liquid Iodine helped.  Also good for hair, nails, skin and brain fog.  Another good thing for brain fog is phosphatyl choline.  It is essentil for acetylcholine- a brain chemical. I have familial hyperlipdemia and instead of a statin I got a prescription for Nicotinic Acid, 2000 mg a day.  I was already taking 500 mg a day and was really surprised when my HDL when up to  44 and I began sleeping better and my legs and back are getting more flexible.  In addition after the first few doses of itchiness I get a warm fuzzy feeling Raising your vitamin D is crucial.  Low vitamin D allows the immune system to run amuck. intermittent bouts of fatigue, chills/cold intolerance, and shortness of breath/air hunger (sometimes feels like a hollowness in my chest, hard to describe).  Look at Thiamin deficiency. consistently ran hot, was always cranking the a/c, to someone who wears a down vest.  Any combination of deficiencies in B1, B2, B3, B5, choline and Iodine can cause this.  Likely all of them. After a lifetime of mouthbreathing GFD cleared my sinuses.  Post nasal drip is my first symptom of cross contamination nowaday.

      If you mean continueing on Gluten Free my answer is yes.  She showed significant improvement in her behavior and that translates to a happy family.  Do get her tested as sooon as you can.  You might want to investigate genetic testing for Celiac Disease.  Children recover more quickly than adults.  It took my son about 6 months on Nutramigen before going to regular food, gluten free.  Blood tests are not always accurate in very young children. You may be advised to see a gastroenterologist instead of relying on blood tests results. Logic: She is better off gluten than before.  Wheat flour has no nutritional value and has an omega 6: omega 3 ratio of 22:1.  Our bodies do better at 3:1.  Omega 6 causes inflammation. When my son was diagnosed, back in 1976, his doctor recommended my wife and I also go gluten free.  We declined and lived to regret it.  I started GFD at 63 and have spent the last 10 years undoing the damage, some of my symptons went all the way back to my childhood and things I lived with all my life got better.
    • Wheatwacked
      Hi @Nicbent35,             When my son was diagnosed with Celiac Disease when he was weaned, so I understand your frustration.       With improvement so dramatic, it cannot be a coincedence. Get her to the doctor and tell the story and insist on testing.  In the meantime, though, continue on GFD.  Her health is more important than convincing a doctor.  Bring videos of her behaviors if you can.  Even if the blood tests and biopsy prove negative, that is part of the diagnosis process for NCGS and later when she is recovered you can always do a Gluten Challenge.      This is an important time in her developement.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption syndrome, leading to malnutrition, regardles of what she eats.  Though NCGS may not cause malabsorption, it will affect food choices which can lead to malnutrition.  There may be benifits that an official diagnosis may have, but they don't trump a healthy child.      Get her healthy, then worry about validation later.  Celiac Disease is difficult to diagnosed, especially in children, because doctors look for antibodies in the blood and young children have immature immune systems.  Also you don't mention any gastrologic symtoms and celiac disease is traditionally considered gastrolic only.  Not true.  There are over 200 symptom that celiac disease and the accompaning malnutrion mimics or causes that often causes misdiagnosis and delay in recovery. While at the doctors, ask them about vitamin D deficiency and Iodine deficiency in particular. Milk being the primary source of iodine in the diet, but concerns exist regarding the lower iodine content in organic milk and reduced milk consumption in certain demographics.  Vitamin D deficiency is 40% of the industrialized population and a recent study in the Great Britain showed a wopping 60%, beaten only by some areas of Canada at 70%. And B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6.  Deficiencies in these are common in untreated Celiac Disease and they affect energy production. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results?
    • knitty kitty
      @plumbago, Are you taking any folate with your B12?   Folate helps regulate HDL levels.  You may try taking a methylfolate supplement with your B12.   If there's a folate deficiency because you aren't absorbing sufficient folate, or have the MThF mutation causing a functional folate deficiency (methylfolate trap), you can have a functional B12 deficiency despite supplementing, resulting in HDL levels not getting regulated, but running high or low.   Pushing the envelope in explanations, too. P. S. Are you taking a B Complex?  Folate and B12 Cobalamine need enzymes made from B6 Pyridoxine's interaction with Thiamine, and B2 Riboflavin's interaction with Thiamine.  Is your Vitamin D low?
    • Nicbent35
      Thank you for all that helpful info, does that mean it’s not a good idea to do what I’m doing? Or since it’s only been a week should I see if I could get her tested now? Would it show up still since it hasn’t been long if they tested her?
