God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

Then Satan created HMOs.

Janet! :lol: OMG you're killing me! :lol: :lol: That was a great laugh for a stinky Monday morning!!!

Jin, I'm in north central North Carolina. I've been doing the same thing- a/c during the day, because it's 80+ degrees, then I turn on the heat at night because it's 50 degrees! I'm trying to keep the house at a consistent temperature, though, just switching from air to heat. So hopefully it won't kill my electric bill too much.

A few years ago, in March, I think, we had two weeks in the 70s, and bam, it snowed. :o WTH? It makes me crazy when the weather does stuff like that!

So my hospital is opening a state of the art cancer institute in 2009, everything will be under one roof instead of spread all over the campus like it is currently. Today was the dedication ceremony and We got to sign the steel beam that will be visible in the new building. It was neat.

Jesus would have handed out the bread to his apostles and said something like, "This is my body given to you; do this in rememberance of...gee, I dunno about you guys, but this stuff makes me feel really bloated and achy"...

A whole different set of parables. Light, I think you should run with this. "Genetically Modified Grain in the Age of Christ: The Rewriting of the Testaments"... :rolleyes::lol:

Can you imagine.....Jesus and the apostles in FULL neurotoxic depression from highly-glutenized wheat and modified "food" proteins.......they would have been tired, cranky, bloated and pissy and gotten very little done! (like me, for most of my paltry life :angry::huh:)

Thanks for the segue, Jin . . .

:lol: that one always make me out of my mind (with glee)

I was watching from bed, too :lol: The second half, anyway....I chuckled during the scene at the party where Edie was watching who was taking the crab cakes--and then the light dawned :o:D

I'll be thinking good thoughts that the Weasel-puppy is ok and it's all nothing serious. :)

Didn't watch DH last night (Desparate Housewives, not Dear Husband). Actually, I did watch him raking up the bijillion leaves in our backyard. Fall is here, but not according to the thermometer.

So, where are the guys? The very nerve of Richard, actually doing some work. Could that really be happening? Tom has had bubble boy syndrome of late. Hmmmmm...not the same without them.

No skating party just yet :rolleyes:

I AM at work, and I AM at my desk looking diligent, but mostly feeling like crap. Someone snuck me some gluten over the weekend, so I spent the night tossing and turning trying to untwist my bowels...I should have stayed home...but I had to leave the house to drop the kids @ school. Now just killing time, trying not to soil myself. (where's the green guy when you need him :blink: )

Carry on

Oh Richard--not the gluten-induced tossing and turning :( . Happens to me every time--ugh.

Hang in there and I hope it doesn't last too long. :)

I hope whoever snuck you that gluten didn't do it on purpose :angry:

I didn't actually SEE the 'Hoff (incidentally that is the sound my dog used to make as she 'Hoffed something up) in my neighboorhood, so I can't point fingers...

I'm pretty sure it was my Saturday dinner date with my wife's friends. They are well meaning but basically clueless :( It could have been anything. (anything except the "peanut blossoms" i made Saturday and have been snarfing ever since :rolleyes: )

Why!, it's an (empty) Aga.

Looks lovely Carla - hows the kitchen coming on?

BAH on clueless dinner dates Richard <_<

Gonna have to join the ranks of 'got a sick pet' :(

Willbee (Will the kitty) fell off the dining table (missed the chair on his jump down - due to an over zealous shoo-ing by hubby <_< ) INJURED his leg :( ....can't put any weight on it! <_< ..is mewing!! <_<

Hubby is IN THE DOGHOUSE! :angry: for being heavyhanded and it looks like I'll be paying a visit to the vets too (cha-CHING indeed!)

Perhaps me & Susie could set up an international fund 'for people who can't really afford to take their pets to the vets' :lol:

Oh dear :( ...poor pets

oooohhhhh....looking nervously at my huge, goofball, uncoordinated and heavily accident-prone standard poodle...something's in the air! It's travelled to England...what's to stop it floating up here? Gotta watch him.

Sorry about the intestinal grenades, Richard. One of the symptoms I do NOT have when glutened, very fortunately, is obvious flatulence. I'm assuming you do, hence the gas mask. Safe to guess that you remain fairly alone at your end of the office? :P:D

Hi Sillies.

The snow is in Denver, CO.

Which silly lives in NC? I'm jealous, that's where the Blue Ridge Mtns. are right?? Must get there in my lifetime....

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth and populated the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.

Excellent Janet, I love this!

So sorry Richard you got glutened :( I hope you feel better soon.

With The Hoff on the loose, you never know....

:lol: Patti

Tis true, I saw on the news that the Hoff was reportedly frolicking naked through Richard's neighborhood passing out gluten whilst smelling of wee......

Nikki, that picture was taken about an hour ago ... so, today and tomorrow, my Aga is getting installed ... then the tile floor. Next week, cabinets. :)

I'm not caught up ... I just needed to share my excitement, and no one here even knows what it is! LOL

I've been feeling much better, so have been too busy to keep up with the 30 pages per day! Where were you guys when I was feeling bad?! :P

Snow, yuck!!

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
