Cannae WAIT to hear what you think of the movie!!!!!

I don't live in a mansion, we have about 3600sqft. We essentially have an apartment in our basement. I use the kitchen for my cake decorating, the living room is our theater room and the bedroom is my gym. Now we're out a theater and a gym :rolleyes: I wasn't going to give up my kids' rooms and they each have 2 beds in their rooms. Hubby thinks maybe if all the guests are in the basement together, it will give them incentive to find an apartment sooner... ;)

I'll bring M & his tent & camping stuff. He & Max can live in the yard. M can make great gluten-free camp food! Can they have an extension cord to run a tv and XBox?

Hi (she says sheepishly)- I AM SO BEHIND! I have an excuse (or 3 though) really I do!

World Cuppage mania (Nikki can be my witness)

Lost on the wilds of VT for a week- on Lake Champlain where I could turn right to Canada or left to NY-we were 50 miles away from Montreal). Tis the poifect place for all of us!

Tele-hubby had stroke scare (not so funny). He's OK but for those of you who haven't been around c.com for 5 years (yikes!) he had a stroke in July of 2005 and lost half his cerebellum. He has very few left over complications but he was taken to the ER (while I was 5 hours away) because he was having similar symptoms.

So, I beg the pardon of our Queen. Just wanted to poop in and say hi!

My gosh Bevvie--I had no idea about K. That must have scared the daylights out of him--and you. So thankful it was just a scare. (((hug)))

How scary, Bev! The nerve of the guy having the symptoms while you were so far away! Glad he's OK.

Bevel! Gawd, how frightening..... .:o ..... . .thank goodness Kurt is okay. Nothin' like a stroke scare, I tell ya. But wait: Kurt is missing half his cerebellum?? What in hell? This is incredible.. . . .he functions so well.... . .! Isn't the brain a wondrous thing? Different, unrelated sections taking over the duties of parts that have been destroyed...just amazing.

Hey! Why in hell couldn't my spleen or my gall bladder have jumped to the plate and taken over for my useless pancreas? <_<:rolleyes:

Thanks youse guys- it TWAS scary because no matter what- plane, bus or drive, it was going to take 5 hours to get home (it was 10 PM and everything near was closed).

Yes- half of his cerebellum is dead. So weird. The brain amazes me- he had the same type of stroke that NFL player Tedy Bruschi had. They have no idea why but we have our suspicions (happened right after a chiro neck adjustment).

Em- Yes, and for that matter why can't my now defunct gall bladder have been revived as your pancreas? What the French Toast?

Have you guys seen the latest Open Original Shared Link

Just about snorted my nose into my head laughing. This guy is HEE-larious and Open Original Shared Link

Kurt found one on a news site he frequents called Reddit. They must have people helping him but this guy is killing me- alas, I still will NOT wear Old Spice. :lol: :lol:

Great!! You'll have to bring the X-box, we only have the PS3. We also have a 72" TV that he may enjoy......

Hi Judy! 95 here in Kansa City with the humidity 105. Does it cool down at night? When we lived in Sacramento it would be 110 but 65 at night. The new AC was expensive but it's working well.:)

Thanks for the note on FB. Ocean view.........heck the house would probably float to Mexico.

Glad you put where you live Karen I wasn't sure. Yes USUALLY does cool down with a great breeze but not last nite. Was still 88 at 9:00 PM.

Boy we spent years w/o AC. this house has it but it's so old hope it keeps working. Thought CA didn't have humidity biggrin.gif Found that wasn't truecool.gif

Gawd Leesiugh--it must be so hard to get yerself together in the morning wif yer arm strapped to you. How's the pain level?

No pain, really......unless I move :rolleyes: Seriously, though.....I've been doing pretty good pain-wise. I need to find me another one of these strappy things so's I have one to wear whilst I wash it. It's friggin hot here, too and this thang gets ......ripe :ph34r:

I go back to the orthopedic doc tomorrow and I'm askeert what he's gonna tell me. My arm bone moved out of place today. I think it's back in place now, but it was kinda freaky.....no......a lot freaky :(

Leeeesargh! Great news on the liability. A load off your mind, to be sure. And you`re getting cleaned up and dressed whilst trussed up like I saw you? Heavens. .. .. ... ..Don't overdo it,. girl!

I must say, that wide elastic support belt thang you are wearing is very slimming and flattering... . . . . Recovery Chic! ;)

:D

And ya know, it also does a good job of enhancing petite boobage ;)

Well, that gorgeous wee pup was sold to another family that got to 'im before I could. :( Ah, well.. .. . . .I know that I am ready to search, now.

Awwwww, that's too bad! Well......we can all look forward to more adorable prospective pupper pics :)

Bev....sorry to hear about Kurt. Jeez, what a scare! Hope he is OK.

....and Rayshell......I'd move in, but see no sense in moving from one crowded house into another <_< And me and spiders do NOT get along! :o

Bev, I just went back and read about Kurt. Gosh, that is scary sstuphh - hpe he is doing just fine now.

No pain, really......unless I move :rolleyes:

And me and spiders do NOT get along! :o

Whaddya mean, it moved out of place today???? that does not sound like a good thing to be happening! How's it going to heal??? I think you need to tell the doc that it is not immobilized :o

On a lighter note, glad to find I'm not the only arachnophobic 'round these parts. It's just those legs, :unsure: and the way they move, and the thought of where they might move to!! :blink:

Meant to comment on this earlier . . .

      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.

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight
    • DAR girl
      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats. 
    • Scott Adams
      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering. 
    • Oldturdle
      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!
