It was a rainy day in Toronto. A very rainy day, with an inch expected over 24 hours. If I wanted weather like this I'd have moved to Vancouver. :D

You could live in Kansas City. We got about 3 inches yesterday. Worse for the dog is that there was thunder most of the day. He wouldn't go out to do his bodily business until it stopped and Hub went with him at 10:30 pm.

Your hub won't go out to do his poops or pees in thunderstorms either? They both must have been dancing around the back door 'til 10:30.. .. . ..

:P

Me, too.. . . . . there's no comparison! I don't actually roast them that often.. . . . . ....when I do, I just keep throwing them back by the handful. :ph34r:

There's, what, 200 calories in a single almond?

:lol: :lol: He looks quite heeelarryus. Like a little, gangly teenager, tripping over his big paws but carrying around a rather mature haircut. Elsie is now having trouble pinning him down - - he's growing into those feet!

My Vancouver or yours ;) It's been muggy, rainy and sunny :blink: . The muggieness is soooo uncomfortable. You look outside, see it's raining, pull on a sweater and Ugg's, walk outside and you're sweating buckets in 2 seconds :blink: Make up yer mind!!! :rolleyes:

So the 4th grade classes were split. 23 kids in each class. DD decided that she wanted to stay with the current teacher bc she loves her to pieces. That means that she will just have to deal with the boy, keep her distance and keep her eyes and ears open-as will I!!

Good practice for life. Learning to recognize and deal with a wierd guy will help her later, too. Who knows, this year he might like another girl to torment. I remember you said his Dad died. Unfortunately, my boys have had several friends who have lost fathers. Seems like they do OK for 6-12 months then have about a year of problems. Being boys, the anger and hurt comes out as agression. Not acceptable, certainly. Hopefully, he is getting help for that. Good luck!

I agree! Also, it's her body, she has bo be in charge of it. She needs to learn how to stand up for herself and not allow anyone to treat her poorly. She does a pretty good job, I am very proud of the way she has dealt with all of this-very mature! They're going to have the 'puberty' talk in school soon and even though we've discussed most of it already, it will be good for us to sit down together and have a refresher. She's mortified, of course ;)

Ok, I have an evil plan forming in my head. I'm hoping it comes with huges laughs from my mom and step-dad, but I need opinions before I do it....

Preface--All my family = huge UW fans. Purple and Gold all the way.... Me, I'm an outcast because I defected and went to the rival school WSU (and met hubby, major family loyalty to WSU)-- Crimson and grey 4ever!! :P

Sooooo, my mom and stepdad are having a huge UW season kickoff party tomorrow and my mom wanted me to do a cake. I'm planning on doing a replica of the UW football helmet, purple and gold. But..... she didn't specify what kind of cake she wanted, so I'm thinking of doing a red velvet with a grey tinted buttercream, so when my stepdad cuts into it..... SURPRISE!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

Well, I think I'm phunny! :P

My Vancouver or yours ;)

I was thinking of Vancouver, BC, where they have what they call "liquid sunshine" on the majority of days outside of summer. This is from being right on the coast. Your Vancouver is a ways inland.

Today is bright and sunny. B)

Reminds me of the movie Steel Magnolias...the groom's cake is a giant armadillo with grey icing. They comment on how gross grey icing is.

Good for her!

Yup.....our annual sex-ed discussion is coming up, too. Time to refresh my memory on some signs I don't normally use on a typical day :rolleyes:

Must be prepared for anything. The older they get, the more graphic the questions :ph34r:

Will preface this with: no humans or other living beings harmed. J was coming home from football practice tonight ( game was last night). He was in a line of cars full of fb players going home. A car that had nothing to do with fb, had the gall to stop to make a left turn into a gated road. They use a garage door opener thingy to open the gate. The kid in front of J slammed on the brakes. J slammed on the brakes. Kid behind him didn't stop in time. Wish I had taken a pic of his Toyota. It's totaled at about 20 mph. J's old ford truck has slight bumper damage. It adds character to his beater truck. The police officer seemed to see the humor in it. I asked the kid that hit J if he learned anything from this. He said," not to follow so close". I said, " actually I was thinking that now you know what to do if you have another wreck."

This happened 1 block from our house so they called me. I asked did I need to bring duct tape or string to tie anything up on either car. J - no my cars fine. Friends car doesn't have anything dragging. I get there & all the fluids are leaking, the whole front end is crumpled up to the windshield ( friends car). But nothing was dragging! :)

Glad you had phun Leese!!

My friend is a fitness instructor & she's just done the Zumba workshop. It's starting at my gym next month.

Anyhoo - she didn't actually rate it that much unsure.gif - she already teaches 'Body Jam' and thinks this is much better.

I really couldn't say as I don't do ANY of the dancey type exercise classes (am cr@p at them! laugh.gif)

      New Study Reveals Age and Racial Gaps in Pediatric Celiac Testing

      The practical takeaway: "For people who care about celiac disease, especially families who have children at higher risk, the findings highlight the importance of self-advocacy." It's the only parameter that the affected individual or their family members have control over. We need to learn to become "politely pushy" in order to get proper testing done when...

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results.

      Help understand results

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease...

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Fruits & Veggies

      By Jordan Carlson · Posted

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
