Not wearing his cape? Not even his glasses?

Mods, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this forum allows those type of pics. No matter how skinny the nakey person might be. :ph34r:

( The last one had on a Santa hat)

He not naked - I save those pics for me (tee -hee). Just younger and in better shape. I just put my turkey in. I'm cooking it at 350 not 325 because my oven is not accurate. Tony got up a little earlier today than usual. He's been sleeping until 11:00 or 12:00. I miss the days when he believed in santa and rushed into our room at 5 AM. We were able to put the presents out the night before. Clark already had one of the books I bought him (2 Jon Stewart books). Tony LOVED the Enormix Condom as well as the gliding Jesus action figure and some kind of unicorn action figure set Clark picked out. Tony bought me a beautiful Swarsky Crystal Butterfly that says I love you on it (I collect them and when he was going to some of the graduation parties for the girls he was close with I let him give them a few of my pieces). He got Clark Kill Bill I & II.

We're staying home and having a laid back Christmas. it's only 11:00 but I'm thinking of having a glass of vino.

Wishing all of my dear psillies a very merry Christmas. I count my new pfamily among my blessings!!!!!!!

Not sure if I ever told y'all about the end of my ex saga.

He was renting the spare room in my house, which I thought was a great deal for someone since I leave at 5 or 6 am and get home at 7 or 8 and pretty much go straight to bed, but he didn't seem to like it. Anyway, Feb? March? of last year he told me he was putting his stuff in storage, going to visit his parents, and getting an apartment when he got back, and could he pay me the last of the rent later. I said sure, just post date a check for whenever. He wrote it for September, and I forgot about it til a week or so ago. Meanwhile, he comes back from his parents, doesn't speak to me at all (and he works in the store where I shop) and I find out from one of the tellers that he came back with a wife and child. So he's been married for months and never told anyone, just showed up with a family. :P

And seriously, if he had spoken even a word to me in the last six months I would have returned his check and told him to get something nice for the baby, but I'm really into that reap/sow thing.

You better cash that check girl. What a bizarre situation. BE is SOOOOO much better for you. Any chance of seeing him today?

Holiday Hugs,

BE and I are taking a couple weeks off to remember who we are. He's also blowing off family today to go skiing. It's been a stressful month and we've been each other's comfort and neither of us want that to define us. We're doing other friends until after the new year, and then he suggested we have a 'first date' so we don't get caught in any dating ruts. :wub: :wub: He called yesterday, and I'll leave cheery message on his phone for him to hear when he comes down from the mountain today.

Just hanging out, waiting for the gluten-free brownies to cool. Then I am putting a thick peppermint icing, then cool the icing. Then a layer of melted chocolate. Am making these because M loves them when my neighbor makes them. And, since he doesn't love ham, I thought he should have something he really likes. Wuld put them on the screened porch to cool, but the squirrels are having a Xmas feast of corn, peanuts & sunflower seeds. Don't want them to think I'm serving dessert!

Good to see you here GFinDC!!! You've been missed. I meant to PM you that I won the big holiday raffle at my painting class. it was a 3 foot lighted tree (gave the tree to a pfriend who needed it so DH wouldn't strangle me with the cord). Anyway - it was decorated with supplies (tubes of paint and brushes). Just in time as my UI will run out (pfingers crossed I'll get Disability until I'm able to work). After a certain amount of classes you need to purchase your supplies. Every year the teacher finds a holiday cause and this year it was foster children. So pfor every present you brought in you got a raffle ticket. I would have brought in presents even if there wasn't a prize and in all honesty i never looked at the prize table.

Wishing you a healthy and happy New Year!

Holiday Hugs,

Loey

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated.  This includes gluten-free bread.  You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly.  Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well.  Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings.  Nightshade vegetables (eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers) are excluded.  They contain alkaloids that promote a leaky gut and inflammation.  Dairy and eggs are also eliminated.   I know it sounds really stark, but eating this way really improved my health.  The AIP diet can be low in nutrients, and, with malabsorption, it's important to supplement vitamins and minerals.

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back.  My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time.  But I passed on them. 
    • klmgarland
      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure! Thank you kitty kitty   I am going to look this diet up right away.  And read the paleo diet and really see if I can make this a better situation then it currently is.
