Multiquoted all y'alls and LOST EM ALL!!! I am sooooo super late, but

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!

The charger to our computer crapped out, so I've been wifout since Friday. I hope everyone had a most wonderful holiday! We went to my grandma's (dad's side) house on Friday which is always a drunken blast and then had Christmas day at our house with my mom's family. I'd eaten nuthin but crap for about 4 days, felt bloated and enormous and do you know what my DH bought me?! SATIN leggins..... :blink: Now, I am a firm believer that unless you're a size 2, satin should only be a trim piece on clothing. NOT covering yer arse! He was so excited about this outfit and really wanted me to try them on toot sweet :ph34r: Oh I tried them on all right... Then I cried.... Then I went down to breakfast and ate 2 cinnamon rolls :rolleyes:

I decided to start my New Years BS resolution yesterday, stepped on the scale, cried again, then juiced all day and dance for an hour with Madeleine and Max last night on the Wii. I feel much better today! Then DH asked if I'd go on a date wif him tonight, cuz he's really craving Mexican food....GAH!!!!! :rolleyes:

Whatchy'all doin for New Years?

We will stay home for New Years. Thinking of making lasagna. J has a party not far away. The parents of the party are the most over- protective, smothering parents. :)

New Years Eve we'll probably stay home and fall asleep.....

New Years Day, hopefully, we'll have our family Christmas dinner here postponed from last Sunday.

*sigh* Failing again at apart time. BE wants to do something New Year's eve. I may have to go back to Spain to keep away from him.

Do you want to keep away from him? Otherwise go to Spain with him!!!! It can be quite romantic. That's where I told Clark I was pregnant and he proposed. I did the whole nine yards backwards. Honeymoon, pregnancy, proposal and wedding. This is just a suggestion from a loyal, friendly voyeur! Not the honeymoon, pregnancy, proposal, and wedding- just the romance and not even Spain - just skipping the apart time unless you need it.

Hugs,

Loey

P.S. I thought the alone time was BE's idea. Clark did that when we were dating but it didn't even last a day.

Maybe you shouldn't have apart time then. If you can't stay away from each other, then don't :D

Hub and I tried this 110 years ago when dating but found we really didn't want to be apart.

Loey Rising Star

There are hundreds of birds in the trees out back! They are so noisy, I can hear them in e house, over the noise of the wash machine & TV! Anyone remember Alfred Hitchcock? :(

Every time I go to my painting class there are an enormous amount of birds on the telephone lines. Then I come out two and a half hours later to find they all crapped on my car so badly I have to take it to the car wash that day it dries. And their crap is red. Are they drinking blood? It adds $10 to the cost of my class each week. AAAARRRGGGGHHHH!!! mad.gifmad.gifmad.gifmad.gif

Ok maybe only 72.

You need a joke:

Trevor's New Year's Eve party was an annual occurrence with numerous guests arriving.

It depends what he wants to do :ph34r: I thought apart time could involve "seeing" each other in public places - although that hasn't worked very well in restaurants in the past :P ; you do have to actually carry through with your intentions!

We did this too. Actually, I said I didn't want to be with someone who was drunk all the time and who wanted to mess around with other girls. I wished him well and tried to move on.... He came crawling back to me in no time, sober and monogamous :D

Sometimes they just need to realize what they could lose. :P

Since both BE and I commute, the only time we could really go out is Saturday. Fridays he's not home until 8:30, which is late for me. I suppose dinner in Seattle would work, but he'd still have to drop me off at home, and then leave..... :ph34r::P :P Dunno. Have to think about this. Once the weather improves we can do weekend hikes n' stuff. Not such a fun prospect this time of year though.

And his friends told him if he hurt me, they'd kick his A$$! Loved his friends :)

Maybe I missed it-was if you who wanted some space or him?

Jestgar Rising Star

I wanted space. It was getting a bit overwhelming with school and work and theater and application for school and late nights and early mornings and lonely cats and so on and so forth. I also felt like all we ever did was have sex, which isn't a bad thing :P , but it would be nice to play too.

Gotcha. Smart woman, if you didn't know that already ;)

      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.
