Happy New Year, other side of the world!

On my side of the world, we are trying to get in all the weather types possible before midnight. Warm (60F), tornados, thunderstorms, heavy winds and ice turning to a little snow. My neighborhood is in the icy stage moving towards the snow stage.

Kansas always does like to go to extremes with its weather - the only weather they don't do well is balmy ocean breezes :rolleyes:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I think I have pink eye <_< But I'm not pregnant, so that's a bonus to the day :D:lol:

Rabbits! Why did I think of rabbits?? Oh yeah, they have (or get) pink eye, and "the rabbit didn't die" :P Good news for you and the rabbit!

. . . and a Happy New Year to Shroom!!! . . . the rest of youse guys have to wait a bit longer!!

Shroomie, we had an earthquake here yesterday . . . of course we missed it as we were still at my Dad's house . . . made me think of you.

We had one last night and I missed it too - thought it was New Year party raucousness <_< But t'was only a 3.7, so could be mistaken for a gust of wind. Now on Boxing Day we had another good one, right under the CBD and only about 5 km deep - that one really shook the place up again at a 4.9; more parapets fell, more buildings condemned, everything had to be reinspected, more places cordoned off, even our earthquake proofed cathedral suffered some minor damage and they removed the big cross for safety purposes. Nonetheless, New Year's official celebrations were held in Cathedral Square last night as usual, using the slogan "We are strong, We are survivors, We are Canterbury!" (name of our province).

Hub had the same experience as I did 10 years ago with the Loma Prieta quake - totally didn't feel it and he was right downtown too, except he was in his car amongst frenzied would-be shoppers, when the woman in front of him jumped out of her car and went running in a panic, arms waving frantically in the air. He wondered what was up with this crazy woman, for whom this was obviously one earthquake too many :blink::huh::unsure:

Meanwhile, my housesitter lady went on vacation up north and got caught in a phlash phlood (or drove into too-deep running water or something) and got swept 100 metres down the road, ended up in a ditch, she and her phriend kneeling on their seats with water above their waists - they made it out safely but her Rav4 didn't :( Now she has been stranded up there with phlooded roads, washed out bridges, highways blocked by slips, and trying to get her insurance to come through with a new car payment. The tenting holidaymakers didn't fare too well either :lol: The Gods seem to be having a bit of a go at us Down Under pholks, but the poor Queenslalnders in Oz are getting the worst of it :unsure:

Anyways, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! to all psillies. May the force be with you!

Cutting it close, every symptom, getting skeert :unsure: Turns out, I think all the sugar and crap I've been eating the past 2 weeks just magnified all the PMS symptoms, which for me are all the beginning signs of being preggo. AND, after the hub's snip-snip last spring, he never went back in to make sure he's shootin blanks. He say's "I'm sure it's fine" to the most fertile woman alive :rolleyes:

BTW, where do you live Shroomie? I've been getting really confused and would love us to start posting continents. I just ate dinner because I decided carrying a bag of veggies would draw too much attention to me and I'm meeting my neighbors for the firs time. I haven't been to a New Year's Party sine Y2K. Clark and I love to stay at home all cozy and snugggly but really do need to meet our neighbors. Party is at 8 and it's 6 here so I'm procrastinating. We're walking to the party and it's uphill so I'm a little concerned about walking downhill after imbibing. Maybe Clark will get the car and drive a block and a half so I don't start the New year with bruises.

Wishing all my psilles a HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR. I'd be lost without you!

Hugs,

Loey Lane.

The follow up is no big deal (been there, done that). You provide a sample to be tested. You could make it a condition: No checkup, no nookie. :huh:

And, he won't go blind from giving the sample. :ph34r:

I still like my idea of all the psilles taking turns raising the child. Imagine how he/she would turn out (and Kareeng second time around I wouldn't be a pushover!!!)

Loey laugh.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif

Still procrastinating about getting ready for the party. Believe it or not I get shy when I meet new people (not that you could tell from here). At least I showered and blew my hair dry. Now for the curling, make-up and oh yes, the clothes. I don't think Clark is wearing his cape.

Hoppy Gnu Year Again and thanks for making my dealing with all my illnesses a LOT easier. You are all the best!!!!

I hope Lo & Clark remembered the clothes before heading to the party. The surprise on the face of host's teen age boy or girl who is taking guest's coats! Or the rude comments and hysterical laughter if it were my boys.

Staying in where it is warm. The 62 from yesterday has turned to a wind chill of 0.

Happy New Year!

We remembered the clothes (I actually got dressed up). Before we left Clark asked if we were going to be bored. Well we were actually the last to leave. We have lovely neighbors and the hostess looked up Celiac and had a shrimp and scallop platter that she kept away from everyone else. I enjoyed my wine. I have pain today but it was worth it and actually I've had pain since September so I don't think it was from the party.

I think we'll keep Clark's identity a secret.

Kareeenng- I can't thank you enough for bringing me to the psilles. Have a happy and healthy New Year!

Hugs,

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      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...

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      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!

      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.
