I know... . .I am still thinking of J. Competition can get so heated at this age, regardless of the activity, that it can bring great big teenage boys to tears. :(

I guess I didn't explain it well. It isn't that he lost. That's disappointing. he played on a football team that didn't win but as long as he did his best, he was happy. This is more the realization that something he has given his heart, soul, & a lot of free time to, is over. This has been his passion for 6 years. He had hoped to win so he could have 1 more competition. As oneof the kids pointed out, they build bigger and better things in engineering school.

I believe hockey is one of the few times a girl likes to be called "The Wall"

Well, The Wall is finished her tournaments.

It was such an incredibly exciting game, and Sudbury was a team of big and very aggressive girls..... . . ...we were way out of our league, actually, but we were TIED 0-0 (Sophie faced 20 shots, the other goalie 4) until the dying seconds of the final period, when Soph saved a tough shot off her glove and the rebound was whipped up, like ligfhtning, over her shoulder. Into the net. I looked at the clock -- 3 seconds remaining.

That was it.

What a way to lose! But Sophie got MVP. A great way to end things....and I don't have to head out to YET another game tonight.:rolleyes:

Okay, now on to baseball.....training camp for Jack is in two weeks. . .. ...

So I accidently flashed a guy at the park yesterday :unsure: Max was showing me some yoga moves he learned and I asked him if he could do the dancer pose. He asked me to show him. Welllllll, when I leaned forward, I kinda lost my right side outta my top. Couldn't figure out why this hottie was watching us so intently... Then I stood up and caught a but of a breeze across the chest. Oops! I was laughing so hard! Thank goodness it was time to leave, we hightailed it to the car and got outta there!

Dear GAWD Raechulle?! ....yer (passion fruit! tongue.gif) jam was butter??? unsure.gif

Would you still put it on toast?? *confused*

It's not really butter. It's hard to explain... Have you ever had apple or pumpkin butter in autumn? It's a big thing here. It's a fruit spread, but creamier, like butter, no seeds like jam, not gelatious like jelly. But it's basically a fruit/sugar puree I guess. It is heaven :)

Gawd, some severe dating of meselph, here.. . . . there has only been one movie that absolutely terrified me as a child: When I was about four, my sister and her boyfriend let me come along to the drive-in to se (the original -- probably 1970) Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

Hate, hate HATE that movie. Reminded me of a creepy pedophile. :unsure:

I turned on every single light in and around my house last evening during Earth Hour.

:lol::lol:

Warning: very unpsilly stuff ahead!

We were eliminated. Our robot did OK but not as well as it should have in the last rounds. That's probably the hardest part for J to take- his last robotics match and he didn't do his best. Glad hub was here, I couldn't talk to J without crying. It's really hard to see your big strong son in tears. The 2 girls on the team he has known the longest were looking at him helplessly. I'll try to be silly later.

Well, The Wall is finished her tournaments.

Congrats to the girls! AND the boys!! K, I know how disappointing it is for them, but they came so far!! I hope they're proud of what they accomplished :)

Hi My Dear Psillies,

Finally got through most of my testing. Think I mentioned I'm in the watch and wait stage of the CLL. Back is a major issue (scoliosis and curvature) plus rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis (in addition to Celiac),

I'm writing to let you knpw I'll be offline until the weekend My son is coming home to look for a summer job and is bringing two friends (who date each other) They'll be staying in my study (hip parents are letting them stay together). I did want to share this hysterical poem with you that I had my PCP make me a photocopy of:.

I'll miss you all but be back by Sunday.

Good job Loey! You made a chinchilla laugh.

I actually looked up chinchilla rescue today. I always wanted one. I think it might not like my dog. My dog would like to be friends.

LIked how he was hiding out in the Ozarks. I've been to that bar.

You know.. chinchillas are amazingly brave. If you are sure your dogs won't do the 'bite shake' thing, they might really enjoy each other. Chilli is very social and I think he would love a puppy if we could do it...but we can't get a dog. (sigh.. :rolleyes: someday, I hope) If you rescue one, try to get one that is young or very people trusting. If they are too old and half wild they are more nervous and it takes a lot longer to get them people friendly(which isn't that good for introducing dog friends too... but by all means, all chinchillas are cute). They are so neat!

My silly lab has finally given up, after 2 years, making friends with the squirrels. He would walk out, nose down, tail wagging. The rude creatures would run away.

And then, apparently, plaster 'em with paintballs. Or does she have her minions do that? I'm unclear on the medieval rules of the road.

That has got to be one of the most exciting, edge-of-yer seat, exhilarating spectator sports I have ever been privy to.

      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!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?
    • Scott Adams
      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.
