Only 3 days till the wedding....I am off the next two days hoping to get everything done....

OMG! Well, we had just BETTER not see you on here, missy, or we'll send the corn-stalk-wielding Bev your way (she's closer than my neighborhood shuffler)..... :P

Janet, how on earth can you precisely recall when you joined this madness?!...or muster the energy to look it up? Gad, I'm lucky if I can remember when I last ate... :rolleyes:

Remember, Janet is gooder with NUMBERS. ;)

Well, of course I remember that life altering day when I joined this thread . . . :lol::lol: No, at some point I just remembered that when we got to 300 I would have been around for half the time - then went back to find out exactly - that would be the detail orientatednous in me.

It has nothing to do with gluten and everything to do with quantity. Oh, did I tell you all that starting tomorrow, I'm going on a diet? I want to loose 25 pounds before I meet Bev when I visit my friend in Boxford on spring break. OK - don't know for sure on that last part, but we are working on it - I've got a kennel so we're going somewhere!

Right now we are trying to figure out a seating chart for the reception...I would rather be anywhere but here. I am at my wits end.

I have an insatiable appetite that I never had before removing gluten. WTH is with that?????????? Makes me FURIOUS............. :angry:

That's what you call Festival Seating . . . and it does sound like a festival . . . however, that did cause problems for The Who!! OK - so Amanda, don't sit me with the Olsen twins or that freaky Cat Women lady or the Hoff - he should get his own table - nobody should have to sit with him.

OK, I have a 6 year old daughter so I know what a Cheetah Girl is? What I want to know is why you want to know what a Cheetah Girl is?

Poopy Cow!! Look at the time . . . I gotta go to bed! Night Sillies! :P-_-

We also needed the green guy emoticon tonight!!! One of my children barfed about a half liter of chocolate vomit-- and that was before we went trick-or-treating. I am a BAD mother. :ph34r: But then he felt much better. Fun was had by all today!

Good morning, all my chocolate-filled friends!

Ugh. Man, I'm off to the gym. (GREEN GUY HERE!...TWICE! NO, THRICE!)

I am getting ready to start a load of laundry and start cleaning. Anyone want to help?

Darn210 Enthusiast

Oh, Oh, Oh, Where's Nikkie? It's the 1st. It's time for slappin' and kickin' and stuff!! Where's my little brother when I need him?

Susie, you MUST change your avatar!!! The newbies are going to think that's what you look like and be frightened away!!!

Amanda!!!! If I wanted to clean and do laundry, I have plenty of that to do here!!! You might have better luck with Patti, at least with the laundry part.

Candy hangover here . . . must go have a "hair of the dog" baby ruth.

Happy November Fool's Day!

I'd say Patti is your best bet for help w/ laundry - and only 2 hrs away! Why, she could come to your house and do it for you! When she's done there she can stop over at my house (her unpacking can wait ;) ) I'll make peanut blossoms, and I'll even share my stash of Mike 'n Ikes with her...(That's candy, NOT people chained up in my basement).

I've got nuthin' today. I'm sort of depressed since RG passed...a little lonely perhaps...as much of a pest that he could be I sort of enjoyed the Kato -v- Clouseau thing we had going on...

I thought you might be taking it kind of hard. I knew he was a special friend. Give yourself some time, enjoy your memories, but leave yourself open to finding and establishing new friends . . . I read in an article that Wayne Newton was a good friend of RG's. Maybe you two could spend some time together, I'm sure he's in mourning also and could use a hug.

Gotta go . . . I actually have a paying gig this morning.

Richard I was thinking about you last Friday. My mom and I were in Johnson City shopping for a few things.

...ah, yes...I fear a trip to Vestal is in the near future...Perhaps i can convince the wife to drop me at the hobby shop whilst she tries on every pair of shoes within the city limits :o

There's nothing quie a frustrating for a male as waiting for the alpha female to finish in the dressing room. ESPECIALLY if there is not a comfy chair in the vicinity. UGH!

Ah-HA! THAT's IT! Susie's zombie man - he must have been subjected to the dressing room treatment and tried to commit Hara-kiri on his pocket knife. His attempt obviously failed, and now his wife refuses to take him with her when she shops - in the afternoon. After she leaves the house he wanders the streets in search of male companionship - someone to drink a beer and watch ultimate fighting with...alas the wife has taken all but his hospital scrubs from him, so he is doomed to wander about as a freak with little hope of being befriended...Susan, maybe you could leave a note (in sidewalk chalk) directing him to your bush-barfing neighbors house for a little companionship? :unsure: It's really the only humane thing to do :huh:

Hi Meredith . . . I'm going to assume that's your name since Susie called you that and you didn't correct her . . . of course you don't want to make Susie angry . . . don't disagree with Susie . . . Oh, no, wait that's Bev. She's the one that will come after you with a cornstalk!! Of course, who knows what that poor man did to Susie and now he walks around the neighborhood with no shirt and an abdominal wound.

Oh no.........SusieQ's Iroquois skull crusher is MUCH more dangerous than my wimpy cornstalk!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking of Susie.......HIDEOUS avatar :ph34r: :ph34r:

Well, ahem, Meredith/Mango goes WAY back, to the crazy days of Rachelville. Um, BTW that is really where all the craziness started.......Richard moved our town to here - where we NEVER get in trouble any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAH-VOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen on that town move!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mango/Meredith can run with the best of us! MO HOO AHHH HAA HAA!!!!!

Alex- most excellent top five reasons. And YES- I DID have Reese's peanut butter cups for dinner last night (well, I had risotto too) :D

I want to loose 25 pounds before I meet Bev when I visit my friend in Boxford on spring break. OK - don't know for sure on that last part, but we are working on it - I've got a kennel so we're going somewhere!

Wait- WHAT???????????????? Yes, come visit!!!!! BIG PARTY WE SHALL HAVE!!!!!!

Oh Sarah- Chocolate barf????????? POOPY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Candy hangover here . . . must go have a "hair of the dog" baby ruth.

RICHARD?RICHARD? Is that REALLY you in the avatar??????? My God- he shows his face. There will be manic panic as everyone rushes to gaze upon our king!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amanda- I am so EXCITED for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:

OMG!!!!

I'm back from being plunged into an :unsure: internetLESS abyss.......It was awful and I don't want to talk about it.....

SOOOO (A little tardy)

Pinch, punch, first day of the month!!!!!!

SO much has happened.....RG has passed away :( (he's the one WITH the glasses right Richard?? :unsure::lol: )

Bev + Emily are dirty scorpions :lol: (who's suprised???...not I!!)

Susie's nekkid coeliac/gunshot wound wandering man intrigues moi. Perhaps he shot himself in the gut...not realising the 'cure' is diet :huh::lol:

Got meself some NEW friends :D (you know who you are!)

AND!! (surely not)

2 DAYS UNTIL THE WEDDING?!?!?! :o:o:o:o

Pull your finger out people !!! ...there's much to be done .......back to braiding the Yeti........

elye Community Regular

Oh....so...that isn't Susie in her avatar?

Speaking of avatars--I'm always so amused at how completely inaccurate my mental picture is of a person when I've never seen them. Richard, you are NOTHING like I pictured you. I've been seeing a big guy (like, linebacker-type), fair hair, regular features, perhaps a beard now that I think of it...I'm always way off. I pictured our World Vision sponsored child (from Bolivia, eight year-old boy) as little, skinny, olive skin, black longish hair. We finally got a pic of him. Heavy, light hair and skin...looks fairly affluent, actually. :huh: Hmmmmmm...

good morning and Pinch Punch slaps to you all................... :P

avatar changed. Limping Weasel. harrumph. I hate our vet, BTW, gotta find a new one (the surgery - totally unnecessary and in fact you CAN do a needle asprirate or biopsy on tumoUrs/lumps JUST AS I THOUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

oops - so sorry to start off the first day of the month w/ free-flowing rage. :ph34r:

Janet - a candy hangover. OMG. I ahve an ersatz blue-coloUred ice cream hangover. ugh. It was really hard to hand out the ice cream, so I just ate it. :huh:

RICHARD! We are so sorry for your loss. Sending Wayne Newton STAT - he's coming right after the phuneral.

and THERE you are in your AV! methinks he looks like.....Joey Fatone? someone? I can't QUITE put my finger on it......................

:o RICHARD - you may be ONTO somethign.......

I'll get the sidewalk chalk out tout suite - - direct him to barfing neighboUr - I think they in fact live on same street.....BRILLIANT idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But I do think Nikki's theory, the stabbing of his own gut, not quite realizing that treatment for cOeliac is removal of gluten, instead of the stabbing of one's own spleen......is actually the CORRECT answer. :lol: Nevertheless, I'll direct him to my vomitous friend's house anyway. ;)

BEVVY - did you crumble up the Reese's IN the risotto? :lol:

OMG!!!!

I'm back from being plunged into an internetLESS abyss.......It was awful and I don't want to talk about it.....

NICOLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome back! don't worry, we will hold you, we know you were scared.............................

OMG look what showed up on my MSN page this morning:

Open Original Shared Link

EEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (insert green emoticon)

So I guess LANCE is now coming to our wedding parade bacchanalia. But then....who will Yeti have for his date? :huh:

So I read the head line and thought Eeewwww . . . and then got three lines in and they actually say in the artical:

(Go on, say it, we'll wait: Ew.)

So I guess it's a universal response.

The yeti can go with Mary Kate . . . she just needs to borrow Ashley's hairy coat.

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      I have osteoporosis and have crushed three vertebrae.  I supplement with Lysine, Tryptophan, threonine, calcium, Boron, Vitamins D, A, and K, and the B vitamins (folate, B12, and Thiamine B1 especially for bone health).   I tried Fosomax, but it tore up my insides.  I prefer the supplements.  I feel better and my bones feel stronger.   References: A composite protein enriched with threonine, lysine, and tryptophan improves osteoporosis by modulating the composition and metabolism of the gut microbiota https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41915427/

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!
