Several inches of wet snow here in Ft Collins!

There are a couple places in America that do not observe it either.

Parts of Indiana.

Just wanted to say that Indiana does observe daylight savings time now (and have for the past few years). Having grown up with DST and then moving here, I will say that it was a pain-in-the-arse to NOT have daylight savings. People could never remember what time it was when they were calling you (Are we on the same time now? or are you earlier than us now?). The flight schedules changed (I used to travel frequently for work). Phone conferences were always messed up. I, personally, was thankful when they switched over. I didn't really care about the time change thing as much as I cared about being different than the rest of the country. I will say, it's still a sore subject with a lot of people here.

I used to have infrequent correspondence with a dude from Indiana who was always so PROUD that they did not conform to the ridiculousness of DST. :D

I will soon be going from quite short days to quite looong days - takes the body a while to adjust :blink:

SO I had a dream last night that I was a spy and my assignment required me to eat gluten. Yeah. I need a hobby.....

My kids are going through job appitude testing.

I remembered my testing appitude said I should be a professional athlete, hairdresser, spy. I have collected a paycheck, been licensed and insured for the first 2 carrers of the list. I just haven't been paid for my spy technique.

My son's test results... a magician, solar energy technition, and electrical engineer. (he can't be an electrical engineer ~ he's red green color blind.)

Good luck with that storm. It looks like a huge monster that may even affect Michigan.

I want a massive blizzard this year <_< we're long over due and we neeeeeed it badly. Big enough to knock out DIA for several days.

That one year (06 i believe) we had 3 ft come down in a day :blink: Originally it was only supposed to be a few inches. Of course, believing them, we let it pile up. NEVER AGAIN! That was when we only had cruddy ancient shovels. We had to go out and get new ones (eventually found some in an Ace hardware store). That year we had 8ft high piles of snow on one side of the drive. After that we got a snow blower.

This was the same storm that knocked DIA out for two days. And of course, after it, we constantly got pounded every weekend well into march.

Are they really calling it that?? . . . hope they are . . . and good luck to all youse in the path. Friend of mine was telling me she was emailing her 25-year old son (to her husband's dismay)with a list of supplies that he needs to have on hand and other recommendations (where to park the car, cooking, etc). Hey, that's what a good mom does!!!

Dulles International Airport??

My guess is Denver.

Snow in October - YAY!!!

:D :D :D :D :D

of course we don't live in the stuff...just love when there is enough to slide down and provide much needed snowpack / future water to those of us that have to pay heavily for this scarce resource.

**** Let it snow ****

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10). Since then it has gone up to 10. I am not happy with that. I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I...

      Low iron and vitamin d

She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks...

I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
