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!!!

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 ****

      Living with celiac disease can be especially hard when you’re in a smaller town and don’t have many people around who truly understand it, so you’re definitely not alone in feeling this way. Ongoing fatigue, joint pain, and headaches are unfortunately common in people with celiac disease, even years after diagnosis, and they aren’t always caused by gluten exposure alone. Many people find that issues like low iron, low vitamin D, thyroid problems, other autoimmune conditions, or lingering inflammation can contribute to that deep exhaustion, so it’s reasonable to push your doctor for more thorough blood work beyond just vitamin B. As for eggs, it’s also not unusual for people with celiac disease to develop additional food intolerances over time; tolerating eggs as an ingredient but not on their own can point to sensitivity to the proteins when they’re concentrated. Some people do better avoiding eggs for a while, then carefully testing them again later. Most importantly, trust your body—if something consistently makes you feel awful, it’s okay to avoid it even if it’s technically “allowed.” Many of us have had to advocate hard for ourselves medically, and connecting with other people with celiac disease, even online, can make a huge difference in feeling supported and less isolated.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Cecile! It is common for those with celiac disease to develop sensitivity/intolerance to non-gluten containing foods. There is a high incidence of this with particularly with regard to dairy products and oats but soy, eggs and corn are also fairy common offenders. Like you eggs give me problems depending on how they are cooked. I don't do well with them when fried or scrambled but they don't give me an issue when included in baked and cooked food dishes or when poached. I have done some research on this strange phenomenon and it seems that when eggs are cooked with water, there is a hydrolysis process that occurs which alters the egg protein such that it does not trigger the sensitivity/intolerance reaction. Same thing happens when eggs are included in baked goods or other cooked dishes since those recipes provide moisture.  So, let me encourage you to try poaching your eggs when you have them for breakfast. You can buy inexpensive egg poacher devices that make this easy in the microwave. For instance:  https://www.amazon.com/Poacher-Microwave-Nonstick-Specialty-Cookware/dp/B0D72VLFJR/ Crack the eggs into the cups of the poacher and then "spritz" some water on top of them after getting your fingers wet under the faucet. About 1/4 teaspoon on each side seems to work. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top and then snap the poacher shut. I find that with a 1000 watt microwave, cooking for about 2 minutes or slightly more is about right. I give them about 130 seconds. Fatigue and joint pain are well-established health problems related to celiac disease.  Are you diligent to eat gluten-free? Have you been checked recently for vitamin and mineral deficiencies? Especially iron stores, B12 and D3. Have you had your thyroid enzyme levels checked? Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements? If not, you probably should be. Celiac disease is also a nutrient deficiency disease because it reduces the efficiency of nutrient absorption by the small bowel. We routinely recommend celiacs to supplement with a high potency B-complex vitamin, D3, Magnesium glycinate (the "glycinate" is important) and Zinc. Make sure all supplements are gluten-free. Finally, don't rule out other medical problems that may or may be associated with your celiac disease. We celiacs often focus on our celaic disease and assume it is the reason for all other ailments and it may not be. What about chronic fatigue syndrome for instance?
