long story short........

Dingy is

VINDICATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:P

I know this is terribly petty and mean-spirited........but now, even though I was a crazy-ass gluten brain, I seem to have some credibility (there were other things said that indicated this).............

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I am out of my mind with some small gleeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

As if we all wouldn't hope for this sort of outcome for the obnoxious people in our lives.

My first ex came back begging me for forgiveness, and I said, um, no. And then did the dance that Susie's probably doing now.

Every once in a while the world turns appropriately :)

Capital idea!!!!

Murphy's Ridge--or BUST!!!!!!! :D

Onward!

That's the spirit!! I can feel the excitement building....

Then count me amonst the wicked, but this whole post made me smile with joy! It even brought me out of lurkdom for the ocassion! :P

I'm smiling, too, Susie. The world has indeed turned appropriately. Maybe this guy will end up with...what was her name....Something Burton, the little creature who tattled on you about stealing. :lol:

Well, spoke to my bro last night. He is coming to visit Dec. 26th, with his son, son's girlfriend, and his own....NEW...GIRLFRIEND...! What is this? He is single and lonely ever since his divorce, and I find him his perfect match (mind you, a million miles away), at the same time that he's FOUND someone. Gad.....So, Susie, I'll get a good read on her while they're here, and report. Harrrrummmph.

<checking betting pool> . .. . Who had 5hrs 48min???

Trust me.....Robert, who is busy running his Empire, would never, in a million years, even if he were the most sick Celiac on the planet - check this forum. ;)

Fifteen-day visit, seven of which will be spent here.

Now, she is an undiagnosed, denying celiac, so if by chance she is deciding at this moment to finally do some reading on the subject, and stumbles upon this board, and exclaims, "My heavens!", ...imagine a very refined, Northumberland accent..."Elye....that just may be Emily! Now what does she have to say in her little messages?", I shall leave things at that for now.

Gaaaaaaaahhhhhh....

North Umberland......where is that? She sounds so.......exotic!!! Is she bringing any Yeti scat?

Then count me amonst the wicked, but this whole post made me smile with joy! It even brought me out of lurkdom for the ocassion! :P

DONNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Donna will remember all of the pathetic Robert posts made by Yours Truly. And.....focusing our energies to make for what proved to be the Bulldogs' WORST LOSING SEASON in something like 75 years. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Every once in a while the world turns appropriately :)

:P Yes, yes it does......I do feel sorry for the new Mrs. Robert as I have truly experienced the force of that daughter's power and wrath....... :huh: Never, in my entire life, have I met such a wretched and unlikeable girl......it was astonishing.

My boyfriend has a girlfriend?????????? oh this is BOLLOCKS!!!!!!!!!!! Emily.....this calls for drastic measures. hmmmmmmmmmm......I will ponder what to do. Something requiring your MIL's Yeti scat, methinks, adn a magic spell.

;)

Patti said CAPITAL IDEA again and it's always good for a chuckle. :lol:

Empire?.....

Is this Robert Bigelow?

Right on the English/Scottish border (right, Nikki?)...I can feel her getting closer as the day wears on... <_<

But yes, perhaps she can be made useful. if she's brought some magical poop with her, and if I can get some incantations out of her that she has picked up from the First Nations people she knows, I may be able to rid the competition for you, Susie...

You've been a project in the past, Susie?.... :lol::rolleyes:

Oh yes, Emily--we've tried the "fix up" with Susie before :D

Has anyone heard from Tom or Andrea yet? Yep--I know I'm nosey :lol:

You know there's always is my dad! :lol: I'm always hoping he can find someone nice. He's a tad on the stoic side but a GREAT cook. And I can vouch for his children NOT being heinous.

Today I was at my Grandpa's and there was a bat in his apartment! Now, I consider myself to be pretty brave and not too much of a girly-girl but honestly I was screaming bloody murder. It was hysterically freaky. I hid in the kitchen while my grandpa went after it with a broom. For a second it was making a B-line right for me and I dove out of the way screaming the whole time! It eventually flew out the patio door. If anyone has ever seen the episode of The Office in which there was a bat in the office, it was pretty much the same thing -- chaos, screaming, and diving out of the way. I don' t know what it is about bats but they make people lose their minds. I don't think this sounds very funny to explain it but it was hilarious if you were there!

:lol: that sentence cracked me up! Bats DO make people LOSE THEIR MINDS!!!!!!! and BTW - it actually does sound funny.

OMG - I had an (out-of-body?) experience with some over-the-counter sleeping pills my mom gave me when I was little, at the cabin, adn COVERED in poison oak. I, um, hallucinated all night long, saw/felt/heard swarms of bats EVERYWHERE - and........of course, there were none. :ph34r:

To this day even the thought of bats really could make me lose my mind!!!!!!!!!!!

Halloooooooooooooooooo everyone...............

OMG - I am SO not ready for Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

Yes, I have some disturbing memories involving bats. A number of years ago, my DH squished a bat with my tennis racket.

Merry Christmas to you too! Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to everyone!!

Actually, we think bats are pretty cool in this household. Might change my mind if one was in my house. I took the kids to a talk on bats with a bat expert (he had been on Ellen) and he had 4 bats with him. Cool stuff. He had some equipment so that we could hear the bats using their echolocation.

We are due to leave for Virginia in less than 36 hours. Beside the fact that I'm outrageously behind in my preperations . . . My son just threw up. Merry Christmas to me! My daughter had it last week. It's been floating around the school. A 24 hour thing. Hopefully, neither me or hubby will get it and we can continue on as planned. Always something!

Patti, the cookies taste great. I might try a little higher butter ratio next time or maybe just a tad bit less flour. The dough handled great and I think it would have whether it had been refridgerated on not. They did not spread at all and are a tad bit crumbly - not bad - but it's hard to sneak a cookie 'cause I'm leaving evidence. ;)

Emily, yes, you and Gus make a dapper pair! Soooo, do you really have kids? You've been known to . . . er . . . um . . . make things up?

'Twas. It was crunched up in the corner where the wall meets the ceiling in our bedroom. I still remember the noise when the sweet spot of my racket met that little body...eeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwww....

...Or the noise of me screaming...

Susie: Someone in our midst has suggested setting you up with their father. :o:o

Well, Janet, you are approaching post 900. A small vomit is often the preamble to the large onslaught of 1000... :rolleyes:

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Tell me about it. My children, the truly camera-shy. Have no interest in posing in any shots. Even dragging them to family portrait appointments we are, literally, dragging them. Will have to sneak up on them and get a candid shot to post. Gus is always obliviously willing...

I'm still alive and well, visiting Sillyville. I'm trying to keep up, but am skimming through the posts and may not pick up everything. I'm glad to hear the Yeti is doing well in the Pacific Northwest. If you send him up into the Cascades it may feel just like home to him.

I'll be back before then, I'm sure, but I want to wish everyone here in Sillyville a wonderful Christmas if you celebrate it. If not, may the good will of the holiday season be yours.

I hope all of us, and those dear to us, have a healthy and prosperous year in 2008.

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!
    • klmgarland
      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!
    • knitty kitty
      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
