Hey happy Anniversary! Mine will be two years on February 5th (I think it's the 5th) Uhmm....I've gained MORE weight than you na na na na na na. :P I've gained TWO STONE (I'm watching Ab Fab right now) but I was about 1 stone underweight. I almost exploded over the holidays.

I would love to bonk you on the head :P

Angus would LOVE to chase you around and not let you get anything done. He was trying to sit on my head today during my stretches because I think he thought I was hurt :P Barking at my ballet shoes. He was freaking out.

It was....Plie

No, Angus off!

Releve, down.

Angus, no bite my nose!

Plie and up,

ANGUS, NO BARK!

Very funny!

I REFUSE TO TAKE AWAY YOUR COMPUTER cuz then I'd never "see" you!

This isn't funny so much as cute:

"Dogs Welcome"

A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned to visit on his vacation.

He wrote: I would very much like to bring my dog with me.

He is well-groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?"

An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who wrote:

"I've been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I've never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes, silverware or pictures off the walls. I've never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly. And I've never had a dog run out on a hotel bill. Yes, indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel.

And, if your dog will vouch for you, you're welcome to stay here, too." :D

:wub: I love Angus, and I've never met him. :lol: Sounds like Annie - - when doing situps or pushups or anything involving touching the floor, she licks my face and gets quite playful whilst "helping" me exercise. Very distracting but SO cute. :)

Miss Annie is getting her stinky teeth cleaned this week. Thank God, she smells like Swamp Thing.

now must get....off.........computer.........and.........work in newly created studio (the piano is gone, I must use the room now for its purpose)......... :)

Nikki - Body Pump class - heinous - :huh:

Well, must leave for work shortly, I can hardly endure these 8-hour days in the store. Abject boredom. :blink: Holy Lord I have GOT to come up with some new and important job. One with a computer at my desk. ;)

You guys have fun. I must jump in shower now and get ready for the tedium of the day. Harrumph.

Where is Richard and why is he not playing with us every day????? :huh:

:blink::(:rolleyes:

Sorry, i cannot, in good conscience, support this ban :rolleyes: Banning Speedos for men, now THAT's a movement I can support. ;)

As for my whereabouts, I am still digging out from the mess on my desk, so I can't play as much as i would like. I've also spent some of my "play" time researching a used car purchase....it's official, I'm now a soccer-mom :unsure: ...that's right I have been stripped of my manhood (JEEP) and now drive an extra-long kiddie-mover-mobile (Grand Caravan - although it is a "Sport" model...small consolation...there's nothing sporty about 3 rows of seats and room for your neighborhood in back.) I'm not sure, but i think I beep when I back up :huh: and there might even be one of those "how's my driving" stickers out back...Olivia loves it - she named it "Goldilocks" (it's gold). We bought it Saturday and picked it up last night. I doesn't even fit in my little garage...maybe i could get a bigger garage? More room for me and my tools... :huh: ...hmmm....must think this through...

I too have gained many stones since going gluten-free...about 25 lbs of stones in my pockets. I needed about 10-15. The rest is currrently residing just north of my belt buckle <_<

I've sent away for THIS. It doesn't solve the problem, but sure helps my self esteem :)

Hmmm, the minivan. Pretty rough.

You might need to go out for a sports pediicure to restore your manliness.

Our garage was built in the 1960's ... I think we could actually put four cars in it, two deep!! :P Especially since I drive a MINI (Adam wanted to replace our old van, I said save your money I won't like anything that seats 8!! So I got a MINI and still have the crummy old van).

My computer is getting the screen fixed, so I'm on the kids' computer. We always had trouble with this computer, so HP put in a new operating system. My 16 year old son was supposed to download Norton to protect the "new" computer. Well, he didn't do it entirely right and didn't seem to think it was a problem that there was a big red X indicating it wasn't working. So, two months later I find out.

I spent 6 hours working with Norton on this yesterday ... finally we discovered that the computer has 128 viruses!!!! :o He is soooo grounded from the computer, indefinately!!

Now I get to spend the day on the phone with Norton to clean up the computer, and finally get Norton installed.

There are so many viruses that our home page is written in Chinese, and if we change it, it just changes right back. :blink:

So, I'll be too busy to play today. :(:angry:

...if that's what soccer moms do...then I guess it's what I need to do :(

If only they could squeeze a HEMI under the hood...and some nice fat tires...a hood scoop might be a bit much

All false machismo aside, I actually detest Detroit's unwillingness to build eco-friendly cars...I won't get on THAT soapbox...Personally, I'd actually rather have a nice little Jetta TDI...I'm working on (more precisely - dreaming of ) a BioDiesel burning car....alas, NY has banned the sale of new diesels. This makes finding a used one nearly impossible (without driving to PA or CT).

OK soccer mom- you cannot, in good conscience, ban Speedos and wear that thing! Me thinks neither are attractive. As for what's residing north of your belt buckle, I'm sure I speak for most women that they would rather deal with a belly than a frightening undergarment!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P :P :ph34r: :ph34r:

have you seen the Cooper mini campaign that says, 'It's sad when your garages don't fit; Big cars, we feel your pain. It always cracks me up. AT LEAST IT'S NOT A HUMMER!

I want a car that smells like french fries (gluten-free of course!).

So today I ate homemade chili on my eggs (one of my all-time favorites) and then took said chili for lunch....and ran next door to Trader Joe's and bought my favorite Spicy Soy/Flax Seed tortilla chips......mindlessly ate half a bag at lunch and then afternoon break - - HALF A BAG - - :huh: then had to self-intervene and hand them over to co-worker....I can no longer tolerate flax seeds......:( and I have found out I REALLY can't tolerate flax seeds and BEANS in the same day.......... :huh: once again I"ll say it, good thing I just live with dogs...... :lol:

It is more than HEINOUS, it's SUPER HEINOUS!!! I talked to four different technicians over the WHOLE day, and they hang up before the viruses were gone. :blink: It must be because they're culture is different in India .... I mean, here they would say, let me get someone else, I don't know how to do that! There they just quit. Now it "only" has 30 viruses, and I told my son that he had to deal with them till they were all gone. Two days was enough wasted time for me ... he was the one who destroyed the computer anyway. We'll see how it goes today.

How about a job at Starbucks? I always said if I go back to work, I'll go there ... yeah, that's what I went to college for!! ;) They have health insurance for part-timers, too.

5. You

you can taste the difference between Sumatran and Ethiopian.

8. You

can't remember . . . is pot illegal?

9. A

really great parking space can totally move you to tears.

10. Gas

costs $1.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S.

11. Unlike

back home, the guy at 8:30 am at Starbucks wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses

who looks like George Clooney really IS George Clooney.

12. Your car

insurance costs as much as your house payment.

13. You

can't remember . . .is pot illegal?

14. It's

barely sprinkling rain and there's a report on every news station: "STORM

WATCH."

15. You

pass an elementary school playground and the children are all busy with

their cells or pagers.

16. It's

barely sprinkling rain outside, so you leave for work an hour early to

avoid all the weather-related accidents.

17. HEY!!!!

Is pot illegal????

18. Both

you AND your dog have therapists.

19. The

20. If

We have an old family Bible and one of my ancestors saved Queen Victoria when her horses for her carriage took off. She knighted him. He then became very rich and owned about 1000 houses in London. He emigrated to the US and when he died, the lawyers took the money. Too bad, I'd have liked to own 1000 houses in London!!! ;)

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.
