Morning, All!

Hey, Amanda!! We have another early riser with us now! Good morning, JacquIe!

Good Morning fellow sillies. Yes I'm an early riser. The four legged fur kids usually don't allow me to sleep in on a day when I don't have to get up for that 4 letter word that we all dread doing. But I do enjoy going into that 4 letter word as it is fun when you get to be your own boss :)

Amanda sorry to hear you went into work, sorry that 4 letter word that we dread going to, on what was sounding like a sure fire snow day for you. I hope traffic was not to much of a problem for you.

Well we will be going into that 4 letter word that most people dread going into early today as we are leaving our new employee on her own to open for us. I hope everyone has a very silly day :)

BTW David Beckham in a speedo. Dread the thought! :lol:

I see POeter and JacquIe have checked in :D

Mornin sillies--yes, slow AM....I feel like crapola :angry: Nothing serious, just a yucky head cold. Caught it from Mark, who brought it home from the 4 letter word. <_<:P Sore throat and achiness enough to warrent Tylenol.

Like Amanda, we had snow here overnight--2-3 inches. It's subsided for now, but more is predicted for later this afternoon along with freezing rain.

I don't think you should say size=1 and Schwing in the same sentence (TMIA? Too Much Incidental Amusement?)

:lol:

YJust one of the many times my grandpa was instrumental in my edification. I'm only now beginning to realize how thankful I am for all of the "crazy" things he wanted us to learn about and more importantly appreciate. :wub:

:) he sounds wonderful........

Hmm, no we don't currently sell penis slings in the store. :o

Well then, is this not something you should consider? I mean, you really COULD have the market cornered on this....... :P

Another quiet morning in Sillyville. Maybe everybody is just dog tired from all the excitement this week.

:ph34r: oh you have nooOOOooOOOooooOoooo idea................ :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW David Beckham in a speedo. Dread the thought! :lol:

Have to say, I rather enjoyed it. Why, though, was he, um, "slinging" his package? :lol:

Sillies I am wayyyyyyyyyyy too tired. Too much giddiness and not enough sleep.

But I'm not complainin'................... B)

Patti sorry about your evil cold and that Mark brought it to you from that VERY bad four-letter word place..... :angry:

more later.............

OMG - did anyone watch LOST last night? I did declare last night, about halfway through, that I am well and officially DONE and BROKEN UP wif dat show. I could not guarantee, however, that I wouldn't peek from time to time........but.........what in hell? :blink: I decided that it was an incredibly useless hour of my life - -- pure and utter confusion with no pleasure whatsoever any longer........... :lol:

What the heck happened to my last post? :unsure: That is one bad quote job! :P

Anyway.......I did watch Lost last night, and I actually followed it better than last week. That twist at the end with Kate was a shocker, though. I'm hanging on, but it just better be one hell of a payoff at the end. This show is work to follow :lol:

You must have needed the sleep :)

I thought you worked late yesterday so you didn't have to go in today? They just called a snow emergency in our area....the snow has stopped for now, though.

Patti!!! Stop saying four-letter words! <_<

I have a short story for you all regarding DS's walk home from school yesterday. I am now finding it, for some reason, quite amusing...

Jack's got about a half-mile to walk, so yesterday he's all bundled up...parka, snow pants, hat and mitts. He leaves the school and starts off. Suddenly, he feels his nose start to run. Takes off a mitt and wipes it--it's a nosebleed.

So, he tells me that he immediately thought about returning to the school, but then decided that this would be a bad move because he'd get blood all over the floor, and "desks, and books and stuff" (this is my pragmatic young boy)....so, he continues to walk quickly, wiping his nose. Well, it begins pouring out. So he whips his hat off and holds it there. He begins running. There is blood pouring out, all over the snow, like a large red trail. He's streaking along, blood all down his coat. Cars begin to slow down. He manages to wave and smile a little, and continue running.

WELL..........He comes in the front door. I happen to be standing there. He's got dry and wet blood ALL OVER his face, all down the front of his jacket, mitts and hat. I scream. :o:o:o

We are laughing about this now, and Jack asked that I tell you guys this story. Soon he'll be gettin' a username, I tell you......

OMGawd--the poor thing :( I felt so bad for Jack as I was reading the story--but you know....such a thoughtful, level-headed young man to think the situation through and do what he felt was best. :)

Emily--I would have screamed too if one of my boys had come home from school all bloodied! I'm sure that was quite a shock at the time. Glad he's ok and you guys got a laugh out of it :D

PS--I keep meaning to tell you how much I love your kid's names :)

I think it's the international winter 'season' for young boys to have nose bleeds :blink: ..........my 13 yr old burst in the other day hands cupped under his nose shouting ''MUM!!!!!!...NOSEBLEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!''.....dripped it everywhere whilst I shouted at him to get to the bathroom

I must admit ....my first thought was that he'd got into a fight :rolleyes: (got a real short fuse that boy!)

:unsure: - he's had several the last few days and BOY does that blood go a long way <_<

Terry has man flu ....is of course dying :rolleyes: as I try to keep him (and his germs) at arms length!!!! :lol:

OMG Nikki--Mark and I have the same cold--and you should hear him go on about it.... :P Coughing, sneezing, blowing germs all over the place (which is why I'm sick <_< ). I'm like--enough all ready.

Men can be such babies :angry:

Terry just had manflu, did he not? Absolutely, stay away from this individual.... :rolleyes:

when I first saw Jack, I thought he'd had his head run over by a tractor-trailer. Gad.....

I don't have a big flipover imminent...why sudden copious bodily fluids? :huh:

Patti! Sorry you have a coldy thing... :( Get somebody to heat you up some chicken soup on that fab new stove....

OK Susie, now that the race is over, here is the return of the av that you missed.

I also feel compelled to mention, that I was somewhat . . . what's the right word . . . relieved to see a pic of David and Annie in your av. Now we know you & David didn't pull an Emily and use the photo from a new picure frame for his personal photo in his profile.

Darn210 Enthusiast

Hey!!! :angry::angry: Is there some sort of limit on how long my av caption can be??? It kept cutting it off mid-witty-way!!!! Somebody needs to talk to Scott about all these restrictions!!!! Who does he think he is??!!!?? It's like he thinks he owns the place or sumfin'!!!! :huh::lol:

Well, now....Perhaps all these pics of my dad have been just that....out of new photo frames from Walmart. Not my dad at all, just some New-Frame-Head-Model. Mygawd....I would be SO buying those frames... :lol::lol:

Y'know, I wonder about all those discard pics I've put in those Walmart frames, of my forehead, or of the floor....who, if anyone, has bought those frames? Have they kept my pics? Maybe I'll start a revolution, where people see these frames, get what I've done, and begin to place their own crappy photos in store frames. These frame departments could become like exhibits...... :lol:

I can picture it now . . . Emily is shopping in the frame department. Over the loud speaker all the customers hear . . . Code 52 in the frame department . . . security rushes to the find Emily swapping photos . . . "Lady, how many times do we have to tell you? You can't keep comin' in here and dumpin' your lousy pictures in our new frames. The other customers won't buy the frame once you've put a picture of your toenail in it."

      Canker sores can definitely be frustrating, especially when you're already managing a strict gluten-free lifestyle and have been diagnosed with celiac disease for so long. While these painful mouth ulcers aren’t exclusive to celiac disease, they can be linked to nutritional deficiencies—particularly of iron, folate, or vitamin B12 (as @trents mentioned )—which are common in people with celiac, even those who are very careful with their diet. Ongoing fatigue and aches might also suggest that your body isn’t fully absorbing nutrients or that there’s some underlying inflammation. It could be helpful to get bloodwork done to check for these deficiencies, and possibly even a full nutritional panel. Sometimes, new sensitivities or hidden sources of gluten or additives like sodium lauryl sulfate (common in toothpaste) can trigger symptoms like canker sores too. Since your reactions are so severe and you're highly vigilant, it might also be worth considering whether any other autoimmune conditions could be involved, as they can develop over time and overlap with celiac. Consulting with your doctor or a celiac-informed dietitian may help pinpoint the cause and bring relief.

      @Dora77, You shouldn't worry about getting glutened through your skin.  You would have to touch a gluten infested doorknob and then put your hand in your mouth.   I'd be more concerned with your mom's heating up gluten bread in the oven and boiling gluten noodles.  These methods cause particles of gluten to become airborne which would then enter your nose and be swallowed, going into your digestive tract.  I have to avoid the bakery aisle at the grocery store for this reason.  An M95 mask helps. If you get nutritional deficiencies corrected, your immune system will calm down and be less reactive to gluten expose.  Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system.  Thiamine and Niacin help make digestive enzymes which would help digest any accidental gluten exposure.  Thiamine helps Mast cells not to release histamine, an inflammatory agent released as part of the reaction to gluten, and also a neurotransmitter that causes alertness and anxiety, and the flight or fight response.  Pyridoxine will help improve the OCD.  Remember your brain is part of the body.  Vitamin deficiencies affect your brain and mental health as well as the rest of your body.

      I do not have evidence other than anecdotal but I am certain when I have gotten these it's the result of eating gluten (back when I did).  I don't get them now that I don't eat gluten. 
    • Dora77
      What really bothers me is if worrying about getting cc‘d from touching the same door knob as others touched is valid. Seems like an extremely unlikely way to get glutened but i read people saying that.    If thats true then theres realistically zero chance i dont get cc‘d in a non gluten-free household unless i Cook Everything myself and wash my hands multiple times in between and store all of my stuff separately

      Welcome to the forum, @Mrs. Cedrone! Among the various causes for canker sores, are "Nutritional problems like too little vitamin B12, zinc, folic acid, or iron" https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/canker-sores Could you be deficient on something?
