I don't know about anybody else, but I don't leave my balls unprotected out in the yard where children can grab them. :ph34r:

Thank Gawd.......I am so relieved to hear that our Great Monarch is protecting his balls when out in Royal Walkabouts...

Morning Sillies....a very big day at work. I have a big meeting with Merck about a new trial we are getting.....very very scary too! I am nervous!!! Wont be too much time for silly vortex today. Sadly.

Good Mornin', Sillies!

Don't think we officially had any frost last night, although it was close. . ..my plants should be okay. Our lovely old chestnut tree has bloomed fully - - its broad, fat leaves that canopy half our yard look wonderful.

Mr. Chow was out at exactly 6 am, stretching to greet the sun.

All is good.

Speaking of Chows, for I believe the first time I bumped into, and chatted with, Mrs. Chow last evening while out with the dogs. I was careful not to so obviously stare at her tongue.. . but like her husband, hers is pink also. She looks to be about a hundred, and with a face SO infinitely draw-able. I see an aged, ravaged face such as hers and all I want to do is capture it on paper. I sense that she feels I'm quite odd, and therefore I will not ask her to pose for a portrait. Although I could tell her that she may end up in a Walmart frame.. ..that always sways 'em..... :lol:

Ok- am so tired today that I am giddy (my mom used to call it overtired- then again, she always called a sunburn a wind burn. I'd go to the beach when it was 90 degrees out and come home and it was STILL a windburn. But I digress!)

Found EVERY posy hysterically funny this a.m.

Aren't we allowed to quote what we thought we saw? :rolleyes:

Jess- You just wait!!!!!!!!!!! Revenge is a dish best served SILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

You guys won't believe this- at 76, Uncle Ray has crabs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A man boarded an airplane in Baltimore Maryland , with a box of crabs.

A female crew member took the box and promised to put it in the crew's refrigerator, which she did.

The man advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for the crabs staying frozen, and proceeded to rant and rave about what would happen if she let the crabs thaw out.

Of course this irritated the flight attendant and she told the passenger not to worry.

Shortly before landing in Atlanta she announced to the entire cabin, "Would the gentleman who gave me the crabs in Baltimore , please raise your hand?"

Not one hand went up ..... so she took them home and ate them herself!

I like stories with happy endings.

Just got back--very good Chiro appointment :D I get really bad neck and head pain when glutened, and this past week was a doozey!

I asked her if and how a food I consumed could affect my joints and all. She explained to me that it definately could--kind of like the energy from a surge can affect a house.

The energy surge enters and either short-circuts the whole electrical panel, or goes straight for a vulnerable outlet and burns it out. The body, to protect itself, short circuts and the resulting attack (as the body is reacting to the "invader" causing inflammation and upsetting the nervous system) can most definately affect the body's allignment.

It does make sense--to my pea brain, anyway --she also said that my spine was the tightest she's felt it in the whole time I've been seeing her. She wants me to come back on Friday. For right now, the headache is gone, and my neck is lots more relaxed. :rolleyes:

Ok, back to sillie :D

Janet!! Mygawd......at first I suspected it could be my dad, as he has portrayed East Asian women in his past. But you?! You know, I should have thought of this....should have suspected...I saw her spreading a truckload of mulch in her backyard yesterday. I also saw her leaving her house on the weekend in full Cub Scout regalia.. ..

And lately, she has had a Silly look in her eye.....

      @Ginger38, Diabetes and Celiac often go hand in hand.  Having more than one autoimmune disease is common with Celiac.  I'd err on the side of caution and go gluten free.   I did not want to go on insulin, either.  I got my diabetes under control by following the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (Dr. Sarah Ballantyne).  My diet now does include carbs.   We're supporting you through this difficult time.  
    • knitty kitty
      @Ginger38,  I've been there with horrible symptoms and diarrhea accidents and diabetes and the insulin conundrum!  My doctors were just as frustrating!   I had nutritional deficiencies.  I know your doctors refuse to test for this.  So did mine, saying "I can't make money prescribing vitamins."  Some members say a naturopathic doctor is more open to testing for deficiencies.  Remember not to start supplementing until after testing is done.  Otherwise the supplements will raise your blood levels falsely.   I had studied Nutrition at university, so I decided to supplement essential vitamins and minerals.  A B Complex, extra Thiamine (Benfotiamine) for the diabetes, magnesium and Vitamin D are the supplements I started with.   The B vitamins are water soluble so any excess is excreted easily.  Thiamine even in high doses is safe and nontoxic.  Diabetics lose more thiamine in urine because of weird kidney stuff.   I wanted to get my blood glucose levels under control because gluten free foods made my level spike for long periods, too.  I absolutely did not want to go on insulin.  Once you do, the pancreas stops making it.  Very scary.  Best to help the pancreas function with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine. I began the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, A Celiac herself).  It's a low carb, very strict diet at first, then expanded.  I considered it similar to feeding a sick baby.  You don't give hard to digest foods to a baby.  You give easily digestible foods.  This allows time for the gastrointestinal tract to calm down and heal.  Symptoms started to calm down quickly.  With the vitamins, I started feeling much better.  My blood glucose levels stabilized.  I did not go on insulin.  I do not take anti-glycemic pharmaceutical drugs like Metformin.  Just diet.  You're making the right decision to live as a Celiac.  Your body is telling you clearly.  You can get through this.  You're strong and you're fighting for yourself and your baby.  Good job!  You have the Tribe behind you!

      Though trying to diligently eat gluten free, recent bloodwork was bad so searching for culprits.  Eat lot of (preferably mixed) nuts.  Most allergen labels say may be processed on equpment that also processes wheat, etc.  Finally found ONE kind (unsalted mixed) at BJ's.  Wessley (their store brand) that did not contain that warning.  Says in large letters "A GLUTEN FREE FOOD."  Well, all nuts are a gluten free FOOD!  Have been eating and now wonder if this is intentionally decieving.  So stopped eating until find culprit.  Nuts are so good for protein and fiber (especially if trying to not eat meat).  'Tis so frustrating.  Thanks to above, I'll look into Tierra Farms.   
    • somethinglikeolivia
      Fascinating! This was very helpful, thanks for sharing
    • maryannlove
      Despite being very diligent about eating gluten free, my recent bloodwork was bad.  So been on a mission to find the culprit(s).  During Covid my daughter found "certified gluten free" Yasso mint chocolate chip yogurt bars at Costco.  I was elated and have been eating them since.  When delving into possible culprits I discovered that the boxes with 12 bars at both Costco and BJ's no longer say "certified gluten free."  But the boxes with 4 bars at groceries and Target still say "certified gluten free."  Contacted the manufacturer and was told to go by what the box says.  So guess different machinery is used.  Was also told they were in the process of changing boxes.  Will be interesting to see what that brings.
