Dave mowed our grass on Friday, I think it was. Every year we wonder if we'll have a White Christmas. It's been quite awhile. I WANT SNOW!!!!! Lots of it -- like when I was a kid -- and we would get to go sledding . . .

This is great -- when my kids were younger, it snowed, and I said that I knew of a hill that we could go to that was PERFECT -- and no one really knew about it! So, I pack up everything, and we head out . . . . about 20 minutes into our play, my father shows up -- with the thermos in hand. And a bag of mini marshmallows. When I was a kid, he would always make sure that we had hot chocolate whenever we went sledding or ice skating. Wasn't that sweet? It made me cry.

I'm trying to figure out a way to put rudders on my wheelchair -- I think I have a plan, although I MAY have to invest in a seat-belt for my chair! If you guys thought they got out of the way for me in Vegas when I was tipsy, just imagine me on a sledding hill in a rigged wheelchair! HA! :lol::lol::lol::lol::D

:lol::lol::lol:

I do believe that you will need two things

1st a helmet

2nd a video camera so you can tape this and send it into america's funniest home videos and win $10,000

This whole idea sounds like something off of a National Lampoon's movie LMAO!!

I'm Canadian (from Calgary), but I'm working in California. I phoned my parents (in Calgary) yesterday and told them about the weather here and about going to the beach yesterday. That was a bad move. They disowned me and I'm no longer welcome home for Christmas. :)

The temperature will continue to drop through the weekend...the forecasted high for Sunday is -23C (-9.4F) and the low will be -27C (-16.6F). Yikes!

I am so envious of you all!

The closet thing I've ever snow is hail, I live in Queensland In Ausralia, and with the exception of the other week , Queensland doesnt get snow. (it was down near the border not near me and was more sleet) It snowed in Other places in Victoria and New south Wales as well, Snow ANYWHERE in Australia in November just shouldn't happen ( its almost summer here)

Not much snow here, but right now it's -16c or -26c with the windchill. Monday's forecast high? -27c low of -31. I love it when our highs are -27c <_< . Tuesday sunny high -18c low -30c. On the bright side, I do get to spend an hour at the arena tonight and a minimum 2 hours in a cold arena tomorrow, and another hour on Sunday as well. Sunday will be the killer. They changed the hockey practice, so each boy has a 7:15am practice and I'm working Saturday night so I won't get to bed until 1am :blink: then up at 6 for hockey. I must love my boys very much.

Where are you Chinook? Come out, come out wherever you are!

I love my boys very much too, but I'm happy they aren't interested in playing hockey! The schedule would be all consuming!

Michelle :)

Snow days just never get old. Getting the call tonight that we don't have school tomorrow due to weather made me feel like a 7 year old again!! I was giddy that I got another day in my jammies to watch movies. I'm just a big kid :P

Today I watched Beverly Hillbilly DVD's lol :D

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
