Have you noticed a problem with Altoids supplies in your part of the country. I am in Alberta and I haven't seen Altoids at any store for about one month. I'm really concerned because I love them.

I know, it's dangerous territory to be entering, but I'm serious. I can't find them anywhere.

LMAO! :lol:

Nope, I don't have a problem finding them - I get them at the checkout counter at A&P...

Although Terry's been in the doghouse for quite some time now, so I haven't been buying them as often... :rolleyes:

Hugs.

I thought we needed some good hearted laughter. But, I hope the stores restock here soon.

Well, it just seems that he must have been in there for a while ... is the length of time well-deserved? If the supply is low, maybe HE should be stockpiling as I'm sure SHE is not!!

Should have known you'd show up on the Altoids thread!! I hope you're feeling better!!

Oh trust me, the anniversary faux pas is just the drop in the bucket! Yes, August 15th rolled around, and not a sound, peep, card, nada, nothing..... Finally, I went to bed at 11:00 p.m. and left the anniversary card on his pillow (for maximum guilt effect... of course.......). The next morning, I got the old "Geez, I've been so busy lately, I totally forgot......" Um, ..........................yeah....... <_<

It's been downhill since then........ :angry:

OMG! Felidae! You're right! I went to A&P tonight to pick up some stuff and EVER SINGLE AISLE the Altoids section was empty! I have no idea how long it has been that way since I haven't been buying them lately (reason stated above <_< )!

I wonder what's up?

(Oops...... maybe I should re-word that.......... :D;) )

See, I knew you would normally have observed a hole in the Altoid section! But you had good reason not to notice.

Not to worry, Karen. Have spoken with my husband and he feels that the "Goddess of Altoids" cannot go without! :lol::lol: We will mail them to you as soon as Terry is out of the dog house. In my humble opinion, however, he should stay there -- out in the cold -- for a little while longer. Again, just my opinion. :rolleyes:

And Carla -- OF COURSE I would be on an Altoids thread! It's like a moth to the flame . . . . . . . :lol::lol:

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease. Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Insomnia help

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
