Good pictures Lisa :D I think we have a little more snow than you do, but we don't get the wind and the snow drifts that Sask. gets.

Besides, I know a few farmers back there that's happy to have it on their fields.... :lol:

Hummmmmmm I hate to tell you this, but the BC Lions won the grey cup, and go Canucks go! :lol::lol:

the pictures are very nice even though it doesn't seem like that much snow to me. We don't have very much yet which is really starting to anger me since i LOVE snow!!!! and i LOVE winter!! its my favorite time of year and it is driving me nuts that it keeps warming up so what little snow we do get keeps melting. but the snow that we now have i am pretty sure is here to stay which makes me very excited!!!!!!

Wow! You guys sure got a lot of snow! That's crazy for November.

The weather has been a bit odd this fall in Canada. Vancouver got more snow than usual and cold temperatures, it was super cold here in Alberta, Saskatchewan has obviously been cold and has got lots of snow, and on PEI about 2-3 weeks ago people were golfing, mowing lawns, and doing yard work!

Oh... It looks sooo preeeetttyyyy.... :D

I'm in Sacramento. Where we regularly get to 105-110 degrees F in the summer.

December in Sacramento looks pretty much like August in Sacramento. But we have mountains nearby where it snows.

I wish we had 2 1/2 feet of snow! That would make me the happiest girl in the world. We usually have tons by now but not this year. :(

Beautiful pictures, Lisa! We had +17 degrees Celsius last week, which was just insane. Today it is -4 degrees, and we have a sprinkling of snow on the ground. We better have a white Christmas this year, last year sucked. The kids didn't even get to go skiing last year and weren't happy about it.

Yes, I love the snow too. Especially being a tomboy, if I could I'd live in the bush somewhere and only use skidoo to get around anyways (*jealous of my guy friend for living that life* :lol: ). Its snowing kinda again today haha.

Plus frozen snow = road hockey ;)

Just wait til I take pics at new years! hehehe

Today we finally got our first real snow of the season.....It's about a couple of inches with maybe more thru the night.... I spent most of my day outside.... It is soooo beautiful....... we own 50 acres away from where we live so I started walking only to find some A--hole or several a--holes shot & killed 6 deer on the property & left them lay. My husband & son hunt & are responsible hunters & this find made us all cry.... I don't mind the sport of hunting but just to kill & leave the animal is beyond cruel. We have a program here where food banks feed the hungary & anyone can donate vension meat....so now we have to get rid of 6 wasted deer. We left the property unposted because we know hunting is popular here but next year we will have no trespassing, no hunting & private property signs bordering our property.These deer could have fed so many homeless people, I'm sick...

Sorry for the off of the topic rant.......

Man, we escaped most of the snow here, but 30 miles away they got a foot of snow. That's more than we got the last two years combined. I'm in Southern Missouri, but we've had winters with 50 inches of snow....so the last two winters were pretty boring!! ;)

Today was SO cold! the daytime high was 25. It's supposed to warm up tomorrow. ... like in the low 40's.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
