Men Can Be So Childish

What's on my mind right now? Shooting a certain person in a certain spot! A lot of you know my story about the old goat and I. We split up a few weeks ago and he calls me tonight from a motel room with a woman he's known for awhile and they're in the middle of you know what! He's getting back at me for leaving him (I couldn't put up with his controlling ways anymore) and this is his way of paying me back. It shouldn't bother me but I still love the old goat.

I....I...I...I'm sitting here sputtering!

Now you know you did the right thing! Wanting you to listen! Might want to tell that woman about that! She might not be too pleased.

If he comes around, here is a recipe for goat stew in the crockpot

That's impressively childish. He didn't just major in asshattery, but got a doctorate in the subject!

You did the right thing getting away from him. How childish. You can go on in life and find happiness for yourself. Put yourself first now. I am so sorry he did that to you.

I called her this morning and asked her if she did that intentionally. She was shocked you could hear it in her voice. He did that without her knowing. I feel sorry for her because she thought that he really cared for her to find out that he used her. Needless to say she's gone. He called really ticked off at me because SHE left. I told him that's what he gets for doing what he did, then I hung up on him.

With the past record of this guys behavior you may want to get a court ordered stay away order. Do not respond to stuff like this, while calling the women this happened with was a natural thing to do it may not have been wise. This guy may not be just childish he could end up being dangerous. Protect yourself please.

That's terrible!

When I had my first apartment, I had to have a roommate. My first roommate was a friend but he moved out to take care of a house for his dad. It belonged to an elderly neighbor lady with 30 cats. He did ask me to move in with him. The rent would have been a lot cheaper. But as much as I love cats, I couldn't stand the stench. They had apparently peed on the walls or the floor or I don't know what. Doug hired people to clean and try to get the stench out, but it never happened. So when I did visit I would have to keep my visits short. I just couldn't take it.

Anyway... That meant I had to get a new roommate. And when he or she moved out, yet another. So I took out an ad in the paper. I did ask for a $20 deposit when I took off of their rent once they moved in. If they didn't move in, I kept the money.

And I kept the money with one guy. Turns out he was just using me to make his ex jealous. He did apologize to me but said it was worth the $20. He somehow left my phone number with her so when she called I innocently said he was moving in. Then when the day came for him to move in, and he didn't show, I called him at work and he told me why he did it.

So yeah. Men can do stupid things. Oh and did I mention that I am married now? Oh yeah. Yep. Yep.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens. I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
