Oh my God! It's never ending! My poor parents, their house, I had no idea how bad things were run down! The water system was dying. And now from the sudden doubling of water use for these past few days, it just died! We have no freaking water! I was already panicking about the water limits, because my kids are messy, and they're having accidents constantly... -

The emails are coming through ok... thank you guys for taking the time to do that. I think there were more than 3, but I think that there may have been a couple that only went out to one person, not the group. So I'm glad that you all sent what you have, and I can try to piece it together. I thought we could at least do this without getting any uglier... -

I'm having trouble with my email, sometimes it's working and sometimes it's not. But I do need something, something I didn't think I would. Has anyone kept all the emails and updates I've sent? It would help me keep dates straight about what was said when. I am going to talk to a lawyer after all. I didn't want to, but the things he did and said today... -

Hi guys.. just stopped in a for a few minutes. I'm at loose ends, I don't know what to do today. Going over to get more stuff, or starting to clear the stored stuff out of this bedroom seems repugnant... every step I take like that makes it all more real and permanent. I can't stand that. I'm starting to realize that a lot of life was based on lies, and... -

I just don't know.. my parents' keep screaming Lawyer, and I'm so reluctant. I never dreamed this could happen... not with us. Sure as hell not this freaking fast, with no warning for me, no way to prepare... My mom... is so enraged, I've never seen her like this.

It's worse than I thought! Even worse than I thought! He went through all the bills last night and is blaming me for everything! All are money problems are my fault! I can't stop shaking and crying! He's furious with me! With ME! God help me! I did everything I could to keep us afloat, so much, so much, and now he's acting like I'm some dumb deadbeat that... -

Just here for a sec... sent Susie an email that she can pass on. I wish I could say I'm doing ok... I hate dragging people down... but it's been pretty bad. Crying nonstop... The kids aren't doing well either. If I never saw this coming, you know they didn't by about a thousand times more. -

I can't stay. I could never afford to live here on my own, with no one to watch the kids while I work... I can't even stand looking around at this house that we struggled so hard for. Just seeing our toothbrushes together in a cup in the bathroom... Every time I think of it, more tears come... I trusted him so much... with everything... We've had problems... -

Sorry if I can't worry about that stuff now. I'm here to tell my friends that my entire world just came crashing down around me. Brian told me last night he wants a divorce. After all these years. And I never saw it coming. Turns out he's been lying for quite awhile about how he feels. I'm still in shaking, shuddering shock. I don't think I'll... -

Dear God! How do you live there?! I love the second one, how it is "an affordable entry-level property," for $300,000. And what the phark is a yurt? -

Well... I'm sick of being sick. I've been having gluten type symptoms for 10 days straight now. When it started, I thought it was cc from Micky D's... but I don't think it would last so long if that was it, so at this point I don't know what's making me sick. Diarrhea, evil stomach pain... the fatigue is overwhelming today. I've been trying like hell... -

Got this from a friend, and now I pass it on to my Silly friends. I think #1 is my favorite. None of that Sissy Stuff Are you tired of those sissy 'friendship' poems that always sound good, but never actually come close to reality? Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship. You will see no cutesy little smiley faces... -
ARCHIVED Degenerative Disc Disease
Ridgewalker replied to KristaleeJane's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Although I'm not sure what the process actually is, I do think it's possible that Degenerative Disc Disease could be related to Celiac. I'm 30 now, and was diagnosed with it (DDD) when I was 18. 18! And there's another member here who was diagnosed with it at 17. Over the years since I was diagnosed with it, I've had discs actually rupture, and then gradually... -

What thread is this? I wanna see! Into the drink! My mom says that, such a great phrase. Johnsmom's cracking me up! I, unlike Em, do constantly inspect what comes out of my nose (as well as my children's noses.) I think it comes from having chronic sinus infections. There's a whole color code, you know. Clear/white is always ok. ... -

Ridgewalker replied to Debkrause1's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
There are three Food Lions I shop at, and the newest one (a couple years old) has an organic section. They actually do carry a few gluten-free things mixed into that section-- Bob's Red Mill Chocolate Chip Cookie and Brownie mixes, a couple gluten-free Envirokids cereals, Ian's gluten-free Chicken Nuggets, and Vann's Waffles. I've gotten things there... -

Yeah, but if you scream like THAT, all should be forgiven. My mom posted on my thread! She comes around and reads every so often, but that was her first post. Gawwwwd you guys, I dunno what I ate, but I feel like I'm gonna die. Like, bookshelves in the bathroom don't even matter at this point, because I can't read and writhe at the... -

Actually it's not too bad, thank goodness. Thanks for the congrats! Take your medicine, and totally take advantage of the down-time!!! In fact, get a little bell to call for room service. That would be so cool. :lol: That's pretty good, and so true! -
ARCHIVED Kinnikinnick Breads?
Ridgewalker replied to Live2BWell's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
So far, I do like every Kinnikinick product I've tried. One thing I do with the hamburger buns, is slice out a middle section of the bun. gluten-free bread can be kinda dense, and if I don't slice out the middle of the bun, it's just too much bread, or something. I hollow out the hotdog buns in the same fashion, although that's a little trickier. ... -

Hehe... That's kinda similar to what I did at breakfast this morning , so.... I try and get some real food into them occasionally. I think it might possibly be done, now. Thanks for the congrats and kudos, everybody!
