About Me
Born in upstate NY, lived there until 2006. Struggled with illnesses and allergies always. In 2007 became ill and got progressively worse to the point of having to leave my job. Finally got a diagnosis....pretty much unlooked for in Nov. 2007. Was a last minute decision to include endoscopy along with colonoscopy. Fortunately the GI doc. had a clue.
As of Nov 2008 still struggling with health issues and hoping for more answers. Love West Virginia! Hope springs eternal. Now if only I could get my family to all get tested too!

thanks to you all for letting me Wine or Wodka or Wat-ever! Lol.....I never could drink....wish I could. I do plan on firing my Dr. office in total. They have been rude on a number of occaisions to top it all off. As soon as I find a decent replacement, and get a grip on this new information. I have started physical therapy....working first on the neck... -

Checkin in again. I'm tempted to start reading back....but I KNOW better than to do that. Update about me: Many of my Celiac symptoms refuse to disappear. I'm ready to fire the NPA that I'm seeing. The one I had and loved has moved on. This one apparently feels I'm in need of "counseling", and that if I take drugs to help me sleep I'll feel, oh so... -

Hi everybody! Haven't been here in ages. Caught up a few pages, but not far back, knowing that I could get totally sucked in and lost forever. Joess....I LOVE, love, love the new babies! I'm glad that I see some of you on FB, and so am not totally out of the loop. Hoping that you are all relatively well. Hugs all 'round! -

Hi everybody!!! It feels like forever since I've visited here. Or maybe I just dreamed you all when I had need of you the most. Dunno. Not a lot of silly in me these days...so far proving to be a really nasty year. Seems I've fallen into this truly unpsilly place and I can't get up. I've lost patience with everything (as I like to say....my camel is... -

Hi all! Did a quick cruise through the last pages. I really need to make the time to stay caught up here. I miss youse guys. I'm in the process of packing to make the trip home. Dad did so well for the first few days. They took him off the oxygen, and took him for a few spins in a wheelchair. The plan was to get him to a rehab facility asap because... -

Hey everybody! I have been away much too long! No attempt has been made to catch up and read the last...who knows how many pages. The whole sight looks so different I wasn't sure I was in the right place! Hope everyone is doing all right. I'm still wasting way too much time on FB and farming. Fun way to waste time, tho, and easy to keep in touch with... -

I've been away too long.....but I'm caught up now. Been having some psilly on FB...or is that facegook!!!! (Love it!) Ahhhhh....how I long for 80 degrees and sea breezes....on Christmas day or on any ol' day. I'm so jealous! We got snowed in Saturday and Sunday last...even the post offices closed down. The parking lots and sidewalks are still a mess... -
ARCHIVED Having Chocolate Cravings Bad
flourgirl replied to txplowgirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yep. Used to be I could have sweets around and not have any urge to splurge. Since going gluten-free I can't leave chocolate alone! I try to not keep any in the house...but I can't stand it. Gotta have it. I have no idea why. I didn't have any cravings when I was pregnant!!! (Of course...I was very ill for 8 months, too). I have never had a problem... -

I like the roll over the top simply because I can't stand it touching the wall, never mind if it's right or wrong. Glad to know there has been a study done....and I loved the pictures! Floaty eyeball, indeed. GJeoss gave me a memory bubble......empty rolls as do-to-doooo. We loved to play with those as kids (we were very easily amused back then!). Glad... -

This is not exactly something I've ever wondered about.....but a really cool concept. I wonder if we could convince 2 pairs of twins to marry and have children so we could examine their genes! WTH!!!??? The events weren't traumatic enough? You need guilt and shame (unearned, unwarrented) on top of all of that? What you seem to need is... -
I really like the yellow sweet potato better than the orange. It's not as sweet, a little drier, and can be used in any recipe that other potatoes go in, including soups and stews. I can't find them in the market, though. They must be available some place...I do grow my own. If you can find them, I would urge you to try them! Yum! You can make sweet...

I didn't think I was ever going to catch up! Computer went nutzo on Fri. 13th. My antivirus went into a continuous loop (talk about spinning your wheels!), and I could not get the computer to do anything! I don't care to tabulate how many hours I spent wandering around in the vast darkness inside my computer......but it's finally fixed. Don't care to...
