as i am smugly thinking:

.  i do keep in shape by regularly running up the stairs to forget what i went up there for.  i remember when i get back down, so there's always 2 trips involved :)  who needs 'insanity'?  when you have *senility* hahahaaa

 

...methinks we really should be quite fit from all this "second tripping we do"...

I coach my boys soccer team and I am constantly mixing up the kids names. It's gotten to the point where they don't respond immediately when I call out instructions because they are waiting to see how I'll correct myself first.

My Dad (who surely had this, too) used to run the list of all our names before he got to the one he meant. He'd start with my mom's name, then my sister's, then mine then my niece's....it was funny back then, but at least now we know why he was doing it. 

We still do it with each other just for funzies in his memory.  :D

My latest repeated FUBAR was leaving the tea kettle on and going to bed.  Fortunately it almost always had enough water in it that it didn't go dry by morning.  Maybe once or twice tho.  I used to have dyslexia and mix up  numbers fairly often.  But not much problem with that now.

 

The door frame attacks are not something they warn us about in safety classes.  Those things are viscous! :)

I have a heavy duty kettle that has survived a boil off a few times... it's a bit discoloured now... has character.

I once fell asleep making beef stew. Fortunately it was in a very resilient non-stick pan that survived the ordeal. The stew on the other hand... not so much. 

IrishHeart Veteran

Holy smokes!

 

You guys must sleep like the dead to not hear a whistling tea kettle squealing like that.... Lucky dogs!

 

If  a guy sneezes 3 miles away, I am wide awake. :lol:

nvsmom Community Regular

Nah, I managed to boil my kettles off while I was up and about in the house, walking by it repeatedly. It has no whistle, just lots of steam.  LOL

well, that makes more sense if there is no whistle, but your wallpaper may have peeled a bit and you probably got a nice facial and hair curl out of that

misty air? :lol:

GFinDC Veteran

Oh no, it would whistle like a wolf if I had the flame up high.  But I always keep it very low, so no whistling.  I don't mind the tea water taking a little longer to get hot.  If it takes awhile that's fine.  I usually keep it half on and half off the burner so it warms up even slower.

 

The bear was fun.  But who can resist a Lady with a feather?

My bunny is up all night, every night, playing. On top of that my husband sounds like an entire army of chainsaw murderers when he sleeps. It is a miracle that with my earplugs I can even hear an alarm go off in the mornings. Sleeping with them takes some getting used to, but it sure beats going to jail for murdering your husband because you can't sleep. :lol:

Grunion Run!!!!!!

 

ya...havent done it in 30 years but bio extra credit calls.....should be fun????

JNBunnie1 Community Regular

Not knowing what a grunion is until I read further along in your post, I had

at first assumed it to be something local to you like Bigfoot or the chupa

cabra, and was very interested to see what photos you came up with!

;)

GottaSki Mentor

they are little silver fish that come up on the beach to lay their eggs...sad to say we didn't see one and we checked from the tip of La Jolla to the Jetty in South Mission Beach -- (pacific beach in san diego) -- no little silver fish..hoping they choose tonight...but sadly I'll be camping in the local mountains so that I can spend tomorrow watching pro bike riders pedal up the mountainside.

 

going to turn in a couple pictures of me and beautiful empty beaches taken at 1230 and 230am pt -- along with an essay on reasons why the grunion no longer run...i'll get a couple points and that is all i need as long as i ace the final :)

 

will try to post one of the photos of me flipping off my professor with a big smile when i get back from camping!

^^ Bahahaha!

Spent more than an hour working on my grocery list, managed to remember to actually bring it to the store, STILL forgot to buy 3 things, that were ON THE LIST. I wasn't even feeling that foggy today! Lol

IrishHeart Veteran

 got this today in an email. Maybe it isn't a celiac thing after all. :lol: maybe it's just us.

 

 

 

A.A.A.D.D.- KNOW THE SYMPTOMS!
Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder.

Age-Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. 

This is how it manifests: 

I decide to water my garden. 
As I turn on the hose in the driveway,
 
I look over at my car and decide it needs washing. 

As I start toward the garage, 
I notice mail on the porch table that 
I brought up from the mail box earlier. 

I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car. 

I lay my car keys on the table,
 
Put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table,
And notice that the can is full. 

So, I decide to put the bills back 
On the table and take out the garbage first... 

But then I think, 
Since I'm going to be near the mailbox 
When I take out the garbage anyway, 
I may as well pay the bills first. 

I take my check book off the table, 
And see that there is only one check left. 
My extra checks are in my desk in the study,
 
So I go inside the house to my desk where 
I find the can of Pepsi I'd been drinking
. 

I'm going to look for my checks, 
But first I need to push the Pepsi aside 
So that I don't accidentally knock it over. 

The Pepsi is getting warm, 
And I decide to put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold. 

As I head toward the kitchen with the Pepsi, 
A vase of flowers on the counter 
Catches my eye--they need water. 

I put the Pepsi on the counter and 
Discover my reading glasses that 
I've been searching for all morning. 
I decide I better put them back on my desk, 
But first I'm going to water the flowers. 

I set the glasses back down on the counter ,
 
Fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote. 
Someone left it on the kitchen table. 

I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV,
I'll be looking for the remote, 
But I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table, 
So I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, 
But first I'll water the flowers. 

I pour some water in the flowers, 
But quite a bit of it spills on the floor. 

So, I set the remote back on the table, 
Get some towels and wipe up the spill. 

Then, I head down the hall trying to 
Remember what I was planning to do.
 

At the end of the day:
 
The car isn't washed, 
The bills aren't paid, 
There is a warm can of 
Pepsi sitting on the counter, 
The flowers don't have enough water, 
There is still only 1 check in my check book, 
I can't find the remote, 
I can't find my glasses, 
And I don't remember what I did with the car keys.
 
Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today,
 
I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all day, 
And I'm really tired. 

I realize this is a serious problem, 
And I'll try to get some help for it, but first I'll check my e-mail.... 

Do me a favor. 
Forward this message to everyone you know, 
Because I don't remember who I've sent it to. 

Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!
P.S. I don't remember who sent it to me, so if it was you, I'm sorry

      Thank you for the information. I did order/receive GliadinX to have on hand in the event of suspected exposure.

      Just had a letter through from the Celiac team, they’ve diagnosed me through my bloods, no endoscopy/biopsy needed. I guess I’ll be sticking around on this forum and I’m sure I’ll be back soon. thanks for all your help 
    • Ryangf
      Hi everyone I’m somewhat new here- at least this is my first time posting.    I have been having persistent stomach issues since July of 2024- so around 7 ish months I’ve been having issues. At first I thought it was just a bout of constipation because I had had that issues before but- it simply did not go away at first I went to urgent care for my bloating and stomach pain and constipation and they basically didn’t really check anything and just passed it off as constipation and gave me stool softeners. Then I started having joint pain and a sharp stinging sensation in my back that debilated me and urgent care passed it off as muscle spasms. Then I finally went to my primary care doctor and they put me on a lowfodmap diet- and that didn’t help…(I was still eating gluten product),then I told her that didn’t help and then she didn’t contact me for several weeks not even trying to pinpoint the cause of my discomfort. So I started doing my own research from reputable sites- and analyzed my symptoms. Then suddenly I started losing weight rapidly 23 pounds in a month to be exact and I had like pale yellowish stool. Then I started realizing maybe it was gluten that was irritating me and I cut it out and started feeling a little bit better but still had some discomfort. Then I contacted my doctor again for a blood test for it and it came back negative. But I still was worried at least if it could be anything else going on in my stomach though I was sure it was celiac disease. Then after me practically begging her to let me get an endoscopy eventhough she insisted I was fine- I choose a doctor to see that was not my primary care doctor to evaluate me and they recommended I get an endoscopy…and I had an endoscopy a few weeks later. That came back negative for celiac with my biopsy too and no other damages from my ultra sound I got or anything. So I was naturally extremely confused. So I started to feel like maybe I was over exaggerating. But then I started researching on endoscopies- and found out for a confirmed positive blood test and endoscopy I had to be CURRENTLY eating gluten something neither of my doctors notified me about nor the GI specialists. So I realized my doctor probably would not order me another endoscopy…and also I just decided do I really need to go through the pain of eating gluten again for an endoscopy- when I could just stop eating it? So I weighed it and at the moment I decided- I would not get an endoscopy and just be gluten free- and for a little bit- I was fine- then my stomach started hurting again- a few times could’ve been from cross contamination but I also saw that a lot of the gluten free products I was eating contained corn and I tested it and stopped eating corn products for a few days and felt better. So I also did research on corn and found that some people with celiac disease can respond negatively to corn because it has a protein in it similar to gluten. So I cut that out completely and felt better for a long time. Except for ocassional corn cross contaminations I felt fine- until recently where I think I may have had corn products a few times consistently- and not noticed despite my stomach upset because I had been dealing with stomach issues so long I thought it was the norm. Now for the past few days possibly because of the consistent corn exposure for the past month I’ve been having an upset and bloated stomach eventhough I stopped eating the corn- because I think (though studies are not sure on corn damaging celiacs stomach lining) corn may have been damaging my stomach lining again during that time- and I may be developing some new intolerances or conditions. I want to go get that checked out but I don’t want to be gaslighted by doctors again- cause it makes me feel crazy. And I’m also debating on whether or not I want to go through the pain and stomach damage again for 2-6 weeks to really confirm if I have celiac disease- and I’ve been even more reluctant because now I am in classes again and I have to be in class consistently standing up a lot (culinary class) for multiple hours on end and I don’t think me being fatigued and sick and in pain is going to be good for me during that time. Should I get an endoscopy to confirm if I have celiac disease again this time actually eating gluten up to that point- or should I just first try to figure out what intolerances I may have developed or other conditions via a doctor- or wait for a while until my stomach lining has repaired sufficiently or at least enough before getting an endoscopy and a blood test again at a time when I am not busy a year or so from now while maintaining a gluten free corn free diet until my endoscopy is booked and then I will begin eating gluten and corn up until the endoscopy? (Sorry I know that was a lot.)

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?
