Actually the webs do creep me out almost as much as the critters themselves. Nothing like striding out your front door only to be enveloped in sticky spiderweb.... UGH!

Had a bat in my house about a year ago. It really freaked out my ten year old beagle. The bat was flying around and the beagle was howling at it. After we got the bat out of the house, the bealge hid under the bed for about a week whenever we left the house. Poor little beagle. :lol:

What about bat poop? :lol: What happens to all those eaten mosquitos while those bats are skimming you? :lol:

Having said that, I think I'd like to see those swarming bats...but if I ever go there I will go in rain attire, lol. :lol:

:lol: They don't poop on takeoff :lol:

I was standing below the swarm and turned out clean and dry at the end of it. The worst part was grass on my butt from sitting :)

I'm having some Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream right now. I never was a fan but my husband turned me on to it & I am hooked now. I'll bet he wonders sometimes where all his ice cream goes.

I haven't Picard.

My favorite was Haagen Dazs, Mayan Chocolate, Dulce de Leche, and Mango :D

Speaking of Mango, where are you??

(I say this though I have phobias of my own. SPIDERS are mine. I can handle one at a time but if someone invited me to sit in a restaurant while swarms of spiders scittered by I'd be out of there like a shot!!!!)

Spiders freak me out too! If I see one crawling across the floor it gives me the chills and I jump a mile in the air, I just can't even stand the sight of them. Sorry little spider dudes. I have to have someone squish them for me.

Sorry Picard, missed your post about the bat and your beagle. Poor little beagle :(

Well, I am off to my daughters school to drop her supplies off. She is in the 1st grade officially!!!!!

1st grade, how exciting :):) Such a big day!

you guys are talking to the 90-lb 16 year old girl who beat 3 argentinian men in a steak eating contest and then ate dessert! i love to eat!

I am about 3/4 way done with the ice cream already... YUMMY!

i eat haagen dazs and my favorites are strawberry, and the chocolate peanut butter, i think that chocolate and peanut butter and like the best combination alive!!!!!!!!! that'y why when i ate soy i would wolf down like 50 reeses cup every day!

Getting back to the APUSH notes, i just did 9 pages which is good, finished the chapter, only 40 pages more! and 7 days to do it and write an essay! YAY! so close to being done!

(i turn the internet off when i am working so i don't get distracted by you silly-makers so that i wnot do my homework... but i give myself a break when i finish a chapter or finish the day's work...)

going back into hibernation and listening to JUNAES

Hey, Lymetoo, I'm a calligrapher & native Texan too. Is it something in the water? Ink, perhaps?

Maybe so!! I used to teach it to my third and fourth graders! They loved it and it helped their cursive writing as well!

My brother moved from Texas to Florida about 20 yrs ago and I found out one Christmas that he was doing calligraphy as well! We were both self-taught. His calligraphy is REALLY nice!!!

heheehe!!

I WAY more afraid of TICKS than spiders or bats! WAY more! Hate wasps too, as I swell up terribly from them.

I haven't seen the bats in Austin [except on TV] but I've seen bats coming out of several caves in Texas, as well as the bats in Carlsbad Caverns.

Bats are good....but not when they get too close!! We had some in our school once when I was student teaching. THAT was NOT good....but it provided a great learning experience for the children!

Ritter's won't commit. They're a cya company that just says, sorry, we can't feed you!! We have other people who will pay for our custard and we don't need you anyway! You'd probably sue us if we did feed you, we'd rather you starve!! <_<

Thank goodness there are companies out there who care that we eat and just let us decide what risk is worth it.

I've not heard of Ritters either. Is it a frozen custard, or pudding-like custard??

If you like pudding Morgan, Cozy Shack is gluten-free, they don't want anyone to die :lol:

Ritter's is frozen custard. It's out of Indiana, started about 10 years ago and is spreading through franchising, mainly in the midwest. They'd be more popular IMHO if they served us!! Here they have a family of 8 who can't go there, so has to settle for somewhere else ... and I mean settle, they're the best! Except for the fact that they're jerks!!

      Alpine Brand Spiced Cider

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref. ID:1335211 Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix.               On Friday, December 6, 2024, 1:04 PM, Consumer <baking@continentalmills.com> wrote: December 06, 2024   Dear Janie, Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix.

      Family education

      By trents · Posted

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
