Tel's fallen off a step....all his weight went on his wrist (he heard it 'crack' :o )

It's now the size of a melon.....and HE (As most men do) is refusing to go to the hosp :rolleyes: (but sufficiently complaining)

He wants to wait 'til morning.

Good, bloody hot aft, Sills <_<

Um.........Tel has a broken, melon-sized wrist (with a crack sound, no less) and refuses to go to hospital???????? WHAT IN HELL IS WITH THE MEN PHOLKS??????? :huh:

Good Lord, Nik. Yes, as Geoss said, he's one-handed, you CAN take him :lol:

I took a secret picture of that shirtless, shoe-less, shuffling eviscerated Zombie Man walking my streets here.....you should SHIRLEY SURELY be able to take stealth pics of these men.

quoting meself :lol:

was thinking I should put his photo up on the book, for analysis and opinions and such. Needing more insight to the mysterious Zombie Man, who has never been seen before or since.

Hell, I've taken a secret shot of Mr. Chow in his full Morning Sun Pose, and I'm sure I put up an av of the average-thumbed blokes who were installing the deck in our backyard last spring. . .. . . .. . . .....very phun, and quite legal, I should hope .....

You can put this on Facebook also, Em. We want to see :lol:

Well, if it'll get Susan out of her funk...

But, don't ever get mad if some roof repairin ' driveway smashin' mexican gardeners post pics of us

:lol: Good Lord, I've given them a project tomorrow, and now would like to cancel. Don't want them here any longer than they have to be. :huh:

PS--look at "Today's Top 20 Posters"...

Guess who's #1?

Now that's just sad

nope, you're truly one of US now. :lol: Very sad, yes, but also somehow.......momentous.

That is so me right now. Seems like life in the ole U S of A has robbed me of me sillly totally. Plus all dis running around, down to the valley, up to the lake, down to the valley, up to the lake, down... And every time I go to cook something some ingredient is not in me cupboard , I keep forgetting what I has here and what I doesn't. Keep thinking I is home---well, in a way I is, but different home

SHROOMIE!!!!!!!!!!! Gianknit's right, ya need to STAY STILL!!!!!!!!!!

Me babes and I are going to pile in the car and come see you. Be there tomorrow around 6? I"ll expect a fresh mojito and some yummy snacks. ;)

Susie . . . go find yer silly!!! If history serves me correctly, when this has happened in the past, you usually find some sort of unknown gluten culprit. What are you eating that's relatively new?? . . . new meds?? We'll help you suss it out!!

:( wish it were so, Jan-it, but, poops indicate that all is well - totally solid and normal. This is not a gluten issue, but another broken heart. Life crises....just lots of sadness about some circumstantial things. I hope to suss it out .....prolly need a good therapist :blink:

SILLS!!!!!!!!!!!! My kitteh has mange or summat :blink:

Scratching like crazy for at least a week now, and today I noticed hair missing - patches of skin showing :o Weez is NOT scratching a'tall, and I see no sign of fleez. So, trip to the vet today for wee Skit. $$$ Hope it's something easy and cheap.

Love you sills............

I'll try to find a shred of silly adn come back more......I still have ten pages missing - the vortex of Things Not Yet Read

Wee sweet Soozle, you come here even if you don't pheel sillie!! You don't have to be phunny, just be wif us. ;) That's an order (a gentle one, but still) :P How can someone wif such a big heart keep getting it broken? :( Hugs for you, me phriend. Hang in there :)

Sorry bout Skit-cat's scratchies.....yep we'll hope fer cheap and uncomplicated. Poor thing. It does kinda sound like phlees--although since Weez doesn't seem to have them.....I dunno. Our cat, Penny, had similar symptoms once and it turned out to be a phlee infestation--which was weird since she (as all my cats) was an indoor kitty. :blink:

And yeah--you and me wif all this heat :o Natives here are telling us that it's too early in the year fer this kind of prolonged heat (it's usually high 80's to 90 ish) and they hate to think what it's gonna be come August. It's been over 95 for at least the last 2 weeks wif no end in sight. The weather report for this weekend is 96 both days, and then to "heat up again" to 98 by Tuesday. :huh: It's madness, I tell ya!! :lol:

Well, I've decided to reward myself for a backknee-breaking day of #2 by employing a personal chef. Her name is Amy, and she specializes in gluten-free rice-n-mac and garden veg lasagna ;)

More of deuce manana <_< But, it's $ :ph34r:

Seems like life in the ole U S of A has robbed me of me sillly totally.

No dat's not sad; just means you luvs us all (I hope)

I dew lurve you all :wub:

If you don't believe me, look at my updated "friends" list :lol:

I'm sorry you got the contiguous blues, N. It pretty much sucks around here, doesn't it? "Sweet home unemployment"

Great. .. . ...... .me giving my kids hell as they race off for school, me pulling strange li'l things outta me ho-tub, me scooping up large mounds of dog poop in the backyard, staring long at my pathetic attempt at a garden, washing bird crap off me car... . .. . ...doesn't get much more fulfilling in the eye-candy category, to be sure..... ..

Do you get a medal? A certificate, note of recommendation, stock options?

I'll take the cash payout, please ;)

If anyone ever posted pics of me in the raw (as in devoid of make-up and dressed like the suburban hag that I am), I think you'se would nae recognise me. It took years of practice to perfect it, but the frump appeal reigns supreme <_< My expose' shot would most certainly be of me sans bra, sitting on my porch smoking.

Have fun, Em!

Amy was a grave disappoinment...the rice mac&cheese is good stuff, but the garden veg lasagna was way too heavy on the garden, not nearly enough of the sauce, cheese, and seasoning :blah:

I smell like pine-sol and various nastiness--must shower. Was nearly grief stricken with devastating PMS today. Started feeling like I've run out of time (I mean in the cosmic sense). BAH!!!!

Need to book this vacation before I chicken out, or get hit by a rampant cement truck bus.

And, I have very sad news...

Hey all! Just catching up! It's kinda like the old "cliff hangers" (or worse...soap operas). :P Hey pholks! Tune in next time for the answers to these important questions: Will Gshanett get the job? (truly hope so), is Hey Jude still in the dungeon...or working on another home project? Is she still smoke free? What was Pah-tays comment on FB about nectarines vs. Peaches (how can you not like peaches?) will Ems Dad be released from the health-care imprisonment for good outrageous behavior? Is Skittles allergy food related? Will Pseuss find her tickle-bone intact and fill Psillyville with sunshine and laughter? Hang on to your seat to learn about Tel's new watermelon and how he chooses to deal with it!

My favorite cliff hanger ever....is Psillyville! Nothing psilly here to add....sorry. Am ready to be unconscious for the nite mite. Hugs all 'round :wub:

      I have been on supplementation for almost 11 months with no deficiencies showing up on blood work. So was just hoping to hear someone else’s story where it took longer to heal. 
    • Erain
      Here’s the answer from the company 😊   Hi Emily,    Thank you for reaching out to us! We can confirm the Organic Protein + 50 Superfoods Powder is gluten free. The organic barley and wheatgrasses we use are harvested prior to jointing, before the grain forms and any gluten protein is present. Rest assured appropriate measures are taken to ensure our gluten free products comply with the FDA final rule to be labeled as gluten free, as claimed on the side-panel label. Our suppliers are required to verify each ingredient and in order to ensure that our gluten free products comply with the FDA requirements, our manufacturing facilities use the ELISA test method to confirm gluten levels are less than the standard limit of <20 ppm.    If you have allergy concerns about consuming the grasses, we recommend consulting further with your healthcare provider. I hope this information helps! Please let us know if you have other questions.   
    • Erain
      That’s great to know. Thanks Scott

      Welcome to the forum, @kim-d! Recently revised guidelines or the "gluten challenge" recommends the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten for at least two weeks up until the day of the antibody test blood draw. 10g of gluten is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread. IMO, I would wait until you have time to do it right so as to remove all doubt as to whether or not your gluten consumption was adequate for long enough to ensure valid testing. In the meantime, focus on removing gluten from your diet and see how your symptoms improve (or not) as one piece of the diagnostic puzzle.

      Hello. I'm a 22 year old college student and I've had constant stomach problems since I was 14. Recently I noticed that my problems get worse when I eat more wheat. I tried to follow a gluten free diet, which didn't end up entirely gluten free, but I still had reduced my gluten consumption very much, and I felt a lot better. I also have fatigue, inability to gain any weight, iron deficiency, possible vitamin deficiencies, really bad memory and brain fog that increases by time, unexplainable muscle aches and tachycardia which all can possibly explained by celiac/NCGS.  I wasn't able to continue a completely gluten free diet as I am eating from my school and dorm's cafeteria and almost all food there have gluten so I was going very hungry. They do offer a gluten free menu with a report though. So I decided I should try getting a diagnosis if I can, especially after reading how it was much harder to do gluten challenge after quitting gluten for a while. I was able to get an appointment for next week, and started eating around 150gr of bread per day to be sure.  First 24 hours I didn't feel any worse so I was starting to doubt myself, but then bloating hit hard. It wasn't anything unbearable, but the problem is I have finals soon and I'm now realizing this is a really bad time to do this. I can't begin studying from pain distracting me. I'm thinking of cancelling the appointment and eat low gluten until exams are over.  I worry about one thing. Before I went low gluten, I was eating a lot of bread already for over a month, which is what clued me into gluten, and I only went low gluten for around 10 days before going high gluten again. I wasn't that worried about a false negative. But if I eat low gluten until my exams are over, it means over a month of low gluten, and I would need a lot more time eating high gluten later to get a correct result.  I'm not sure which one should I do, bear it until my appointment or cancel it and try again when I'm free later. And If I choose the second one, how long would I need to do the gluten challenge for a blood test?
