So I'm gonna go to work tomorrow, in the hopes that routine will be good for me. Should be a quiet day, not too demanding, and I'm going to bed soon and getting up early so there's no rush in the morning and I can get there early to fix whatever might've happened Friday. I'm already 30% better today than I was yesterday, which is maybe not great compared to normal, but I hope I will continue to get better this fast. Have a little 'coping kit' I'm bringing to work, hee hee.....

How's the head, Sheep Lady?

How's the head, Sheep Lady?

Still there, seems to be bright lights that bring it on mostly. Thankfully not a rip my head oph pain though!

Anyone want to help me tidy up my house? I have an aversion to anything remotely related to housework :lol:

I hope all the phlooies are pheeling much phiner soon! I am amazed we escaped the piggie phlu. We had close contact with phamily members with it...

We need to get a plumber to the house- sillies there is a rankest of all stanks coming from the kitchen sink and nothing makes it go away....

Amanda, is it coming from the garbage disposal?? I did this . . . Open Original Shared Link . . . and it helped mine out immensely. Only needed to do the soap one and it cleared up. Give it a try before you pay a plumber $90 just to ring the doorbell . . . actual work costs more!!!

OK . . . no silly . . . just checkin' in to say "hey". Hope you sold yer house today Judee.

I wish it was the disposal--nope it reeks in the bathroom too and we can use draino in the tub and a week later need it again...... Thanks for the info though- very handy :)

Man-daaahh...sounds like a problem with yer vent! All your plumbing vents outside to keep smell out of your house and to help it all drain out wifout causing a vaccuummmmm. Hope it's a quik and eazy fix.

Wide....tis not migrains izzit? I used to get them all of the time and couldna stand any light at all. Telehubby gets migrains....sometimes caused by brite lites. We've found a whole list of phoods that cause them for him, too. Even splenda! Am trying to get him to keep a phhud jernal, but to no avail. Don't think he wants to limit his fuud too much :lol: . The guy wants to plan dinner while he's eating breakfast. Me....personally...don't particularly care when it comes to phood. If I'm busy with something, I don't want to interrupt it to stop to eat.

How the heck is ever'body else?

Jack got out of bed this morning, came into the office and said to me, "Mom, tablecloths were originally meant to be used as towels with which dinner guests could wipe their hands and faces after eating".

He walked toward the kitchen, then stopped, turned and added, "AND........In New York City, approximately 1,600 people are bitten by other humans every year".

Can I borrow Jack. I need some laughs today

Sounds like things are gettin a bit personal over there, Judith :P

hell no one in their right might want into my ''drawers since they are depends'' now. :ph34r:

Hi Bun-knee :( Are you pheeling any better today? I'm sticking wif lots of spring water, bananas, a little plain yogurt and mint tea. Mine hit with headache and upset stomach --I'm alternating between being hot and cold, too :angry:

I'm going to try chicken soup today--not makin it from sctrach--I have some Pacific broth in the cupboard.

We're in sillie sick bay :lol:

Hell didn't know patti and bunny were sick .............not fair..............hope your both better

:lol::lol:

My "cure" for any stomach ailments is to eat the hottest thing you can tolerate.

Me appetite came back so I had a hamburger (no bread) and some zucchini. I'm actually feeling better--but now Mark has it :o Same exact symptoms.

You know what helps my stomach--wine. Really :lol:

wine.........wonder if it helps the 'd'

Joodee, thinking of you and your house today. I just feel like today's the day that a love affair will blossom and you will find a buyer.

loved your house; it looked so beautiful in the picture. When you have time I wish you would tell us more about it, and the National Wildlife Habitat status, etc. It looks like a warm, happy house. :)

Thanks

Hey, Nik Nik pooped in! Hope you're lovin every minute <:jealousface:> No surporse about the Amerikanner TV shows. Methingks the world has a love-hate thing going wif us (heck...most of US have a love-hate thing going wif us :P ). Would not want to live anywhere else....uh uh.

Lots of "visitors" in the Park. Our dollar really sucks right now, so it's cheaper for other countries to vacation here. I hear lots of accents and non-english people often have enough english to get by. Fun! Germanic languages, heavy british accents (NikNik...you're not really HERE vacationing and just "telling" us that you're being a Turkey....are you?) Wish I had more time to actually converse with them...could be soooo interesting.

Hope your all having a bright-shiny day today. Juuuuude......am thinking of you and still sending positive vibes for you! Things will come to pass at the right time with the right people.

even a video to watch. I didn't see it yet

so far no one seems to give a dam about the garden, birds, wildlife on property.

Guess Jim and I are alone in our love of this property.

People sure can be picky.

Have a great day everyone on

no bookings this week as kids going back to school and Labor day holiday coming up

so i'm going to just relax and enjoy it

i still want to scrap and paint 3 doors and door frames but it's for me to enjoy

Paint is on i don't react to either.

I'll have time to read and catch up on reading

thanks for sticking by me in my virtual absence.

Hugs Judy

Hi Amanda

see you there

hope your feeling ok and had a good weekend

Judyin Philly Enthusiast

hI sUSAN rANGER......SEE YOU

ok all you tree huggers

here is a neat video from NWF on how easy it is to get you yard certified.

this new director on the video took over when our dear friend Craig Tuffs, i've mention on here before passed away on father's day from the same brain cancer that T Kennedy did.

We were really close to Craig and our whole garden club got their gardens certified.

it's really easy or I sure wouldn't have gotten it done :lol:

You can even do on line now......easier than what i did with photos and graphs of our property

Well. . . ........day two of my five-day sojourn as Thy Menstruating Majesty.. . ...... <_< ....and I have been walking around with my shorts unzipped due to the characteristic bloating. Both dogs have been tied out front, lying on the steps, watching the world go by. Well, you know what's coming.

Our mailman, effective today it would seem, is delivering two hours earlier 'round here. He was suddenly approaching, and the dogs began barking and howling their hellos (this is @ 7:30 am - - too early for such shenanigans). So out I rush, pants undone, me having totally forgotten this.

Our mailman hands me our stash of letters, smiles, then frowns, then nods.. . . . .... . turns and trots down the driveway.

:lol:

Gawd.. . ....... ...hope he has a wife who gets bloated. I'm hoping it is an obvious thing - - "Oh, that woman has her period.....totally understandable". :huh:<_<

I brought the dogs in and THEN noticed. Crap... . . . .should have done me shorts up, ran back out and yelled, "HEY! I've got my period!! That's why my pants were undone! Y'know, in case you were wondering.....".....

With all that heat sure hope you got in some practice tanning afore ye left Nik :P We all know the British whitefair skin and how infamously it burns. Me first memory of London, too hot for Brits in early June, sailing up de Thames to Windsor Castle and all de guys took off der shirts. On de way home, MANY, MANY red sunburned mens :P , not a pretty sight.

Still it sounds like you went to Turkey to sit in bars drinking Black Russians (didn't know you had to go to Turkey for dat) :o and watching Martha Stewart. No, de only thing dat woman couldln't do was keep herself out of jail, and she even triumphed over dat--redocorated all de mess hall tables, ordered new dinner sets and candelabra, fashioned centrepieces out of toilet paper dyed with leftover broccoli and carrots...GAHHHHH!!! Hate dat woman!

Places for Cover, check: We have a rockpile, lotsa trees where squirrels and chipmunks nap

Places to Raise Young, check: De ground squirrels do it under de rockpile

Well, I'm feeling better, about 80%. I'm used to running on 80% so that's not bad. Went to work, took a nap. Now I'm eating pan fried chicken in olive oil, with garlic, lemon pepper and salt. Mmmmm..... Oddly enough, my veggie is fresh cucumuber. Nicely balances the highly peppered chicken, trying to clear out my nose. Should be better enough for more bunbuns in a day or two! I've been trying to tell myself they're good for me, since they're made with only honey and cinnamon..... not working yet....

Hey ever-body!

Em-N-Em.....I jest luuv you! YOu give great giggles! (I promise not to laugh and tell).

Juuude....Telehubby and I looked for our house for a year! We knew we'd find the right one, and since we had a year rental lease, at first there was no hurry. As time was running out we finally looked at a house that we didn't want to look at. It's not far enough out of the way. The YARD was what I was looking for in all of the many places we "visited"......as much as price, more than the house....it had to have the right yard, or at least the right potential yard. It had to be something I could work with to make my own. SO.....the house we didn't even want to look at was the one place we both loved. There was one other house we truly did love...but the yard was horrid. I've had a ball creating what we call Saffold Park, the house is perfect for us, and the neighborhood suits us fine. Closer neighbors than we want, but they are quiet and respect privacy. ANywAy...I guess I'm trying to say is that there IS someone who is meant to love your house and yard. They may not know it right now, but they will be there, and in good time.

Pah-tay....mules with thumbs......OMG!!!!! I realized after I replied that...."well, dummy, she told you why the guy was out there". Never, ever, ever, enter a fenced pasture for any reason :P

After temps in the 90's....it feels downright cold here today. I am NOT ready for fall to be here! I want more summerrrrrr <:whineface:> :(

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8, Yes, the bloodwork is confusing.   One has to be eating a sufficient amount of gluten (10 grams/day, about 5-6 slices of bread) in order for the antibody level to get high enough to be measured in the bloodstream.  If insufficient amounts of gluten are eaten, the the antibodies stay in the small intestines, hence the statement "tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet."  The bloodwork reflects anemia.  People with anemia can have false negatives on tTg IgA tests because anemia interferes with antibody production.  Diabetes and Thiamine deficiency are other conditions that may result in false negatives.  Anemias, B12 deficiency, iron deficiency, Thiamine deficiency and gastritis are common in undiagnosed Celiac disease.    The DGP IgG antibody test should be given because your daughter is so young.  Many young people test positive on DGP IgG because their immune systems are not mature and don't produce IgA antibodies yet.  Your daughter has several alleles (genes for Celiac disease).   Your daughter needs to be checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Iron (ferritin) B12, Vitamin D, Thiamine and Vitamin A should be checked.   Were any biopsies taken during the endoscopy? Keep us posted on your progress.  
    • knitty kitty
      The intestinal tract can be as long as twenty-two feet long, so intestinal damage may be out of the reach of endoscopy tools.  Some people have had more success with capsule endoscopy, but this method cannot take biopsies.  
    • knitty kitty
      @Jack Common, It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/ For clarification, the weight of your slice of bread is not equal to the amount of gluten in it.   Gluten helps form those big holes in breads, so breads like thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads contain more gluten than cakes and cookies.  
    • knitty kitty
      Sorry about that link.  It was meant for a different post.   Do consider taking high dose Vitamin D in order to get your level up to around 80 nm/l quickly.   This is the level where Vitamin D can properly work like a hormone and can improve the immune system and lower inflammation.  It makes a big difference.   I took high dose Vitamin D and really improved quickly.  I ate Vitamin D supplements throughout the day like m&ms.  My body craved them.  Very strange, I know, but it worked.   Before you have surgery, you really need to improve your vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins A and D, Vitamin C and Niacin are extremely important to skin health and repair.  Without these, the body does not repair itself neatly.  I've got a scar worthy of a horror movie.  My doctors were clueless about nutritional deficiencies. A sublingual Vitamin B12 supplement will work better for boosting levels.  Tablets or liquid drops in the mouth are easily absorbed directly into the blood stream.   Do bear in mind that about half of Celiac people react to the protein in dairy, Casein, the same as they react to gluten because segments of the protein in Casein resembles segments of the protein Gluten.  Some people lose the ability to produce lactase, the enzyme that digests Lactose, the sugar in dairy, as they age.  Others lose the ability to produce lactase because the intestinal Villi become damaged during the autoimmune response against gluten, and damaged chili can't produce lactase.   Do try Benfotiamine.  It has been shown to improve gastrointestinal health and neuropathy. Keep us posted on your progress!
    • ABP2025
      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.
