Well, once again I have missed the Big Show from Oahu. Got into the store about a quarter to twelve, got the laptop set up, tried to connect to the beach camera about five to, and it would not load and Firefox crashed. Tried again, and Firefox did an encore performance. Tried to restart Windows, but it hung and did not shut down. Phinally pressed and held "power off" and rebooted cold, and it is working, but Jess is long gone. :angry: :angry: :angry:

Leeesa, exciting news!

Wah! I missed it. Dumb computer. Dumb selph! :ph34r:

Will Alexis be a wee-silli? :D

Why do we live in the midwest? Because we don't want to be swallowed up by a huge sunami, or slidden into the sea. That's a phact!

Later. I have got to buy a heater. Because I live in the MIDWEST. Or am I in the mid east? Or, am I in one of the mid-Atlantic states? Where am I?

Then refreshed. Jess was gone but saw a guy walk through talking on his phone and he waved also . . . I'm pretty sure he was waving to us, too.

OMG. . . . ........You are right, he WAS waving at us, as well. . . .......I just know it. It must have been another Psilly.

Ptaoughmghmn? Are you down in Hawaii?

.....Perhaps it was the Jester. Was he staggering?

YAY!!! Alexis is coming!! :):)

As I walked away a passing woman smiled and said I looked like I was having fun. I explained about the camera and she starting laughing and said 'I just thought you were nuts'.

Gad....you mean, few people who walk by there know about the camera aimed at them? Hell, glad I am not strolling obliviously past that monument.......I'd be pickin' my nose er digging my shorts outta me bum, fer sure..... . . ... :lol:

T'is so dark today I don't think it was worth the sun gettin' out of bed <_<

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Same here, and I don't think he's even gonna boffer, might get drownded :o And they are even mentioning the "S" word WIH? T'is nearing the end of October. Think of the poor wee lambies, forevvins sake :huh:

On another note........

We may be meeting wee Alexis soon! :D

Yay, Leesa, a happy event...nanahood :D

'I just thought you were nuts'.

:rolleyes::lol: She may be right, ya know. I was all tucked up in me bed and missed ya :( , but how many peeps would make a fool of theirselphsthe effort to do this??

Because I live in the MIDWEST. Or am I in the mid east? Or, am I in one of the mid-Atlantic states? Where am I?

I always thought US defininitions of midWEST were absolutely crazy :P Ohio to me is in the midEAST, and Kansas is in the midDLE, and Utah is in the midWEST and Alaska is the west (and also the Antarctice). Regardless what ye call it though, Sluzan, best get thee a heater fast if ye don't live in Florida :lol:

Psills, I just went to the funeral of my 97 year-old aunt, the last of my mother's family (all ten of them) and fully compus mentus and still avidly supporting the local rugby team, and whilst I was gone the last of my father's family (six of them) died too (at 92, the baby :o ) So that means my parents' entire generation is gone :huh: It feels such a loss, somehow, because although I am left with what started out as 42 first cousins, we don't have anything in common any more and they seem (and are) total strangers :blink::unsure: to me. Thank goodness one can choose one's phriends..... :)

I'm so sorry about your aunt, Shroomie. I know what you mean about the cousins, though. I haven't seen some of mine since I was a kid, and even the others I don't really have anything in common with either. The years go by and one day you look up and so much has changed......

This is so poignant, Shroomie... . . ......the last of a generation. But wow, what great genetic markers you have within you! All those dear relatives living into their nineties.... . . . ......right commendable! :)

Sounds so much like my own. My Dad in among the youngest in a very large family, and many of them are still going (his family seemed to have longevity....or maybe they all just seemed old when I was a kid). One of my sisters is tossing about the idea of family reunion (we used to do this when "us" were young...but not in many, many years), and is having a good time trying to track down "the cousins" (also 40 something...I forget how many). Could be a heck of a crowd if it can be pulled off...a lot of us not only have chilluns..but gran'chilluns, too....and we are all over the country!

Nana Kurley.....she'll be here in her own good time....just hope she doesn't keep y'all waitin tooooo long! How's the mama feeling?

Hey, gang!

Did Jyesss say she was flying home today? Cannot recall.. . ......man, I was looking at our globe, and did not realize until now how incredibly far away from all civilization those group of islands are.... . ..in the middle of the Pacific. I think Hawaii is actually closer to Japan than to the States!

Just threw a questionable-looking rump roast into trusty crockpot. Come six o'clock, I am hoping for a delectable, beefy masterpiece. Hope it does its magic!

Mornin all :D

Em.....I'm sure yer roast will be delectable--I swear you could throw an old shoe in a crock pot, add some onions, cook all day and it would be a meal :lol: The ole crock tease is pure magic :lol:

Lee-sa....how's the baby watch? Anything happen overnight?

Sills--I'm sore in places I didn't know I had :o Last night we started putting an epoxy finish on the garage floor.....what a production! We had to etch it first (did this on Sunday) and then wash. By last night it was dry, so we mixed up the first batch of the stuff and ended up getting the floor about 2/3 done. All the edging is done (by moi) and it really looks incredible.

We'll finish it up tonight, and since we have the apartment till the end of the month we won't have to park on it for almost 2 weeks. Today, I have more packing to do.....every time we go over there, we load up the car.

Does Jess go home today? How cool was seeing her yesterday? :D:D

Another beautiful day here--got me winders open B)

Man I missed a lot. Not paying attention to the date of Jyess's show, I was excited that it's approaching 9am, but alas, that was yesterday wasn't it, and now I'm depressed I missed the phun!

We were at the beach all weekend. 16 family members sharing one house and a freezer-full of booze. Needless to say, I didn't do much yesterday AT ALL. Thank God for rain, couldn't bear to look at the sun <_< My children learned a colorful new set of words, mostly revolving around the "F" word. I had to have multiple chats with them about appropriate language--sooooo praying ds doesn't drop an f-bomb at school today...... :huh:

Sorry about the lay-off's Sleoozin and Leeza, I hope things turn around quickly.

Happy to see everyone is on the mend!

This reminds me of the time my two kids, around ages five and two, were downstairs arguing. Jack, only just beginning to talk in sentences, was giving Sophie regular hell for stepping on his Lego, or knocking his tower down.... . . . . ....I heard the yelling getting louder, back and forth, until Sophie suddenly screamed, "Oh, yah?? Well, EFF - YOO - KAY!!!"

When my older son was about 4, we were on a day trip with friends. The husband was good-naturedly teasing, and my son called him a "d%$#@#$bag" :lol:

The guy's mom was there and she very calmly looks over and said quietly "did he just say d%$#@#$bag? :lol::lol::lol:

I can laugh now--this had to be 25 years ago :P

Douchebag is such a great word!! :)

When my dd was 4, we had just returned home from dinner with my potty-mouthed father. She walked in the house, accidently dropped her bag down the stairs and I heard "sh*t" My husband froze at the sink. Thinking I couldn't possible have heard her correctly I said, "Madeleine, WHAT did you say?" She said, "sh*t!" I said (louder), "What did you say?" Louder yet she said. "SH*T" Yelling now, I said "Madeleine Elizabeth WHAT DID YOU SAY?" yelling back now, annunciation every syllable, she said, "I----SAID---SH*T!!!!" My DH was doubled over at the sink laughing, and she turned the corner where I was and gave me a big smile, like, "you really wanted to know." I was trying so hard not to laugh while explaining to her papa has a foul mouth and she was not allowed to talk like him!!

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

I had topical dermatitis in certain areas, blepharitis (eyelids), and a patch of dermatitis herpetiformis on the back of my right-thumb area. I do believe that many people who have the genetic...

      Slow healing?

While your prior allergy tests didn't flag legumes, it's possible to develop a new allergy at any time. The symptoms you describe—extreme dizziness, racing heart, sweating, and itching—are consistent with a systemic allergic response, not just an intolerance. Given your history of celiac disease and tree nut allergies, your immune system is already predisposed to sensitivities. It is crucial to stop consuming green beans immediately and consult an allergist. They can perform more specific testing and may prescribe an epinephrine auto-injector for emergency use, as this type of reaction can be unpredictable and potentially escalate.

My dietitian told me that my diet looks absolutely perfect and I can’t think of many possible ways to get cc as I am very strict. However, when I did my check up gastroscopy a year later my healing only showed a slow improvement going from marsh 3b - 3a. Is this normal healing for a year? My main symtoms pre- diagnosis was joint/back pain, poor immune system and stomach problems (especially in the morning). Joint pain and the immune system improved almost instantly but the stomach problems still persist (but has gotten better). For reference I am a 21 year old male and both my ttg levels were normal after just 4 months and also the test for calkprotekin. My diet consists of 99% home cooked meals in a kitchen free from gluten.

      Issues before diagnosis

      By cristiana · Posted

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.
