I been caught!

Packing to switch hotels. Decided to say hi before closin' the 'puter.

My neighbors daughter works at IHOP here. I went in and asked to sit in her section. She walks up, looks completely mystified and says "....are....you....my......mother's.......neighbor.....?" I started laughing and she yelled OMG!!

It was fun. We hugged and chatted. She's going to school and plans to apply to nursing school when she finishes her pre-reqs. She was living on a different island but couldn't focus on her studies so she came to Waikik. She calls this her 'boot camp'. :o<_<

I knew y'all'd feel sorry for her.

Well, the summer that never was has come to a semi-official end here in Unionville. Today started with bright sunshine which has now turned into complete overcast. The forecast is rain for the next five days starting this evening, so....

We took down and stored the deck furniture for the season, and shut down and covered the air conditioner. This will, of course, mean the forecast is wrong and the next few days will be warm and sunny and deck friendly.

I have a pheeling that somefin momentous is in the air.

Many moons ago, me neighbor and I were taking Smackl (age 3?) to Dairy Queen. The freezer that was up front that held all the cakes and Dilly Bars and Buster Bars and Star Pops was empty because they were defrosting it/getting ready to clean it. Smackl always got a Dilly bar or a Star so of course my neighbor and I immediately go into "Oh No, it looks like they are all out" "I guess there won't be any treats for us today" . . . And Smackl says "Damnit!!" loud enough for the people working at the counter and the customer who's there. Red-faced I couldn't help but laugh and I noted that he got his "usage" perfect. The customer at the counter said "I'm glad that kind of thing happens to other people, too".

When the time comes, we need to have that Hawaiin real-time webcam set up in the delivery room for a really special synchronized Psilly get-together.. . . . ........ :D

:lol::unsure::ph34r:

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

Nada

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:

According to my mother, my first attempt at profanity as a wee child was....

...ready?.....

G*d-damm!t-sh!t-to-He!!

Jess- I love you but I hate you!

DITTO! <_<:P

Very likely.....I believe I have come quite close, as some establishments don't know the difference between 'air conditioning' and 'REFRIGERATION"!!!!! :angry:

BTW....Here in the States, that would be Murphy's Law.

Lee-sa.....I see you down there--any news?

Nothin, yet, but Briana has decided to start her maternity leave.

Sealed lips don't work as well :ph34r: :ph34r:

Swim was fab. Whole body hurts, them waves is serious.

Moved to the Sheraton, luxurious, and yet designed for work. Got a desk, plugs, internet that works, air conditioner that doesn't drown out the passing trucks with it's rattle-

Only down side is that because I checked in early, they had to give me a room with an ocean view...

Now you can all feel sorry for me :D :D :D

Gotta finish my homework, due in a few hours.

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      @SaiP, Insomnia is listed as one of the side effects of Loratadine. Niacin B3 in the form Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9, Cobalamine B12, Magnesium, and Thiamine B 1 are needed to produce the sleep hormone melatonin. Insomnia can also be caused by low Vitamin D and low Vitamin A. A strict gluten free diet can be low in essential...

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      Earlier, you mentioned the possibility of adding in sweet potatoes. Have you tried that? Have you tried sourdough bread? Some people with celiac disease claim they can eat sourdough without a gluten reaction. The fermentation process alters the protein somewhat.

      Welcome to the forum, @Karen Chakerian! So, for the sake of clarity, you have self-diagnosed yourself as having celiac disease but are not officially diagnosed by medical testing. Is this correct?

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      I’m 70 years old and have RA for 25 years. I’d never had digestive issues or even heard of celiac until 2 months ago. 6 years ago I started having serious diarrhea, dropped what little weight I had, became very exhausted, developed rapid onset blood pressure and other symptoms. I went to the doctor for an unrelated matter and even with my records he ...

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Karen Chakerian, We need more information, please.   What homeopathic remedies or medications are you taking now?  Do you still have the blood pressure and other symptoms?  What is included in your diet currently?  Dairy? Oats?  Processed gluten free foods?  Vegetarian?  Other food allergies?  Do you take vitamins?  When gluten is removed from the diet, the body stops making the anti-gluten antibodies that are usually measured in blood tests used to diagnose Celiac disease.  To measure the anti-gluten antibodies, you would have to consume 10 grams of gluten (4-6 slices of bread or equivalent) per day for a minimum of 2 weeks or longer.   A DNA test which looks for the most common genes for Celiac Disease may be a less invasive avenue to pursue.  Has your doctor checked you for nutritional deficiencies? Glad you're here!

      @SaiP, Insomnia is listed as one of the side effects of Loratadine.   Niacin B3 in the form Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9, Cobalamine B12, Magnesium, and Thiamine B 1 are needed to produce the sleep hormone melatonin.  Insomnia can also be caused by low Vitamin D and low Vitamin A.   A strict gluten free diet can be low in essential  vitamins.   Gluten containing products are required to replace vitamins lost in processing and milling.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to have vitamins added.  White rice is not a good source of B vitamins.  Brown rice is little better.  Exposure to light (even grocery store lights) and heat (during transportation) can destroy B vitamins.   B vitamins are easily lost in urine and diarrhea because they are water soluble.  If you have had diarrhea longer than two weeks, you are probably low in B vitamins.  Fat based vitamins, like Vitamins D and A, can be low due to fat malabsorption in Celiac disease, too.   Damaged villa in Celiac Disease do not absorb B vitamins and fat based vitamins and minerals well.  Supplementing with essential nutrients while villi heal boosts the ability to absorb essential vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins are stored and utilized inside cells.  Blood levels are not accurate measurements of vitamin deficiencies.  You can have normal blood levels while having deficiencies inside cells.  The brain orders cells to release their stores so the brain and heart can keep functioning.  This results in normal blood levels, but vitamin deficits inside cells.   Your indulgence in a little bit of bread is providing some, but insufficient amounts, of vitamins needed to make sleep hormone melatonin while keeping your inflammation and histamine production high.   In addition to a B Complex, I took 1000 mg of tryptophan before bed to correct my insomnia caused by high histamine levels.  Correcting my Vitamin D level to between 75-100 nmol/ml helped as well.  Also Passion flower extract is helpful in falling asleep quickly.   Please stop eating gluten bread as this will keep your autoimmune response triggering and your antibody levels won't go down and your histamine levels will stay up as well.   Celiac is a marathon, not a sprint.  P.S. I wanted to reiterate that insomnia and weight loss are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  Thiamine is water soluble and nontoxic even in high doses.  High doses are needed to correct thiamine deficiency. All mitochondria in cells utilize thiamine.  The World Health Organization says to take 500 - 1000 mg per day of thiamine and look for health improvement.  Diets that are high in carbohydrates like rice and gluten require more thiamine.  For every 1000 calories from carbohydrates, we need 500 mg more thiamine.  Thiamine is found in meat.  Few veggies contain thiamine. Can you rise from a squat without assistance?  This is the field test for thiamine deficiency used by WHO.  If you cannot rise easily from a squat you may be thiamine deficient.

      By Karen Chakerian · Posted

      I’m 70 years old and have RA for 25 years. I’d never had digestive issues or even heard of celiac until 2 months ago.  6 years ago I started having serious diarrhea, dropped what little weight I had,  became very exhausted, developed rapid onset blood pressure and other symptoms. I went to the doctor for an unrelated matter and even with my records he told me they have ‘pills’ for all those things; which I turned down and sought to deal with this with homeopathic remedies.  Mid October 2024 my guts hurt terribly and started to swell. My massage therapist asked about celiac and I started to do research on it. It absolutely fits all the symptoms so I’ve been gluten free since 2 days before Thanksgiving but the huge gut persists. Thankfully the pain and cramps are gone. I look like a 90# pregnant skeleton.  I’m exhausted and looking for some encouragement from the tribe. I have good days and bad. I know living with an autoimmune disease sucks but this is even worse than the RA.
