She said she started putting her makeup on and suddenly spit out 'Good God what happened???' She had no idea where all that droopy, wrinkly skin came from.

Happens to me when I pull out the magnification mirror to pluck me eyebrows. Woah :unsure: I try and do that as quick as possible and put the dang mirror the heck away <_<

One of the reasons I resisted wearing glasses for so long. The world, when viewed through a soft focus of myopia, is a much prettier place.

Muffin top here, which hubby says is just loose skin......I dunno. If I wear pants loose enough not to create the muffin top, I can't keep my pants up.(Lost me bum somewheres, so no help there) If I wear pants tight enough to keep them up. I get muffin top <_< ........oh, and flabby, wrinkly arms. Even me belly button is wrinkly :(

Ah Lees-augh....was it Joan Rivers who said that at some point a woman has to choose between her butt and her face? :lol: They both can't look their best at the same time :P

I have all this extra skin that I'm too aftraid to have cut off, so it hangs over my pants, it looks like there was too much liquid in my muffin mix <_<:lol:

I was laying on my side the other day and my ds saw my belly, he looked shocked and said "what is that?" I said it was my belly button. He didn't look convinced since you couldn't actually see where the belly button was, so I said, look what happens when I lay on my back--TaDaaaa, there it was. He said, "Mommy, you should always lay on your back!" <_<:rolleyes:

Wow.. . . ...POeter didn't do a good enough job on the vacuuming, so Jacquie's put his balls in the oven... . . . ... ......wow, I knew there was some subtle kind of don't-mess-with-me aura about Jacquie when I met you two, but man, she don't mess around, do she?? :lol:

Ugh... . . . my body when supine. ... . .......not a whole lot better than when it is vertical, I fear. Hmm... . .....perhaps we all should ask for one o' THESE in our stockings this year...

Well, after she got them all heated up they needed to cool off, so now they are in the freezer.

What in h*** would I do with THAT??????!!!!!! :rolleyes:

PeOters balls!!!!!! :lol:

Never get tired of hearing about them!

Peter is more in the dark than usual. Power went out on us a few minutes ago. My notebook is running on battery power, and the modem and router are running on battery backup too. Jacquie is calling the power company to report the problem.

The forecast for tomorrow morning's commute is snow. This will be the first fall of the season, and even though we get snow every year here, everybody forgets how to drive in snow over the summer. So not looking forward to driving to work in the morning.

My balls have been repackaged and are resting comfortably in the (temporarily inoperative) freezer.

curlyfries Contributor

PETER!!!!

Sounds like you're in for a c-c-c-cold night!.......balls and all!!!!!

Man, this is SO true. The first big blast of snow here (tomorrow and the next day -- 20 cm comin') brings out the same drivers among whom I travel all year, but they are suddenly new people... .. . .. ..unable to keep safe distances, all space perception gone, handling their vehicles like they's on rough, dry pavement.... . . .....GAH.

Off to the orthodontist this am. Jack popped a bracket off at the bowling lanes on Friday evening, and has been living all weekend with a loose wire sticking into his back gum. DH has a fantastically impressive collection of tools -- screwdrivers galore, every size and weight of hammer one can imagine, huge and tiny wrenches, and an amazing mix of pliers and cutters, from the teeny models used for.. . ..crap, I canna imagine -- fixing eyeglass hinges, I suppose. . ......to those for screwing in jet engine parts.

Do you think he has ONE needle-nosed cutter, out of the nine that are hanging in the tool room, that can reach and cut off this li'l wire in The Ripper's mouth? <_<:rolleyes:

So the poor kid had to go the weekend sticking gum back there, candle wax etc., to cover the wire end. He apparently grabbed the nails scissors at one point and managed to bend it downwards a little. Excellent work. B)

Must look for a tenth little wire cutter that would do this job, and put it in DH's stocking. Or Jack's... ..

jerseyangel Proficient

Be careful out there, Canadian phriends :D Did you get yer power back, Peoter? Balls still frozen? B)

Poor The Ripper--can nae imagine the torture of having a wire constantly poking in me mouth :(

Not much new here--starting me last week in Joisey. Will be over-seeing a new toilet installation this week :rolleyes: We went over to my older son's house Saturday night and helped trim the tree. :D

Instead of buying a house, me thinks we should have 2 apartments. One here and one in Houston. :lol:

Pseriously.....

psawyer Proficient

Power came back in the middle of the night. My balls are still frozen. The expected snow has not yet arrived, and traffic was light coming to the store this morning.

Psillies . . . a terribly unpsillie thing (at least today it is unpsillie) . . . an early Christmas present for Skeeter . . . the school nurse called and . . . someone has given her head lice. I have spent the last three hours combing through her hair (she's got very thick hair) after I cut about half of it of myself as the hair cut place would nae take her. I understand this but the poor child has lice AND a hair cut from her mother and I haven't even take the kids' Christmas picture yet!!!

As if I don't already have enough laundry to do . . . I'm now off to launder every single thing in this house that will fit in the washing machine.

Jeepers, sorry Jan-it :( Poor wee Skeeter--you've got yer work cut out for ya. Somehow we managed to escape lice, but I know people who have had to deal with it--what a pain.

Jyagh-nutt! Oh, that's just heinous. . .. .....and what abysmal timing..... . . . :(:angry:

Nope, nuttin' psilly about that. AND a mommy-haircut - - the poor kid. <_<

. . . she says she likes it . . . I always thought she looked better with a bit shorter hair. The curl in her hair helps hide the choppiness.

My head hurts.

Googling tells me it tends to be more of a girl thang . . . what wif the long hair . . . just two girls leaning in to look at the same book wif hair touching will do it, let alone sharing a comb or brush or trying on each others headbands or barettes. Smakl rarely tries on any of his phriends headbands.

GoOoOod morning, Psills!

How's the treatment going, J? I, as well, have managed to avoid the lice household infestation -- amazing, sometimes, as my young nephew and niece had them and we were all fraternizing, and a couple of class infestations have happened throughout the years.

Perhaps I have rubbed off my mysterious physiological bug repellent on me kids. For whatever the reason, I am NEVER bitten or bothered by mosquitos, no-see-ums, deerflies, etc. They will be swarming around others, and I barely have to swat any away. :huh:

Actually, now that I've written that out and read it, it really is quite strange.

If I were self-conscious and had significant self-esteem issues, I could see this making me crazy.

:huh:

:lol:

I have wondered about attributing it to the diabetes.. . . .....perhaps it makes my blood smell weird er sumfin'.

Hell, why aren't there wasps all around me, attracted by the corn syrup??

We wanna pic of Skeeter in her new 'do!

jerseyangel Proficient

Mornin' all B)

Interesting about the stinky blood, Em :P Ya never know.....I meselph am not bothered much by bugs/bugbites either. Mark, on the other hand, has gotten Lyme Disease from a tick and is severly allergic to bee stings (the sevarity of which may be lessened by 5 years of immunotherapy).

Am coming down wif a cold, compliments of son #1 and girlfriend <_< Me throat pheels like it's on phire :o Glad I did all the painting I wanted to do last week! :D

Jan-it....how's the laundry comin? :P

      @Scott Adams Recently got blood work back and TTG antibodies went from 168.8 to 16.7 and deaminated gliadin was 22 (was not measured the first time). Is this a good start for an 11 month time frame? Just having a hard time with why my symptoms seemed to be flaring up again when my blood work has improved. 
    • dublin555
      I’ve been through something similar recently, and I know how frustrating it can be when nothing seems to work. Based on what you’ve described, it might be worth considering dermatitis herpetiformis, especially with the family history of celiac disease. Testing could give you some answers, and while online kits aren’t as reliable as a GP, they’re a good start if appointments are hard to get. I also found relief through medical cannabis for my eczema, at Releaf, a clinic in the UK that offers eczema medical cannabis treatment. They start with a low dose, adjust weekly, and track progress through online consultations.

      Welcome to the forum, @Jaylan! Almost all of the symptoms and medical conditions you describe have been found to be associated with celiac disease. But they can also be caused by other things as well. There certainly is enough circumstantial evidence in your list of medical problems to warrant being tested for celiac disease. Ask your physician to order a celiac panel consisting of, at the very minimum, these two blood antibody tests: total IGA and tTG-IGA. Please do not attempt to limit your gluten intake before the blood draw is taken or you will invalidate the testing. Incidentally, celiac disease is often misdiagnosed as IBS.
    • Jaylan
      Hi there!  I’ve recently been tested for celiac disease, along with other autoimmune diseases. My symptoms started back in 2018 with joint pain in my knees. Since then, it has progressively worsened. I now have joint pain in both knees, elbows, and sometimes my shoulders. The pain is almost unbearable. I feel so stiff in the mornings, and this stiffness can last the whole day. I also experience swelling and warmth around those areas.   Other symptoms include IBS (diagnosed at age 16), restless legs, chest pain, tiredness, miscarriages, bloating, and sharp pain on the right side of my stomach. In the past, I’ve also had problems with a vitamin D deficiency, and my serum folate levels recently came back very low.   My question is: How likely is it that I have celiac disease?
