Natch :lol:

You're too hip for me, woman! (I had to look this up :rolleyes::lol::lol: )

We have no idea--I think he headed northwest and hasn't been heard from since :lol:

He's living in my basement..... :unsure:

Who ever sits at parties?

What will Jesse go as? Or is the bubble costume for him? Did you see the other kid with the white George Washington wig?

What about going as Elmo & Katy Perry?

Russell Brandt & Katy Perry? (He does share a first name with you)

Brad & Angelina. Each carry a doll of different races.

:lol::lol::lol:

Ok, no sitting at parties.... but how's about in the car getting there....?

Have you seen the furry toes on Jess's new "cat"?

Rachelle - I know you can go as Patti & I. Or Maddie & Max. Last year we went to Hub's brother's Halloween party. Hub & bro look a lot alike. Hub went and got a KU sweatshirt (he went to rival MU) and wore his glasses instead of contacts - went as his brother. When we got there, his bro had on an MU shirt and was dressed as my Hub.

You're crackin me up lady!

<snort> Yea--and it's guaranteed no one there will be able to tell who you are! :P

:lol::lol:

Go as commercials from TV. I had a friend from work who went as Flo-the girl from the Progressive insurance commericials. Can Jesse pull off that Old Spice guy . . . who's riding a horse. Ummm,...got a horse?

My secretary went as Flo last year. This year she's taking our Dog/Beth costumes to Hawaii with her :lol:

Hmmmmm, got one of those horse on a stick things....

Hike the skirt up or wear shorts & a sports bra and a t shirt. When you get there off with the T and on with the bubble dress! (See, I have an answer for everything).

I have a little story to tell. I was trying to explain this to a co-worker and I was laughing so hard at the rediculousness of it all. This is a true story (unfortunately), my girlfriend thinks I should write a book :lol:

(Some names have been changed to protect the not-so-innocent)

Jim is my father, he married Terry, my mother, right before I was born

Jim cheated on Terry with my bother and sister's best friends' mother Sandy (I was her nanny while she was "in the gym" (or in the 'Jim' :huh::lol: ). I was 12

Terry divorced Jim

Terry married Stan and lived happily ever after--sooo not the end of the story... ;)

Jim married Lydia (Sandy got a divorce, got a nose job to try to escape her shame and has rarely been seen since)

Jim got busted for pot, Lydia divorced him

Jim started dating the following:

Tanya-alcoholic, weird

Teresa-missing teeth but super nice

Hannah-my age :huh:

He brought all of these ladies (seprately of course) to our family beach weekends--14-17 of us in 1 house and he brings random strangers he's 'in love' with.

--I walk in on Teresa topless in the kitchen

--Hannah refuses to talk to me

--Tanya is just DRUNK the whole time and won't SHUT UP!!!

FFW 6 months (last Thanksgiving)...

Jim is BFF's with JIM (name NOT changed!) and his wife--we'll call her Crazy

Right before Thanksgiving, JIM drives up into the woods, texts Jim one last time and blows a hole thru his heart with his gun

Christmas day, Jim and Crazy are at my grandma's and Crazy is calling nana, "Mom" and Jim, "Sweetheart" :huh:

New Years Eve-Jim is soooo overcome with emotion and love for Crazy that he gets down on 1 knee and proposes to her right then and there

--Since they have 2 witnesses there with them, Jim marries himself to Crazy right then and there (NO he can't really do that--but he did.....)

She calls my auntie right away to tell her the good news, auntie is P.O'd and tells Jim to call nana right away

FFW 4 months (Beach weekend)

Nana still doesn't know

I'm not supposed to know but auntie told me, cuz we're tight

My brother and sister don't know cuz I sure as heck wasn't going to tell them

Crazy busts into the room-already drunk before arriving- and tells everyone they're married

Brother is P.O'd, sister is upset, I've been drinking so I think its all Heeeelarious!

Crazy asks me to step outside with her and have a chat

--for 20 minutes she lectures me (or slurrrrrrs at me) about my relationship with my dad and how much she loves me and my kids (ummmm, first time I've met the freak), blah, blah, blah

--I tell her politely that it's none of her beeswax and that's that!

Crazy tells my dad that I took her outside and yelled at her and hated on her for 20 minutes :o

Everyone goes to bed, Crazy is passed out in her room

--at 2am she decideds to get up and have another beer, so she takes her beer and crawls in bed with my sister and her boyfriend and wants to chat. :blink:

--Think my sister coulda killed Crazy at this point

The next morning, Crazy skips out after breakfast and we don't see her again for the rest of the weekend :wacko:

Jim and I don't talk for a while after that

FFW 6 months

We're going to the beach this weekend

We're all scared about what's to come

Jim calls, says he's been sent out on a job in central Oregon

Jim and Crazy will not be going to the beach this weekend :D

THE END (for now.....)

      I understand your frustration about socializing while having celiac disease. I also have allergies to nuts, dairy, all forms of gluten including oats, strawberries and MSG. I get anxiety while grocery shopping and really take my time to read all labels. I always carry a magnifying glass with me wherever I go to read labels. Many products are labelled Gluten Free but contain Oats, and apparently this is becoming more common. I almost bought some gluten free flour but read that it contained oats. A certain percentage of Celiacs have this complication. I can’t help feeling offended and excluded when others act like I am being “high maintenance”. I am becoming better at being an advocate for myself.  I have had diverticulitis 3 times and each time hospitalized-once, the attending nurse didn’t know what celiac means-she had to research...  If others around me make comments I try to enlighten them, those who don’t get it are not my friends anymore. Be very careful about cross-contamination. I was sick recently for 10 days after a meal was contaminated while I was on holiday. If servers say they have gluten free buns or bread, ask if they use a toaster specifically reserved for gluten-free, or don’t chance it. On a positive note, I didn’t find out I had Celiac Disease until I was 60. Eating a gluten free diet means no more terrible headaches, hives, rashes, intestinal bloating and irregularity, Gastro Intestinal Reflux….when I follow a strict diet and mostly always eat at home, I feel great! I also weeded out “friends” who weren’t worth being around.

      Thank you, Trents- are there any safe alternatives?

      I agree with @trents, it's not typical for gluten exposure to cause symptoms as delayed as a week or two after ingestion. In most cases, reactions to gluten occur within hours to a few days, depending on individual sensitivity and how much gluten was consumed. The delayed symptoms you describe—stomach cramping in the mornings and flaky stool—might suggest that something else is contributing to your discomfort. Cross-contamination is a common challenge, especially when dining out, and it's great that you're doing your best to stay gluten-free. However, the inconsistency of your symptoms and the long delay between exposure and reaction could warrant further investigation. It's possible that another gastrointestinal condition, such as IBS, a food intolerance, or a reaction to something else in your diet, might be contributing to your symptoms. You might consider keeping a detailed food and symptom diary to identify potential patterns or triggers. Additionally, consulting your gastroenterologist could provide clarity. They may suggest testing to rule out other issues, such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), microscopic colitis, or other sensitivities. If you suspect cross-contamination is a significant issue, you could also ask for follow-up bloodwork (e.g., tTG-IgA) to check if your antibodies are elevated, which might indicate ongoing gluten exposure.
