Wow! Probably a blessing in disguise that you had to carry your lunch around with you. You could get lost and wander for hours;)

I went to the doctor yesterday and I have pneumonia. My doctor said if I get worse I have to be hospitalized. After being in Yale for a week I'll do anything to prevent it. I swear I'm a germ magnet. I just need to be well by the 18th when we see Springsteen. Hell, I'll go even if I'm sick. I had a friend coming to visit this weekend and I had to cancel. Not contagious but too lethargic to have company.We've been watching the remastered Toy Story and it's worth it just for the bonus material.

Hope you all are well.

Hugs,

Loey

P.S. I need to get my psillie back!!!!!

There are stories swirling about something rather distracting happening in Gnick's neck o' the woods right now..... . ....I tell ya, it had better be something BIG to excuse this forgetting of Psilly duty.....

Nice to see you LoLo. Work on getting better! :)

I dinna ken where me silly is. Been chicken whackin'. Well, turkey whackin'. Mulberry ended up with just the one fluffball, other three eggs not fertile. When she started taking her out of the cage, Drumstick was delighted with this tasty looking morsel running around the yard! So I've been chasing the turkey away from the fluffball. Poor Mulberry's too scared of Drumstick to do much more than squawk. Anyways. Today there was eyeballing, but no baby attacks. Maybe DS is finally cluing in.

Seuss's foot seems OK so far.

Random stuff from the early days. :P

When I go bald, I'll just comb my mullet foward....

I wanted a Barbie Doll and a maxi coat. I did have the 64 Crayola box with the sharpener--always hated to use them--they all looked so perfect and new at the start of the school year.

I have a Silly Putty story--one Sunday morning when I was maybe 7, everyone was getting ready for church. I decide to try to try transferring the Sunday comics onto my Silly Putty (like they did on TV). So I'm laying on the living room rug, and flatening the putty to get it ready. Trouble is, I'm pressing it into the carpet while doing this--*and it dosen't come up* :o

Suffice it to say the parents were not happy with me--thank goodness we had to get to church.... :unsure:

Of course, that ended the stuff in the house :(

Sorry kids, hate to break your hearts... but in 2007 I lost my job (sorta told the boss off and walked out kind of losing), and when I finally found a new job, they asked me to cut my hair.... mullet is gone.

AAAARGH!!!! I had a reply written and ready to go and by mistake left the page and the reply disappeared. Anyway you brought back really nice memories of silly putty. I wonder how old it is. We watched Toy Story the other night and I wonder how the silly putty could fit in. Perhaps give orders to the soldiers. Any other ideas?

I had a somewhat psilly thing happen (I'm learning I have to find humor in everything or I'd be depressed all of the time).I had been taking a nap and had to go to the bathroom. I was really dizzy and I know I should have waited but I didn't. Anyway I fell off the toilet onto my face. My wig will cover the bruises on my fathead (oops, meant far-head) but I'll need make-up for my chin.Superman was at the gym so he couldn't have saved me.The moral of the story is that if you're dizzy sit for a few minutes before going to the bathroom.

Today I go to the Pain Management Clinic. They use physiology instead of the routine tests. They also use different modalities of treatment I hope that I can have the treatments done where I live because the doctor is in New Haven (an hour away). On the letter that came with the forms in bold it said: no prescriptions will be given at the first appointment - I guess it's to rule out the people who are just looking for pills. Anyway, wish me luck. I'm a mess between the pneumonia, staph infection (thank God it seems to be clearing up) and falling on my face but I won't let anything get me down!!!

I hope this finds you all doing well and finding things for your tickle bone. It's nice to finally catch up on the posts (usually at 3 AM).

Love,

Loey

Happy to hear our favorite rooster is doing OK. Sorry to hear Loey got dizzy and fell. Especially grateful to hear Victor no longer has a mullet.

We are on vacation in the Monterey CA area. We kayaked this morning and saw lots of seals, otters, birds and more large jelly fish than you could imagine. J and Hub are napping, M is doing his summer math homework, and he and I are watching some Olympics.

There are fresh fruit & veggie stands everywhere. The strawberries are soooooo good.

Oh no! M just put down the math and laid down! I'm the only one awake!

What she said :P

Got through the first week of school. Still waiting for e-mail, mailbox and keys.

Whew! I'm pooped! Haven't had to navigate stairs at work for a few years. :o Thighs and butt are looking good and feeling the burn! ;)

      For years, I have dealt with various gluten related symptoms like stomach pains, bloating, IBS-C "ish" digestive issues, low iron, low Vit D, joint pains, brain fog, and more. I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac...

      Does Kroger Offer Affordable Gluten-Free Options?

      Kroeger has quite a few Gluten free items. Right now they are redoing my Kroeger store and are adding everything into the regular sections. Since this was done some new ones have been added. Publix and Ingles also have great selections. I actually shop Walmart and Food City to since prices on some items vary from store to store.

      Neurologic symptoms - Muscle Twitching and Hand Tremors

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense.

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got...

      I’m so sorry you’re going through this—it sounds like you’ve been on a really challenging journey with your health. Your symptoms (stomach pains, bloating, low iron, joint pain, brain fog, etc.) do sound like they could be related to gluten sensitivity or another condition like non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). It’s interesting that your bloodwork hasn’t shown celiac markers, but the lymphocytosis in your duodenum could still point to some kind of immune response or irritation, even if it’s not classic celiac disease. The fact that your symptoms improved when you went gluten-free but returned when you reintroduced gluten (especially with the donut incident) is a pretty strong clue that gluten might be a trigger for you. It’s also worth noting that symptoms can be inconsistent, especially if your body is still healing or if there are other factors at play, like stress, cross-contamination, or other food intolerances. Do you have more info about your blood test results? Did they do a total IGA test as well?

I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac red flags in bloodwork IGA tests. WIll be following up soon with GI Dr, but so far, my symptoms are intermittent. I go back and forth with gluten-free diet (especially this past year.... did two tests where the stomach pains I had went away without gluten in diet. HOWEVER, I added it back a third time and I didn't get the pains)   Anyway, I am so confused and scared to eat anything now because I recently had a few bites of a yeasty donut and I immediately got so sick. Any thoughts??

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got annual CMP screenings as part of my benefits. The liver enzymes were continually elevated and creeping up every year, though they were never super high. My primary care doc had no clue. I got really worried as your liver is pretty important. I finally made an appointment with a GI doc myself and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive. That was in about 1996. After going on a gluten-free diet for three months the liver enzymes were back in normal range. Another lab that had gotten out of whack that has not returned to normal is albumin/total protein which are always a little on the low side. I don't know what that's about, if it's related to the liver or something else like leaky gut syndrome. But my doctors don't seem to be worried about it. One thing to realize is that celiac disease can onset at any stage of life. There is a genetic component but there is also an epigenetic component. That is, the genetic component is not deterministic. It only provides the potential. There needs also to be some health or environmental stressor to activate the latent gene potential. About 40% of the population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually do.
