Sarah? Is today when your mom gets news/results?

I thought we'd be hearing something, but no. They want her to come in Thursday to have her stitches removed (they took slices instead of a punch biopsy this time,) and I think we'll get the results then. I've got to see if my MIL can watch the boys so I can go with Mom.

I made a corn and black bean salad to go with dinner tonight, and it turned out really good! (Brian, of course, heated it up and dumped it on rice. :rolleyes: ) I think I need to write down what I did. I kinda winged it, and I'll never remember if I don't write it down. :lol:

I"LL TAKE YER RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish I had some to give ya, Susie........I want some rain to get rid of this oppressive, thick, heavy, wet, steaming air. :droopyboilinghotface:

I was wondering if we'd hear news of your mom, Sarah. Waiting's tough, I'm sure. :( We'll be here for you!

Great llama pic, Ptaoughmghmn!. Actually, I've just realized that I may have looked an awful lot like a llama before I got off gluten...... .. contented, sleepy, long-toothed.... .. . :lol:

Tomorrow's Father's Day! Dinner with my dad, and my children's dad (uh....that would be DH....) Should be a nice day. :)

The Ripper's team could end up in first. It looked like they were going to lose today because they had someone else as third-base coach, not waving them forward or home in close, risky play. I walked over to the coach in the last inning and said, "We need five runs. Now. You need to put me over at third". So, he did. And I had them tearing to third base, stretching out doubles with terrified looks on their faces, sliding crazily into home, desparate and scared.....

So, we got the five runs. Jack said to me afterwards, "You are crazy, Mom. But uh, I guess.... thanks".... :lol:

Lots of rain up in Moose Jaw, Ryan? We just keep threatening, here.. .. ..heavy humidity, like we're going to get pounding rain, and it never happens to give us some relief. Ptaoughmghmn, I want yer dry, arid 100 degrees! Trade 'ja!

Yes..We've had over 3 inches of rain in the last week or so...most of that in the last 24 hours or so. I am glad the sun came out, but we've now had thunderstorms ALL day. It's getting a little old. :)

Happy Fathers Day to all the Silly Dads out there.

Happy Father's Day to all of the Sillyville dads and to all the dads of Sillyville residents!

We visited with Ryan's dad this morning and then I'm having my dad and grandpa (as well as Colin) over for super tonight! Then we'll probably all play some fun Nintendo Wii!

Ain't it the WORST? Cannot believe the sweat that I generate simply by walking around dusting and tidying..... Yuck.

:lol::lol: poison oak dollar store tie

Very phunnee... .. .I of course was thinking of you, Susie, when The Ripper insisted on this tie for his dad. Jack being Jack, I told him what these pretty, orange-red leaves grouped in threes all over this tie looked like, as I knew he would find it fascinating. Well, he spent some time on google reading all about poison oak. This is what I now am privileged to know about this classification of plants (and what Jack wanted me to tell you, Susie):

The infamous rash one gets from poison oak is from the oil on the leaves called urushiol, meaning "lacquer" in Japanese....

Only 1 nanogram (billionth of a gram) of the oil is needed to cause a severe rash.....

1/4 ounce of urushiol is all that is needed to cause a rash in every person on earth.....

Isn't that all just fascinating? :rolleyes::D

Happy Father's Day to all the silly dad's and dhs and dads of sillies :D

Tis a beautiful day here but it's going to be hot! I'm having to get my Svenning out of the way earlier and earlier with the heat

The Ripper is just a wealth of information!

So much to learn here in the Silly thread. Fun, useful, and sometimes useless, facts :lol::lol:

Yes, Alex so nice to put a face to the name!

<_< Oh, I know all of this already. Tell Yon Ripper that to FULLY experience the joys of the demon weed, one must contract it, be highly susceptible to it, and then suffer its burning, exploding, itching-like-the-devil, PAINFUL, swolt-up KNIVES ON ONE'S SKIN, lingering-for-weeks-or-months oozing blisters and purple-welted diabolitry to fully appreciate its joys........ :angry::angry:

and DO tell The Ripper that this urushiol is active and toxic even on DEAD PLANTS for up to five years. <_< And that in California, victims can actually receive workman's comp for it......it's THAT painful and debilitating.

I'm not even going to Last Chance on David's two upcoming July trips - can't risk it. :(:angry: (but I can BET you all that I'll actually get it just from coming in contact w/ Kissey when he returns :blink: )

Mygawd, Llama Lady....there is much to learn, here. But do not be afraid. Most importantly, do not scurry away! I don't think any of us can tell you the reasons behind our PH's for F's, our compulsory Commonwealth spelling, our license taken with proper name spelling.....these things have simply....happened......

Um.....it's a pertinent and fascinating question to ponder - - whether or not llamas can be afflicted with gluten intolerance - - but there is, really, a more pressing question:

Do llamas have anal glands? :huh::huh:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

OMG - that is PHUNNY! LlamaLady is a phearless contributor to our wackl thread, adn bold enough to ask questions, rather than run away askeert, confused llama tail betwixt legs! :lol:

LL, we started w/ psilly spellings eons ago...........but I"m not sure why. Um, we're pretty wacky, and it just seemed phunnier to us, somehow.

we spell many things in goofy ways, such as Tom - his name has become Ptaum (short version) or Pthaughoughm (variations therein) - Welsh version. And yes, we made that up. :lol:

We use the word wackl a lot, and that is because I was trying to use the wacko face ----> :wacko: and instead of typing that correctly, I put in :wackl: and it suited us, so it stayed.

We always use British (Commonwealth, as Em said) spellings for words that contain the superflous u, and we capitalize said U:

flavoUr

coloUr

tumoUr

and - superfluous O:

cOelic

anOemia

Um........just run wif it. It's phun :lol: and psilly :wacko: and makes no sense. :P

There are many more nuances to our spelling and words, but truth be told, we're juts plain NUTS, and we crack ourselves up........most people around here are pretty scared of us, though, we don't mind that. :lol: In fact we are rather pleased wtih our self-proclaimed reputation as naughty stepchildren :lol:

But - as nutty as we are - and we are truly barking mad - - we keep up w/ each other's daily lives, pretty much, and really do care about each other. :wub: We welcome newcomers, as well - the more sillies, the better.

Happy Dad's Day to silly dads, silly's dads etc!!!!

Hey nice new avs! :)

- only the sound has to be off or Weezee goes crazy.....

Heehee

(& a lil :( )

Tom - where's Tom? Have the smoky skies obfuscated you from our view? was thinking of you on brothers' birthdays.......

Awwwww thx :)

It WAS weird how much smoke came up from the 'Indians Fire', from WAY down in southern monterey county.

Not sure how you'd know that .. .good guess?

. .. so I hope to get a chance to teach my dd how to ride her new bike,

Yeah that's a biggie i'n't it? ;)

I walked over to the coach in the last inning and said, "We need five runs. Now. You need to put me over at third".

LOVE this Em!!! :lol:

So, he did. And I had them tearing to third base, stretching out doubles with terrified looks on their faces, sliding crazily into home, desparate and scared.....

So, we got the five runs. Jack said to me afterwards, "You are crazy, Mom. But uh, I guess.... thanks".... :lol:

Way to coach, coach!!!!!!! :D

Tel is so totally crack-whipped

<_<

why do people spell with a ph? like phunny, phather's day, phamily?

I'm having trouble remembering how that started . ..was it pre-phaerie?

the temprature here in llama land is a brisk 78 degrees and sunny, and the llamas are running happy and free as they munch on corn silage from a gluten-free factory.

Now just where IS llamallady's llama lland? Gnu Mexico? :snicker:

Yep . . . there she goes . . . did anybody keep track of how long Emily lasted before she had to ask llamalady an anal gland question?? You know, next time we have someone join our thread, we should start a pool.

      @EricaFilpi, please tell us more about your recovery...did you need to take iron infusions or supplements? What other supplements are you taking? I'll assume you've been gluten-free since August.
    • joleenrae
      We have been tested and tested negative. But we have not done the gene testing.

      So true, @trents, I was a skeptic myself!  
    • trents
      Although I disagree with interjecting the element of dermatitis herpetiformis since this is not a real issue for the OP, I think Rogo72 gives good advice about how to navigate social situations as a celiac when finding yourself in unsympathetic company. It requires developing somewhat of a tuff skin and holding your ground in order to be safe. The psychology of these situations is that family and friends try to make you as the celiac feel that you have a mental problem rather than a medical one. The fact is, they are the ones with the mental problem (ignorance and arrogance). It helps to avoid the brow beatdown to reframe it in that sense. But at the same time you must avoid the temptation to develop bitterness toward them which will destroy relationships. Rise above that and keep this one issue in its place so that it doesn't commandeer the whole of the relationships involved. As I mentioned above, I'm sure we can all remember times when we misjudged others because we were ignorant of the facts. One thing that sometimes happens in the celiac social experience is when some of those who were skeptical and critical of a celiac friend or family member find out they themselves have celiac disease. Boy, how that can change their attitude! And keep in mind, some studies have shown that almost 50% of the first degree relatives of those with celiac disease will themselves develop celiac disease. So, @sillyyak52, you may have the last laugh!

      Hey SicilyGirl, I feel your pain, I am 51 and was diagnosed in August with Celiac and actually had to have iron transfusions because my iron was so low. I never had energy, going to one store wiped me out, it was horrible. Then the weirdest thing happened two weeks ago, I realized I had energy when I was talking on a phone and moving heavy Christmas boxes around like they were nothing, and then I ran off to make dinner. Talk to your doctor about your concerns and give yourself some grace.
