Morning Sillies-

Aww Em, the first day of school!!!

Bev- hope the PICC is much better.

Oh yes, back to work today, I am enjoying it.....nope thats a lie :) But I am only here today and tomorrow and then off. We were going to go to the beach Thursday into Friday but we might just do a day trip there, I am not sure yet. It would save us some money and give us daylight time to look for a house. Our mortgage appt is tomorrow night but if we could get in tonight we are going to go tonight.

I keep thinking it is Monday....I love days off, but it always screws with your brain clock....LOL!

Yep--same here. It's going up to 90 today, tomorrow and Thursday. The humidity is pretty comfortable, though--so far.....it was a cool August, now maybe a warmer September? :blink:

Ya know it was warm up until November last year. I remember wearing capris and sandals to HersheyPark Halloween in the Dark the last week of October. I also remember it was 70 on my wedding day--November 3rd. I went on my Honeymoon and then it was cold.

I do remember that....we moved here right at the end of October and it was very warm leading up to that and was still warm for quite a while after we moved in.

Gawd--the whole year has just flown by.....

SNIPPY RECEPTIONIST

An older gentleman had an appointment to see the urologist who shared offices with several other doctors. The waiting room was filled with patients.

As he approached the receptionist's desk, he noticed that the receptionist was a large unfriendly woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler. He gave her his name.

In a very loud voice, the receptionist said,

'YES, I HAVE YOUR NAME HERE;

YOU WANT TO SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT IMPOTENCE, RIGHT?'

All the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look at the very embarrassed man.

He recovered quickly, and in an equally loud voice replied,

'NO, I'VE COME TO INQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE OPERATION, BUT I DON'T WANT

THE SAME DOCTOR THAT DID YOURS.'

DON'T MESS WITH OLD FOLKS.

I am trying to make my beach trip become a reality....

John and I are were originally off Thurs, Fri and next Mon. John has limited time off so he is going to go to work Monday and I guess I will too. He needs the time for when we buy a house. The settlement is always during the week. He is not sure about the trip to the shore since it is a day before payday and the begining of the month is tight for us, every bill plus rent is due now.

I would wait till the weekend but with Hurricane Hanna. that might damper things... I am content to go to the shore, even if it is just for a day...so I am trying to figure out how to swing this...

Ask Jess . . . I'm sure she knows how to swing as she's been spending a lot of time there lately.

      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.
