Sorry about your trip Laura, but it is rather crappy around here. You made a good choice. You'll just have to make the next trip EXTRA special.

I have a yard full of debre to drag to the street. Annie took some pictures of home and the beach and I try to post them when she gets back from the beach with her camera... (translation, I will have her post the pictures and I'll watch her do it.). It's really interesting how impressive "just" a tropical storm can be.

BRING BACK THE EDIT BUTTON ....debris :huh: (not that anyone would notice)

I took a nap this morning for 2 hrs....I never do that but it was the perfect day for it and it was so relaxing, the rain was pounding the window and you know I am getting sleepy just thinking about it :P

That sounds nice Amanda, I felt like that this morning when it was so cold, just curling up in a blanket with a good book or sumfin :)

It turned out being a really beautiful day here, sunny, mild, in the high 60s/low 70s.

well, they float, actually, so at least they'll look bigger in the tub.

Yes, they are quite buoyant :lol:

(aw c'mon, how often do I get to say that from Seattle?)

I'm going to steal Patti's line, tru dat!!!!!!

It's not raining men. This is fortunate, as men can cause extensive roof and structural damage, and house insurance does not cover property destruction from projectile homo sapiens......

:lol::rolleyes:

I noticed that Lisa, but I didn't even give it a second thought :lol:

I thought it was an oh so phabulous "Sillyville" spelling of the word.....debre, debr-e :D

Lisa! Thank goodness you clarified that for me!.............Your sentence stated something about dragging "debre" out to the street, and I thought perhaps you had a drunken relative staying with you, a Debra.....perhaps your MIL or sumfin'....and that you'd had about enough of her......

:lol:

Yeah... . . .I wonder how many boobs we'd have floating in my hot tub at our party?

Gawd, Peoter.....please don't tell us that your boobs would be floating...... . . . .. :lol::o

At least mine will never point south or fear being tucked into my belt :P

That, along with my still-oily skin (no fear of wrinkles here) just further backs up my claim that I am going straight from puberty to menopause. :rolleyes:

:lol: You guys are cracking me up! I wanna be in the hot tub, too. I'll make margaritas! Lots of 'em!

I'm a little drugged up right now, btw. The antibiotic I'm on makes me really nauseated, so I've been taking Phenergan to combat that... plus these funky cough medicine capsules the doc gave me.

Which reminds me... Dad and I built bunk beds for the boys. They rock. He did most of it, but I assisted. Anyway, Ezra calls them Funk beds. Hee hee.

Well, we didn't get ANYTHING from Hanna, here. Didn't come nearly as far inland as it had been projected to a couple days ago. It was a little breezy, but warm (mid 80s,) bright blue sky with a fluffy white cloud here and there. Quite nice, actually.

jerseyangel Proficient

Hee--funk beds. :P

Glad you guys didn't get the storm--I'm just hoping that when it blows outta here, it takes the dang humidity with it.

Pheel better, Sarah ;)

Lisa, excellent artistic interpretation of the flying debre.

Looks like Lisa (Goosey) added a new word to the Sillyville dictionary today :D

Mornin' Sillies B)

The storm is outta here--it's crisp and cool this morning. What a difference a day makes--eh?

Phorgot to tell you guys....we were getting groceries in our local Giant yesterday. A lady was there giving out samples, which Mark tried. She asked if I wanted some and I (not being in the mood to get into anything) said I have food allergies, so no thank you.

Mark pipes up that I have Celiac, to which the woman says--oh, I've heard of that....I've been having some problems and think I should be tested for it. So, I told her what to ask her doctor for if she decides to be tested.

So we continue on our way and another woman comes up to me with a pen and paper in her hand--she tells me that her daughter is having symptoms and asks some more questions. I ended up inviting her to the board and giving her my email address! :P

None of you are posting on the bed thread except for Patti? I can't believe a bed thread hasn't stirred up trouble .... I guess mold just isn't as interesting as Altoids. :D

I hope all of you are doing well. :)

I have been reading it, but you're right - had the bed been filled with say, skittles, undoubtedly it would be a lot more controversial (not to mention sticky).

As interesting, maybe, but a heck of a lot scarier :o Jeeze, I still can't get over it--the beds are moldy and they didn't even recall them or let anyone know??? <_<:angry:

      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.

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense. You may want to get your doctor to screen you for where you different levels are now to help identify any that are low, but since you're newly diagnosed within the past year, supplementation is usually essential for most celiacs.

      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.

      Hello @Heather Hill You are most welcome.  As a longstanding member and now mod of the forum, I am ashamed to say I find numbers and figures very confusing, so I rarely stray into the realms of explaining markers. (I've self-diagnosed myself with dyscalculia!)  So I will leave that to @Scott Adams or another person. However as a British person myself I quite understand that the process with the NHS can take rather a long time.  But just as you made a concerted effort to eat gluten before your blood test, I'd advise doing the same with eating gluten before a biopsy, in order to show if you are reacting to gluten.  It might be worth contacting the hospital or your GPs secretary to find out if they know what the current waiting time is. Here is a page from Coeliac UK about the current NHS recommendations. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/coeliac-disease/getting-diagnosed/blood-tests-and-biospy/#:~:text=If you remove or reduce,least six weeks before testing.

      Thanks again. My mom was diagnosed over 50 years ago with celiac so grew up watching her deal with the challenges of food. I have been tested a few times prior due to this but these results have me a bit stunned. I have a liver disease that has advanced rapidly with no symptoms and an allergy that could be a contributing factor that had no symptoms. I guess I’ll call it lucky my Dr ordered a rescreen of a liver ultrasound from 5 years ago that triggered this or I would likely have tripped into cirrhosis. It’s all pretty jarring.
