Well, thank gawd that, according to Jack anyway, those six trillion bacteria are on our feet, not on our arms - -otherwise, you'd be in a heap of PICC trouble, Bevel!

That is so crappy.....more heinous skin stuff for our lymie...... .. . :angry:

Soozie! This gardener's twenty-minute disappearance into his van . . ..... . .... . ..what in hell? How fascinating..... . . was the vehicle....um....moving at all? Like, back and forth, or circularly? Were there any.....noises coming from within? Did he look the same when he reappeared? Where was Stepford during this interlude?

Hmmmm. .. . . . . ..... . . ...must ponder this.. . . .. . ..

Hmmmm. .. . . . . ..... . . ...must ponder this.. . . .. . ..

:lol: :lol:

Okay please note, Em, that 'twas NOT a van. It was a trailer, with a gate that comes down so the machinery can be wheeled out. Curiously, I had just fully studied the inside of it earlier, as was coveting his blower......stood transfixed, in fact, as I stared at it and wondered if it had just too much power for the average citizen (me) to use.

So.....I did see the inside of this trailer......nothing but tools and equipment. Not even a bench or seat. I really expected a huge waft of marijuana smoke to come out when he was done (he works with his 13-y-old son so clearly had to hide his surreptitious activities). I walked out to smell it. Alas....none.

When we had our conversation, it was quite curious......he was sullen and unfriendly......VERY uncharacteristic. I asked if I could write him a cheQUE (for $10), as had done many times in the past. he was silent for many seconds and said no, he wants cash. :unsure:

See, there really WAS a dead body in there cartel going on.......I KNEW IT! :lol:

Never seen such a contraption. Sounds like something assembled on a Ford assembly line by a worker on marijuanna....... . :lol::lol:

Ah-hah! I have figured out the mystery!

The man has undiagnosed Celiac, he has a bucket in the trailer for his 'episodes', and he was suffering from brain fog and mood swings, hence his surly out-of-character reply!

Or perhaps he's just a smoker and he's tired of getting paid ten bucks a pop. What on EARTH does this guy do for ten bucks a pop?

(Note: I was only able to come up with the above scenario thanks to my boyfriend, who mows grass and keeps a bucket in his trailer for said purposes. He gets half the credit. Their crew really only uses it to pee out of sight though.)

Capital idea, Em!! Sounds like the poifect job fer CurlyLisa--she's so good at going back and pickin' out the good stuff ;):P

Ya know I DO have a JOB! :P ......one where I cannot just poop into Sillyville......there be spies who monitor the goings on with all school computers :ph34r: ........although I do appreciate your finding me worthy of such a prestigious task. B)

I vote that we use a little mathS and divvy up the pages amongst the Sillies ;)

<_< You haven't seen the size of my YARD. He will do my whole front yard for $10. Yup, that's right. I usually do it myself........and I am the ONLY person in all of Stepford who does these two things: hand-cuts the edges of the grass (yup, down on me hands and knees, pholks) and: sweeps it all up WITH A BROOM. People really do stare at me. :blink:

and BTW - nearly EVERYone has a gardener here, except me. <_< But you should see how very pedestrian the yards are. and grass.........why..........why......WHY do people grow grass in a desert......makes me insane......ever heard of DROUGHT-TOLERANT GROUND COVER??????????????

Gads! Balloon shaped sillies with nekkid punctures and ten dollar yards.

I got three pairs of sandally type shoes. I have whiny feet that don't cotton to the average shoe, so I usually end up going to Nordstroms ($$) but at least they fit. And then I got some dressy ones at payless for 8 bucks. go figure.

Nope . . . no mojo yet . . . just gladly reading along.

HOWEVER!!!!! I must share this with me sillies.

I started a new book for book club called The Lace Reader. Listen to all of these coincidences within the first six pages . . . She's originally from North Shores (Bev). Her mom lives on Yellow Dog (Susie) Island. She now resides in California (Susie & Tom). She was just released from the hospital (Amanda) due to a hysterectomy (Jess). She admits that she lies all the time (Emily . . . well, not that "admitting" part). Lord knows what will happen next!!

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.
    • allis
      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening. 
    • Sarah Marie
      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her. 
    • trents
      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H". 
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, allis! By "skin response to gluten products" are you saying you develop a rash when you use lotions, creams, shampoos, etc. that contain gluten? One of the classical symptoms of celiac disease is a skin rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis or "dermatitis herpetiformis" for short. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. It has a distinct appearance. It has little blisters or pustules in the bumps. Does this sound like what you experience? Is so, it might be possible to get a punch biopsy done when you are having an outbreak. This would be an alternative to eating gluten. If your skin biopsy was positive for dermatitis herpetiformis you could be diagnosed with celiac disease on that basis alone. Apart from that, I know of no other way to get a diagnosis apart from returning to eating gluten for a period of weeks.
