I have the day off work (Bunker Hill Day!) and dropped the car off for service and took a nice long nap. Perfect for a rainy friday at home all by myself! I may even get some writing done before I have to go pick up the car and all the kids. (-:
Sad that my idea of a good time is a nap, but there it is. -Suzanne

Happy Friday everyone! Hello to the new faces.
I haven't been here in a while either, things have been just crazy. Hubby's been in and out of the hospital what seems like constantly for the past few weeks. Good news though, the last ER doc he saw suggested that his parahyperthyroidism (however you spell it) might be caused by celiac disease. So for the last week the whole family has been eating gluten free and he is actually feeling better for the first time in months. We're waiting for test results to see if that's what it is--though, he's already said that he sees no reason to go back to gluten if he keeps feeling better, no matter what the test results are. Unfortunately though, four days into the new "diet", my son (who we already know has a dairy intolerance) had a horrible detox-type reaction and now he is undergoing a whole bunch of tests to see if he's intolerant of other foods as well. And to top it all off, my two dogs have mange. ![]() Quote:

*fills glasses once again.* Geez, ya lushes.
Spiral, I know so many people whose lives have improved with a gluten free diet! Symptoms from serious eye infections to fibromyalgia have disappeared. Whoda thunk? I hope that's the magic bullet for your husband. Maybe the dogs should consider it too. ![]() andreea, I supposed biting is allowed, if that's your thing. Just don't want to scare anyone off. ![]() Let's get this party started!

Welcome to the party, Mikey!
*fills a drink and slides it down the bar.* I've got to taxi my son to a "burn your schoolwork party" but I'll try and pop back in later. Help yourselves to the potent potables everyone.

So...my quiet night is now a little too quiet. Hubby's gone back to emerg again.
I am really not trying to complain. I am very grateful that it's not pancreatic cancer like they first thought it was. I just don't have a lot of friends IRL to talk to and I might be having like my fourth or fifth glass of wine. So I could be whinier than usual. I appologize. |
