The doctors have finally figured out what has been wrong with Mummy- celiac disease. For some reason her body decided that she can no longer eat anything with gluten- anything with wheat, barley, or rye. She is already diabetic, so this just means she will have to be even more careful about what she eats. And when she comes visit in January, I will have to be very inventive about how I cook- lots of potatoes in the future, and other vegetables. No grilled cheese sandwiches unless I can find special bread. No processed foods, since wheat products show up everywhere as weird ingredients.
Apparently there are a number of products manufactured for people allergic to gluten- special flour, cereals, etc. I will now have to hunt them down.
Two toads today! Tonight I stepped outside onto my vintage brick patio, and there was one of the toads chirping away. I could hear it, but not see it, but anyways, I was very happy to hear that.
My archaeology project is ongoing, but the difficulty in finding people to work for me is worrisome. I have to be done on October 6, and have only half of the people I need. Once the backhoe is done though, I will be able to dig- you should see me throw dirt around. It's amazing!
