Ok- getting a little misty-eyed here. I found the student who is the reason I became a teacher! I was only going to do it for a year and then I had this student who had been brutally mistreated by his teachers- called lazy, never going to become anything. But he was sweet kind and smart.

And guess what? He DID become something: Open Original Shared Link

SO PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gosh. We have a big storm from Alaska headed toward us. :o

I had a 7th grader say "Hey- you wore that shirt LAST Thursday too!" Thank you for tracking my fashion

Bev!! What a terrific story! And this talented man's success is due completely to you. You need to get in touch with him and demand one of those beautiful ceramic pots in return for all you've done for him!....'Tis the very least he can do . . .. . ..

Well.....I can certainly see how you would suspect it might be me. But you see, like the reject photos that I clandestinely leave in the Walmart frames, I would only leave reject teeth in their wallets. All would have to be cracked, filled, chipped. . ....... .. ....most of these teeth were in pristine shape.

Why would anybody leave great pics or great teeth within Walmart products??

That is just nuts!!

:huh:

I emailed him and said Hey- is this you? It's your English teacher from 15 years ago (stalker? :ph34r: ). Either way, you're pottery's great!

He really is the reason I went into teaching. He was such a good kid- so much potential but had been beaten down by his teachers. I had him as a student when I was a tutor at a ski academy (the kids left their home schools for 6 months- tutoring in the a.m. and training in the afternoon, competing on the weekend). Amazing mogul skier!

At the end of the season, he gave me this note- he had made a mandala and inside written me a thank you note. Gawd, I miss that job!

Really nice here today...I worked outside in a sleeveless shirt! Almost as good as summer...YAHOOOOOO! I started terracing the hill in the back yard last year...worked on that some more. Telehubby is building a swing/glider to go back there. Can't wait!

Hmmm.

Is "being in heat" in any way related to "having the hots?" :blink:

The heat wave is subsiding. It is down to 5oC, and tomorrow will not reach double digits. It is expected to rain in the afternoon and evening. Most of the snaugh has turned to water and run away.

Bev, your teacher and former student story resonated with me. Sometimes paths recross years later. The man who unsuccessfully tried to teach me English Literature in the 12th grade is a customer in my store. English Lit just wasn't something I took to. B)

Good Morning, Tareeeeesuh! I see ya!

Hope you have more stupendous weather down your way... . .I can hear in your voice (writing?) :huh: how excited you are to be outside playing in your yard!

I have been staring at the white siding wall that is the back of our garage for some time now.......being an artist, I just need to fill big white spaces like that. I have some experience painting outdoor murals, and have been long researching what paint would work on the aluminum.

Well....all of a sudden, the plans have changed. Yesterday I stopped in my tracks outside one of our local art shops.....there I saw these big series of metal works, meant to be hung against a wall. I bought them immediately, not even knowing if they will lie flat against the siding, if they will completely rust within a month. . . ...

Crazy, impulsive artistic-emotions-are-stirred buying. <_<:rolleyes:

I will coat them with marine varnish, and see how things go.......will put up a pic.

English Lit just wasn't something I took to.

What? Hmmmmm....ya didn't have the right teacher. . . .. ... B)

This is phunny, POeter, as you have such a literary family and you write so well yourself.

      Hello @catnapt, That's so true. Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms. There are over 200 that it mimics. Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow. Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad. Idiots. It's easy to get angry at all of them. You just have to pick at the answers until you find...

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1

      Hello @catnapt, That's so true.  Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms.  There are over 200 that it mimics.  Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow.  Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad.  Idiots.  It's easy to get angry at all of them.   You just have to pick at the answers until you find the ones that work for you.  I too suffer from not being able to take the drugs that work for "everyone else".  SSRIs make me twitch ane feel like toothpicks are holding my eye open, ARBs cripple me.  Statins cause me intestinal Psuedo Obstruction.  Espresso puts me to sleep.  I counted 19 different symptoms that improved from GFD and dealing with my nutritional defecits.  I couldn't breath through my mouth until I started GFD at 64 years old.   My son was born with celiac disease, biopsy diagnosed at weaning.   So why are we the one-percenters.  Why, after being silent for so long, does it suddenly flare? There is the possibility that you have both Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity.  NCGS was not established as a diagnosis until 1980.  NCGS is diagnost by first elimating Celiac Disease as the cause, and showing improvement on GFD.  Nothing says you can't have symptoms from both.  Wheatbelly: Total Nutrition by Dr. Davis was helpful to me. We come to the forum to share what we've learned in dealing with our own symptoms.  Maybe this will help someone. Speaking of which if you don't mind; what is your 25(OH)D vitamin D blood level?  You mentioned a mysterious Calcium issue. Vitamin D, Calcium and Iodine are closely interactive. It is not uncommon for postmenopausal women to have insufficient intake of Iodine.   (RDA): Average daily level of intake sufficient to meet the nutrient requirements of nearly all (97%–98%) healthy individuals; often used to plan nutritionally adequate diets for individuals You are a one-percenter.  You may need higher intake of some essential nutrient supplements to speed up repairing the damages.
