Good googly moogly gosh-I am gone for a few hours and The Dave is half naked (I even did an f5 and didn't SEE it, lol), drive by postings, everyone else asleep :blink: I am on daylight savings time too, but have insomnia quite alot.

Andrea, when do you sleep, girl! I meant to mention before, but my dh's grandmother was named Talitha. I never knew another. I love Biblical names, too.

Hey, The Dave, so, you work with Rachel? What exactly do you do? Is there a Mrs. Village Idiot? Tell us more about yourself. What are your hobbies? Do you by any chance make scrunchies or bracelets? Enquiring minds want to know, lol :P

Haha... Yea we work together. What exactly do I do....not much honestly :D No Mrs. Village Idiot, I'm not quite ready for that yet.... give it a few more years... :D Hobbies.....hmm, I recently bought a house so sometimes I do work around the house....it wasn't in the best shape (still isn't), but it's getting better. I make scrunchies by the hundreds.....j/k

Yea not too exciting.... got 2 puppies on Sunday though! Very cute...10 weeks old, brother/sister, Golden Retrievers! No pictures on the computer yet :(

How about you? Insomniac huh? where abouts are you??

Hey Robbin,

It's great to see you this late.

I usually head off sometime between 10:30 and 11:30 and don't get up until 7:30 or 8:00. Kids don't get up until between 7-8. I'm one of those that like to sleep my 8 hours. Kids names...Talitha, Micah and Seth....all bible names.

Don't I wish. He gets paid by the mile. I'm one the phone with him now. He's about 2 hours away and waiting for another truck to get loaded, then he'll be on his way home. It'll be about midnight before he gets home and then he's out the door around 5 if not earlier.

Crazy.... I couldn't cope with that much.....well.....or lack of sleep!

Speaking of Bible names, I'm one of four boys, David, Elliot, Noah and Sam.

Not really on purpose though.... go figure :rolleyes:

Pictures.....I demand pictures. Retrievers are my favorite, either golden or labrador.

I expect those up pronto. :D

Is Sam short for Samuel? Are you the oldest?

I only have one brother 5 years older. Mitch has 1 brother and 3 sisters. He's the 2nd born.

Meredith,

I see you. Hey, what time and day is it down under? It's 9:30 our time (pacific).

Hey Rachel,

You made it back from the dangerous food zone. Are you in one piece?

Hey Susan--How about this one

Du Du Wah Shooby Dooby.... :ph34r:

Just singin to myself B)

I was gonna stop posting, but I can't help myself :lol:

Miss Patti, you are going to get in trouble, on so many levels! :lol:

premature post....just got home....catching up.....

Guest Robbin

:) Hi Judy, I see you :) .

I am in the great state of Virginia. Near that "other president's place" ! I have a golden retriever too. Six years old, lazy as heck, BabyRuth. You do home remodeling?! A lot of us on here are Home Depot and Lowes addicts!! We have those in R'ville!! Did you not read the ENTIRE thread?! That is a requirement, btw. (only kidding, lol)

Andrea, married to a truck driver is like being married to a dr. That has to be hard. My dh is gone at 7:30 am and home at 7 pm. Long commute to DC area (50miles one way) so, I don't see much of him either. Weekends are usually busy cramming in as much family time as possible since Ds is of the age that he will not want to be seen with us next year. Almost to that now, lol.

I will be leaving on Thursday early in the morning to go visit OH so I will not be officially missing-just miserable traveling. Will be back Sunday night. I will check in, though as much as possible-I do not want to have to read 100 pages to catch up!!

So, Dave, what are the puppies' names and what color are they? I have a red golden. She looks like Duke the Bush bean dog on the commercials. We call him her boyfriend 'cause she always watches those commercials closely. She is my dog daughter. I also have a cat daughter, Chessie and a cat son, Tom J..

Oh, and I do have two sons, lol can't forget the princes :)

are we all getting naked? I have to warn you I really am skinny

oh good moogly moogly NO we are NOT all getting nekkid!! :o Don't worry little Mia, but will there be wedding bells with Lynne's son in R-ville? Oh, our first wedding! :wub:

I also have a golden, Buddy. Dopiest dogs around. This is our third golden, wouldn't buy any other kind of dog.....

Buddie is the english style golden retriever - very light blonde. Our first and second goldens were the American style goldens (the redder kind). The reason that the english style goldens are lighter is because they were bred with Great Pyrenese waaaaay back and the reason the American style goldens are darker is they were bred with the irish setters waaaaaaay back when. At least that's what I was told......

Dingo!!!! Yay!!! Sheeeesssss BBBAAACCCCCKKKK!!!!

Oh, welcome back baby, to the po' side of town.... lol. :D

Yea Home Depot and Lowes are my friends too.....

You have a few acronyms I don't know... dh, and ds.... It sounded like dh was your husband....or maybe..... Designated Husband.....

Kind of like a Designated Hitter or Pinch Hitter?

Puppies names....my roomate named the girl Pumpkin (they are orange/reddish), the boy I am still yet to name...thinking...haven't decided....

That's interesting Karen,

I used to have a lab/retriever mix. He was great. I gave him up to move into town many years ago. He was trained by my ex boyfriend. When we split....I got the dog. He'd done all the basic work with him so he was a really well behaved dog. The only problem was he loved to jump, pity any child that came near him. He was extremely loveable and exciteable. I'll probably never have a dog like that again, if I even get another one. Where we are now, we can't have pets; and besides the kids are too young.

No problem! Colon talk doesn't bug me.....in fact...my colon is pretty great itself!

Watch that Dave, you are going to give Bev and some others

COLON ENVY

Votre Francais et tres bien, mon ami. Mine sucks. I don't think he is in France, though. I think he is in Connecticut.

Rachel, tell us about the grocery shopping ? Any exciting celebrity sightings? :D

We got spoiled last week....he was home for dinner 4 out of 5 nights. He's a local delivery driver, so unless they send him down to Southern Oregon he's home every night. Since he's driving maxi now, that probably won't happen. He used to be gone about 1-2 times a month. I drive on the weekends to give him a break. :P

Celbrity sigtings....did I miss something? Did she see someone last time?

I have worked at like 7 different stores and the only people I ever see are sports stars... like half the old school 49ers team....Joe Montana, Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Ronnie Lott's wife used to shop in Saratoga regularly....etc....I wish I got to see celebs though...how fun!

Picard lives in CT. Don't challenge me, I didn't get good grades in French and only took a year. I don't remember exact words for the most part.

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
