Rachel--24

Recommended Posts

I'm gonna get going, have some errands to run plus I'm getting a cheek cramp (and not the cheek on my face) :o

Oh my gosh, I gotta go also, Rachel's Slumber Party/Chatroom Girl Talk Thread is posing to be a huge excuse to avoid doing all the work and projects I have to do.....excellent and fun time - waster (well not that it's wasted time but you know, so much to do around here and can't just laugh and e-chat all day!!)

And Andrea, you are so right about Sarah.....so, if she was 90 in biblical times and gave birth, maybe you can halve that age and I'm still good? :rolleyes:

Chelsea - - good for you for leading those girls! - - -I've been looking into Big Brothers/Big Sisters and am concerned because I am SO broke right now, still no full-time job and currently not even a PART-TIME job as the writer I work for has been gone for two weeks......if I had a little sister, what would we do? Even gas money is scarce......

You guys are awesome......all kinds of laughs, encouragement, support, and heck, I only started on page 90 or so.....as mentioned before, need the Cliff notes to catch up on the other chapters...........

I'd say 50 or so actually. Wasn't the average age 120 then. That's about 35-40 years beyond ours..so don't give up. :P

WHAT???? so there is still hope for me? (44 years old)

Now that I'm gluten-free and not drinking, I think that my, um, selection process for dating candidates will be MUCH healthier than before...... :rolleyes: but I had totally ruled out having children....problem is, I really want grandchildren!! :blink:

Susan, there is always hope, and always many possibilities. :)

I've been following this string almost from the beginning. I didn't check it after about 2:30 PM yesterday, so when I checked in this afternoon it had gone from page 101 to page 112!!! I'm so dizzy! :blink:

I'm crashing this slumber party! It's the absolute BEST!!! :D You all are so smart and witty and caring and loving! Hugs and kisses to all! :D:D:D

About babies, sure you can have babies when you're in your forties. Go for it! After my first three, my mother was embarassed to death when I would turn up preggers again. Nice people just don't DO it that often!!! :lol::lol::lol: Poor daddy. ;)

About alcohol, unless something dreadful happens to my body because of it, I intend to have my Jack Daniels every Friday and Saturday night. I'm a loyal Tennessean! :lol:

Rachel, I pray all goes well at the doctor's today. I'll check this string in the morning.

And your ovaries

The ovaries...old, chemically/medicinally fried eggs in there..... :blink:

First need a man, I don't care what that other thread says about not needing the male, I will want one for that.....oh, and I'm done looking, so God himself has to send the guy to me when it's time!

thanks Julie, Floridian, Patti and Andrea for all the encouragement about these older women having babies. You know, I never even really wanted one that badly, until now, when the gluten-haze has been removed - - - somehow I am looking at them now in this whole new light, and then think I WANT ONE OF THOSE!!! :o

Oh, nanny will be required too as I am old and tired. :P

No worries, Jack doesn't bring any gluten to the party ;) Neither does Jose, Jim, or Evan :)

Welcome to the party Cissie.

I think it's pretty hilarious that right when a couple men join in, everyone starts a long conversation about ovaries.

:lol::lol::lol:

Yea...my husband is very cool about that kind of stuff--not embarassed at all.

Vincent--I like to say--"you can't buy (whatever), you can only rent it!" :lol: Stuff has a tendency to go through me pretty quick :ph34r:

It would be even more for me....I just bought an organic 100% grass fed 3 pound chuck roast for $27. :o

My DH got over his embarassment real quick when I had an emergency need for monistat. He's also been sent out for emergency OTC UTI meds, emergency phazyme, and emergency pregnancy tests. He's also present at Sam's when I buy tampax in bulk :lol:

He's a good kid :)

Sunday marks one year of marital bliss!!!

Personally, I got over the embarassment of buying tampons/pads when I was old enough to need to buy condoms :ph34r:

My DH is also good about buying whatever it is that I may need. :)

Andrea-- :o is right! It better be good-eh :D

We usually by the ground beef which is still very pricey but we bought it on sale. I had to call my mom to find out how to do pot roast. I'll still probably have to call her back tomorrow when I make it. Of course I have to adjust ingredients as I can't use wheat flour to coat it in. She also uses onion soup mix which I won't use. I haven't had pot roast for years...probably since I was last living at home...about 20 years ago...that's a long time...hope it's as good as I remember considering my mom won't be making it.

Our grocery budget is through the roof. Organic isn't cheap.

This isn't embarassing or anything, but just today Mark went to Whole Foods for me on his lunch break (it's near his work, but about 45 min from here). The store is under renovations, and he had to ask the guy where my Kiss My Face soap and Zia cleanser were--all the time on the phone with me making sure he got the right things. :rolleyes:

Who needs a chat room......we have Rachel's thread. :lol:

How's it feel to be so popular Rachel. :P

:ph34r:

jerseyangel Proficient
what comes to mind here is my phobia of "proper" words .... I can't say "menstration" and the rest of those.... I get SO embarrassed... now I can say the "slang" for everything and I have no problem.

OMG--me too! I've never heard of anyone else that was the same way! Spooky :ph34r:

Celia and Patti, that cracks me up :lol: You feel comfortable saying the slang words and not the proper terms??? Dirty mouths :lol:

Rachel--24 Collaborator

Well I'm off to my appt. :)

I had to catch up on the thread first...I feel like I'm running late all day today. Late for work, late coming back from lunch and now...if I dont move my butt, late for the appt. Could it be the thread? :o

Nah.... :P

BTW...The last guy I dated wasnt at all bothered when after only a few dates I sent him to the store for tampons. :lol:

It was kind of a test but he wasnt phased at all...I think he was actually happy to do it. :huh:

Many times after that he brought them home....knew exactly which ones to get too!

Oh...we werent living together....alot of times I was too sick to go to the store though so he went for me. :)

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
