What Does Your Username Mean?

"mythreesuns" is a reference to.....you guessed it, my three sons! :P

Edited to add: I forgot to mention that the reason why it's mythreesUns instead of mythreesOns is because when I first used that username on WebMD (as soon as I found out my 3rd was a boy) mythreesons was already taken.

Plus, well, I guess, on occasion, they do light up my life.

I'm more "crunchy" (used cloth diapers, used a sling, have a garden, cook from scratch, a bit of a tree-hugger) than most people that I know, but I still have quite a few non-crunchy tendencies...so I'm chewy!! And I'm a mom (of five, I might add).

LOL, I used a sling, cook from scratch (don't bake though), and have six kids .... odds are you homeschool ... right? I did for ten years ...

Mine too is just my name although when my Aunt by marriage and I took some residents from the school we worked at to the state fair one year she walked into a building and yelled to me my family was there. I went into the building and there in huge letters above a pen of, very cute I might add, donkeys was the word JENNY'S. She's so funny. :lol::D

My user name is the nickname my husband gave me. I collect anything 'penguin' and love feeding and watching wild birds. In my next life, when I have lots of time and a maid, I'll have an aviary full of cockateils. :lol: For now I'll just feed red winged blackbirds who land on my hand to eat peanuts and other songbirds who visit our 7 feeders, 2 birdhouses and large birdbath, with a remote controlled sprinkle attachment. The birds think it's a water fountain/shower head just for their convenience. ;)

Aeon - I've always loved the ae combination character too. There was someone on a message board that I used to go to named Maendi, which was her real name. I never did figure out how she pronounced it though.

Jules - I LOVE (!!!) the squiggles. I wish I would have thought of that. I may borrow the idea someday.

I've used Nantzie as a username since the dawn of time; since around 1995. It comes from my childhood. A friend of mine and I were being goofy with our names one day. She decided to be Melon-E and said I should be Nan-Z. We decided after saying my name a thousand times (like ya do...) that there was definitely a T in there somewhere and it evolved from there. I like it because I never have a problem finding a username that nobody has taken. B)

I've thought about figuring out a different username. Maybe I'll change it to Naentzie or ~Nancy~ someday. :D

My mum can never remember whether my name starts with a K or a C, so she will use both, even in the same card. So it had to be Kaycee.

I just can't figure out what my mums problem is, she named me, so why or how can she get it wrong?

Some birds 'shower' directly under that sprinkler attachment, but Black Capped Chickadees actually lift their wings while under the shower. Other birds land on top of the sprinkler and drink from the 'fountain'. We replaced our dining room window with a huge bay window just to watch our birdee visitors. I can see birds feeding their babies in the 2 birdhouses, from my upstairs studio window. We enjoy birdee activities year round.

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a LONG time. It makes me nostalgic for my family.

It reminds me of my Grandfather pronouncing my mom's name. Her name was Cheryl. He was from Sweden and had a very thick accent. The way he pronounced her name was Shrrl. One syllable. No perceptible vowel. My mom's sister's name was Joyce. If you know anything about a Swedish accent, he pronounced it Yoyce. So instead of Joyce and Cheryl, it was Yoyce and Shrrl.

I think Grandma might have been a little passive agressive... :lol:

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate...

      Airborne Gluten?

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks...

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Airborne Gluten?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
