It was the name of my stained glass business when I had one :angry: because I like ravens (we used to get them in our pine trees and I took pictures and did a glass piece from one), walking in the woods (when I still could) and of course I love working with glass.

Mine isn't so exciting. I couldn't figure out what our username should be for a certain something so I came up with jams and our last name. J is for my son Josh, A is for me, M is for my dd Megan, and S is for dh Shawn. It was the only thing I could figure out at the time and it has just stuck!!

Ravenwood and Lkelly8--I've often wondered about your names--now I know! :D

Mine is where I live (love Jersey!) and instead of using "girl"--as in jerseygirl--I used angel just cause I like them :lol:

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. ;)

BURDEE

I love birds, too. We have four (one is mine, they all think they're mine). Our cockatiel whistles Andy Griffith -- and whistles very beautifully. My bird is a cockatoo ... he can talk, but he squaks really loud in the morning (the sun won't come up without him). One morning he said, "Hi baby, Howya doin, I love you, c'mere." It was hysterical, we've said all those things to him, but never in that order or together. Hmmm, guess I should have been creative and used my bird's name as my screen name!

That is actually very clever!

Makes me feel a little less goofy for ensuring that my 3rd child's name had a 4 letter nickname so he would match the rest of us.

Another Jersey girl! But....you LOVE it????? LOL

There sure is a difference :lol: I live South now, but for a year lived North (Warren County <_< )

I do love it here--we've lived in different states, and even in different parts of NJ--the afore mentioned North, and also Glouster Co and Marlton. We're in NW Burlington Co. now.

How about you?

Interesting....I grew up in Gloucester County, and now I live in Burlington County. Not *too* far from Marlton, but a little more toward the shore.

I work in Trenton so I probably drive by your house every day. I'll wave on the way home tonight! :D

Girl Ninja or Girl Head are hubby's affectionate nicknames for me. If he has a specific reason for choosing those, I don't know what it is. What a weirdo, eh? It's cool, though. It could be soo much worse. ;)

kaycee - LMAO! That's awesome. My grandma has 4 daughters. Her youngest is my aunt Barb. She's in her 40's now and to this day whenever my grandma writes her name on anything she writes Barbarbara. We've all tried to fix it. She's really glad my grandma wasn't the one who wrote it on her birth certificate. :lol:

Rinne - How do you know that? Is it another language? How do you pronounce it? I'm fascinated that I learned a new word.

I used to work at a company where the "important" people got an official 4 letter signature of the first 2 letters of their first, and last name. I wasn't important, but mine would have been "JeSt" which I think suits me. Gar is the first half of my NSO's first name. Even though I divorced him, I liked the name combination so I'm keeping it!

Yah, she doesn't look like a granmother does she? A little older than me....of course I'm an older mother.

Now if I look like that when I have a grandbaby, then, wow. :P I'll be old and wrinkled by that time. :lol: Oh wait, I forgot about my stepsons.....maybe I won't be so old an wrinkled. The one that's married isn't in a hurry to start a family though.

I am also another jersey girl.. but obviously my name has nothing to do with it. Had to add my two cents into the jersey thing. Central Jersey... shore.

My name happens to come from ummm.. Tinkerbell... another obvious one.. from the famed Peter Pan. I love Disney. Besides it is the name of my beautiful cat. She is a ragdoll, and I named her Tinkerbell, before it was in vogue to do so. (before Paris Hilton did it too)

Swt is an abbreviation for Sweetie. My dog we had to give to another loving family when we moved and had a baby. She was a bit too hyper for a baby to be around. She was a rescue we got. She was hit by a car in north jersey, and dragged underneath it. She was in a body cast when we first got her. Miss her incredibly.. :(

But onto better things today... have a great day all!!

It's just that we appear to be roughly the same age, and my kids are almost 7 and almost 9. You just don't appear to be a "little ol' granny".

Ick. My dad and Ty are all stretched out and disgusting on my new avatar. :wacko:

Huh. :blink: The thingy said the update to Ty in his hockey didn't work and there he is. But really...for a brief moment in time there was a digusting "Ty & Cy" photo.

Yep, I agree. Until somebody pointed out that it said that it was your grandbaby, I assumed the baby was your own baby.

I only hope nobody thinks I look like a 'little ol' granny myself'. :blink:

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article

      Hi @Charlie1946 You are very welcome.   I agree wholeheartedly with @knitty kitty:  "I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants." I had a type of tingling/sometimes pain in my cheek about 2 years after my diagnosis.  I noticed it after standing in cold wind, affecting  me after the event - for example, the evening after standing outside, I would feel either tingling or stabbing pain in my cheek.   I found using a neck roll seemed to help, reducing caffeine, making sure I was well-hydrated, taking B12 and C vitamins and magnesium.  Then when the lockdowns came and I was using a facemask I realised that this pain was almost entirely eliminated by keeping the wind off my face.  I think looking back I was suffering from a type of nerve pain/damage.  At the time read that coeliacs can suffer from nerve damage caused by nutritional deficiencies and inflammation, and there was hope that as bodywide healing took place, following the adoption of a strict gluten free diet and addressing nutritional deficiencies, recovery was possible.   During this time, I used to spend a lot of time outdoors with my then young children, who would be playing in the park, and I'd be sheltering my face with an upturned coat collar, trying to stay our of the cold wind!  It was during this time a number of people with a condition called Trigeminal Neuralgia came up to me and introduced themselves, which looking back was nothing short of miraculous as I live in a pretty sparsely populated rural community and it is quite a rare condition.   I met a number of non-coeliacs who had suffered with this issue  and all bar one found relief in taking medication like amitriptyline which are type of tricyclic anti-depressant.   They were not depressed, here their doctors had prescribed the drugs as pain killers to address nerve pain, hence I mention here.  Nerve pain caused by shingles is often treated with this type of medication in the UK too, so it is definitely worth bearing in mind if standard pain killers like aspirin aren't working.
