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

North or South (because there IS a difference!) :P

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:

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      A gluten ingestion can last for many months. Many years ago there was a celiac conference in Fl. Everyone there got contaminated with some having difficulty 6 months to recover.

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps. I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday. I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testi...

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps.  I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday.  I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testing but the PA recommended me to a celiac specialist. Unfortunately the first available is mid-December.  As far as diet, I am a pescatarian (have been for 25+ years) and I stopped eating dairy mid-last week as my stomach discomfort continued. Right now, I’m having trouble eating anything. Have mostly been focused on bananas, grapes, nut butters, DF yogurt, eggs, veggie broth.   I ordered some gluten-free meal replacements to help.  But I’ll get all the items (thank goodness for Instacart) and try the diet you recommended to get me past this period of feeling completely awful.  Yes, my doctor diagnosed celiac. I was concerned it wasn’t right based on the negative blood test and my continued symptoms.  Even if you are ‘glutened’ it shouldn’t last forever, right? Is four days too long?
