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.

My heritage and my first name :)

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:

I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference. After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made...

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
