Violin; I've been playing for about 15 years. I started when I was tiny :)

Fun. I bet you're really good! I play flute ... but just with the Church choir and the community band. I played from 5th grade through high school, then didn't touch it for 23 years! I started playing again a couple years ago. It's fun.

It always feels weird and so conceited saying this, but yeah, I am good :) At the moment I'm a bit rusty, I've been working on a Concerto by Saint-Saens but haven't been practicing as regularly as I should.

My mum plays flute, she gets it out once a year because this local choir always asks her to help w/their christmas concert. The rest of the year she doesn't touch it (she's also a fabulous pianist, nice to have a "built in" accompanist ;))

Anyways, I'm off to go pick up my brother from school (my real brother, he's 5yo and also adorable :D)

Humility is having a good understanding of both what you're good at and what you're bad at. It would be false humility if you acted as if you were bad, but you were really good. It's true humility that you recognize you are good, but are modest enough to be shy about saying it. :)

I'm sure your bit rusty is still pretty darn good!! ;)

Do the happy-fridge-is-coming-this-A.M-dance!

I can't wait to get this fridge in may house! It's like a monsoon here right now, and the guy is supposed to brin gthe fridge "around 10" :huh: It has to come up about 15 steps before it gets inside, so I'm not exactly thrilled with the weather :(

Olivia was sick to her stomach last night, so none of us got too much sleep. Unfortunately I need to be at a "study abroad fair" that I helped organize, so no staying home to catch up -_-

I missed most of LOST last night too :(

Why do I have the feeling that the fridge isn't going to fit in the front door without cutting it in half?

Time to light the incense and dance around the Barbies (not recommended at work, but these are desperate times) :huh:

It'll fit. They have to be able to get those refrigerators in standard size doors, right?

I hope your wife likes it, too.

I'm sure it will fit...I just don't deal well with the aggrevation this sort of stuff brings...Like when I ordered the darn thing. It should have taken 20 minutes, but ended up almost 2 hrs...I'm sure I'll have a story later on :)

The Fridge is in and chillin'!

Some random Steve delivered it- without incident :)

It is BIG, and my kitchen is small. It sticks out obout 6" in front of the counter, so it's like you have to walk around the fridge to get anywhere (galley kitchen). I'm sure I'll get used to it, I can't wait for the missus' first impressions when I get home. (hopefully her first impression won't be made on my forehead via freezer door :P )

All this talk of Steve(s) got me thinking- poll time, who's your favorite Steve. Then I realized gfp would win in a landslide, so...

Who's your favorite Barry?

(feel free to submit your vote with a convincing picture)

My top 5 (in no particular order):

Barry White http://www.comicgenius.com/DiscoFever/imag...arry_white1.webp (the best of the Barrys)

Barry Manilow http://www.erikgrow.com/Birth/Images/manilow.webp (still looking for his "good" side)

Barry Williams http://www.weht.net/pics/barry.webp (rapping...the real Greg Brady...)

Barry Bonds http://www.funnyhub.com/pictures/img/barry-bonds-in-drag.webp (speaks for itself)

Barry Pepper http://www.creamystar.com/actor/barry_pepp...y_pepper_01.webp (a.k.a. uber-Barry my favorite of the acting Barrys - loved him in Saving Private Ryan)

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      The Happy Tart review

      By Francis M · Posted

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Nausea

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.
