OHHHHHHHHHHmigod I've got too much to say!

PerroSenorita? Estudio? Porquoi? (Oops francais?)

Wow am I diggin' city life. (SJ not really so much a big city)

But big enough to have the SF Symphony play in The Park. I walked over to meet old girlfriend Mei for it and it was amazing, thru most of the program anyway. Aaron Copeland's "Fanfare for the Common Man" gave me chills from the 1st brass notes. The tone and intonation so perfect, I had no idea how many were playing. :blink: Usually it's not hard to tell these things.

What a day! Great acupuncture & ocean in Santa Cruz. Having dinner tonight at Shelly's and meeting up w/ another old girlfriend tomorrow morning at my fav WGlen coffeehouse

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh life is good. :D

No time now for silliness. :(

Oh Goosey :lol:

Carla! Your kitchen looks huuuge! I know, like you said, the cabinets and all are out, but wow, I'm jealous. The house we're in now is teensy weensy, just over 900 sf! We've got so much stuff crammed into our storage shed, it's not even funny. (I think it's time for a trip to Goodwill... or maybe several :blink: )

Amanda, I've never seen The Office, but my hubby has- he's a fan of Steve Correl... Corell? However it's spelled.

I laughed about "Tamponhead" all day... which brings me to a confession.

I have had a couple drinks tonight.

Susie, I have been reading this thread for a while before posting, and now... at random times during the day, the word "Mojito" pops into my head. Why does this happen? I don't know, except that I love words, and oh my gosh I have brownies in the oven, hold on........... Ok, brownies aren't done yet. Anyways, I love words, and that word has been sticking with me!

Except... when it pops into my head, it tends to repeat with a weird accent... Moh-hito ..... Mohhhh-HITO!

Other words that randomly pop into my head and then won't leave:

- Dastardly (one of my all-time favorite words)

- Quid

- Kappa Mikey. It's kid's show I guess- I hear ads for it on TV. When I hear this, it's a fast chant- "KappaMikeykappamikeykappamikey"

- Mele Kalikimaka

Oh, Tom, there's always time for sillyness- you're just not sharing it with us right now. ;)

I promise this isn't a completely inebriated post, I wouldn't do that you guys :wub: But I am definitely feeling VERY silly.

-Sarah

Edit- PS- I've told my hubby how much I love this message board- "I have people I can talk about poop with, and they don't mind!" He just shakes his head...

Edit- PS #2- There's a new member here with the name medictao, which an uber-cool name! ...But I accidently read it meditaco the first time, now that one keeps popping into my head too. :P

Ahhhhhh, Ptaum...I want your life. Except for the ex-girlfriends, as I suppose those would be tough to explain. You seem to be surrounded by ex's. How come you never married any of them? None have been silly enough, I bet... ;)

Beautiful kitchen, Carla. Interesting shade of green...puce?

Now this is a word that pops into my mind occasionally. Puce. What on earth does that say about me? Through my studio classes at university, we often argued about what colour puce truly was, as it didn't appear on any colour wheel or graph we could find. Our final official definition was: Puce (n): pigment that falls between snot and vomit.

I miss those days! :D

I'll put a picture up of my house tomorrow on my personal profile. I'll just leave it there for a few hours (not a good idea on the internet, right? ;)). So, be sure to look tomorrow.

I'm going to be in and out all day, but I don't want to miss it....so, if you see my face popping up as a "visitor" to your page, I'm just checking for the picture. :lol:;)

Two years ago we didn't just remodel our kitchen, we MOVED it to another part of the house! :o Mygawd, that was big...and messy and scary!!

Wow :o That sounds like quite the production!

How long did that take?

I know, when Carla's is done, we should all do kitchen avatars for a week :D

*cough*....*splutter* ermmm.....not on your nelly Patti !!! :lol:

My kitchen is quite squalid :lol: ....needs the re-model.....but I'm just waiting on that lottery win ;)

CarlaB Enthusiast

I need some help ... how do you resize a picture using windows picture viewer? I know I've done it before ....

Yes, my kitchen is big. It's unusual for such an old house .... but there used to be a pantry in it. We could tell where it was because there was still part of the wall there. Now we've taken that wall down.

The green is awful ... it was completely hidden, I was quite surprised when we saw it. At one time a lot of the kitchen was red ... including the wood floor that had been covered by Pergo.

CarlaB Enthusiast

Nevermind ... I cropped it and that worked. :)

jerseyangel Proficient
including the wood floor that had been covered by Pergo.

:blink: Why would someone do that?

I can't help with the picture, I only have experience with photoshop--and I'm not even very good with that. :unsure:

CarlaB Enthusiast

Well, it was painted RED! :o Actually the floors were 3/8 of an inch and had been refinished many times. They were not salvageable, we had to tear them out and have them redone in the rest of the house. That was our first project before we even moved in ... it makes the kitchen project look like a walk in the park!!! We also had the windows replaced last year.

BTW, if you live in an old house, Pergo looks really bad unless you get the fake stone stuff (a friend has that), but the wood looks bad in an old house ... I've seen it look nice in a newer house ...

YOU SAID TAMPON HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carla- Sorry about your rough day. Need to write a book "carla's No Good, Very Bad day"

Patti- NO, no one will EVER hit you because you are too nice! :wub: Which is why it's even funnier that you said HYSTERS!!!!!!!

Oh funny friends...I am hurting and need giggles. I twisted ankle and fell hard stepping off my deck Thursday night. Am now in aircast (not broken- ligaments very, very upset!) and very unhappy and in pain (yes- more pain than I was already in). NEED GOOD LAUGHS!!!!!!!

CarlaB Enthusiast

Oh, Bev, I'm so sorry. I hope you got good laughs from my miserable day! It isn't enough info for a whole book, but it sure would have made a good sitcom! -- Lyme brain loses keys at grocery store! And you know, it was ALL Adam's fault ... you can ask him, he knows it is ... he readily takes the blame for EVERYTHING! What a guy! :D

nikki-uk Enthusiast

Yes, it can look quite nice in a newer house--my parents have it in their kitchen and it's attractive. I just wondered why someone would put something that looks looks like wood over wood. It's a shame the floors were beyond repair....

Is the picture up?

Thanks, I do, too, I had my latte today on my porch ... though it's STILL in the 90's here every day. Very odd.

When we drove up to this house when we were looking, I knew before we even came in the front door that this was the one. :) We were so fortunate to be able to get it. :)

This weather is HEINOUS!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me my October. (need pumpkin emoticon)

Actually, before realizing ankle was in such bad shape, i did make it to the Topsfield fair (the scene of last year's trampoline jumping B) ) and saw the World's largest Pumpkin (1700 pounds and worth over $6000). It was UGLY!!!!!!!!!

Carla- Your house look SO COOL!!!!!!

Thanks, Bev.

I remember a year ago ... I was sliding downhill and felt about like I do now ... I remember thinking how fun it would have been to jump on a trampoline and drink cosmos! Next year, right? :)

Green12 Enthusiast

Carla,

Just popping in to say I love your house! Great porch :) You will be showing after pics too when the remodel is complete?!?!?

Sorry about your ankle Bev, feel better soon.

Hi Nikki!

Thanks, yes I will. :) After the kitchen, the only thing left is the master bath. :) Then it's just regular maintenance of a 91 year old house. ;)

elye Community Regular

Yes, Bev...sorry about your ankle mishap. That joint can be a bugger when twisted. Take it easy...(Ha! right, huh?)

Beautiful house, Carla!

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.  
    • asaT
      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
    • nanny marley
      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again 
    • trents
      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
