Still.....a light salad does sound awfully....sappy? feminine?

I believe some of the populace would use the versitile gay in this situation.

Never heard of Corner Gas. Sounds view-worthy!

Where-ah is Sarah??

Roadtrips in unreliable cars always make me imagine every new sound or smell equals imminent disablement. (Is that really a word?)

1. Amanda- I'm sorry :( And yes, W does stand for with with a capital B. pay no mind- SHE'S obviously the one with a problem. And you know we love you! :wub: :wub:

2. OMGAWD- Remember Susie's Zombie Man? Well now Open Original Shared Link!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is scary! But note- the 3rd paragraph:

"Oh s*&t! It's Baby Man," says one cashier, a Hispanic kid who's heard the legend but has never been a witness to the spectacle. "It's like Sasquatch!" he says. "You don't believe it exists until you see it."

Is this where our yeti has gone? :ph34r: :ph34r:

Gawd....I was reading this a while ago, and honest to gosh I was getting nauseous while i was reading the story. Of course, it could have been dinner not settling right, but wow :o

I'm still kinda queasy (really need that green guy emoticon)

What a story--he was good looking back in the day. Wow.

Um, the doctor DID pull a wooden splinter out of that eye :blink: which could be the problem......but he is not entirely sure. (isn't that comforting?) Prescribed an antibiotic.......we will see.............

Well for Pete's sake! A wooden splinter--that sounds painful. :o Hopefully that was the problem and a few days on the meds will take care of it. Keep us posted.

Don't be scared because things are going so well--you deserve to be happy :)

Susie!! This sounds like good news, the discovery of a splinter in David's eye....Certanly this must be the cause of his eye problems. Question: How on earth could he have gotten a wooden splinter in his eye and not realized it? :huh:

Thanks for all the nursing encouragement, guys! :wub: It's one of only a couple careers I can see myself being happy with for the rest of my life. I first made the decision a couple years ago, and have just been waiting for the kids to get a little older (and a little healthier, truth be told.) I've been out of college since Luke was a toddler, so finally preparing to go back is VERY exciting for me!

Nurse Sarah? THAT ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! You will be great (and hopefully surrounded by McDreamies AND McSteamies!)

An aesthetically pleasing work environment would always be a plus. ;)

And now for something completely different...

I thought I'd share a few of my boys' nicknames.

Lucas (The Engineer): Luke, Mister Man, Big Man, Smarty Pants, Boy Genius.

Ezra (The Adventurer): Ez, Little Man, The Booger (that's from his father :rolleyes: ,) Darth Ezra, Dr. Destructo.

I also torment my sons with ooey gooey endearments: Honey Pie, Sweetie Cake, Pumpkin Pie, Baby Doll, Lovey, and Peanut.

When they do something silly, they are: Goofball, Goober, Crazy Head, and Silly Billy.

:P

Sarah, where do we get this stuff from? Is it from the SNL skits with the Rob Schneider (Richmeister) "makin' copies" guy?

I contort my kids' (and dogs') names all the time.

But I'm currently on a Freddy kick. I call them both Freddy . . . started from "Ready, Freddy?" which progressed to "Are you Freddies ready?" to "Hey, Freddy!" :huh::lol:

Well, it's late and I should be going to bed. It's been a stressful day and I'll tell you guys later after I get through a stressful morning tomorrow . . .Howevah . . .

Susie . . . keep good thoughts! I think a splinter in the eye might cause some weirdy beardy kind of stuff. Will keep my fingers crossed that that is all it was.

Sarah . . . I can see you as a nurse. You've already got all kinds of experience with bodily fluids.

Emily . . . juggling flaming cheese toilets? really? couldn't you come up with something more imaginative than that?

Jess . . . bedhead girl, et al . . . :lol::lol: I think we could all use some good nicknames around here. I'll start thinking about that . . .

tom . . . ROTOFL . . . :lol::lol: . . . What does it mean when I "got that" before I even read your explanation?

Amanda & Patti . . . quit rubbing it in with the Weggies . . . or you won't like the nicknames we come up with for you!!!! :jealousfaceemoticon:

Bev . . . BabyMan? That's just soooooooooooo wrong.

Nikki . . . link us to the Tatt!!!

Night Sillies!!

Eeeeeeeeeeehhhhk how the hell long IS that article?????? I couldn't keep reading.

I did see that the sensationalistic fetish-obsessed weasels got an easy fact wrong, as I kuhhhh-White regrettably saw the CSI episode mentioned. It wasn't CSI:Miami, it was the original Vegas one and was chock-full o' :ewwwface: moments.

So........we got him in today. Um, the doctor DID pull a wooden splinter out of that eye :blink: which could be the problem......but he is not entirely sure. (isn't that comforting?)

What the .. . <_<

Could be? :huh:

Is there another appt so someone WILL become entirely sure???????

a confession: I have a TERRIBLE fear of things going wrong and......

"Perish the thought" indeed . .. . .. .but this isn't exactly one of those Only In Dingoland moments.

These fears seem common, natural & unavoidable, imo.

I thought I'd share a few of boy boys' nicknames.

Heehee :)

OH!!! I remember my fav!!! :lol: Young McCauley Culkin as a young Richmeister - the "sharpenin' pencils" kid!!!! :lol:

Emily . . . juggling flaming cheese toilets? really? couldn't you come up with something more imaginative than that?

heyyyyyyyy . .. ...if there's some sort of corollary to being Bev'd I think I just had it done to me! :P

Oops . . . sorry tom, didn't mean to Bev you. That's what happens when you don't use actual quotes in your replies, somebody else gets the credit . . . it just seemed like something Emily would say when I was up too late and only the dingo half of my brain was working. My Bad!!!! (just 'cause I know Emily hates that frase :P )

Good Luck Sarah! You will always have to like/love what you are doing, it will make going to work so much easier and less stressful.

Good Morning Sillies!

Back at work again, Moody girl has been pleasant towards me this morning. That will be fine with me....since it will make the whole day go easier :)

:lol: I do "Ready, Freddy?" as well. Then Ezra says, "My name... is not... Freddy!!!" At which point I simply MUST reply, "FreddyFreddyFreddyFreddyFreddy!"

Hey, they torture us-- gotta get in a little payback once in awhile. :rolleyes:

Yep, squeamishness will not be much of an issue for me. (Squeamishness? Squeamiosity??)

Good Luck Sarah! You will always have to like/love what you are doing, it will make going to work so much easier and less stressful.

Thanks, Amanda! I agree. The nursing shortage is bad here too, so a lot of people are going into because it's a guaranteed job. While that aspect is nice, I feel like that's not a good reason to go into nursing. <_< I feel like it takes more than 1/2 a brain and a need for a paycheck. Nurses should WANT to be nurses.

Morning, Sillies!

Don't see Amanda here, yet. Hope her day goes more smoothly than yesterday. Amanda, even though it wasn't you reduced to tears by SL (Stalkerlady), you are still having the stress of a negative, at times unhealthy work enviornment. You should not underrate yesterday's shenanigans as something that should be disregarded because you weren't made into a blubbering mess. I really admire you for gritting your teeth and suffering fools gladly....but just take care of number one--you. :)

Back to Silly.....!

Got a big playoff hockey game tonight....DD is pumped. This team is the dirtiest in the division--rare at any level for girls. They slash, hit and check (this is non-contact) with reckless abandon, and are apparently coached to do so. They also (this makes me shudder) swear at and threaten our girls when they get in our faces as they're tied up with the puck...things like " you f**kin' li'l witch...watch for me"....They're clever, as most of it is missed by the less-than-stellar refs.

DH had Sophie out in the driveway last night, showing her ways to dodge a player who is charging into her. The trick is to try and make the save at the same time, which in DH's books seems as important as avoiding injury..... Hockey dads.... <_<:angry:

Nikki- I saw your Starry Starry Night picture, I have got to let you know I have that in a purse, I will try to find a picture and mail to you. My sister loves that painting, she even painted a mural of it on her bedroom wall when she lived at home. She has pillows, blankets, you name it. The purse is hers but I borrowed it on my honeymoon and forgot to return it :)

All I can say is OUCH. But I hope that's the problem. My sis had scratched 2 out of 3 layers of her cornea a month ago. She has NO idea how and the doc told her one more layer and every day would have been "Talk like a Pirate Day" :ph34r: Hopefully the abx will take care of it.

I love it!!!!!!! Kids crack up when you call them names. I personally like GooberHead, goof ball. I call my niece Olivia Princess Gooney Goo Goo (from the old Eddie Murphy skit). Her reply is always "I am NOT a gooney goo goo, I'm OLIVIA!!!!!!!"

I contort my kids' (and dogs') names all the time.

Angus is now Dingus, Dingie or Genghis. Weve actually been trying to trick him with "Genghis, KAHN!" instead of Angus, come.

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk. 
    • par18
      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
