ok but wait - - I only eat and write left-handed. Everything else is strong right - tennis, batting, etc. etc. and kick w/ right foot.......

:wacko:

Me, too. Though I prefer to eat right handed because I bump elbows if I eat left handed. But I eat just as easily with my left hand as my right.

With some practice, I could write right handed .... I will sign my name, or write something short with my right hand if I'm holding something in my left.

When I was a child, I was totally ambidextrous .... did not know my right from my left for years!

Why do you think I'm called curlyfries?

I assumed you loved curly fries :lol::lol:

Wow, lots of curly haired lefties, I thought we were the minority :lol:

I also just eat and write with my left hand, I do most everything else with my right hand.

So I went outside, and sure enough-- Ezra is standing under the tree, pitiful look on his face, head stuck to the bird feeder. :rolleyes:

:lol::lol: Poor Ez! You've painted this picture so well, Sarah....I can see him so clearly....

Em, congrats on yer pap and your convoluted cervix. I have the same. :ph34r: (v. painful paps as quite hard to access :o )

This guy made the dreaded test pain-free, and speedy as hell.....quite a magic man. He should be given a key to the city, methinks.

And I didn't even pull out the sparkles!

Don't have any in the house, as my kids seem to have outgrown them, and all the crafty things they entail...I do still have some peel-and-stick Ottawa Senators tattoos, and I thought of putting one right where he'd be descending, as we have talked in the past about being loyal fans.

Next year.

Patti - gloss-black stool to go w/ yer chairs. :lol: Yes, since WHEN have we been painting our stools?

:o Whoa...black stools....hemmorroids?

Yep.....that'll be me! I have a totally dyslexic brain when it comes to right handed gadgets :wacko: I didn't figure out until I was 18 why my shoes never stayed tied :blink: I was tying them 1/2 left handed and 1/2 right handed!

I'm a southpaw, as well...always had trouble with can openers.... :angry:

I had a thought about the quicksand one, you know you don't hear so much about quicksand anymore. It used to be in a movie or two, and several tv shows...oh, it's the dreaded quicksand, however will they get out....... but no, not so much anymore.

It's true...where is all the quicksand? Where are all the travelling vacuum salesmen?

Hmmmmm.....could there be a relationship there?

I do remember a few classic things like the Puffy Shirt, or the Man Bra, the Soup Nazi......

the ones who like mathS are the ones who are right-handed w/ the straight hair. All others, if I'm not mistaken, DO NOT like the mathS...........

Righty here. Strongly Right-eyed even :blink:

......do y'all remember the episode when George abstained from sex and became smarter, Elaine participated and got increasingly dumber..........so - -she's standing in front of this - what in hell was it? - rotating helix-type shape - maybe in front of a tire store er sumfin'? and it's going round and round......and she's standing in front of it, her head going round and round, mimicking the motion of the thing-y, with a huge, dopey grin on her face.......and she's laughing like a simpleton and clapping her hands with glee................... :lol:

so that's what I was doing.

:blink:

:lol:

I remember it well .. ...George's girlfriend wanted to try celibacy. He ended up gettin' back in the game w/ a Portugese waitress.

I can picture Elaine in her long brown winter coat in front of the tire store, clapping black-gloved hands w/ that moronic glee. :lol:

Susie? Tri-tip? Good? Edible?

Why am I so blah again today? Yesterday seemed to be SO on the upswing.

:(

Did I see Patti & Susie say they have curly hair??

Curly haired and right handed, here-- strongly-- right armed, right legged, and definitely right eared!

Both of my boys are right handed, but Brian started out as a leftie... he saw all the other five-year-olds writing with their right hands, though, and switched!

yes, curly hair here. and I LOATHE it - - just want long, silky tresses....... :angry:

Tri tip was VERY good! So easy - put it on the grill, flip it once, and go get it when you remember it. :lol: Weezee had NEVER EVER been so interested in being outside at night - - I've never barbecued while living in this house (three years) and she was out of her dingo-addled mind........kept revisiting the area of the exquisite smell.......in and out and in and out, long after the meat was in the fridge, the look on her face a mix of joy, pleasure, loss and pain all at once. :lol:

Pthghaoeughaaaaaaaaaghmn - - <------- *snigger* :lol:

These bad days........ :( so heinous......I've had several in a row lately and feel sooooooooooo tired, so dull, so flat and worthless.........I don't know what's up (save for today) but I do clearly know I'm not being as careful w/ food as in the past. Taking more risks all the time.......not good.

Yes....mine has been "relaxed" for the past couple of years but I'm seriously thinking of stopping that and wearing it natural again. Too much wear and tear on the ol' mane B) Of course, this plan will entail a substantial haircut......what to do???? :huh:

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3. Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C. Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine. Weight...

      Insomnia help

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep. One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem. Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read,...

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Lkg5 · Posted

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!
