All right, so we are on the subject of growing up with our respective moms. ...... . What were your mother's nickname(s) for you? I had one, and it was given to all of us kids at various times:

Poop-nose.

:huh:

:lol::lol:

:lol: :lol:

Lots. I don't think anyone in my family actually uses our given names.

Jenner-poo

Sis

Dot

Jean-Jean-Jellybean

Lady Jane

hmm. Have to think on more. Those were (and are) the most common.

My poor sister became "The Dreaded Leafstalker". We still call her "Leaf" or Leafo"

Gads. Got new glasses. Bifocals (OH SHUT UP!)

It's like being on a roller coaster every time I move my head. By the end of the day I'm either gonna have a stiff neck from not moving, or be puking my lunch out from motion sickness.

She did however, when I was in my twenties and had dropped a huge jug of iced tea all over the kitchen floor and could NOT stop laughing about it, say, "Bev- You are such an A$%shole!" The ONLY time I ever heard her swear! Made me laugh even harder!

:lol::lol:

Yes..... . ..! :unsure: We need one o' Ptaoughmghmn's loud, official Summonings. . . . ..

....or maybe a magic word--like "teabag" fer Bevvie :D I'll have to think on this and get wif Julie...... B)

Bifocals (OH SHUT UP!)

<snicker> But pseriously, I remember when Matt phurst got glasses in second grade. We went out to lunch after, he got out of the car and the poor kid promptly fell on his phace :o

Me mom's nickname fer me has always been Trish.......could be worse. Me sister, who's 8 years younger than me used to call me "P" when she was little. At my 6th grade play, in which I was the narrator :P , my parents, grandparents, and lil sis were in the audience. After I led the Pledge of Alliegance, and the auditorium was quiet, me sis yelled out from the audience--"HI P!!!". It was so embarassing then, but charming to think back on now :D

I'm writing a grant for the theater group I'm involved with. The granting organization wants you to own a building or something that you can name after this guy. We don't own any structures so I'm proposing that we build a prop that will be in every show. The guy will be listed as a cast member and have an increasingly long bio. :o:P

Hi Guys! Reading along and catching up. Hugs for all whether you need it or not.

My mom didn't have many nicknames for us.....but my oldest sister gave some of the sibs names. My mom used Lady Jane when she was mad at us...so we wouldn't hate our own names (although I remember too many times she used our full names when angry anyway). How we all hated hearing Lady Jane!!! There are so many of us that mom would start at the top and work her way down. Because I'm near the bottom she often gave up and said.."Oh! You know who you are!" Still does it....so cute! "Kat-Na-Pat-Bi-Day.....Oh" :D

A lot of those things "Mom Taught Me" sound just like my mom! She had lots more, too.

BI-FOCALS!!!! Welcome to the club! I hated mine (still don't like 'em much). I like to hike...first time out with those I couldn't tell where the ground was. Couldn't walk and look around at the same time. Now I read without my glasses (book almost crushing my nose) because I can't read with my glasses on anymore :lol: .

Hang in there Psuessle! Things'll get better soon!

Forot what else......hope everyone is doing all right....at least upright and breathing.

Good morning, Psillies!

Wow, it's incredible.....this past week my house has been SOOOO clean, my prepared dinners SO delicious and admirably presented, my dogs SO content at their added walk, Jack's homework SO much better covered and understood, my classes SO thoroughly prepared and presented. . . . ......

.....Because it has been SOOOO quiet in the Ville. :lol::rolleyes:

But I hate it! No pressure to fit it all into my day. . . ....

Get back here, everybody!!

Mark's back! Now it's the final push, Pahteigh......how exciting!!

Suddenly heading to Toronto next week for a couple of nights. DH has to go on business, so we are gonna tag along. We will see Jersey Boys (anyone seen it?) and hit the CN Tower, and likely the AGO.... . . ..a quick visit to the Island to see my brother, and back we come. I like these quick, crazy trips - - perhaps the next time we come we will plan to meet again for pizza, POeter! :)

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
