Is it really that bad to go to a quick-y place? I've always had my mother cut my hair, but she's in Florida and I need a haircut. I haven't paid for a haircut in ten years, so I don't really know what the protocol is. Help! Do I need to spend a hundred bucks for a trim?!?!

They really aren't that bad. We used to go to them all the time.....especially if you're only getting a trim. I wouldn't go for a perm, though.

My hubby used to be a body builder when we were dating....hubba hubba. The muscles in his thighs and butt were so big he couldn't get pants to fit......had to wear polyester. Pants weren't made 'loose fit' back then.

'Morning, Gang!

Ah, bargain haircuts. .... .. . ....I go all the time to First Choice (are they in the States? Not sure).. . ......where they charge fourteen bucks for a cut. With tip it's over sixteen, and I go frequently for trims, so I don't even think the price is really cheap, particularly for DH who hasn't much hair left, or The Ripper, whose trim takes ten minutes. I cannot imagine spending sixty, seventy bucks for a cut, as friends do - - nutty!

I've found one woman who is very good there, and I just go to her.

I really do wonder why she works there, and not at a trendy boutique/spa where she would make four times the money. Perhaps she is a great stylist, but stupid. Hell, that would be okay - - she's trimming my hair, not marking my doctoral thesis... . .. . .... :lol:

Group babysitting--interesting.....but who's gonna be in charge of the spankings if he's naughty :o

Sorry Em

(((((Hands over ears)))))) LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA. .. .. . ...Can't hear you!!!! :lol:

Thank GAWD for spandex. . .........crap, I've entered middle age JUST at the right time.. . . . .....

Wow, all of the worst of the worst must all move down here. My kids and I have been butchered so many times at various quicky places around town, I won't ever do it again. You end up spending twice as much paying someone else to fix it. I take Max to a barber and they charge 12$, My stylist charges me 25$ for Maddie, which is worth it since her hair is long, thick and curly. And I pay 50... But she's soooo worth it!!! And it's only about every 4 months.... :rolleyes:

Here's my nephew :)

Whoa, and giggle. Don't know why it made me giggle :P

This is my nephew ;)

Aw...thanks for the song Karen. Actually, this used to be one of my faves. Brings back VERY happy memories of sitting in a diner with my Auntie Ann, my mom and my sister drinking orange freezes. I ALWAYS picked this song on the little jukebox in our booth :wub: :wub:

Hmmm....we needs to build us an ark here- it has been raining all month. The major river that runs from Boston into the suburbs hasn't risen this high since 2 hurricanes back in the 1950's! Crazy!

I got nutting! Geoss- I LOVE that song. Cheesy 70's songs=gooooodddd. Bring on the Barry White!

You're old enough some people say

To read the signs and walk away.

It's only time that heals the pain

And makes the sun come out again... . . .......

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
