Well, he has tiled his bathroom, so he does know how to put his thumbs to good use, which is the most important thing after all.

Is talking about home remodel projects another thing on the 'not to do' list for dating? :blink:

I need an instruction manual.....

I think it's a good topic of conversation. If you both have it in common. Guys like to talk about stuff like that. Better than potty issues, parasites, and Yetis. :)

No way. Discussing these matters is a good thing. Manouvering the bloke into coming over to help you put up your drywall and rip up your linoleum - - THAT is superb.

Cannot believe my luck. :) As I was treading water in the gym pool this morning, my old friend Doreen floated over to me and asked if I would like FREE tickets and a parking pass to this show tonight:

Seems her daughter-in-law is a nurse, got two tickets as a gift from a patient, and has no desire to go.

Wow. We is going!

Gee, I may pop by fer a suit of armoUr and a couple chandielers :P Pseriously, yesterday we actually saw Danielle's house. I had seen the real estate ad posted on another board, and we happened to be driving through Wayne (Mark's office is there) and I saw a street name that I thought looked familiar--sure enough when I made Mark double back and drive up the street :lol: --there it was....all overgrown and still for sale. Deserted looking, and someone had toilet papered the front lawn :huh:

I have balls again.

Wow....didja miss 'em? :P

Floor is done! Ok, I have one tile left, but I ran out of mortar, and I still have to grout, but at least now the cabinets can go in.

Don't think I told you that we had electrical issues at the show on Saturday, and at one point all the lights on stage went out. I turned the house lights on, and the director (with two bad hips) climbed the little bunk bed ladder to get up into the lighting booth.

Someone called the (truly awesome)kid who did the lighting design, since he had been in that high school two years earlier, and he showed up and started unplugging things.

Turns out that since the drama department got a new adviser, who has no interest in drama, nothing is taken care of. The dimmers, which are like the biggest circuits you've ever seen, were covered in dust, and the heat and humidity were causing them to arc, short circuiting the lights. We made it to intermission and he pulled them out and blew the dust off each one. No more issues.

After the show they got a small air compressor and he cleaned each one carefully (all the time muttering about "those kids not taking care of things") and yesterday it all went well. I guess cleaning the dimmer board is one more thing we need to add to our move-in check list when we do a show.

The other exciting thing is that I happened to look at the electrical hookup for the sound system (which we don't use, we have our own) OMG! It's like one of those definitions of really bad things - about 100 cords and plugs all tangled together with multiple power strips and some random tape thrown in. Zoiks! It's amazing those unsupervised kids haven't burned down the building.

Hey, I noticed that there are a couple of Chippendales arm chairs and oversized candle holders on this list. Do some Chippendales Men come installed in these chairs? B)

I made 15 Jedi costumes yesterday and baked and froze 7 cakes!! 3 cakes for the Stormtrooper cake and 4 cakes for DD's masterpiece on the following weekend. Now I have to make 15 lightsabers out of pool noodles... I'm tired just thinking about this week, but excited! Should be lotsa fun!!

Crap.. I forgot to look at the thumbs. Sorry guys, I'll do better next time.

Next time wif this guy or you referring to the next guy... You hussy you ;)

Well, my next 'date' is 20 years older than the last guy. We're doing coffee so thumbs should be visible at all times.

You never know . . . he could have the thumbs of a 20 yr old.

Also keep in mind that the guys wif the smaller thumbs may put forth much more effort to ensure productivity...

I think it's a good topic of conversation. If you both have it in common. Guys like to talk about stuff like that. Better than potty issues, parasites, and Yetis. :)

I find guys think it's sexy and impressive when you know things about home improvement, cars and sports!

      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.
