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!

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:

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.

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!

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein. Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat...

      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...

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      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 gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. 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.
