Her favorite soup isn't potato is it? That would be really spooky.

Its hard on FB because I feel I have to be brief. I know girls are different than boys but I think some things translate. About 3rd or 4th grade, my kids wanted more say in thier lives.

I'm totally wif ya. I think I really do a good job about picking my battles with them and letting certain things slide. I am a bit of a neat freak, but as far as their rooms and playroom go, I'm not too much of a stickler. I am very strict about homework though. She gets her homework pkt on Monday and all is due by Friday, so we figure out what can be done each night so that she's not overwhelmed or working on it for hours on end. If she wants to work ahead, that's fine with me.

I try to be respectful to lead as example and in turn, I expect them to do the same. We all have bad days, and I totally understand that. If she had asked me to stay up later without thowing a massive tantrum, like it was her right to stay up if she wanted to, I may have made a different decision, but I had to say no. I also try to be very consistant with punishment, but make compromises if possible. Like last night--'no you may not stay up because of your behavior, but if you can get everything done tomorrow night, I'll give you an extra half an hour then' If that's not good enough for her, then I will rescend my offer and go from there. I think normally I'm pretty fair. Normally, she doesn't act like a bat outta hell either :blink::lol:

Slowly getting better :)

Physical Therapy is now twice a week, but I'm also trying to get in Zumba twice a week. Went out on our boat for the first time in 2 years, but stayed in the boat, pulling Brian around on the knee board and making sure he gets around on the boat and getting back IN the boat without hurting himself :ph34r:

I can hail a taxi, show disapproval with hands on hips (well, with a little effort), but can't point to that thing back there. I can sign 'a long time ago', but not 'boss'. I still can't hook my bra like normal people or SCRATCH THAT ITCH NEAR MY RIGHT SHOULDER BLADE!!! :angry:

If that's not good enough, I'm prepared to make you another offer. 1/2 hr earlier? Hub does that to the boys. I need 30 minutes of help with the yard work. 20 minutes, Dad? Ok 45!

OK, now I'm asking dating advice from people who have been married since time began, but you are the most knowledgeable group of people I know so....

When we said goodbye last night he said something about getting together again soon. I emailed him today just saying thank you and how much fun it was and how I hoped we could swap travel stories again soon. He replied with 'yes, let's do this again soon'.

Now, does this mean I'm supposed to propose a time and place? Or do I wait and let him pursue? I never did understand these rules. :huh:

He probably doesn't either. :P

Keeping in mind that I have been married 25 years as of Oct 5, this is what I would probably do. You will have to judge if he seemed interested at the dinner. If you think he is, I would wait 3-4 days, maybe a week then suggest a date. Is there something you could ask him to do with you like go to a play or art fair?

You mean if they argue on time, like working 20 min instead of dad's proposed time of 30, then he makes them work for 45?! That's AWESOME!!!

Max does that with cookies--"Mom, can I have 5 cookies?" "No Max, how about 2?" With a twinkle in his eye, he looks at me with sad eyes, "OK, I guess 2 is ok...." Then runs off happily :lol::lol:

Yeah, I might have to agree.... Seen the movie 'He's Just Not That Into You?"...

I haven't, but it makes sense. And I'd like to be chaste chased anyway.

Also works like this: you can have $30 for new football gloves. Anything more, you put in the money. Can I have $40? OK, $25.

A side note is that if you cannot reasonably get the gloves for less than $45, ask Dad to go look at them with you. When he sees this, he will up the amount but not for the $90 gloves.

Outsmarting children can be exhausting! :lol:

It's funny. It follows a bunch of different dating people in this new technology age. There's a lot of bluntness going on, which I wish my friends had done for me when I was dating. Woulda saved me a TON of time and tears :rolleyes:

Outsmarting children can be exhausting! :lol:

And fun!!! I'm getting more creative by the day!

Max didn't want to come home from daycare yesterday so I made this elaborate plan for him on how he could stay at the school, where he could sleep, what he could eat... He just looked at me like I was crazy. I asked him if I could have a hug good-bye which confused him even more. Finally, when I was walking away telling him to 'have fun', he ran after me, still looking at me like I was crazy ;)

Baby steps, Leesiguh :rolleyes: Glad to hear things are slowly improving.

Or do I wait and let him pursue?

Yep--and I wouldn't count him out just yet. Everyone has their own pace ;)

Keep in mind that I haven't dated since 1974 B)

Yes, I would wait to hear from him, but not for too long. Put on your Nikes, get ready for the chase, but be prepared to untie them, throw them off and continue along the dating path, barefoot and ready for new encounters with fellow runners...

Don't think you'll need to be sporting brown pants at any point... . . .. .. ..:unsure:At least, I HOPE not.......

Shroooomie's getting a new toof! Gawd, don't think YOU'LL need brown pants, just a pair with mighty deep pockets. I still canna believe what I hadda pay for my implant (tooth, not breast).. . . . . . ..man, I paid that oral surgeon's rent for a few months, to be sure.... :blink::angry:

A Leeeesargh sighting! Hope you're scratching everywhere soon! ;)

I don't know what the dating rules are nowadays, but if you want to be persued, wait it out. You've let him know you're interested in another date. The ball is in his court. I gotta feelin he'll come through ;)

      Son's legs shaking

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      By trents · Posted

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By trents · Posted

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By jenniber · Posted

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
