I'm sure I got stuff he can fix. Bring him when you come to get yer NikWax.

Turns out my baby was just goofing with his bro's welding mask. Baby M was building wood & metal shelves. Big bro J will weld the parts that need it. Love it when they learn practical skills.

Sometimes they just need to realize what they could lose. :P

Since both BE and I commute, the only time we could really go out is Saturday. Fridays he's not home until 8:30, which is late for me. I suppose dinner in Seattle would work, but he'd still have to drop me off at home, and then leave..... :ph34r::P :P Dunno. Have to think about this. Once the weather improves we can do weekend hikes n' stuff. Not such a fun prospect this time of year though.

I was the one who had crazy hours in the TV business. I would go to Clark's house on a Thursday night after work and go grocery shopping. Then quietly (most nights) crawl into bed. He'd be at work Friday but I saw him Friday night (either I would have cooked or we'd go out - believe me I saw early on that cooking wasn't his forte). Then I had to go to work on Saturday. He'd visit me during the week when he could but since I didn't get home until midnight or later (sometimes 2 or 3) it was an interesting courtship to say the least. It stood the test of time (together 22 years and married 19). It was well worth it for me to work around our schedules and eventually when we had Tony I took an early severance package and got to stay home. You have to decide if it's worth it. I wouldn't trade Clark for the world although we'd both like to throttle each other at times (by now we know all the buttons t push). BE sound very special but we also know what a treasure you are so if you decide to take the hassle of his schedule it's his good fortune!!!!

P.S. Just read that you wanted the break. Again, you are an awesome lady and BE would be lucky to have you as his lady!!!!!!!!! And good sex is a good thing. Believe me after 22 years one of us always seems to be asleep - which I will rectify (tee-hee)

Well, I'm done work for the year. ;)

As some of you know, I have two computers, both of which are several years old.

The tower PC in my home office is six years old, and has been struggling with memory problems. I upgraded the memory today from 256 Mb to 1.2 Gb. It now outperforms my notebook, but is not portable.

Do you have any idea how big the dust bunnies get inside a CPU that has not been opened in six years? :ph34r:

I should have done it long ago. It has been suffering from memory deficiency for a long time. A gigabyte of additional memory cost me 54 bucks. :)

Going up to visit Jacquie's family tomorrow. Then a quiet evening at home.

Happy New Year to all my treasured psilly phriends.

Peter, I'll buy the part and pay you $ 54 to clean the dust bunnies out of my memory and install a new faster brain in my head.

Happy New Year, other side of the world!

On my side of the world, we are trying to get in all the weather types possible before midnight. Warm (60F), tornados, thunderstorms, heavy winds and ice turning to a little snow. My neighborhood is in the icy stage moving towards the snow stage.

      I made it through the holiday w/o being glutened. I had my brother cook with gluten-free breadcrumbs and I didn't get sick. I baked cookies with gluten-free flour and had dry ingredients for cookies in ziplock bag. I also made gluten cookies as well and guess I did good washing to avoid CC. My wife also went to a french bakery and bought a gluten-free flourless chocolate cake dedicated gluten-free it was out of this world.

      What do you mean it would not allow any celiac to eat gluten again. I think if this helps cross contamination when eating out at a non dedicated gluten-free restaurant this would be nice not to encounter the pains. But is their a daily enzyme to take to help strengthen the digestive system?

      Hi, thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, no other antibody tests were ordered. I am a 32-year-old male. About two months ago, I ate pancakes and then developed severe diarrhea that lasted the entire day. At night, I became unconscious due to fluid loss and was admitted to the ER, where I received IV fluids. Two days later, I ate bread again and once more developed severe diarrhea. I ended up in the ER again and received IV fluids. In my country, Pakistan, doctors are unfortunately not very thorough, so they treated me for a stomach infection. I visited three or four doctors, including a gastroenterologist, but it seemed like they just wanted to keep me on medications and IV fluids. Eventually, I did some digging myself and started connecting the dots. For years, I’ve had excessive gas buildup and frequent loose stools, but I never paid much attention to it. I also cannot easily digest dairy products. Two years ago, I had a CBC test that showed iron deficiency. My doctor told me to eat more meat and said it was nothing serious. However, for the past five years, I’ve also had severe motion sickness, which I never experienced before. Whenever I get on a bus or in a car, I sometimes lose consciousness for 10–20 seconds and wake up sweaty, and occasionally I feel the need to vomit. After more research on the internet, I came across gluten and celiac disease, so I got two related tests (TTG-IgA & TTG IgG) done along with a stool test and another CBC. The stool test showed weakly positive blood. Ever since eating those pancakes and bread, I’ve had a burning sensation in my gut. My doctor reviewed my tests, he told me to completely stop eating gluten and started me on IV fluids for 20 days, saying that I had severe inflammation in my gut. It has now been two months since I quit gluten, and I’m still not sure whether this is celiac disease or gluten intolerance. I don’t really trust doctors in Pakistan, so I thought I might get some help here.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SamAlvi! Were there any other antibody tests ordered? Particularly, was there a "total IGA" test ordered to check for IGA deficiency. When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—
