Does she have her dress that matches the drapes all pressed and ready to doff?

He won't see her--she won't show up :o

Will she be wearing that styling dress?

Sorry to disappoint you but I left that dress to it's own devices :D

Get a thumb report. B)

My thumb or Poeter's thumb

the drapes in the kitchen are an orange coloUr. I don't think I have anything in my wardrobe that matches them. I will try and wear something that will clash nicely with them though.

How true Patti. I'm mostly wear blues and purples although not always together. Our wallpaper in the kitchen is old as well. It's a floral yellow print. What can i say but Poeter and I aren't really into decorating :D

So, Jacquie has a "hot" date with Tony the appliance technician in the morning. I'll be minding the store. ;)

It's a good choice. A hot date with a baker wouldn't get YOU anything.

And Tony has been and gone.

I miss read the 'thumb' comment yesterday :D I take a guess and say it's about 2 1/2 inches.

And we're waiting to see if we can get a thermostat for the stove. Apparently they haven't made Harvest Gold in a 'few' years :rolleyes:

The plot on how old the stove is got a little more interesting. The vent area of the stove is 'Avocado Green'. What were the original owners of the house thinking :rolleyes:

and did you know you can now get some appliances in 'Red' :eek:

Maybe they liked both and couldn't make up their minds? :P

The former owner told us about him--evidently he was so comfortable with them, he would eat out of their hands. With me, he's more comfortable with the glass door in between us while he eats.

We have inherited neighbors' scaredy cat - they couldn't find her when they moved to Oz after the 2nd quake. She has even been so bold as to (once) let us touch her head, but usually lurks in the bushes waiting for food at same time each night (just before darkness).

Jeeze, Simon takes a run at me each morning and bounces off my ankle to tell me I'd better feed him 'NOW'!!!!!! He does have quite the shag-a-dellic hair-do and I wonder how well he can see with all that hair in his eyes. Maybe I should put it in a ponytail and see if that helps :lol:

* snort * ColoUr references of 1970's appliances......I very vaguely recall our house having a great deal of orange throughout my early childhood. I particularly remember the big avacado phone sitting on the li'l special phone table in the hallway.. .. . ..... :lol:

How on earth did she ever manage to organize a perfectly matching dress to the wallpaper??

fig22.webp

:lol::lol::lol:

The first house Jesse and I bought when we were 23 had the avocado sink, toilet and bath with the pink tiles all around. We decorated around it to make it work, ended up kinda cute. I thought it might be a sore spot when we were trying to sell, but the house sold in 5 days, so I guess it wasn't that bad! :P

Might not be wallpaper . . . might be a curtain . . . which makes me think of Carol Burnett wearing the drapes in the Gone with the Wind parady.

Love, Love, Love this skit!!!! One of the funniest ever!!

      Son's legs shaking

      Hi, My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine...

      Son's legs shaking

      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...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      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...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      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...

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

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?

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.
