When you apply mascara, you raise your eyebrows, thus pulling the skin upwards, causing the mouth to gape open.

And in my case, this occurs simultaneously whilst holding the magnification mirror wif me left hand whilst applying said mascara wif me right. Of course, this means that I have to put down the mirror to re-load the brush wif mascara to do the second eye....

I lurve yelling at talking to little old men who are hard of hearing...

Me: Hi sir, my name is Rachelle, I'm going to take a look at your heart...

Him: What's yer name?

Me-louder: Rachelle!!

Him-louder: What??

Me-louder and slower: R-A-C-H-E-L-L-E, like MICHELLE, but with an "R"

Him: Oooohhhhhh.... You must be a pretty strong gal to be called Russell. Not many girls could handle a name like that...

Me: Yeah, that's right.... :blink::lol::lol:

kareng Grand Master

Sooooo, with the final prompt from my therapist yesterday, I started my cookbook today :o I don't know how long it will take or what I expect, but I've had so many people tell me I should.....so I am! I's skeert!! :huh:

All my cake recipes will be in there too...... ;)

I'll buy it! Can I get it autographed? Will you be using Russell as your "nom de plume?" (did I use that fancy French sounding phrase right?)

I've been outta the Great Phorum Loop -- is everyone, like me, sidelined and greatly handicapped by this new feature (or lack thereof) that no longer allows us to see past posts when we are posting? 'Tis quite... .. ..debilitating, at times... . .... ...I believe that this should be brought forward in the official minutes of the Moderators Only Section as an item to peruse.

Oh, yes.. . .. . .....and right beneath this, the question of why I cannot apply mascara with my mouth closed.

:huh:

Yes, I keep forgetting either what I want to say or who I'm saying it to.

Do your eyes close when you put on lipstick?

And in my case, this occurs simultaneously whilst holding the magnification mirror wif me left hand whilst applying said mascara wif me right. Of course, this means that I have to put down the mirror to re-load the brush wif mascara to do the second eye....

Reminded me of a conversation with my deaf student.

She also has difficulties with her reading and speech, so whenever she has to read something aloud, she points out words she doesn't know or can't pronounce, and we practice them, quietly, until it's her turn.

She had to write a paragraph on her opinion of same-sex classrooms.

She points.....

Me: sex

Her: stex

Me....sex

Her....seck

Me....sex

Her.....sex

RIGHT!!

stex

no....sex

stex

there's no T......ssseeeexxx

sss...ex

Right!

stex

:rolleyes: sex

That's the stupidest word I ever heard!

:lol: Geoss, I have Butt Paste in my drawer, from a FIERCE case of poison oak, many years ago (it did not work, was beyond the help of normal salves and required hospital visit(s) :huh:

Leesargh's microwave system, 'tis crazy, BUTT brilliant :lol:

'Morning, Pgang!

Methinks the Psilly thread should be broadcast through the intercoms of hospital recovery and observation areas -- professionals reading our lines, going through the posts in real time, with recap and summaries before shift-change. People would recover more quickly.....and even if they didn't, they would be larfin', and larfter ALWAYS helps.. . .. ..... .

'tis a CAPITOL IDEER! get it spread through the Commonwealth, at once

Does she know you drew them on? They may be preparing a bed for you in the "special" wing.

*snort* :lol:

Ahh --took me laptop to Best Buy last night, thinking I'd have to leave it wif the Geek Squad because it wouldn't recognize the router's signal anymore and I was getting weary of the pop ups it was generating every time I'd come on. The lovely geek had a look and proceeded to phix it right there. Evidently there's a single key on my model that will turn off the ability to obtain a signal :unsure: and I musta hit it by mistake whilst on-line late the other night wifout the lights on :ph34r: Annoying pop ups gone as well

:unsure: WHOT?

oh the HEINOSITY of tehcnology!!!!! <_<

No--that's the amazing part! I asked him what I owed him and he said--nothing!!

Pads - only you - all them free dinners at PF Chang's and such......you is blessed :wub:

She is faring well, it seems.

yay!!! :)

Sooooo, with the final prompt from my therapist yesterday, I started my cookbook today :o I don't know how long it will take or what I expect, but I've had so many people tell me I should.....so I am! I's skeert!!

WHOT? this is very exciting! And, as Pads has said, ARE YER dedicating it to yer Sills? ;)

Oh, yes.. . .. . .....and right beneath this, the question of why I cannot apply mascara with my mouth closed.

Tis quite simple......

When you apply mascara, you raise your eyebrows, thus pulling the skin upwards, causing the mouth to gape open. This is a sign of still young, tight skin.

I, on the other hand, no longer have young, tight skin, therefore I do not have a problem keeping my mouth shut.

However......it seems that some tightness-challenged women still apply make-up with mouth open. This is either due to poor memory (forgot that eyebrows no longer able to open mouth) or poor eyesight (and the erroneous belief that opening the mouth provides more light to shine on the optic nerve, thus improving vision)

good greef, Laydeez, don't y'all have a HUGE magnifying mirror at yer makeup stations? I NEVER have mouth open when applying mascara.......am looking into a HORRIFYING magnifier when applying makeup........mouth never opens (can only see one part of face when using - highly recommended and also highly horrifying) <_<

Just like my right thumb locks into a certain position, just like my mom's used to, and I have to use my other hand to straighten it out :P

Now let's see, what else can I blame on me mom? Don't get me started :lol: But the RA comes from me Dad :P Most of the other stuff, though, is maternally influenced, except my strong bones (read large frame as well ) and big head - barely a hat made to encase the brains bulging from this hulking skull of mine. I see they have finally changed the sizing to read "One Size Fits MOST!!

:lol: cracked me up, Shroom

Dear gawd, yes... .. . and hospitals are FULL of 'em.

Reminds me of a statistic I came across not long ago:

Researchers tell us that only about 25 percent of what is said can be understood by lipreading.

For example:

Suppose a woman says:

"This place is a mess! C'mon,

You and I need to clean this place up,

Your stuff is lying all over on the floor

and you'll have no clothes to wear tomorrow

unless we do the laundry right now!"

Her lip-reading husband will get:

blah, blah, blah, blah, C'MON

YOU AND I blah, blah, blah, blah,

blah, blah, blah, blah, ON THE FLOOR

blah, blah, NO CLOTHES blah, blah,

blah, blah, blah, blah, RIGHT NOW!

:rolleyes:

Do your eyes close when you put on lipstick?

:lol: Thank heavens, only when I'm putting it on my eyelids.. . . ..

Now on a pserious note Rah-shell.....you will be dedicating this book to the sillies, right? :P

We knew you when, and all......

Dear GAWD, yes. With accompanying photos of our choice avatars.. . . . ......

Russell! You is publishing a cookbook! This is really terrific. Good for you! Seeing your incredible baked works of art on Da Book keeps me thinking that you need to be really focusing on this... . ...such a talent. :)

Sounds like your not going for a name that evokes a wholesome mom & apple pie vibe? Perhaps something a little sexier?

A play on words......G F means one thing to us, but others may see it standing for sumphin else. After my cousin tasted my cooking, he was in love. He would message me every day telling me to have a G F day. I thought there was a double meaning behind it, and everyone else on da book just thought it meant good "f..k.ng" day. I thought it was heeelarious, especially when I found out he was only thinking gluten-free and not the other. he couldn't understand why people were making such a big deal. He's the one who first mentioned the cookbook and he even designed me a cover and sent it to me :) I adore him!!

My boyfriend should get this shirt for ME. He talks and I just kind of wander away in my mind..... it's not my fault, he repeats himself so much I can't stay tuned! The whole family just talks nonstop, it's genetic. They're Italian. He talks to me while I'm reading. I'm like, uh, honey? You know how you hate it when I talk during movies? Yeah, same thing here...... I don't know how he does it, but if I tried to talk that much I'd damage my vocal cords.... :lol: :lol:

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.

      Recently my daughter ate in nandos harlow I rang in advance to speak about the celiac protocals and learned that childs portion chicken nandinos is cooked on the same grill as garlic bread even if they are celiac! Even if you clean it this is not good practise and will be making many children ill. I learnt adults butterfly chicken cooked on a grill purely for chicken.  This is fine and what we ordered however nandos need to take note of your practises for the safety of celiac children. my daughter has been ill from their nandinos chicken before and i emailed head office and they wouldnt accept responsibility 
    • Scott Adams
      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.
