OMG! EM! I may be your mom or her lost sister! My color combos often only make sense to me. I have been known to use markers in my hair to cover the gray or add highlights, and I need and would sooo wear the bikini bib.

Your mom's rehab center sounds more fun then my mom's. The big excitement is when I bring the dog. He runs amuck, knocking old crippled up people down. Actually, he is better behaved then a lot of the residents.

Hi Jen! We do move along quickly (some days). Try to keep up! :P

You can always read back as this website doesn't seem to delete anything.

How old are your kids? I have 4 boys 17 & 14, 50 & 3 (this one has 4 legs).

What do you guys do when your significant others are being 100% D-bags? Do you have a coping strategy? Argue logic, which they are apparently incapable of comprehending? Poison their food? Stay at a hotel until they're done being D-bags?

'Mornin', Peeeeps!

My brother has landed in town to be with Mom while my sister is out in Vancouver (left yesterday with four old girlfriends for a week away together - - what a blast, and well-deserved rest), and my family and I head to Toronto for meetings and a bit of sightseeing. Where is Soooozle? I need to set her up with bro... . . ...they are meant for each other, I just know it. Too much geography happenin'... . .. .

We're not married. Thank God.

THAT is the answer, methinks. .. ...

Usually, I ignore it because he is only that way for a short time. Good luck on the first day today!

Have a good time, Em...hope I'm not too late :P

Sills, I'm so sad :( Mark left this morning. I've been through this before, and know I'm being a wimp but I'm really sad right now. He was home all last week and we had such a nice time just hanging out.

Last night we had dinner at PF Changs with friends, which was a lot of phun.

Speaking of marriages. . ......Patteigh, it is so wonderful to suddenly read something from someone who really found the right person. It was obvious in just the little time that we spent with you and Mark - - you really seem like kindred spirits, and a seemingly little thing like being sad when Mark is gone for a while speaks volumes, and is a testament to what a great team you are!

Well. .. . .I kinda miss Will when he is gone.. . . .....like, it needs to be for a loooooong time, though... ...<_<:lol:

Just don't read Dr. Laura or you'll feel worse! :rolleyes: I tend to retreat to my room or the basement with a good book and/or movies. I try to go about my business and ignore him. Deep breathing helps too ;)

This is the sweetest thing!! I wish I felt this way....I agree wif Em (at least I think it was Em..... :blink: ), he'd have to be away for a long time :P

Cannae kick this cold. My head pheels like it will explode! Want to be home in bed, snuggled up wif Max--cuz that's the way it's been for the last 3 days :wub: , but he ditched me, said it was time to back to school :( Sooooo, I came to work. I've surrounded my work space wif sanitizer, gemicidal wipes, latex gloves and tissues. No one wants to come within 5 feet of me :rolleyes:

My daughter is 11 and my son is 7, then there is my husband (child lol) who is 33, and the four legged ones who are 6, 3, and 4 mos.

I've tried changing my picture to one with all 3 of my kids (hehe) in it but it always comes back to this one.

I miss Hub, too. But I enjoy it when he's gone for 1 night. I like to sit in bed & read & have a glass of wine. Hub thinks bed is for 2 things & one involves sleeping.

Or make bloody red icing... ;)

Sorry about the cold. We have a really crazy one going around here. Mostly adults getting it. My sinuses felt like they were slamming against the inside of my skull when I moved but that was the main thing.

Some times it takes a coulpe of tries to change my pic. And then it changes a few minutes later. The ways of the website are mysterious.

I'm pretty sure after you change your picture, you need to hit F5, that will update the photos :)

Aw, Pads, that is so sweet :wub: A true love match for sure :)

Me, I need my space :ph34r: Clay used to be away a couple of nights a week pre-retirement, and that was just poifect for me. Since retirement this "togetherness" ALL THE TIME! gets a big much for me. Don't fence me in :rolleyes:

You're durned right there, too mysterious for some of us. I tried to upload a pic from photobucket and even though it was a jpeg it kept telling me it was the wrong type of pic :angry: You know, one of this pink jobbies like when you have too many :blink::unsure::angry::rolleyes:

We are trying to plan out summer vacation. I thought we were going to San Diego, so I had everything planned out but nothing was purchased, then hubby shows up today to take me to coffee this morning and he mentions we can go to Waikiki for about the same price--chaCHING!!! I wanna go to HI, AND, one of my closest, dearest friends lives in Honolulu. It's POIFECT!!! Now----we have to convince the kids..... Madeleine will be super easy, we took her to Kona when she was 3.5 and she STILL asks when we're going to take her back. Max has his heart SET on LegoLand, but I'm hoping I can convince him with the prospects of making giant sand castles and swimming in the 5 pools (with waterfalls) at the hotel (Hilton Hawaiian Village!!!)!!!

Say a little prayer for meeeeeeeee :P

She would have to have really good eyes. It is about 25 miles to Oakville as the crow flies, more like 30 if you drive.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
