Don't EVEN git me started!!!! There's 1 freakin white tile in the middle of the new-still unfinished-bathroom that sticks up a good 1/4 inch above the rest. I'm clutzy enough to trip over that sucker daily!

:lol: We are in the same boat...I just had a cup o'tea and a Lara Bar. Lunch....

I've been at work since 0630. All I've had is a cup o coffee and an Odwalla bar <_< I WANT ICE CREAM!!!!!

Friends of ours in Jersey had their kitchen floor tiled "professionally", and within a year some of the tiles cracked because the contractor didn't level the floor correctly. They had to have it all redone.

Did I tell yooz guys I dyed me hair GINGER?? :ph34r:

WIH?!?!..... t'was an impulse..... to get rid of the ever increasing grEy, but not sure if it ain't TOO LOUD!!

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! The color & the curls!

Well, I decided the tile people were way too expensive so me friend and I are gonna do it, heat and all :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

Rent a really good tile saw. We did a backsplash with a hand cutter. Hubs hand almost didn't recover.

...Al & me watching 'Dr Who' (he is OBSESSED!!...t'is the highlight of his week)

Haven't seen that show in years. My father stills watches it. When my brother got married about 20 years ago, his wife made him a coat like the Dr Who at that time wore as his wedding present.

And the verdict is......??????

Bought a tile cutter. Plan to do my bathroom too. And maybe my able-bodied-assistant's kitchen, if we can talk her mom into it. She wanted the humongoid $160 cutter but the sales person talked her out of it.

The Special Needs department provided lunch for the assistants.......and it was Q'doba's!!!!!!!! I was in heaven!!. No rice, but lettuce was fine with me :)

Nikkers.....love the hair! I've thought of going some shade of red, but don't think I could pull it off.

Love Purely Decadent ice cream. Haven't had it in a whale while (thought this was funny, so I left it in, but still had to edit....just a tad OCD about things like that). I wonder if agave would give me the same problems as sugar? :unsure:

Lovely day, today. Hubby and I went garage-saleing on his motorcycle :D

We had to use our excess bathroom tiles to weight down the bottom of Emileigh's "kitty condo"; this dainty miss weighs in at over 16 lbs and the top floor of the condo is cantilevered :unsure: (or at least it used to be until we put a supporting member underneath) :rolleyes: Well, Maine Coons are BIG kitties:D

This was a gluten-free day at our house! M had to do a family project for scouts so he and I made 2 kinds of gluten-free pizza crusts. We hadn't tried to yet. We made Chebe and gluten-free Pantry. Both came out good. We have ways to improve them next time. We just had the ice cream - Turtle Tracks and PB chocolate. Very yummy. Boys didn't like the turtle tracks because it tasted coconutty. Hub really liked the TT because it tasted coconutty. Thanks for the recomendation.

Well, apparently my fears on that front were completely unfounded. I guess the days I was interviewing and stuff people were wearing their dull clothes, because I haven't got anything remotely as flashy as what some of those girls are wearing. But the new job is really great. They really do train you and pay attention to what you're doing, it's awesome. I'm tired of places that don't actually take the time to train you what to do.

Gah! Must get on Phacebook to scope out the details, but what TERRIFIC news about Nathan, Leeeese! :D What an amazing story he has to tell - - well, your entire family's story, really - - this jaw-dropping journey through the last couple o' years.. .. . .... ..I'm telling you, it's a book!

Gnick! You need to take this plant out of its pot and nestle it in your hair.. . ......wear it about like Carmen Miranda!. .. ..Wait.. . . .:unsure:....she had fruit in her hair... . ......

Phantastic!!!! I wish I had his energy! He's been mountain biking, hiking, planting trees, installing gutters, building a pergola, putting in a vegetable garden, finalizing his research, writing papers.......it wears me out just thinking about it!

Since he finished his rounds of chemo in November, he has had two maintenance doses. The first made him pretty nauseous, but this last one was fine. His doc had changed his ant-nausea meds. The doc is giving him these doses occassionally as a safe-guard. His was such an unusual case, they don't know what to expect. You will very likely see his case in the medical journals one day. Anywho....this chemo does not keep him from getting out and doing things. :D

Quick poop in cause I HAD to share this with you all. It's ridiculously awesome (and VERY cute!).

Since 2008, two French hikers have chronicled their trek from Miami, FL to the tip of South America, a journey of 15,000km (about 9,320 miles) through 13 countries.

But what elevates this hike down a hemisphere straight into the Cuteosphere is the third member of the team: A stray kitten who joined them in Louisiana.

However, the shoes are great! After my 12 hell yesterday, I was down a pound! Down 4, 8 to go!! May all go to hell this week since we'll be in Victoria.... Afternoon tea at the Empress hotel may screw it all up, but for 55$ per person, you'd better believe I'm gonna eat anything and everything they set in front of me!! ;)

      Hmm, I think you mean the Gluten Intolerance Group®?  Their website is not gig.net.  Maybe it was at one point?  I am new to all of this, but did find their website here:  https://gluten.org/ Kind Regards, Known1

      @Scott Adams, You're right about corn and wheat not sharing similarities in the 33-mer peptide segment of gluten.  Corn has a completely different peptide that causes an autoimmune reaction because it attaches to HLA-DQ8.  Casein in dairy shares with wheat similarities in the33-mer peptide chain. Sorry about the oversimplification.  Maize Prolamins Could Induce a Gluten-Like Cellular Immune Response in Some Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3820067/
    • Scott Adams
      I just want to mention that corn and wheat do both contain storage proteins (corn has zein, wheat has gliadin and other gluten proteins), and there are some small similarities in certain amino acid sequences. However, those similarities are not considered medically equivalent, and corn proteins do not trigger the autoimmune response of celiac disease in the vast majority of people with celiac. Celiac disease specifically involves an immune reaction to gluten peptides found in wheat, barley, and rye. Corn is classified as gluten-free because its proteins do not activate that same immune pathway in most individuals. Although corn intolerance is very real, the explanation about the proteins being the same is oversimplified to the point where it's not accurate.

      @Heatherisle, Newly diagnosed people often suffer from nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B1 stores can be depleted within a few weeks.  Thiamine deficiency can be localized in the gastrointestinal tract causing Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  It is under diagnosed by doctors!  Dysfunction of the gallbladder can be seen in Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   Have your daughter mention the possibility of Gastrointestinal Beriberi to her dietician!  Gastrointestinal Beriberi will be improved with high dose Thiamine administration, orally or by IV.  It's important to have thiamine deficiency corrected as quickly as possible to prevent life threatening health problems and risk permanent damage.   I had Gastrointestinal Beriberi but my doctors did not recognize it.  I had diarrhea.  I had my gallbladder removed (gallbladder attack).  Still had diarrhea.  My thiamine deficiency progressed to Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors diagnosed me as "depressed".   I corrected the thiamine deficiency at home with over the counter Thiamine Hydrochloride tablets.  I'm very thankful I studied Nutrition.   See if the symptoms match:  Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Gastrointestinal Beriberi Presenting With Chronic Diarrhea: A Case Report https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12794365/

      Thiamine and other B vitamins are available without a prescription, but it's always best to discuss supplementing with your doctor and dietician.   I take Thiamine Hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD.  (Avoid Thiamine Mononitrate because it's not well absorbed or used by brain f bodies.)  Benfotiamine especially helps heal the gastrointestinal tract.  Thiamine TTFD is great for improving brain function and mood.  They all work to improve everything, but Thiamine TTFD through the blood brain barrier the easiest, so the brain starts working to control everything better. Every form of Thiamine needs magnesium to make enzymes.  I like Magnesium Threonate which enters the brain more easily than other forms.  Low magnesium contributes to anxiety and depression.  The eight B vitamins all work together, so a B Complex is a good idea.  Don't worry if it already has thiamine in it.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   I get mine online.
