Well, he has tiled his bathroom, so he does know how to put his thumbs to good use, which is the most important thing after all.

Is talking about home remodel projects another thing on the 'not to do' list for dating? :blink:

I need an instruction manual.....

I think it's a good topic of conversation. If you both have it in common. Guys like to talk about stuff like that. Better than potty issues, parasites, and Yetis. :)

No way. Discussing these matters is a good thing. Manouvering the bloke into coming over to help you put up your drywall and rip up your linoleum - - THAT is superb.

Cannot believe my luck. :) As I was treading water in the gym pool this morning, my old friend Doreen floated over to me and asked if I would like FREE tickets and a parking pass to this show tonight:

Seems her daughter-in-law is a nurse, got two tickets as a gift from a patient, and has no desire to go.

Wow. We is going!

Gee, I may pop by fer a suit of armoUr and a couple chandielers :P Pseriously, yesterday we actually saw Danielle's house. I had seen the real estate ad posted on another board, and we happened to be driving through Wayne (Mark's office is there) and I saw a street name that I thought looked familiar--sure enough when I made Mark double back and drive up the street :lol: --there it was....all overgrown and still for sale. Deserted looking, and someone had toilet papered the front lawn :huh:

I have balls again.

Wow....didja miss 'em? :P

Floor is done! Ok, I have one tile left, but I ran out of mortar, and I still have to grout, but at least now the cabinets can go in.

Don't think I told you that we had electrical issues at the show on Saturday, and at one point all the lights on stage went out. I turned the house lights on, and the director (with two bad hips) climbed the little bunk bed ladder to get up into the lighting booth.

Someone called the (truly awesome)kid who did the lighting design, since he had been in that high school two years earlier, and he showed up and started unplugging things.

Turns out that since the drama department got a new adviser, who has no interest in drama, nothing is taken care of. The dimmers, which are like the biggest circuits you've ever seen, were covered in dust, and the heat and humidity were causing them to arc, short circuiting the lights. We made it to intermission and he pulled them out and blew the dust off each one. No more issues.

After the show they got a small air compressor and he cleaned each one carefully (all the time muttering about "those kids not taking care of things") and yesterday it all went well. I guess cleaning the dimmer board is one more thing we need to add to our move-in check list when we do a show.

The other exciting thing is that I happened to look at the electrical hookup for the sound system (which we don't use, we have our own) OMG! It's like one of those definitions of really bad things - about 100 cords and plugs all tangled together with multiple power strips and some random tape thrown in. Zoiks! It's amazing those unsupervised kids haven't burned down the building.

I made 15 Jedi costumes yesterday and baked and froze 7 cakes!! 3 cakes for the Stormtrooper cake and 4 cakes for DD's masterpiece on the following weekend. Now I have to make 15 lightsabers out of pool noodles... I'm tired just thinking about this week, but excited! Should be lotsa fun!!

Crap.. I forgot to look at the thumbs. Sorry guys, I'll do better next time.

Next time wif this guy or you referring to the next guy... You hussy you ;)

Well, my next 'date' is 20 years older than the last guy. We're doing coffee so thumbs should be visible at all times.

You never know . . . he could have the thumbs of a 20 yr old.

Also keep in mind that the guys wif the smaller thumbs may put forth much more effort to ensure productivity...

I think it's a good topic of conversation. If you both have it in common. Guys like to talk about stuff like that. Better than potty issues, parasites, and Yetis. :)

I find guys think it's sexy and impressive when you know things about home improvement, cars and sports!

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      Geography makes a difference.  I'm in the West and Trader Joe's gluten-free bread tastes great and is a better price than most gluten-free breads sold elsewhere in my area.

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?

      By the time I was 5 I had my first auto0immune disorder, Migraine headaches, with auras to blind me, and vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound. I was 5 years old, and my stepfather would have pizza night, milling his own flour, making thick cheesy gluten pizza, that I would eat and the next day, I would have serious migraines, and my mother & stepfather did nothing about my medical problems. When I was 17 in my first year at college, I was diagnosed with my 2nd known auto-immune disorder, Meniere's disease. I was a elite athlete, a swimmer, and soccer player. And once again my parents didn't think anything of understanding why I had a disorder only older people get. Now after my mother passed from Alzheimer's disease she also suffered with living with gluten. She had a rash for 30 years that nobody could diagnose. She was itchy for 45 years total. My brother had a encapsulated virus explodes in his spleen and when this happened his entire intestines were covered with adhesions, scar tissue and he almost lost his life. He has 5 daughters, and when I finally was diagnosed after being pregnant and my body went into a cytokine storm, I lost my chance to have children, I ended up having Hashimoto's disease, Degenerative Disc disease, and my body started to shut down during my first trimester. I am 6ft tall and got down to 119lbs. My husband and I went to a special immunologist in Terrace, California. They took 17 vials of blood as we flew there for a day and returned home that evening. In 3 weeks, we had the answer, I have Celiac disease. Once this was known, only my father and husband made efforts to change their way of feeding me. At the family cabin, my stepfather & mother were more worried that I would ruin Thanksgiving Dinner. It wasn't until one of my cousins was diagnosed with Celiac disease. They finally looked into getting Gluten Free flour and taking measures to limit "gluten" in meals. He did nothing but ask for me to pay for my own food and wi-fi when I came to the cabin to stay after our house burned down. When he informed my mother, they proceeding to get into a physical fight and she ended up with a black eye. The is just more trauma for me. Sam had no interest in telling the truth about what he wanted. He lied to my mother that he had asked my husband if I could pay for "food" when he asked Geoffrey if I had money to pay for my wi-fi. My mother hates when he spends so much time on the computer so he lied and said I could pay for my own food. I will remind you I weighed 119lbs at this time. (At 6ft) that is a very sick looking person. Neither parent was worried about my weight, they just fought about how cheap my stepfather was. As my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2014. He had her sign over the will to a trust and added his children. He had no testimonial capacity at the time, so she signed without proper papers. Making this Trust null and void. When I gave my brother my childhood home, my mother stated I would be getting an equal part of inheritance to the house on Race. It currently worth 2.0 million $. I got nothing, and my stepfather has since disowned me b/c of my claim and he knows that my mother would never have left it uneven between my biological brother and myself. She sat me and my husband down, as we lived at the Race Street house and treated and took care of it as our own. My brother took over b/c he was going through a horrific divorce and needed a home so he could get a better custody deal with his soon to be ex-wife who was a Assist DA for Denver. She used the girls against him, and he & I were the primary caregivers. We, Judd and I spent the most time with them pre the divorce. Once Judd moved into the house, he threw all of my mother, grandmother and my family heirlooms out to the Goodwill. Nobody told my mother about this as she was going through cancer treatment and had Alzheimer's disease in her mother and her sister. My stepfather and biological brother took advantage of this matter, as I called a "family council" that my brother just never could make it to at the last moment. All of the furnishing, kitchen ware, everything was in the house my brother just moved into. He had had 2 weddings, I chose to elope b/c my stepfather ruined my brother's first wedding by talking about his relationship with my brother in front of my dad and his entire family, insulting him and having my grandfather leave the ceremony. It was a disaster. My stepfather just plays dumb and blames my father for the slight. I was the only child not to have a wedding. So, my mother and stepfather never had to pay for a thing. My mother had had an agreement with my father he'd pay for college and all medical issues with their kids, myself and Judd. So truly my mother never had to pay for anything big for me in her entire life. I am looking for anyone that has had a similar story, where they grew up in a household that had a baker that regularly milled flour and ate gluten. What happened to you? DId you suffer from different auto-immune diseases b/c of living with a baker using "gluten" Please let me know. I have been looking into legal ways to get my stepfather to give me what my mother had promised, and he erased. Thank you for listening to my story. Jane Donnelly

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.
