Sillies I have a favor to ask and since this is the Silly Thread I guess I am allowed....

I listen to this awesome radio station out of Rochester NY which we found while on our Honeymoon...I stream it over the net at work but it is an actual FM station. My favorite DJ is in a popularity contest with other DJ's in the Rochester area for the next few weeks. He won last week's round and today started a new round. Could you all throw some votes his way for me? It won't let you vote on the same computer more than once a Day. Anyway he has been on the radio for 15-20 years and up there he is very well respected.

The website is called RochesterInsider. You would click on the Radio March Madness link and then hit the vote here button. It will show you 4 match-ups. He is on the bottom of the first column. His name is The Mayor Pete Kennedy and he is matched up against a girl. He is currently losing.

Thanks Everyone!

Ps---- He is a cutie in my eyes too!

if anyone is offended by this I will delete my post too....

They told her she needs to bleach her entire house top to bottom. She is going to try to grab a 2nd opinion now so hopefully she gets somewhere. They always say a mothers instinct and she says she herself feels like something else

is going on

:huh: Bleach???......yeah , the fumes will be really good for a little baby...NOT :angry:

IMO a good doc always listens if Mum thinks there is something wrong

Had a great time--my dad was truly surprised. He is a very quiet gentleman, and true to form, after we all yelled "Surprise" upon his arrival--he calmly turned to me and said--"everyone's here." :rolleyes::lol:

Twas a bit dicey the first hour or so of the drive up--felt some creeping panic but was able to breathe out of it eventually. Amanda--I did look for you--we probably just missed each other. I'm so sorry about poor little Landon.

It was so nice to see everyone--can't remember the last time I laughed so much! When we got into town, we drove by the church we were married in--it was 33 years to the day and almost (by the time we got there) to the hour! Pretty cool....it looked exactly the same :)

33 years Patti???...........NAH - you don't look old enough in your new av (positively GLAM!!)

Glad you had a good time - (and your Dad :) )

EMILY - :lol: Also glad YOUR Mum had a good birthday and loved her bib (how could she not?? :lol: )

Oh heeeellllp me!!!.........what have I done???? :unsure: ..........I seemed to have pulled a muscle in my neck/shoulder.

Watching me 'try' to turn my head is no end of amusement - dunno if I over done it with the 2 gym classes OR it's from crashing out on the couch !!!! :lol:

Where's Jess?? - I neeeed the number of her masseuse :o

Your becoming an exercise fiend :lol:

Bleach entire HOUSE????!!!!!!!!!

That's an alleged solution to a temp of 103?????

Patti!! Great av!!! (You look not a day over 38 you spring chicken you!!) <bawk!>

And a smile :) at the great time you had.

Seeing the church of nuptiality sounds really nice. :)

Amanda, I tried to vote but it doesn't seem to work for me.

Update

What is wrong with the world?

Indeed.....bleach.....no possible ear infection......

Come on. :angry:

I'm back!!!!!

Had a great time--my dad was truly surprised. He is a very quiet gentleman, and true to form, after we all yelled "Surprise" upon his arrival--he calmly turned to me and said--"everyone's here." :rolleyes::lol:

What a GREAT pic, Patti! You look terrific, as does your dad.

Didn't get a shot of me with Mom.....so much going on, I just didn't ever get my hands on the camera.

Sillies I have a favor to ask and since this is the Silly Thread I guess I am allowed....

Done. I'm voting for him on looks alone..... :rolleyes:

33 years Patti???...........NAH - you don't look old enough in your new av (positively GLAM!!)

Totally in agreement. You look young, girl!

Oh heeeellllp me!!!.........what have I done???? :unsure: ..........I seemed to have pulled a muscle in my neck/shoulder.

Heat for ten minutes, then ice for ten minutes...do it for an hour if you can, then take a break and do another hour, say, before you go to bed.

Em puts the Fun in Functional, bib-wise. :)

Ah! Phunny you should choose this word, Ptaum....said bib was anything but functional. :lol: So hilarious....I ended up using thinned acrylic paints, as it was too big an area to be using very expensive fabric paints. Well, the terry of the bib just kept sucking it in, so I was plying the paint on with reckless abandon, as I wanted it to be quite vivid. Well, it is vivid....but I probably used three entire cans of paint. It is rather....stiff. More amusing, it weighs probably fifteen pounds, so my mom put it on and just about collapsed on the couch. :lol: So, she will be wearing it when she is eating while reclining, and there won't be that huge drag on her neck. :lol:

It would probably work well as a dental bib, worn to keep radiation from leaking through to one's body during Xrays. I would bet it's bullet-proof.

Perhaps a whole new market.......

Can Do.

Jen (Landen's mom) has applied for a nursing position in my office which will be better for her. My office is very understanding on families and sick time. It would be better for her right now.

The Sillie votes have put him over the edge--with us behind him, he can't lose :P

This is SO funny....I can just see your poor little mom trying to stand in her bib and saying "yes dear, I love it, really :unsure: ", all the while trying not to topple backward :o

Sounds like a very good idea for her.

Ha! Actually, it went something like this (I'm paraphrasing): Mom snaps the bib around her neck, tries to stand without pitching forward, and shouts, "Un-f*cking-believable!! My neck's gonna snap!" :lol:

She did, however, love the picture itself, and will take it downstairs to their dining room and put it on when she's about to sit down. :rolleyes:

Patti, I bet you look remarkably like your dad...I can see a resemblance in your two faraway picture faces, so it must be very evident in real life!

The poor little thing. Such a shame he had to suffer so long with it :(

Hopefully the meds kick in quickly and he's better soon.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was...

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body. See my blog. Click on my name to go to my page...

      Thank you for sharing all of this, Knitty Kitty! I did just want someone to share some commonality with. I did not know This one Deficiency was a thing and that it's common for Celiac Disease.

      Outgrow celiac?

      I think your initial idea, eat gluten and be tested, was excellent. Now you have fear of that testing, but isn’t there also a fear each time you eat gluten that you’re injuring your body? Possibly affecting future fertility, bone health and more? Wouldn’t it be better to know for sure one way or the other? If you test negative, then you celebrate and g...

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      I think your initial idea, eat gluten and be tested, was excellent. Now you have fear of that testing, but isn’t there also a fear each time you eat gluten that you’re injuring your body? Possibly affecting future fertility, bone health and more? Wouldn’t it be better to know for sure one way or the other? If you test negative, then you celebrate and get tested occasionally to make sure the tests don’t turn positive again. If you test positive, of course the recommendation from me and others is to stop gluten entirely.  But if you’re unable to convince yourself to do that, could a positive test at least convince you to minimize your gluten consumption?  Immune reactions are generally what is called dose response, the bigger the dose, the bigger the response (in this case, damage to your intestines and body). So while I am NOT saying you should eat any gluten with a positive test, the less the better.
