We are having a potluck lunch today at work, I made my famous chicken scampi . . .

Famous?!! :o sounds yummy ;)

Well, she and Landen were the only ones out of 15 that showed up.

Bah!!!! People!!! How depressing for her & how terribly impolite of the other 14. :angry:

Aaargh Julie! :(

Gotta run for now, I'm taking the Pod Brats who stole my good children to the library. Later!

:lol: :lol:

If you've got enough rope to make harnesses you could hook them all up to the car and have them pull it to the library.

Hehe LibraryQuest!! What's the url so we can keep up on checkpoint arrivals?

Whilst shouting ''Mush'' at the little blighters!!

That's some crack-me-up Brit-speak

The U.S. broadcast of Wimbledon has a Brit co-host who said whinging this morning!!

'Twere Darren Cahill, btw, whoever that is. :P

Amanda's packing/worrying & Patti's spreading the word & Carla should be gathering tarps :lol:

Wimbledon! Yes, there's a Canuck (what is his name?...great-looking...aquiline jaw, long, flowing, dark hair, body of Adonis) who's taken the court by storm...huge upset when he beat the 7th seed, an Argentinian....

Amazing. I am suddenly heavily interested in Wimbledon, like never before..... .. . . <_<

Ahh yes, the canuck w/ the eastern european name knockin' out Nalbandian(sp?).

Djokovic, aussie open winner, losing was another surprise. And I could barely believe Ana Ivanovic was almost bounced. She's #1, since Henin bowed out, which still seems like such a shame.

Yes! I love watching Henin play....like a young Navratilova. :)

In fact, I'll sit and watch almost any womens' tennis....just seems more exciting... ..longer rallies, more....passionate, perhaps?

Must get that Canuck Adonis Man's name.......Grrrrrrrrrrrr.......yes, Eastern European sound.......

I know what you mean. Lyme did a number on my hair. Much of it fell out and what was left broke. When I began treatment, it started growing back, so it's taken this long to replace all of it. I have about two inches of bad hair left, but it's not worth getting cut off right now as it's not that bad anymore. It's thickened up to where it used to be. Thankfully it was thick to begin with .....

The hair I lost 3 years ago when I was so ill never came back, but I'm not going to stress over it....just try and make the most of what I got left :lol:

Hehe LibraryQuest!! What's the url so we can keep up on checkpoint arrivals?

:D:D Ah--memories of last winter......

Patti, I want to see a PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!

On the way..... B)

Uh Em....if you see that woman, it might not be a good idea to start talking about stuff like boobs, ho-tubs or whinging--she will most likely look at you like this: :mellow:

Whilst I will be a few feet away with me mousy brown mop top and way too much face :lol:

I'm thinking even moreso when one is half in the bag :P

Does that mean drunk? :lol: I didn't know that! A fun new saying!!!

With all of talk of double D's and such -- has anyone ever had a professional bra fitting? My bra never feels comfortable and I'm not really sure what size I am. I lost quite a bit of weight when I was sick so things kind of um . . . deflated :ph34r: but now that I'm at a healthier weight things are a little more ample. The thought of a stranger looking and measuring seems torturously awkward but maybe it's worth it for a more comfortable fit. For those who have done this, is it as bad as it seems? Perhaps I will have to be half in the bag before heading to the store for a bra fitting to deal with the discomfort of the situation.

I've done the bra fitting. It's a little weird, but worth it to finally have good fitting bras.

Had one done a few years ago at Sears, after all the pregnancy weight was gone and I was left with my new, smaller, disappointing boobs. A huge, matronly black woman measured me everywhere, pushed my boobs around, hummed and hawed......

It wasn't bad. And I discovered my new size. :rolleyes:

:D Alex....yep, half in the bag means tipsy.

A bra fitting isn't bad--you are wearing your bra during it and a woman takes a couple measurements with a tape measure in a fitting room. I read somewhere recently that 80% of women wear the wrong size bra! :o Kinda unbelieveable.....

Thanks, good to know! I'm going to the mall with Ryan's sister next week so hopefully I can get it done then. It definitely can't be more invasive than the endoscopy and colonoscopy! Although at least I was sedated for that! :P I shouldn't have to make an appointment, should I?

Hmm, I think I should do a bra fitting, too. At least, I need some new bras...

Lucas can't sleep. He's in his room reading, right now. A few minutes ago, I told him to turn the light out and try to go to sleep, and he was like, "Ok, just one more chapter!" He's seven. A chip off the ole block, I say. ^_^

Ok sillies - discovered this in my paper today.....

The English Project is looking for examples of 'Kitchen table lingo' ......(words you make up and use frequently)

Some examples:

Clackers - testicles

Bobbicles - breasts

Cauliflower heads - elderly ladies

Having a McS*** - entering a fast food restaurant with no intention of buying food - just using the loo

McS*** with lies - telling staff you'll buy food afterwards

...and finally

Testiculating - waving your arms around and talking b@#$%$#% :lol:

What words could we submit?? :lol:

Nikki!!!!!! Having a McSh!t!!! I love it! I do this frequently.

I have to agree with JNBunnie and Alez, btw. Having a camera up the butt has to be way worse than a bra fitting. (Never was subjected to a colonoscopy, myself.) Plus, after the bra fitting, you get to SHOP. :lol: That makes it totally worthwhile. I'm a big believer in retail therapy. :rolleyes:

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone...

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By catnapt · Posted

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten  and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone and/or the renal calcium leak.    I have spent the past 15 years working hard to improve my health. I lost 50lbs, got off handfuls of medications, lowered my cholesterol to enviable levels, and in spite of having end stage osteoarthritis in both knees, with a good diet and keeping active I have NO pain in those joints- til now.  Almost all of my joints hurt now I feel like someone has repeatedly punched me all over my torso- even my ribs hurt- I have nausea, gas, bloating, headache, mood swings, irritability, horrid flatulence (afraid to leave the house or be in any enclosed spaces with other people- the smell would knock them off their feet) I was so sure that I wanted a firm diagnosis but now- I'm asking myself is THIS worth it? esp over the past 2 yrs I have been feeling better and better the more I adjusted my diet to exclude highly refined grains and processed foods. I didn't purposely avoid gluten, but it just happened that not eating gluten has made me feel better.   I don't know what I would have to gain by getting a definitive diagnosis. I think possibly the only advantage to a DX would be that I could insist on gluten-free foods in settings where I am unable to have access to foods of my choice (hospital, rehab, nursing home)  and maybe having a medical reason to see a dietician?   please let me know if it's reasonable to just go back to the way I was eating.  Actually I do plan to buy certified gluten-free oats as that is the only grain I consume (and really like) so there will be some minor tweaks I hope and pray that I heal quickly from any possible damage that may have been done from 13 days of eating gluten.

Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      Alarming

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
