Pixie, welcome - - OMG tell us why you look THIRTY in your photo, I thought you were that age, why are your thighs so skinny????? :huh:

I am so touched by you girls wearing purple....great photos Cecile and Robbin (we get to see you!)....so sorry about this young Rachel and her family....glad her mom has found some support :(

I don't have time to write, gotta go work for that chaotic writer I work for occasionally....imagine ME, trying to put order into HER life....ha ha ha ha :lol::lol::lol: (somehow I am able to do this) -

am about to blow-dry the hair - we will see the reality of things -

Carla - you are right - she cut MORE than I wanted - I don't WANT to post a new photo now!! :angry:

the botox - the one who scares me the most is actor Ray Liotta - saw him on a talk show and he looks FREAKISH - can't really smile any more - what is up with THAT?????

You have to. Have your friend you help out take it. :) Do you have a camera phone? They're not the greatest, but that's how my avatar was taken. Morgan took it. Adam took pics of just me, but he hasn't emailed them to me yet.

Hi everyone,

Checking in from my desk at work. I'm sufficiently recovered from my surgery to go back to school (I'm a teacher and athletic director) and am now here on my day off catching up on all kinds of stuff that didn't get done while I was laying on the couch and sitting at my computer at home.

Susan - sorry your hair is too short, at least it will grow! And I'm sure short is better than green!

Hey Richard - I see you peeking in here again. We're all going to tell your wife!

Hi Liz--

Glad things are getting back to normal for you. Hope your desk isn't too full of things to take care of--I know they have a way of building up fast :)

I was just taking a head count... not quite 40 of you in here...False advertising if you ask me. <_<

Anybody own a pair of these?

No, it's because we're 40 something years old, so there are two reasons you don't fit in here!!! Now, be a good boy and go play with your Power Rangers .... it's pretty clear you don't actually work!!!! LOL

Those pantyhose are hysterical. I'm so glad no pantyhose is the syle, I hate them!

Carla, I love your avatar. Everytime I look at your husband it makes me laugh. Was he just being cheesy for the camera?

Patti - thanks. My job-share partner kept the desk organized and kept things going pretty well. But I have zillions of things to do with trying to get progress reports out and organize the upcoming basketball season.

First you want me to say something, now you want me to skidaddle...geessh.

I'm actually hard at work today, I'm catching up from 4 days of goofing off...or is it that I'm catching up on my goofing off....sometimes I can't tell the difference :huh:

Yea, he usually makes that silly face in a picture!! Of course, even though I know he does, it still always surprises me! His Sam's Club card even had that face, but it was of the more "I'm annoyed" variety, but still the big eyes. Cashiers would laugh when he'd give it to them! He made silly faces in most of the pictures taken of him as a little kid, too, so I guess you could say he's never grown up!

my own hair (to cover up

the white-morticia streaks)

The Rach I am referring to in the avatar is a beautiful young girl who passed away this weekend from cancer and her mother requested that her friends wear purple today since it was her favorite color, so we are all wearing it to celebrate her life. :)

I haven't been over to DS much, but I've seen her picture. She was very young wasn't she. I didn't realize she had passed away or was that sick. :(

Susan, do you have a web cam? Or, do you have a normal camera and a scanner? You could take a picture of yourself......Susie (my 14-year-old) does it all the time, just holds the camera out with one arm.......don't know how she manages, but takes nice pics of herself that way (you know, narcissistic teenagers :rolleyes: ).

A few years ago I had my hair cut, hated it because I thought it was way too short. Now I look at the pics from then, and think it was beautiful, and always cut it that length now! So, in reality it might be perfect, and you're not used to it. Let us be the judge!

Nope, all girl. I just grew up with 5 brothers so I don't communicate like a girl.

hey everybody....I hate my hair :angry: SO NO, no picture, not yet....will take a couple of months to grow some length - - am feeling hideous - - thought it was good yesterday, but it was just all fluffy and weird from her extremely arduous blow-dry - - might have to throw some toner on it to tone down the highlights in one area.....how taxing - - - may call this crazy girl who did it and charged me an ARM and a LEG - -

I took some photos on my camera phone - deleted all - will not post them! I don't care how mad you guys get - - - :P Ursula I don't have a scanner- - if I did, I would scan only the gorgeous photos! :P

Richard - you're SO in touch with your feminine side!! Went to the gynecologist (this should scare our one lurking male) :lol: and she is putting me on the pill, holy cow (has not been a good experience for me in the past - cried every day) and TOTALLY OFF sugar (what???? :o:o:o how will I survive?) off caffeine, onto B6 supplements.....testing thyroid, hormones, other stuff. we'll see what happens....thinks I am NOT in MENopause or peri-MENopause in any way - - that was good news.......I am just tired of being SO tired and so.....blah....I miss my fun and extremely goofy self.....

Donna - OMG I had a chocolate Bumble Bar today...quite good but I think I like the original flavor better...have all the ingredients now and am going to try and make my own... :D

see you guys - - Cecile - it's our big night again, rolls around once a week - that's right, Gray's Anatomy - -

Hi Jestgar and Alicia! welcome....

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
