How long have you been married?

Close to 30 years to a part-time husband for 26 (he traveled three to four days a week overseas) now he is retired full time. I have twice as much husband and half as much money. B)

My hubby travels, too, but not overseas, just in a five state area. We've been married for 22 years.

Wow, how time flies. Laura, tell that handsome hubby of yours that a nice diamond studded anniversary ring would be quite appropriate, a necessity when you go to all those black tie event in the city. Gotta keep up girl! :P (You get the good stuff in the early years and as the years pass you get the weed-eaters and leaf blowers). ^_^

If the date slips by me, I hope that you have a wonderful celebration.

xxoo

Thanks, Lisa!!!

lol...the funny thing is that we have looked for a different wedding band for me. :)

However, a very nice 2007 Toyota Camry is looking to be parked in my driveway, sometime between now and mid July....so I'm going to count that as my gift ;).

THREE YEARS, NO WAY! (yelling), man I gotta get a life. :o Looking for a project, any suggestions? I am a little depressed this week. I went to Roses to get a shower curtain liner and they gave me the Senior Discount and didn't even ask my age - I don't qualify. So have fun now, it gets a little pitsy in about 30 years.

Guess this whole thread is off topic in so many ways, but fun.

Ann, hope we have cheered you up a bit. Appparently, there are screws loose in many of us and I am first to stand up. :rolleyes:

Close to 30 years

That is FANTASTIC!! I love hearing about longevity in marriages! My parents have been married . . . . forever! Dave's parents were, too. I seriously don't like the fact that I was married only 7 years then divorced. Don't get me wrong . . . being in an abusive relationship is NOT what life is about. And, all my experiences brought me to where I'm supposed to be -- with Dave. I just know that chances are, we're not going to be married 50 years. I'd be 91!! Although, that would still be TEN YEARS younger than my grandmother was!! Okay, maybe I don't feel so bad! I look forward to growing old with Dave. We will be a fun old couple.

Lisa, almost 30 years is great. Pretty cool.

A LITTLE bit goofy?????!!!!! <_<

A horse walks into a bar . . . . .

Bartender asks: "Why the long face?" :P

Just warming up. Haven't gotten to the "hind lick maneuver" stage yet.

ONE BIG MASSIVE ALTOID??????? My question would be "which party will be the recipient of such a curiously strong peppermint? Simply a question, that's all. :ph34r:

BTW: Forgot the rest of the backg-up singing:

Ba Ba Baba, Baba, Baba, Ba; Ba Ba Badag adag adag . . . Oh, forget it. I've been singing these lyrics over and over trying to get them out to write them, then I google'd it and can only get the stupid lyrics, not the backup lyrics for WAY too long. Poop. Sorry about that, for all you "GI" celiacs. You can get me back by saying, "Stagger." :lol:

OK Lisa

Now I understand what a blue moon is. Thanks for the insight! By the way I think you are all hylarious. Enjoy your mints!

Full moons always cause lunar madness and I am not joking. Ask anyone who works with emergency situations like police, nurses, doctors, fire, ems etc., they hate working a full moon. Our last full moon this month we had 5 stabbings alone just to do with my job and that was only for one night. As full moon madness is concerend it lasts for the night before and the night after also. So as the 31 is a Thursday and the blue moon once again the tail end will fall on my watch and it will be 10 times worse than any other full moon. The blue moon months are always worse than a normal full moon month.So, as the first full moon was very bad this month this next one will be just the worst.

I kid you not . . . . on full moons, when I was practicing, EVERYONE would call with some bizarre ache or pain and HAVE to be seen THAT DAY. Since I was out on my own, I needed as many visits as I could get. I would work from 7 a.m. until 11 p.m. on full moons -- and the day before, and the day after. I actually marked them on the calendar on the receptionist's desk. ICK.

Yes!!! I am MUCH better off than when I realized we had 2 full moons this month!! Reading all these great posts has mellowed my grumpiness and reassured me I am in the right forum!! I love the far out humor, and downright nuttiness ! It really makes my day. This WONDERFUL group of folks is so neat to come home to every night. And my DH of nearly 31 years has finally gotten over the nightly competition for the forum! :lol:

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      Celiac getting dentures

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
