Vincent, I LOVE curly hair! That's the only good thing my husband gave the kids, their curls :blink: . Only one daughter (go figure, the one who is just like him) has my straight hair. My son has longish, curly hair and looks so nice! I agree with Carla, why don't you have it like Timothy (except for the gorgeous red colour, of course ;) )?

His is MUCH curly then mine.... I am considering a royal purple streak though, jsut for fun :)

Broncobucs is going to be here for a wedding and that is why we are meeting for lunch. I finally get to meet his girlfriend.

Vincent, I don't remember my haircut in 7th grade, but I do remember the haircut in the 6th. I was complaining that I needed a haircut and my brother who was 6 years older then me, said he would cut it. He sure did. I went to school with a DA and that afternoon a notice came from the principal that said, if anyone came to school with another one, they would be suspended. I wore mine proudly for awhile, as I was usually not a rebel, but wanted everyone's approval.

Whats a DA?

Anyone watching Grey's? I LOVE THIS SHOW! Speaking of good hair....why do they all have great hair even in the hospital?!

I love Meredith's big scene at the end when she tells them what is on her mind....and then takes the ice cream.

Mmmm....McDreamy, McSteamy, and Ice Cream-y. Mmmmm good combo. Yummy.

(rachel, happy to have you over here. I invited myself as well. Since we are not forty ish, we became "ish"s. I'm in my 20s so I'm an ish ish)

I'm so jealous of all you people who get to watcy Grey's. So not fair. I actually read the writer's blog thought so I know whats going on. How sad is that? :ph34r::lol:

CarlaB Enthusiast

Laura, I just watched it, too. Loved it!

Since 40 is the new 30, or is it 50 is the new 30, which makes 40 the new 20, you're just a baby!!! :lol: But it's good to have you here!!

Homemade ice cream ... good thing Rachel wasn't there! :lol:

I just made another batch of my 'ice cream' --- not ice cream at all, but its my only version of a cold/sweet treat. Will be ready by the morning. Yay!

Patti, my next avatar (which we be in like five months when I get things unpacked!) will be of one of my cats, Sully---the one that looks very similar to yours. Usually when I post I have either Toby or Sully, or both!) in/on my lap/arm... so sweet.

Now, onto ER....i love Thursday nights!

You'll have to let me know your "ice cream" recipe! We have just about the same exact intolerances, so I'm curious :D

I look forward to seeing your kitties--mine is laying on the floor next to me right now. :)

Ursula, your son looks like you! They are a nice looking couple :)

A "DA" is a hairstyle from the 50's.

I love animal pictures and people pictures!

Very nice picture of you son and daughter in law Ursula.

oh my god - - oh my god - - JUST CLOSED EYES when seeing a Gray's Anatomy post - skipped through it - - Remember dear ones on the east coast - we are on west coast time - - it's not on yet - - oh dear just please try and remember not to post any gray's stuff until - 1:00 a.m. your time!! :lol::o:huh:

now must stay off the board until my show is over......

edit: am eating the BEST bread - Whole Paycheck Sandwich bread - sooo good and I"m pleased, since I splurged (like, 7-something a loaf, for pete's sake) FYI - -

you know, back when I was eating gluten, and life was NORMAL, I ate the gnarliest of whole wheats....who knew I"d be eating white sandwich bread :(

Now, onto ER....i love Thursday nights!

oh my gosh....I have been watching ER for as long as it's been on, which I think is one-fourth of my life!! holy cow....it's really good this season, too..... :) Yes, Thurs nights are my TV night.....also The Office - excellent goofiness :lol:

I want to play too! (Even though I'm only half way to 40ish) :ph34r:

I wish I could ask for hair advice, I hate mine, sooo sick of it! But I have no way to upload pictures from my camera to my computer and don't have any recent ones :(

I'm not really feeling the whole Gray's Anatomy thing. My sister's obsessed, but I guess I just don't get it :unsure:

Yes, join us, young one....the thread is misleading, anyone can play :)

Okay, go rent season one, Gray's anatomy - - when I was really sick, before dx and laying on the couch, I watched the first five episodes and was totally hooked. now I am deeply in love with McDreamy and he has replaced my 15-year Matthew McConnaughey obsession.....

Thanks, I figured it's be ok :lol:

As far as Gray's Anatomy goes, I don't actually know much about the show. Sometimes when my sister watches it I'll half-way pay attention. She's told me it's like House (which I love but can never watch, I'm always gone on tuesday nights :angry:) except a bit more like a soap. Other then that, I'm clueless

DingoGirl Enthusiast
I watched Gray's.... but couldn't concentrate because I was worried about Robbin... good gaawwwdd girl what the heck did you eat to make you puke?

what are you talking about?? did I miss that, on the Gray's Anatomy page? did she vomit? :blink:

Guest Robbin

:blink::angry: OMGAWWWDDD!!! Do you have to tell EVERYTHING YOU KNOW GIRLFRIEND???!! Yes, I puked, yes, I am freaking feeling like dog doo, and yes, the john is my friend tonight. Ok, now the world knows--I ate some PORK tenderloin like a fool. I make foods that picky child will eat and had to try it. Yes, I deserve my punishment because I knew what might happen. I was gonna make chicken soup with matzo balls that fiddle faddle posted, but no, dh and ds voted tenderloin. GEEEESHHH!!!

Quick on-topic-question-- Is it ok for a forty-something woman to oooogle a 30-something man if said man is a perfect stranger working on a construction site in public baring oh so nice abs and perfect tan? Just wondering in case that might ever happen.......

Yeah, that is weird, matzo soup or pork, now that I noticed that. Geesh, I am weird, huh?

I don't see a problem with that :lol:

I like to oogle 30-somethings too :D

Guest Robbin
:lol::lol::lol: I forgot to say that "said construction worker" could have long, long blond hair and gorgeous arms too, does that make a difference? This is hypothetical of course.......

just saw this rap commercial on TV, about Pepto Bismol - - "upset stomach.....blah blah blah.....diarrhea!"

with people dancing adn rapping....

[in a Beavis voice] heh heh....they said....diarrhea!!

:lol::lol::lol: I forgot to say that "said construction worker" could have long, long blond hair and gorgeous arms too, does that make a difference? This is hypothetical of course.......

OOGLE AND GOOGLE! :D

Guest Robbin

:blink::blink: Oh, no, no not Fabio, more like rock star-maybe kinda Jon Bon Jovi--ish. Not that I look too close of course while going out of my way to the grocery store every day -sometimes twice- er, I mean if I would do that....

Omg, that commercial... too crazy, cracked me up the first time I saw it.

So, when did this Fabio phobia start, girlfriend??

btw, girls, I saw in the grocery line the headlines on the mags---JOHNNY DEPP TIED THE KNOT!!! Why was this not on CNN????

DingoGirl Enthusiast

JON BON JOVI????? oh Lordy yes, go for it and oogle for me too.....I am deeply in love with JBJ also....forgot about him (not in love with his music, though, just him)...

Fabio Phobia....happened the first time I saw him, I think, but esp. when that poor goose (was it one of ours, from OMG??) hit him in the nose on the rollercoaster....

AndreaB Contributor

This square peg always enjoy reading everyone's posts......just don't have much to contribute. :(

Andrea, Andrea, don't you know? You are a round peg, WE ARE THE WEIRD SQUARE ONES!!! You are normal, and we love you for your sanity, lol.

Now, omg, Fabio got hit in the nose with a goose on a rollercoaster???? Is this the start of a joke?? What is the punchline, lol. :lol: ??

Edit: Good night girls, gotta literally goooo. See ya tomorrow.

      Yes, some people with Celiac do react to quinoa.  I know i do.  Apparently, two different "breeds" of quinoa can stimulate the immune system. Read here... Variable activation of immune response by quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) prolamins in celiac disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22760575/#:~:text=Cultivars Ayacuchana and Pasankalla stimulated,for patients with celiac disease. And some of us react to corn (maize) as well. Maize prolamins could induce a gluten-like cellular immune response in some celiac disease patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24152750/   P.S. @Brook G have you thought about getting a genetic test done for known Celiac genes?

      People who are Celiac don't have a gluten response to Quinoa, but some people who are gluten intolerant do.  I react to quinoa just like I do to gluten.  Freddies/Kroger came out with their own gluten-free Bread and I didn't think to read the ingredients.  I couldn't figure out where I would have gotten gluten in my diet until I read the ingredients in their bread... QUINOA

      Thanks for the additional information. I was thinking of asking you if your daughter was taking methylated vitamins since she has the MTHFR gene but you beat me to it. To answer the question you posed in your original post, as I explained, celiac disease does not damage the colon but the lining of the small bowel. If the damage is pronounced enough and the doc doing it is experienced, yes, the damage done to the lining of the small bowel can be spotted with the naked eye.

      I could not locate the correct Gary Brecka video where he explains the methylation process and specifically states things about how people with the MTRR homozygous gene mutation are known to suffer from heartburn due to a weakened valve/sphincter where the esophagus and the stomach connect.  My brother had the youtube video sent to him from 10x health which is probably why I cannot locate it.     I will have read up on mast cell activation.  I do not know anything about it.  Tums is my preferred gerd treatment.  I always figured a little extra calcium could not hurt me.

      Trents: Due to a genetic mutation, my daughter has inherited from both parents she cannot process the Folic Acid provided in the fortified American grains.   An MD told her to avoid eating fortified grains.   My daughter makes the assumption that unless she makes the food item, that the baker used a fortified grain so she has been limiting her gluten intake since 2020.   Her Psychiatrist was who tested her for MTHFR gene issue because she suffers from depression and severe anxiety. The Psychatrist also instructed my daughter to supplement with a methylated version of folate once she knew my daughter was homozygous, because the methylated version bypasses the mutated gene step so her body can absorb it.  Low folate absorption impacts serotonin and dopamine production.  My husband and I also both have two other homozygous gene mutations that interfere with vitamin absorption: MTRR and VDR taq.  The first interferes with B-12 absorption which requires us to take a methylated B-12 vitamin and the second with Vitamin D absorption so we have to take higher doses to stay within normal levels.   My brother, who has the exact same gene mutations, went through 10x health genetic testing for vitamin supplements (paid by his employer) and received a huge report saying the same things about which types of supplements had to be taken.  Gary Brecka does videos on how these gene mutations impact the vitamin absorption pathways.       If my brother had not gotten his testing through work, he would never would have started his supplement journey.  His testing is what triggered my getting functional health testing that tested similar biomarkers to his.  Again the celiac testing was an add-on test that I did off the cuff.
