I better add a little bit about myself (PROCRASTINATION at it's finest didn't I mention that I don't really like data-entry?)

I am 46y/old living in N. Florida. Our house is made up of me, DH, DS, DD & her BF and our 3 (indoor) cats.

My whole life I've been 'peculiar'. Just couldn't seem to "get" social things. Found out in 2008 why: I have Aspergers Syndrome (or at least I do until May 1st of this year when POOF it'll be gone because of the eggheads in the American Psychiatric Association have re-written the DSM. DSM-V is being released on May 1 & at that time I will magically be changed to an Autistic Adult)

I will continue to call myself an "Aspie" even after 5/1 though...because I'm stubborn (& intelligant enough to realize that although Aspergers was in the Autistic spectrum before-it was not so closely associated with it as it will be after 5/1; but in any case-I have CLASSIC symptoms of a middle-aged woman dx with it)

My DS also has the Celiac Disease (and what a pain in the @$$ it is!) we both found out last fall. So, we cannot eat: wheat, rye or barley....do you know that some COLESLAW has wheat? And MANY hair dyes! Found that one out in hindsight--last summer when I had my hair colored at the Salon I had a GINORMOUS reaction to the dye [never had b4] so I decided to stop coloring [have been doing it since my early 20's anyway] come to find out that MANY beauty products use the gluten from wheat as a thickener. So, I'm REALLY "in style" with a 'reverse-ombre' hair color
My alarm just went off for my 2hr pp breakfast check...so I'll go do that & then hit my data-entry (did I mention that I ***hate*** data entry?)
