    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    Yes, going to friends' houses AND being around my family. Most of my family (and my hubby's) are horrible eaters with a lot of weight/health issues. We already avoid most processed and refined stuff, but it's difficult at family gatherings because that's what a lot of people make to eat...

    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    Birdbrain, I've tried a lot of things concerning diet, but I've never actually tried going gluten free. I know there's lots of info on here about it, so I'll check into it. I'm hoping it's not too difficult! FarmerDenise, you are right about his tics increasing with stress. I definately can...

    Wannabefree...guess what I got in the mail today!?!?!?!?

    I think what helped me quit the most was the fact that my husband was the cigarette nazi. :gig He stayed on me like white on rice, making sure I wasn't sneaking any. I was annoyed with him at the time, but now I thank him. :)

    Freezing onions

    Yes! I buy bags of onions because they're cheaper that way, but we'd never go through them all before they got sprouty or moldy, so I mince and freeze. Hubby likes the taste of onions, but not the crunchy texture. So, freezing them makes 'em a little more mushy and he doesn't notice as much...

    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    lorihadams, I know what you mean about reading with your son and moving. My little guy will jiggle the whole time, and of course he will make his sounds because of his tics. But, he wanted me to read JRR Tolkein's The Hobbit to him, and I was pleased to find that even though he is always...

    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    Thanks ChaneyLakeGirl, it is nice to hear from other people who have had similar problems. It's so frustrating! Especially since he isn't this way at home. Don't get me wrong, we have had our moments! But at home he is always busy. We're cooking something, taking care of the chickens...

    Question about different type of reusable cat litter
