Hello! Thank you for having me as a friend Catie :)
Compared to some far away members on tu.diabetes, you're my next door neighbour lol...some are so far away, and yet they feel like they're right here like you :) That's one of the appealing factors of tu.diabetes. I'm in Kitchener-Waterloo (2 cities joined together). I'm a wife of 33 years, mom to two grown children, a grandma to 3 lovable little boys, a teacher, and before that an illustrator and graphic designer....I speak French and English, I read, history fascinates me, I paint, sing, walk, garden, ski, ride my bike....did I mention "read"? I love having friends over, I bake/cook, am an eclectic music lover, an animal lover...the ocean...ah the ocean...it speaks to me! Oh...and I have diabetes (and a few other things).
Please tell me a bit about yourself!
Keep in touch, ok?
hugs....linda
