Chaplain ET commented on Natalie ._c-'s group 'Type 2'"My favorite vegetable is CORN ON THE COB! (Even though I only have 5 teeth left, I still try to manage it!) Then there's creamed corn, followed by plain corn, with butter melted on it. (Notice a trend here?) My favorite way of having a…"

Chaplain ET commented on Joyce L. Hout's group 'Deaf and Hard of Hearing'"Kiva; I was told I was made deaf in my left ear due to a case of measles that I had,early in life.

Chaplain ET commented on Brea's group 'Diabetics with Depression'"You know, considering this subject, I wish there were some sort of identifying pin, or symbol, that would identify us to others with similar problems. At least then there's be at least TWO people to support each other! The cross I wore on my…"
Chaplain ET commented on pinkyspurse's group 'For People With Multiple Conditions'"Is it US as human beings that have gotten more complicated, that we need more doctors, or is it because there is that much more information out there for doctors to know? I'm glad I was a Chaplain; there's usually only ONE book to know!…"
Chaplain ET replied to Dedene Nelson-Court's discussion 'Radical Change in Eyesight' in the group Type 2"Yup! I went through four eyeglass changes by my optometrition, until he asked me, all of a sudden, was I a dibetic? I said yes, and he literally jumped up and down, and said, "That's why!" It seems that Diabetes makes a change in your…"

GOOD MORNING ET!! Whatcha up to today?
How have you been feeling? The kids here are packing like mad. They're moving out next Saturday...and get the keys Friday. The grandkids will be with the other grandma then. Our daughter has a new shift that entails her having to work some Sundays, and Stephen (her little guy) would then be babysat here by our daughter-in-law. However next Sunday, if that's the case... Stephen will be with her ex! Next Saturday will be a madhouse here!! On this coming Wednesday (the 18th), I'm helping out at a fundraiser with the Canadian Diabetes Association. It's an amazing day outside! Wishing YOU an awesome day :)
Hugs....linda

More "stuff"!! How's the weather at your end...hot and muggy here...was going to weed after the brief shower we had here yesterday....but the air was very thick....and my back still recuperating from having washed the kitchen floor 3x over on all fours (the old fashion way) the day before when Riley (2) decided to spit out his juice all over the place. I would have been arrested for what I toyed doing to him! The room that our daughter was in before moving into her own place is now taken up as a storage room for Timothy and Steph (son and d-i-l). The storage unit they have rented is all full!!! They're moving into their own house starting the 19th of this month! The repeat empty nest syndrome lol. It sure will feel odd to have the whole house to ourselves again! Steph (d-i-l) has a bad ear/sinus infection. She went to a walk in clinic yesterday, and was put on meds, including ear drops. Early evening, her ear was bleeding, which is not uncommon with ear infection...but I nevertheless offered to take her to ER, knowing that we'd be there for at least 6 hours...no no no...she didn't want to go. Midnight, as I'm coming out of the washroom to go to bed, she and Timothy are at the kitchen table...seems that now she feels she should take me up on that earlier offer. I said to her, "you realize that we'll be there all night 'till mid morning anyway!"
She had gone to the internet, and of course got scared by the comments and suggested diagnoses of her bleeding ear! (sigh....who listens to me!!) So I said...call telehealth (a telephone access here, that helps to give you a heads up about your symptoms). They basically paraphrased my comment to her..."you have been seen, you DO have an ear infection which may bleed, you are on medication for it, you do NOT have cancer nor have you suffered trauma to the head. Call your doctor in the morning if it is still bleeding" Who listens to me!!! So this morning, she called her doctor who will see her at....3pm, and the appointment was later changed to 7pm! Guess the doc doesn't share her concern!!
So...life goes on in the Miller household! Sounds SO much like a soap that I should ask you to stay tuned tomorrow...same time same station! How's life at YOUR end??
hugs....linda

Greetings and many Blessings ET...Long past 4 days! My classroom is clean....student's hours of French are recorded...made some copies in prep for September...and designed a new game to help in French. Yesterday was the last of the 2 day First Aid course....I passed! But MOSTLY yesterday was the LAST DAY OF SCHOOL for teachers at our school!!!
I'M OFF 'TILL THE LAST WEEK OF AUGUST!!!!!
I was to meet up with other teachers yesterday at a colleague's house for a little year end celebration. Got in the car, started it, and the car said....clickclickclickclickclick! I remember we had that trouble last year....has to do with the car's AC/starter! So Len boosted the car, and all seemed fine, but I wasn't pushing it and decided to stay home instead! Right now I feel fine, but yesterday I was a little off and sugars were a tad high! Could be the heat...it was very hot today also! Slept in this morning ...'till 9!!! What bliss! Today is our youngest grandson's 2nd birthday! Tomorrow, our 33rd Anniversary....dinner out perhaps. Sunday the 1st of July, is Canada Day! Doing a picnic and whatnot...water park for the kids, followed by the usual city wide fireworks at dusk.! What about YOU?? Your 4th is coming up...any plans?
Luv....linda
