This is where we were last night, it made the local news. We saw Van Halen. It was LOUD. Van Halen's son Wolfgang (with Valerie Bertinelli) is now a guitarist in the band. David Lee Roth is back.

K started taking synthroid (low dose .025mg) today for his hypothyroidism (under-active thyroid which can slow your metabolism). The doctor feels he should take it until he's about 18 yrs old, ie, through puberty to be on the safe side, although his condition is mild. It seems that it's quite a common condition. So he is to watch for symptoms such as sleeplessness, headaches, heart racing...which would mean the medication needs adjustment.
I went to the Markham Country Decorating Show today, (the first day of wearing winter coats, actually). I bought some nice banana walnut bread, little assorted Mennonite cookies, and some bead scarves for gifts. They are made of several rows of long colourful strings of tiny beads (imported from India the guy said), that you can wear like scarves around your neck for a decorative effect, or even as a waist belt accessory. I also got one for L just in case. Something different.
M and I met with L's guidance teacher this morning, a lovely person. L's been doing some good career counselling work with her, you really can never start that stuff too early.
