Diabetic Clinic


Sunlight on Leaves


Wow, it was such a busy TV night last night.  We had the federal elections, where we got a new Prime Minister with a majority government.  Then there was the Toronto Blue Jay baseball game (they won) and we were also watching The Voice.  Usually I don't even watch TV as I am mostly on my computer.

Husband M is scheduled to attend a diabetic clinic this evening. A couple of sessions were set up by his doctor. It is a 3 hour meeting and he received detailed instructions on what to bring to the 3 hour meeting. He has been doing a good job managing his sugar and pricking his finger every morning. So he has to bring his health card, a notebook, a sweater as it can get cold in the meeting room. He was advised to have his dinner prior to attending and to bring a snack. He has to bring his machine and test strips. They even gave him instructions on the location and where to park. It sounds very organized. I know all this because I picked up the message on the answering machine the other day. They even advised him to arrive 15 minutes early. M should benefit from this education.

Apple harvest time

I was debating whether this was a crabapple tree then realized it must be an apple tree, as crabapples are much smaller, silly me. They are starting to fall off a neighbourhood tree, harvest time is from August to November from what I can google.


Daughter L convinced me to start watching 'The Voice' auditions, which has been airing on TV the past 2 nights. It has been very entertaining. It is going to be hard to find a winner with all the talent I have been hearing. I don't watch a lot of TV beyond news, FoodTV and HGTV. Although I am going to try to remember to watch the Amazing Race Canada finale tonight. The show has been renewed for a 4th season. It is fantastic actually.

I am also looking into quinoa recipes, it is a wonder grain, low on the glycemic index and happens to be a complete protein as well.
