The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

So, how the heck is it November 20th already? How did it come to be that Sean is already 17 years old? I haven't a clue.
Today was full of "stuff" like the news about Lindsey (this is "the Good").
She will now be attending elementary school in Immokalee Florida in the same building that Don and I teach in!! Yay!! No more being worried about a 10 year old getting herself to school all alone. Ppphheewww! There is a load off. Don almost died today (this is "The Bad). I was absolutely horrified when someone came into my room during instruction and whispered in my ear, "Mrs. Miller wants you to go down to the clinic. Your husband is down there. He is choking and cannot breathe." Needless to say, I bolted out of the room. He wasn't in the clinic. He was still in his room. One of his students had to yell to another teacher to "HELP!" because Mr. Neibert is choking. When I got into the room he was okay (THANK GOODNESS). Don told me he thought for sure he was a goner. He couldn't get a breath in his body because he had taken a couple of pills for his cold (which, by the way, he has had for three solid months) and his throat closed. I cannot even begin to tell you how scared I was. If I lost him, I seriously wouldn't know what to do.
Now, at 10:30, I have been going solid for sixteen hours with no break (I just got done baking three pumpkin rolls). I tired. I'm getting crabby (that, my friends, is "The Ugly"). I am going to bed.

If you had taken CPR like you were supposed to last summer, you would have had no worries about helping Don! JK. Glad everyone is okay! Hope your turkey day was filled with lots of white frosting (mmmmmmmmmm....yummy memories!). Sam
