Youngest nephew is getting tubes in both ears. SIL freaked out, but it is a good thing. Hopefully will resolve the hearing loss (his ears haven't been clear enough to test if the loss is clog or scarring.)

Should help with ear infections, sarameg.

I had them as a kid too.

I'm pretty sure the little girl next door them, and they were a big help. Never a fun thing to hear, but he'll do great.

I had chronic ear infections and was within 2 infections of having tube put in...and then I didn't have another for 2 years. I've mostly grown out of them, but I'm really careful about keeping my ears clear when I am sick (and washing them out after swimming.)

I had a tube in my left ear when I was a kid. The main issue I had with it was having to wear an earplug when I was sitting with my left ear next to an open car window or when I went swimming.

I hope his ears clear up with the tubes, sarameg.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That kind of thing is so weird to me -- my aunt was saying that my cousin would get his tonsils out, if he got strep 7 times a year or something, but he usually gets it 6 times, so no go. That still seems like a shitload of strep infections!

Woohoo, I have a date for the FM tomorrow morning! One of the neighbors I really clicked with (honestly, I liked them all, but she's one of maybe 3 or 4 that you just get a "OK, someday I will have a really bad day and end up drunk and cryinglaughing on her shoulder" vibe from.)

I'm unreasonably pleased. I have such a crush on this place.

What's FM? And that is pleasing!

I'm on an online buying spree. So far, two pairs of boots and one cat scratcher thing.
