I am a fan of oatmeal and that is my diner sometimes.It is easy to cook and we can save hehehehe,plus very nutritious. But my sister does not eat oatmeal because according to her doctor, that is bad for those having arthritis.It also contains much carbo, so I just take 6 tablespoons during dinner.

My husband believes in the whole “oatmeal reduces cholesterol” thing. He eats more oatmeal than I do. I’m sort of a grits and butter lady. 🙂

I don’t like oatmeal I find it tasting funny or flat if I may so meaning it has no taste, but I guess it’s different with different people. I would rather have porridge if I really needed to have oats. I agree with you that breakfast is th3 most important meal of the day.and I like the way you have put it that we fast everyday never thought about it that way. Break fast very interesting indeed.

I was advised to take oats which I was told will help reduce my ldl level of cholesterol. I did take it for several months. I got fed up and gave up. Now there is a masala oats by Quaker which I have just started taking. I hope I will not get fed up with this as well.
I know what you mean by fasting for many hours. In my case it is more as I do not eat dinner but have an early snack. I go to bed after I have had hot milk with honey.

For me, oatmeal really works and has lots of benefits to the body. My father is diabetic before he used to eat rice but i notice some alarming changes in his body like swollen feet which is early symptoms of diabetes due to high level of body sugar and cholesterol and possibly deterioration of the nervous system. What i do is i feed him with oatmeal through out the day to eat coupled of some fresh milk and banana together with his medicine supplement everyday. His swollen feet are now back to normal.

We are not really into oats for our breakfast because we are still stuck to the traditional rice (any kind of cooked rice) for the morning, but I think its time for us also to realize the importance of oats of in the table especially in the morning.

The combination of Banana, milk and oats is a better combination when it comes to breakfast. It must improve one’s health in a short time span. What about adding a a little amount of honey to this combination? I would like to add the use of honey instead of sugar. Do you add sugar to milk?

I must say I have never that expression or activity such as a Math Trail. It does make sense though as a child learns while growing up whether he is at home or school. That math is never quite forgotten as it is used every day of every person’s life. It is an interesting concept though.

Very informative blog. Math Trail is something I have never heard of. You are right. In every walk of life there is Math. We are always adding, subtracting, multiplying, counting… That is life.

Yes, the thing you discuss here a few people know about it well and other just have heard it or not but is is very difficult for common men.
Bu I think that math trail is that as I have understood, A math trail is a walk with various stops where you look at math in the world around you, and ask questions about it.

Math trails are a great way to stimulate interest in math—especially among students in middle school or high school, when classroom math often becomes more abstract.

A math trail, whether presented in pictures or in person, should tell a story of the area. It should include background, history and of course mathematics. When presenting a virtual math trail to the class, it is best to tell the story behind the pictures and then discuss the math within the picture.

Having the students create their own math problems during the math trail discussion enhances the activity. As students share thoughts and verbally express ideas, they will be able to communicate mathematically.

I think you’ll be looking forward to a vry nice retirement. Adventures await!

You have time to do some thinking on how you would want to spend your retirement. I wrote a poem for my husband when he was about to retire.

Well one thing you can do is write and write. Your English is excellent so you can use it well on any writing site. You could maybe start writing for an academic writing site such as Uvocorp or EssayShark though you, as a former teacher, might be repelled by this idea.. But it is a suggestion that I do not make likely. These type of sites have given me some liberty to refine my writing skills, research subjects and write essays for students. I thoroughly enjoy writing for these types of assignments. Of course you might always look and write on more SEO type of sites such as Hire Writers, Zerys or Zemandi. Anyway good luck and enjoy your well deserved retirement.

You’ve done your part in the development of the country. I exalt you. I hope you get a good retirement. Please, try to enjoy your life a little bit. You’ve earned it.

It has never been easy for someone to finally say goodbye to a job that they have loved and have been committed to for so long. But as you say what goes up must come down that’s the hard truth. Now I know you ask emotional right now not knowing what is going to happen once you leave but God knows what your about to go throuh and he knows what will happen at that particular time. So just relax and embrace the idea am sure there is something ahead that will suit you just fine. So don’t be afraid of facing what is not known. It shall be well there are people who have retired in life and have not made it through the first year of retirement because they have retired with the thought in their mind that they will not be well.so take heart and move forward.
