Its this weekend ! :0)

I thought I would check in before leaving for the weekend. Yesterday was a day from hell. I am asking you again for prayers and support for my family. What I am going to tell you is almost impossible to believe. It concerns two of my nephews. One is ninth grade, the other away at college, finishing up his senior year. Last week my brother and his wife received a call from the ninth grader's school, saying that he had suffered an "episode" and recommended taking him to the doctor. To make a long story short, he had gotten extremely stressed out at school (he is always on the honors list) and just cracked. They described it as a manic episode. He is seeing several doctors and has gotten better, went back to school yesterday. When talking to my mother yesterday morning, she said she had started receiving some very bizarre emails from our other nephew, who is away at college. She didn't want to bother my brother, because of everything they had been going through with the younger son. I asked her to forward them to me, and gosh almighty, they were more than bizarre, really out of it, almost suicidal. So I told her I was going to track down my brother and/or his wife at their work and let them know. To make a long story short, this nephew has also suffered some sort of manic breakdown - they tested him and did not find drugs or alcohol in his system and will be committing him to a mental hospital for evaluation. My brother is with him, as my sister-in-law had to stay home with the other son. I was hesitant to post this on a forum, but I believe in prayer and that it can help heal, and my poor brother and his family need it in the worst way. They are just stunned and in shock. They are the last family you would think something like this would happen to. Very stable environment, very supportive of their children. Thank you for letting me share.

Hey Judy! I noticed that too on the Wii the running in place and marching ones really get to my arse! As you get better you graduated to doing it long and longer and it's tough! It seems funny that a video game can be such a good physical workout, but it is! What I have is a Baritone Ukulele. It has 4 of the same strings of a guitar, so it sounds like a guitar, really. I'm just nuts about it. I'm taking a break now to rest my fingertips!! Atta girl, Socks!!! Like Nike says, "Just Do It"!!! It's the truth. You can't think about it at all. The only thing I allow myself to think about is how I used to feel. I feel completely like a new person. I'm amazed that it hasn't taken very long at all. I've only been doing this since the first of the year. Moni, way to go!!! Weight training is so good for you. They say it's even more important than aerobics because it boosts your metabolism. Part of what I'm doing on the Wii is Yoga, which some of it is incredibly hard!!! Here's a pic of my new baby!!!

More for my Computer than myself, but I do get the benefit. I gave the Computer a complete Spring Cleaning! Got Windows Updates. Updated and scanned all scannables. Did Scan Disk and Defrag. Downloaded and ran cCleaner. All squeaky clean. Sue
