Welcome back!

My husband has family in Arkansas.

One of his nieces,( Mary) + her child, her nephew (Joseph) + his child were all in an auto wreck.

Mary is dead. Joseph is dead. Their kids have been sent to the hospital. I have no idea what their condition is right now.

Four people whose lives have been changed forever.

UPDATE 2-17-10

The previous information needs to be updated and corrected. Four people were in the car. Mary with her son Michael, her 7 year old daughter, and her nephew Joseph. Joseph was the son of Mary’s sister Michele.

Michael and the 7 year old were bruised, but okay.

No, I am not talking about the re-vamped series ‘The Visitors’ or “V” as it is called.

I am talking about a near-by friend of my husband and I, who has a visiting friend from another part of the state. She told us about all of the snowy scenes that she saw while on the train coming down.

I am just glad that she didn’t try to travel by bus, because she might have been stranded because of road blockages. She told us that she remembered her best night cream, but forgot to put part of her nebulizer in her suitcase. Since I, myself, have sleep apnea and understand how important that breathing can be, I asked her if she will be okay while she is here. She said that she would be okay for a while, I just hope that she does not encounter any problems.

I know that I just mentioned the Olympics.

Those athletes have to be in very good condition in order to take part in their chosen competition. I bet they don’t have to look for any type of fat burner to get in shape.

Of course they do not sit on their couch and watch TV either. All of the exercise they must do is something that I cannot imagine in any way shape or form. They do have my admiration for their self control over how they use their bodies. Me, I like food a little too much. Exercise…..not able to do that.

I just hope that no more people get hurt seriously, or not seriously. I realize that each contestant is standing in for their own country, I just hope that each country appreciates what these athletes are doing. It is something that I cannot do. I do enjoy watching a lot of what is being done. I like gymnastics, iceskating, and some other things. I just wish that I could do only a little bit myself.

So in another way, I do also envy them their abilities.

have you heard? When I last checked, the USA had 1 gold medal, 2 silver medals, and 3 bronze medals.

I couldn’t believe it when that young man lost his life just practicing for that sled event. I feel sorry for his family.

I hope and pray that no more young people have serious accidents happen while this event or any other event go on. It makes me wish that I had the money to get a room at one of the Toronto hotels, so I could be there in person and watch. These athletes practice so hard, and have worked for so long that they should be cheered on by anyone who watches. It is something that anyone from any country should be able to recognize and appreciate.
