Don't know if you had a chance to read Doug's e-mail about the 4 selected charities that DS is donating to. None of them are mental health organizations - all physical health. How does everyone feel about this? I don't know whether to feel slighted or be understanding.

I didn't find any profound issue. It was sort of a writing contest. I also think Alzheimer's is a mental-health issue. Like many mental health problems, Alzheimer's is a brain chemistry problem affecting an huge number of people.

Well, on weekends he does make me breakfast before I leave, but other than that NOTHING!!! I'm outta here.

DarkSign,

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
