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.

Ithink thats the problem - teens are sooo self involved that its hard for them to see beyond what affects their own selves.
It is soo sadening that it seems to be on the increase both in amount and intensity these days - or is it just that we loose touch and forgett how truamatic it was when we were young?
I am sorry to hear of your cousin, it sounds like you are still grieving for her - i hope you find peace and light.
Cyber-bullying is prevalent. Mobile phones too !
