HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME MA RUTH, NOT MUCH SNOW HERE IN CH

Well today is Me Ma Ruth's birthday and I am not going to tell you how old she is. We will just say she is just 59 and holding, anyway HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME MA RUTH. Well we sure didn't get much snow here in Colonial Heights yesterday but there is a pretty good chance that we may get some accumulating snow on Saturday, you should enjoy todays weather in th low 50's because it is going to turn sharply colder Saturday night into Sunday. The CH girls basketball team had a tough night last night falling to Matoaca 67-45, the Colonials fell behind early and just never seemed to be able to get into a rhythm. Speaking of cold weather in Green Bay on Sunday at kickoff the temp is suppose to be 1 degree with a wind chill below 0 and the temp is suppose to fall throughout the game. I am glad I will be sitting front of the TV watching watching this one, that is just plain to cold to do anything. We had out baseball meeting at the high school yesterday and we have more kids coming out for the team than we have had the last four years, it sounds like I might have a pretty sore arm the first week of practice.

Health and Diet Tip
Prevent yourself from overeating with these tips. Don't hesitate to ask for a doggie bag when dining out -- you'll have tomorrow's lunch already made. Offer to share an entree, appetizer or dessert. At home, serve the entrée and starch dishes in the kitchen. Put a big salad and vegetables on the table. Help yourself to seconds if you like.

Fitness Tip
Don’t get stuck in a rut. If you’ve been using barbells, try using machines or dumbbells. It’s easy to get into the habit of going through the motions of doing the same exercises over and over. Live it up! Change the angles or range of motion. But don’t get reckless and ruin your form.

The depth of life's richness
For every tragedy, there are a thousand joys. For every setback, there are countless ways to move positively forward from it.

Though the world may sometimes seem cold and dreary, there is always a bright new sunrise on the way. Though life can certainly be unfair, it is at the same time filled with an unending supply of positive possibilities.

As painful as the losses can be, love will heal to an even greater degree. In the darkest of times, hope shines more brightly than ever.

Your own existence is so thoroughly familiar to you that you rarely think anything about it. Yet it is a wondrous miracle that is utterly beyond compare.

What you have is so much more than what you can touch or see. What you have is everything that is, and all that can ever be.

You will never fully grasp the depth of life's richness. For the more of it you experience, the more of it there is.
-- Ralph Marston
