    Still no word on James. The pond this happened at is 1,000 acres. That is a huge area to search. Last update was about an hr ago and they've still found nothing. This is just horrible. Wish I could go be with the family but they are 5 1/2 hrs away and with my knee, I do good to drive to PT and back home. All we can do pray. Thank you all for your concern, and Tru, for your hugs. Back at ya! Sandy

    I got on the scales this morning and I LOST! Yippee, now weigh 269! That is a 8 pound loss this month, but more importantly, the scale is moving again! and downward!

    I am in a new decade! :D :D :D

    Sandy, still praying for your situation. God be with you.

    Kudos to you Purplemem. Keep up the good work. Thanks for your prayers.

    Tru, I know, I know, it is all in His hand. We're just trying to keep the faith. The more time that passes, the worse it looks, and the reality of the "probable". Thanks for your concern and prayes.

    Story is: James and 2 of his friends went duck hunting yesterday. His 2 friends were standing on the bank of the pond. James went out in the boat to retrieve the ducks. The boys saw the boat "spinning around" and James was no where to be found. He hasn't been seen since. They have been searching since yesterday afternoon. Divers have been diving. Helicopters have been searching, authorities and people are searching the woods and surrounding area, yet nothing has been found.

    My aunt said she will call me back when they get more news. Thank you for your prayers. Please continue. Thank you! Sandy
    Oh no!! I will not stop praying until he is found! Your entire family is in my prayers as well.

    Sandy - I'm keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

    Congrats to everyone who lost. Tru - you're doing great. One day at a time.

    Well, I've eaten pizza two nights in a row, stepped on the scale today and it says down.. but since it's not my official weigh in day I'm just gonna count it as the way the scale will read on Wed. :D
