Thanks Harry! I haven't loaded any of the channels yet. I'll have to look into that this weekend.

I got back on the Fit last night and I am the hula hoop master! 5 hoops, 4 stars, no problemo! Now if I could just figure out how to land the ski jump without snowballing. Do you know? Oh, and have you done any of the runs yet? Do you put your shoes on for those? I did the short one just to check it out and that was difficult to run in bare feet.

Did you say you pitched a fit last night??? 5 hoops, 4 stars, we're in the presence of greatness I liked the hula hoop, except for those two little jerks throwing them at me (they throw short on purpose when it's my turn!).

Yes but the complication is that her friend is 11 1/2 so I have a feeling convincing her to move down is going to be a little more difficult. Just found out that they are only testing the new age groups on the west coast cruises and are asking for input so it may or may not be an issue for the Nov. cruise. So I am going to save my panic but talk to the counselors about it when we are onboard this summer.

Why save your panic till then, that's the beauty of adrenaline, your body keeps making more of it. Nothing like a good adrenaline rush!!!

Today I'm going to concentrate my panic energy into running store to store to find a WII fit. I tried the "store pick up" option but that is not an option anymore. I guess everyone is sold out so it'll be like when I got the WII in the first place and just got lucky to walk into a gamestop on a day when they got 2 in and one was left.

Last night Caitlin was running with her friends, when her feet got tangled with one of her friends feet. when they separated the friend took off running, but managed to step on Caitlin's foot. In the process one of Caitlin's toes was broken

This is the same foot as earlier this year.

The Dr taped the toe this morning and Caitlin is feeling better now.

Ouch! Hope she is doing okay. My DD somehow hurts her wrist every other month. She was casted in the winter and had to sit out swim team for six weeks and now it seems she can't help but get that same wrist twisted, fall on it during soccer or something - but it's always THAT wrist. Oy.

Ski-jump - lean forward to get your speed up to 60-ish, extend your legs at the right time, but keep the dot balanced on the grid and you should land perfectly. It sounds like you aren't extending your legs.

Running - Yes, use shoes. One of the longer runs is 10+ minutes and then there is free run (where you can actually watch regular TV at the same time) where running with no shoes has to be painful.

I know that was probably an incredibly stupid question. Thanks for the tips. I'm going to try again tonight!

We are having bad storms coming through our area. Our electricity went out at my job about 3 times-but we have back up generators in my department. There is hail 2 inches big, and funnel clouds touching down all over the place.

Hey there Treasure Seekers!!!

Hope you're all keeping WiiFit and well!!! I'm just popping by to let you know that my Double Dip trip report is up and running - including those all-important photos of the Roy O Disney suite! Clicky, clicky...

Hi Karen! Miss you!!

On my game, the two little jerks throwing them at me were my DH and DS. So I have to be nice and not call them names. And I forgot to mention, the 5 hoops, 4 stars was on the beginner game. Quit bowing down will you already! You'll hurt your knees.

You are getting what we had all last night and this morning. It was nasty, and made for a terrible nights sleep. Stay safe!!
