ywiw, Wiis can be fantastic for developing hand eye coordination. We use them with a lot of kids on the autism spectrum!

I am SO going home tomorrow! YAY!

Have fun, JG2!

I'm back from the fun in CT. Home is good.

Safe travels JG2

And, the benefits for the oldest is one of the main reasons I got it for the family. My cousin has done wonders with him since she got custody (and now legally adopted him). We thought he was mentally retarded or possibly autistic when he first came into our lives, because there was very little personal interaction - ends up, it was just that he was in a horrible, abusive situation, and now it is clear that he has at least normal intelligence. He just needs a little help making up for lost time. His younger brother was also a meth baby, but luckily, my cousin got custody of him right after he was born, before his "mother" could do any further damage to him.

Off to bed for me - many meetings tomorrow.

You're awesome, YWIW. Just so it can be said :) Sleep well.

Just saying 'hi' to all. Still in Michigan, still cold, but very relaxed and happy.

But we'll be ready to get back to the sun and warmth!

Y, Wii really is such a step above previous video game platforms. It is used as therapy in some situations and also to help seniors with dexterity, etc.

Back to work today! Arghhhhh. I drove to work to take advantage of the complete lack of traffic.

Can that be used as a visual metaphor for Shira at a shoe sale?

[shira467]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 10:36am

I was going for "aww, cute kitty", but ya know, your interpretation works as well, Deet.

But you cheated, Shira. You changed the original image, which was far more (hilariously) apropos.

[shira467]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 10:43am

It wasn't showing up for me, that's why I changed it.

Here it is! When POLAR BEARS ATTACK!

Is it 2009 yet????

[shira467]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 11:19am

Just a couple more days, Tink.

Are you looking forward to the New Year?

[D2]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 11:20am

Who isn't?

[shira467]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 11:21am

I'm not, personally. 2009 so far is scary for me - no job, no school, no stability. And I don't like it!

[D2]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 11:32am

Feeling something like this, Shira?

[shira467]

Posted: 12/29/08 at 11:35am

Pretty much.



A little more Black Hole-ish.

Weird coincidence over in Avataria, huh, Girly?
