I had not thought of sleep apnea, but usually with that you drop off at odd times. He doesn't. He has uncontrolled thoughts about God, wrongful thought which stress him further. I have prayed so much and so have many others. He helped a woman who tried to commit suicide and was hanging by the neck over a bridge., He pulled her up by the roe. Since then the stress started. <br />God Bless your kindness. Crystal Mary.

I would love to see your collection. I would like more but I'm "decluttering" and I have enough already I think ;-) Thanks for the tip on the Madagasgar Solitataire. I see some rules say you must end with a marble in the middle and others don't. I've been playing it but not ending up with a marble in the middle. I will now try it the other way!Joyfulhttp://www.snapthatpenny.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-11606119322773588622011-05-14T18:14:30.397-07:002011-05-14T18:14:30.397-07:00Hi Graham, it's been a busy time for me.

For years we have had the game board and little marbles in a box in the basement, but about a year ago I decided to search the internet for rules, and found them on eHow. Hope you enjoy playing it.<br /><br />Thanks for the walk down memory lane!<br /><br />LindaLindahttp://www.spiritualmemoirs101.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940863090367389327.post-69363201473009464222011-05-14T03:18:48.771-07:002011-05-14T03:18:48.771-07:00Hello Penny ...
