Sports related injuries...

The last surprise item that Santa delivered to the family this year was a Wii.

Since that time the family has been competing in Tennis, Bowling, Baseball, Golf and Boxing.

As a result, I have been experiencing muscle stiffness and fatigue.
I knew I was out of shape, but this is shameful!!
