We have been getting together with friends for a game night and are going to try to keep up this once monthly pace. This is a great way to lift your spirits from the gloom that often times surrounds our daily grind. So far we have played several really good games and spent much time laughing. I think laughter really is the best medicine.
Games involving scharades are great for laughter and we have had lots of fun with trivia games as well, but even a plain old card game can certainly help to lift your spirits. So try to get one of these nights going if you can, it's great therapy for the soul.
