The Once Monthly Board Game Night

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.

Thanksgiving !!

Today is perhaps the most optimistic day of the year. It's Thanksgiving !
The day that we say, "we are so blessed."
The day that we say "it could be a lot worse."
The day that we enjoy our optimism.
Everyone knows the story of the pilgrims. They had a rough time and in the end it worked out and they were thankful.
This is our day to realize that when we step back and look at our lives, it's all working out.
Sure, there are things we don't like.
There are certain aspects we'd change, but in all, it's good.
Sometimes our families can aggravate us. But, we wouldn't trade them for the world. Sometimes life can aggravate us but, we're alive, we're healthy, and we're Thankful !
Have a Great Thanksgiving !!
