Forgotten blessing...

I forgot to say what a blessing Friday and Saturday were when my husband ended up home most of the day Friday and all day Saturday. He also ended up home all day today due to a blizzard out there. I forgot about it on Saturday when I wrote probably because I don't think I saw him much all day. He worked out in the garage most of the time. Another blessing, he cleaned out a good deal of the garage! For some reason we can never get that place clean. It piles up with all manner of things that I can't figure from where they came. It still looks like a huge pit but one you can walk through. He also fixed several drawers in the kitchen that were dragging and had missing hardware. You have to be careful when you pull out a drawer, they slide so easily! A curtain rod that came apart is now together and we played a marvelously fun game tonight as a family.

OK, I have to tell you this game. It would be a great party game. Emily got it from a birthday party. Everyone playing has a piece of paper. You have one die and one pen. You pick a goal number, we picked 100 the first time. Pass the die around with each person shaking it once. If a five is rolled that person picks up the pen and starts writing numbers to 100 on their paper. Keep shaking the die around the table trying hard to get a five so you can take the pen from that person before they get to 100. If another person gets a five they take the pen and start writing and so it goes until someone does get to 100. Lots of laughs and fun and dad won!
