Full of Thanks

For a little while now I have had a mental block on writing.  It probably isn’t that much of secret, if you look at the last time I put up a blog post.  I even tried to jump start my writing by participating in NaNoWriMo, but despite encouragement, the words would not come. I can’t even tell you what triggered a mental block, because if I could then I would have been able to avoid it.  Maybe the adventures were too new and I wanted to soak them in before I spoke of them, maybe my brain has been busy solving anticipated problems at work, or maybe I was having an existential crisis.  It doesn’t really matter, I am writing now.

Recently (last week) I celebrated Thanksgiving.  It is a time to reminisce over the people in your life that have made a difference. It is also the carb loading cook off before one of the largest American shopping days of the year, Black Friday.  I personally am not one to participate in marathon shopping and as refuge for those that do not shop, my husband and I host Black Friday Game Day.

This annual gathering has grown through out the years into epic proportions of Tom foolery.  The diversity of games creates a jovial atmosphere that lead to good natured teasing.  It is not unrealistic to expect my terrible dice skills to be called out or for everyone to expect Ralph to be The Thing, even if he isn’t, because we all know he really is.  The point of Game Day is to come together and have fun. 

Here are a list of games that were accomplished this Black Friday Game Day:

• Epic Spell Wars of the Battle Wizards: Duel at Mt. Skullzfyre
• The Thing
• Survive
• Murder of Crows
• Bears Vs Babies

I am thankful for everyone that came out to Game Day. It is the people in life that make the difference and it is always a joy to create good memories. Thank you.
