Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[WDWEPCOT]

We used to sit around and just read trivia cards or trivial books just read the questions out and see if anybody can get the answers it’s fun !! It’s a great game to play to pass the time!!

welcome to the club

Club membership is card carrying ingredients of something artificial...then.. pondering.. what do you want more Artificial in your life...the intelligence of your phone or the intelligence of the faux bacon you are cooking..
SO many reality game shows of folks cooking

If I get a quote of the day for stupid phone I would get it every day because I can check and then it goes back and changes what I said after I change it because my phone knows better than I do what I wanna say
We argue constantly my phone and me

Jeopardy
I loved playing Memory with my grandchildren. They would usually win! Such wonderful young minds!
I enjoy playing pinochle. I remember watching my grandparents playing with their friends. I never could figure out how a 9 could beat kings and aces! Happy memories!

I have great memories of watching Wheel of Fortune when we lived in NY. I am sure that my DD learned her letters from Wheel more than she did from Sesame Street.

I love my word games on my phone, Wordle, Strands, and Connections

Growing up, my sister and I loved to play the game of Life

(Sorry for the late start today - busy with family )

Today's Topic (Mon, 7/7) - 3 favorite hang-out spots you've been grateful for over the years

My House all the kids came to my house to play we had a swingset we had a big yard we were kind of centrally located in the subdivision we had a dog that love to play with the kids and if it was raining they had a nice big empty garage to play in
All family gatherings were held at my house because the family members and the friends at the time all lived in apartments so they didn’t want to host at their apartments they picked my house

DISNEY it’s a gathering spot I gather there every year sometimes more than once a year and because I needed my DISNEY gathering spot I have no other gathering spots cause I saved all my money so I could go to DISNEY and I’m OK with that

Time with family is such a grace indeed dear PollyannaMom. Your relatives are certainly blessed to have you and so are we to call you our friend

Meeting spot at times with my friend S who has been a Godsend to me in general and recovery wise.

Dad and I God willing, later this year will enjoy hanging out at home together again. Meantime what a gift it is to visit with each other here.

Not so much a hangout but years ago, grandma and I had Monday dinner at the same family restaurant. We always sat in our waitress friend M's section. Years later, but pre pandemic, dad and I built similar memories together at a Denny's with our waitress friend, J.

You might be able to change your phone settings to shut off that annoying "feature".

1 - my house - I have become so much of a homebody.
2 - my mom's house - still love to go over and visit

Three hangout spots I am grateful for:
1 - my house - I have become so much of a homebody.

My wife is not a homebody but I am and she asked why,,,.......
From 1985 when I married into a massive estate till 2005 I worked 7 days a week.. I did not watch TV, I didn't golf fish nor read books
BUT now I can read, have my dog aerobics walk me and talk across the fence with neighbor... because I am a homebody ,........
.... except for Wednesday my favorite hangout is the first Nation casino that supports the Yuma area
They have a 2$ breakfast the Denny's wants 10$... AND a 6$ Burger that Carl wants 12$ AND as a veteran I get 20$ in free play.. Wednesday only... and because I miss Oregon..I drive thru the Colorado River flood basins and let my nose HANG OUT and smell the harvest of alfalfa... natural scent that even a candle can't provide

I'd second all 3 of these, these are the places i spend most of my time. My neighbourhood especially I'm so grateful for as it gives me so much in the way of nature and nice walks. And my mum's house usually provides a lot of food

Does each room have the chair or is it community? Skammania Lodge has them to the community with view of Columbia gorge

My puzzle table, my fire ring, and the road I walk in my neighborhood. I'm a homebody too. When I'm really lucky, it's my balcony at Copper Creek. It's a great place to take a nap.

Home

Kidani and VWL balconies

This is a weird one, but the times when I sit in the backseat with my DGD when we’re driving her to my DD’s house, which is about an hour away. We have the best conversations

 

[PollyannaMom]

my cousin's camper when we were kids - we used to go sit it at family gatherings and imagine the far-away places we were driving to

the lobby of my college dorm - it had a great pool table and lots of seating for the TV

playgrounds when DS was little - if we were ever bored at home, there was always someone for him to play with and someone for me to chat with
