3/10 Writing

I have a few articles to write today and several to edit. But I want to go outside and play hopscotch. Well, I'm not much of a jumper any more, so maybe I'll play FourSquare. As long as my nephews aren't around to bruise me with the darn ball, it would be fun. Yes, friends, I have spring fever. I want to play. I want no responsibilities. I want to go on a picnic. I want to be with someone special and enjoy his company. I want to be surrounded by my kids and grandkids. I want to have an adventure. I want... whatever...

Instead I'll continue listening to Beach Boys' music and pretend.

And back to writing.

I used to love to play four square. I'm ready for Spring, too. :)

My family and I still play it. If a youngster rotates in, we're nice, but if it's all grown ups, we play jungle rules. Sad part is that I usually lose badly. Not that I can't be aggressive enough. I can. I'm just the oldest in the family. Unfortunately there's no Masters' League and I have to compete with the young'ns.

I want...I want...I want....ROB TO COME HOME AND BRING HIS DARLING WIFE. Think you could arrange that???? Actually I got all I wanted today...My 3 Sons are HOME> Eric says "Bring it on, Aunt Jer, I'm the best" (at 4 square that is)

It's only 8 days left, Aunt Cindy! We are as excited as you are!!! Mom did all that--bringing us home. :-)
Mom, it really sounds like you are in spring mood... Your posting was very refreshing! I can't wait to see you playing and being "aggressive"! ;-)

Cindy, you can tell Eric that I already admitted he can whoop me at FourSquare. But I win a "jer games."

One week from today, kiddo. They'll be in the states. I'm finding it hard to concentrate at work.

Beata, you've seen me aggressive. When we played Scrabble at your house in Okinawa. Yeah, I'm a real animal.

An animal!? Oh, Mom, you always manage to make me laugh!!!! :-)
