It's bad, I'm playing ~Scrabble~

... and Scrabble is one of Eddie Izzard's favorite games - but not mine. I continue to talk about the rainy boring days here. There is only so much cooking, quilting and relaxing one person can day in a day.

I need action.

I want to ride my bike, walk the dog or something!! The husband won last night at Scrabble with the word:

Queso!

He won with cheese??

    How funny! I will have to email myself this list of words for when I play scrabble on a rainy day!

    I love playing scrabble..Smile

  • donnamg said 6 months ago

    I love Scrabble and most word games, such as Upwords and Boggle.  But, I can see that you really want to DO something....not cleaning and not something just sitting down.  Maybe get a little daring...who cares!...and mark off an area of the floor and play hopscotch, or sit on the floor and play pickup sticks or jacks or, do you have Twister?  A jump rope?  A hula hoop? A waste basket can be a perfect thing for a basketball game! lol  Ok, maybe none of these will do, buy I'm just trying to come up with ideas to help.

    ah ha! My son has a great workout jump rope in his room. ( He is married and his own house now as of last June, but I have his room as though he never left.)  Good Idea!!!!! Thanks ( PS Eddie love hopscotch too) LOL

    LOL- that is the funniest list of things to do to get up and going that I ever read.. but great, none the less.  I love this!

  • martne said 6 months ago

    If the jump rope doesn't do the trick, I suggest some good old fashioned puddle stomping!
