I always lose. always
I’m surprised by this as I’m a pretty good speller but BW is better at the competition part of the game. As I am apt to do a lot - I half-ass it and place my word somewhere on the board. It’s not that I’m not trying it’s just that I don’t think like a professional scrabble player.

But as they say, it’s not whether you win or lose…
We haven’t played in some time as it takes a bit of time and we haven’t had much time for board games lately. Any little time I have in the evening seems to go to writing here.
Maybe I should stick to scrabble.
With our little charge in somebody else’s care BW and I managed to have a date night of sorts at home because who wants to leave the comfort of your own home? I suppose we should have taken advantage, but ubers and eating out is an expense we don’t really need.
Tonight BW told me that I hadn’t done anything today. I took the day off and scrubbed 2 bathrooms, cleaned up a child’s bedroom, stripped, washed and remade 2 beds, mopped the floor and have done too many dishes to count. I can hardly wait for my next day off.
Lastly, we’ve been on a 70’s music kick here this weekend and I’m currently listening to Bonnie Tyler. Not because I’m her biggest fan, but because of the cover:
I mean, look at that cover! I know it was the 70’s and all but I wonder who okay’d that cover? “Let’s put her face inside a diamond” they said. This has not aged well.
Here’s a link to all you need to know about this album.
That voice though - and I can listen to an entire album uninterrupted which is winning to me, even if I will never win at scrabble.
Until Next Time,
TH and Co.
