After church this morning we headed south to Oklahoma.
Tomorrow we will have a memorial for my sister who passed away in January.
We were preparing the church and cleaning. I arranged the flowers in some pretty vases.
For some reason the pictures are not moving from my phone to my laptop. Maybe I will add them when I go home.
Bob has gone on to bed, and I need to as well.
We also were introduced to a new card game. We played Uno Flip. For a little while. Uno has a lot of games. Do you have a favorite?

I really like Skip-Bo but usually can't find anyone who is interested in playing cards with me. There's a card/board game I really like, too, called Sequence... but nobody has time to play it, either.

@JudyEv I haven't played either game in years. Pretty hates card games and I'd love it if you lived close enough we could play.

@DaddyEvil I play Skip-Bo and a lot of other card games on the computer. Hubs isn't a game player either; so that solves that problem.

@LadyDuck Vince used to play backgammon about real people but he discovered there is an app which helps you win but it is hidden so you don't know. But when players throw 2 or 3 doubles at the end of the game when they're losing then you start to expect cheating. Now he plays against the computer and wins some but loses others. He is happy that it seems legitimate with no cheating.

I imagine you have some kinds of family games you play.

Growing up we had lots of game days. Not so much now.

@GardenGerty I have about 200 games installed on my computer. I used to play a lot; but I haven't in a couple of years now.

I hope everything works out well enough that this is as least stressful as possible for you. I really hope you just feel love and peace through all of it.
I have only ever played traditional Uno, I think. It’s one of those card games everyone seems to enjoy no matter what the age.

I'm sorry about your sister. I'm sure the memorial service was nice.

It was good to have the service. It marks a closure point and reminds people of the good things about sis.

Yes, there are. People seem more focused on their media and computer than on games played with others.

Tomorrow would be busy day for you. You need to rest well for the night.
I play original uno with my daughters. It's been quite some time that we have played any card games.
