I love watching other people play video games, but I can't play them because they make me nervous. LOL. My son played soccer when he was younger and I really miss that. When the weather starts to crisp up, I start feeling nostalgic for those days. I do watch baseball and I am hated by my family La La in the Libraryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18253014225202985934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-32048289803169472142015-08-23T11:22:28.619-05:002015-08-23T11:22:28.619-05:00As a kid I was a super competitive tomboy, but now...As a kid I was a super competitive tomboy, but now not so much. My partner when we play the game Taboo practically beats me over the head if I can't figure out the answer fast enough, though, and she refuses to have me as partner for any card games.

Kids can seriously eat up the video game time!<br />I really enjoyed coaching. I got to know a lot of the kids and it was generally a lot of fun.

I am afraid to play it anymore for fear that old addiction will return. Cribbage is probably my most favorite game. My husband taught me how to play. He almost always wins. <br /><br />I'm not big into sports.

I know I could be bossy at points, but that was my need to win coming through. I also coached up until last year and like you I wasn't a win or die coach, but I will say it was hard to be on the sidelines when one of my girls missed a shot, etc...<br />BrittanyLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10645210938042967995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-28728022988771219002015-08-20T14:05:02.227-05:002015-08-20T14:05:02.227-05:00I'm glad to see you're good at being bad, ...I'm glad to see you're good at being bad, that's what I call positive thinking :D I don't really like games, don't watch sports, but used to play Monopoly and the likes when I was a kid :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5128730358349082407.post-450154614224174722015-08-20T11:04:17.383-05:002015-08-20T11:04:17.383-05:00Love games, all kinds.
