Apologies for Myself

ARRGGHHH. This has been a crappy day!!! I have NOT been feeling well, and have spent the majority of the day in bed, or lying on the couch. After supper, Ry and I were gonna have a game of Upwards while he listened to the (football?) game on the radio. Anyway... if any of you have ever played upwards, you know that it can be a high scoring game when you work with smaller words, that are therefore easy to change again and again as the game progresses. My husband does not understand this. I tried to soften the punch when I told him that he sucked at the game, by telling him that he is the best scrabble partner ever- he is!! Anyway, He ended up getting mad at me, and told me he wouldn't play with me ever again. He told me that I was mean, and that when I played with Dawn weeks ago, I called her names and was mean. Really? I know that I was NOT a great sport that game, but was I really a jerk? Then I got really mad inside. Man, I hate it when he is right about the big things like that. I am so sorry Dawn Marie, and to you too, Ry. I know it can't be fun to play with someone who critisizes every move you make. What a dummy I am. Somewhere along the way, I became a competetive jerk. I'm sorry. And, if you ever dare to play with me again, I promise to keep my mouth shut and play nicely. To all of you reading, my apologies if I ever treated you badly during game-play. Hugs to all, from a broken hearted girl, feeling very, very stupid, and very, very sorry, Char

Oh deary.....no worries!!!

It's good advice you were giving me on how to play the game better! Now I find myself getting frustrated at Dale too when he goes and screws up some words for us! lol It's a learned thing I think. You don't realize the points you can get till you play lot's and realize the smaller words are better.

I bet you are taking this all more to heart today cause you are not feeling well. All things seem that much worse when you already feel crappy.

Hope you get better soon, and don't worry, I am soooo happy to have someone to play games with again! I used to play all the time in Grande Prairie and since we moved here we've never really found anyone who loves games like we do. So I am so thankful for you!

Have a good evening and we'll chat again soon,

Love Dawn
