First, we played Sequence. Baulderdash is Roland’s favorite, but I think
Sequence may be a close second. We
played two games. I won the first and
Roland won the second – but Jenna had gotten in two wins earlier in the
week. We then played a game of Blokus
and then a never-ending game of Monopoly.
Neither Jenna nor I were willing to sell or trade specific properties to
Roland and he was never fair about the amount anyway. We would make jokes as we moved our pieces
around the board. It was one of the few
times I have enjoyed myself while playing Monopoly
Roland said he wanted to go to the
bank and I wanted to go to the post office to mail a calendar to my sister –
not that she needs a calendar this early or wouldn’t be able to purchase her
own but I wanted her to have it. Jenna
and I had opened up a savings account for her and she asked if I could deposit
some more money into her account. I
reminded her that we’d be going to Canyonville Pioneer Days later on. Roland suggested that we just all go to the
bank together and go to the celebration from there.
I knew she
would be bored out of her mind and offered to let her run to the post office
while I put her money in the bank. I
told her to pay the smallest amount, but she did not even ask. She sent it priority mail which cost me more
than I had anticipated. I wish she would
have handled it in a different way. Oh, well.
Kayla received the calendar on Monday. She is definitely worth the cost.
We went to the Pioneer Days in Canyonville and enjoyed ourselves. I saw a friend I had made through the school
system and was able to introduce her to Roland and Jenna. It was a productive day entertainment-wise.
