I've created a monster! Yesterday afternoon we dug out the Monopoly game and started playing (my first game is years & years). The girls have both played with Peter a couple of times but I think Tara was probably a bit young to get the idea then.
Well, she's got it now!!! We played for a few hours late yesterday with Tara, Danah & I - I nearly missed by 6.30 eye lash tint appointment because I didn't want to leave the game!!! We put it on hold until I got home at which stage I managed to gain control and win!
Today Tara really wanted to play again but Danah had a friend over for the day so it was just Tara & I. Little miss money-bags whooped my butt! What have I done? She did play more strategically today - didn't spend every cent every chance she got and it paid off in the end. Maybe not such a bad idea after all.
I've also been searching today.....for a photograph....one I KNOW I've got....somewhere! It's an old one of me (circa 1980's) with a 80's hairdo! I can see the photo in my mind and I know I've seen it recently (well in the last four years!) but do you think, now that I NEED it, that I can find it??? Of course not!
Finished another DT LO for LSBS - as soon as I saw Tara wearing this green shirt (which has a white swirly motif on it) I knew I had to photograph her wearing it. REally pleased with the result although my experimenting with angles might have been a bit severe. Next time I'll tilt a little less.

My new tupperware arrived today - have lots to deliver to others as well. It was like Christmas all over again unwrapping it all. My fridge is already looking better for it. WAtch out panty...it's your turn tomorrow!
It's also my turn tomorrow!! I've been taking the exercise a bit easy the last two weeks - while my back has been "tender"! But my darling friend, Sandy, is picking me up at 9.30am and taking me to the local Zest gym....for "take-a-friend-for-free" day! Ekkk...hope I survive! I've also pledged (to the LSBS Losers) to visit our local Curves gym (with my guest pass) on Wednesday to check it out as several of them rave about it! So it's back into it - no more excuses!!!
Finally - here's a fun pic of Tara and I both wearing our glasses! She was in tears last night because she couldn't find them *she uses them just for reading* She hasn't wanted them all holidays and searched high and low for them. Luckily I knew where they were. SHe hasn't had them off since! Even when she's not reading!!

We love to play monopoly too. We have the Simpsons version in our house of course.
Ah Monopoly - what a classic. The photo you took is cool.
Love the pic of you and Tara it's great. Good to see you on the 'other side' of the camera.
I'm loving the angles!
And yes I do rave about Curves... sorry bout that. :)
