When I was young, I loved playing Monopoly. Although I haven't played the game in over 50 years, I still have an affinity for the game.

Tonight, it was my first trip to Yonkers for games in at least a month, and I had a great time. Although the games we play are modern, and not any of the ones I played while young, I am glad that I played this game as a child.
Am I good at these games? No! It's hard for me to play with any strategy in mind. That part of my brain has withered from lack of continued use. If you don't exercise selected skill sets, they become weak. today, I'm more of a tactician than a strategist when playing games. It's just as well. It's not like I need to be a good game player when there are so many other things I must spend mental energy on.
What was interesting about tonight was one comment made my evening. One of the gang who has seen me a million times paid me a compliment for wearing the above dress. It is very comfortable and hides many of my worst "assets".
Although I have the same dress in two different prints, I'm glad I have all three in my closet. They all make me feel good, and make me glad that I "outed" myself to be able to live the life I want to live.
