Unjournaling

Sorry- I am late!

When I think of journaling , I think about a psychological, introspective, diary-like entry and I do think these are an important component of reflective thought about what has taken place in our lives. Having said that, the ideas contained in this are just plain FUN!!! Oh my goodness! How do you choose where to start to play? I come from a family who traveled in a station wagon every year for vacation. Yes we had the back seat that either faced the back, looking to where we had just been, OR two seats that faced each other, and encouraged all kinds of physical foot, elbow, and knee jousting to claim a spot for comfort.(wheel humps didn't help!!!) We would sing for hours with some of the less-than-enthusiastic seven children holding their ears, as we traveled to and from thirty eight of the continental United States. Other games with word-play prompts from Mom or Dad would get us started whenever we were bored and the whining, "Are we there yets?" started.

Where was this book then? Well, no matter- I have it in my possession now!!! I can be the director of auto entertainment for my family trips,even though the kids are almost grown or adult by now, and for an annual sisters trip still that takes place. Then there is always the grand nieces, nephews and one day (not too soon!!!) the grand kids who will be introduced to playing these " word games." Some of you who "played" this week would be fun to take along too!
