It is indeed valuable for both those admirable purposes."<br /><br />So, keeping up "ancient customs" like using the computer. (Well, computers can, kind of, sort of, in a way be called "ancient", at least compared to any new games you may invent.)<br /><br /><b>That is one thing that will always stick in my head about Christmas is the cold chill out of doors and the warm air indoors :)</b><br /><br />:-) Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00108843791322871067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314423604373130624.post-24084889434313419322012-11-15T00:03:09.823-05:002012-11-15T00:03:09.823-05:00So are you saying I really should throw my compute...So are you saying I really should throw my computer out ;) LOL Just kidding. I like this one. We often as adults lack the imagination and creative skills that children have for games. <br /> "it is not only a feast dedicated to domesticity, but it is one deliberately placed under the conditions in which it is most uncomfortable to rush about and most natural to stop at home." Especially this part. Awesome! That is one thing that will always stick in my head about Christmas is the cold chill out of doors and the warm air indoors :) coffeepotcurvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07461903059462063146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314423604373130624.post-1625279676998415432012-11-14T14:11:42.845-05:002012-11-14T14:11:42.845-05:00He has a good point!

My siblings and I came up with some unique games because we were left to our own devices without a lot of electronic devices.;) <br />I can imagine that our culture would profit enormously from being more domestic/family oriented.Inklings and Notionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09031744406685353311noreply@blogger.com
