JUST JUNE....Day 2

 


A new month began yesterday.  Whew almost a half year over. 
It was a trying experience as I was with my husband at the heart doctors yesterday.  The nuclear stress test was stress for me to endure waiting with him. After all that I needed a stiff drink. 
Terry’s first old fashion toy word was BALL and JACKS. I loved playing as a kid. I never could master more than fours and I practiced a lot. Like many old toys of long ago this one sure is not played these days. 
My piece on playing bar poker so true. After a guy would leave the club once the games begin, I’d win. He’d play a few hands and leave. Once he does my luck changed. Happened three times in a row. I told him last night, you played one hand now leave.  After he left I won the next hand. Now is he my lucky charm or unlucky? Can’t say. 
This is a short read today. 
I did a whimsical about jacks; no longer play jacks but Jack Daniels instead. 
Until tomorrow....have a good day and as always Stay Safe.

      LUCKY or UNLUCKY CHARM
 I have a lucky charm....at least I think 
     so
They have to leave the club when I play     
      bar poker
Seems I never win when they are there
I’ve won after they   
    departed....happened three weeks in 
        a row
My lucky charm mustn’t be around 
  once the game begins 
But needs to be there prior to play 
Is this person my lucky charm
  not sure but three has been a charm

                  JACKS
Bounce the ball, pick up a jack 
Many hours I played the game
Alone and with others
Twosies, bounce the ball pick up two jacks 
A fun pastime played indoors and out
Threesies, bounce the ball pick up three jacks
Just don’t leave a jack left on the living room floor
Ouch....ouch...stepping on one in bare feet 
I never got past foursies 
Not fast enough or coordinated enough 
      I guess

                JACKS and JACK

Loved to play with jacks 
 when I was a little girl
Many hours I spend bouncing the ball
  trying to pick them up 
Now I am older no longer play 
  the jack game
But Jack is still part of my life
  Jack Daniels that is

  WACKY HOLIDAYS JUNE 1st
(National Go Barefoot Day; National 
 Nail Polish Day; National Pen Pal Day
  and National Olive Day)

I’m going to polish my toe nails
  But refuse to go barefooted 
Sitting at the desk I’ll write to my
  pen pal 
Drink a martini while I do
 three olives of course
