I have a mini van. I have a scorpion pit in my basement. My mom became depressed when my dad died too. I have five boys. They make a lot of trouble. My kids are aged 11,9, 7, 5 and 2. I have given them full reign as I cannot control them. I have a dog and a cat. I have a busy home life. I play sports. I coach basketball. I like war video games.
I have a grey German Sheppard named Barnaby. I hate scorpions. My dad was killed at a Nascar event when the wall did not hold up. I am suing them. My mother is becoming depressed. We are both very sad. My mother and I need to keep busy and occupy our minds for a while. my mom is having mental health issues and trying to help with exercise. I meditate sometimes. I give my time to the Humane Society. I play cards or board games. I prefer problem solving games. I used to coach. I'm trying to work out consistently. I love learning.
Have you ever tried yoga? I find it's the perfect combo of meditation and exercise No I haven’t. I should though I need to do something to get my mind off of all the stress I’ve been having. We still are having a hard time coping with my dad. Do you do yoga? Yes, I like to do yoga to get away from all the stress of my kids and life. It's great "me" time where I can turn off for 30 minutes or an hour. You and your mom can try it together. I will recommend it to her. Sounds like it might help. I don’t know how you do it with five young boys at home, you must really have your arms full with all of them. Any of them showing interest in basketball? They really have no choice or they get sent to the scorpion pit! haha I am kidding, but they all play in some form or another. Do you like basketball? I used to play but not too much. I like just shooting around and playing for fun. Maybe I can come watch your team play sometime soon. When is your next game? Next Friday! You should come and bring your mother. It might be a good distraction. I usually have everyone over for pizza afterwards as well, it will be fun. Sounds good. Maybe we can play board games after too. I’m sure your boys would like that.  I am sure they would! Maybe you could bring some of your favorite games with you to introduce to us? I have a few new ones I’d like for them to try. Just make sure the scorpions stay in the basement! Don't worry, they will stay away! What games would you like to play? Also, what kind of pizza toppings do you and your mother like? We like supreme and meat lovers pizza. Anything but pineapple. I have a new war board game you might like. It’s a lot like risk but a little different.
