Today was games

Bingo scorecards have 25 randomly numbered squares on them, with the word "BINGO" written across the top.   Your goal is to cover 5 of those squares in a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal row.  In standard Bingo, there are 75 different letter-number combinations.

Why am I telling you this?  I haven't played Bingo since I was a child.  Well, maybe not since I taught my children how to play when they were little.  But today, my friend Jane came to the Crown Center, and we played with they group here that regularly does this on Saturday mornings.

One person said she plays Bingo to keep her mind active.  My way of using my mind, though, is by playing with words by blogging or playing Bananagrams
 or doing crossword puzzles.  As I tell people, I'm a wordsmith.
