Video games are meant to be just one thing: Fun! Fun for everyone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A fire is crackling in the woodstove, I have my morning coffee, cats are fed and watered. I am mostly rested.<\/p>\n

Today is Sunday my traditional video game day. I used to play with my kids every Sunday. It is one of my best memories of them. Except of course the moment they were born. I was there in the room when they faced life for the first time. I don’t know if all four were my biological kids, but I raised them like they were, the best I knew how.<\/p>\n

Before video games, homework and chores needed to be done. That tradition continues.<\/p>\n

I will go out and gather a load of firewood before I start playing ME3. After coffee.<\/p>\n

It is warm and rainy,\u00a0 in January, crazy. This should be one of the coldest months.<\/p>\n

I am sure the cold will return. I am thankful because I can stretch my dwindling supply out a few weeks longer.<\/p>\n

I went out gathered wood in the rain. I loosened all the logs and log fragments I could, while the snow was soft. Soon that would turn to ice.<\/p>\n

Whose idea was it to wear a warm sweater under-insulated overalls to gather wood in plus four? Idiot!!! Oh ya that was me.<\/p>\n

The rain from Spain falls mostly on the plain. Or in Alberta<\/p><\/div>\n

Next, gas up the gen and beat the reapers. Oh and fill the snow bowl with very heavy snow.<\/p>\n

Must be 80 pounds today.<\/p><\/div>\n

Here is some gameplay and music from RDR 2 another video game I play. The music comes at a very dramatic part of the game.<\/p>\n
