I played most every sport. Hide and go Seek, Kick the Can, all your typical outdoor games.

We also played a game with pocket knives, we would stand opposite each other with feet spread apart, throw our knives and see who could get closest to the other persons foot without stabbing them. Of course the other person could move their foot and lose if they were scared of getting stuck.

The only board games we had were homemade checker sets. We played a lot of card games, my favorite was Euchre, which I still love playing today.

Good morning everyone! Happy Monday! :-)

Melfie...I LOVE playing spoons! That game is a lot of fun. Granny, I love your Dominos story. That really made me smile.

Thanks to all of you for sharing your childhood games. It sure brought back lots of good memories. :-)

Today's question is: Do you have a safe in your house for storing valuables?

Yes I do.

No, I guess I'd need to get some valuables before I get a safe.

LOL Jagger. Well my "valuables" are only valuable to me. They're not worth money. :-)

Nope. Don't own anything "valuable" enough to warrant owning a safe.

yep, two of them. lockheed had a parking lot sale when they were getting rid of desks, cabinets and safes. we have a 2 drawer safe and a 5 drawer safe. they look like regular file cabinets, except that they have massive locks on them and even the small one weighs at least 300 pounds! the big one is about 500-600 pounds.

Nope, anything important goes to the safety deposit box. Don't really have anything that'd be valuable to anyone else so don't feel the need to have a safe at home.

No. Keep them in the bank in a safety deposit box.

Nope. But I may inherit my mom's. (I bought it for her--at her request, so I am pretty sure it will be returned to me when we finish sorting through everything.)

Those of you with safety deposit boxes: Be sure to either make a will or add your children's names (or a trusted family member's name) to your safety deposit box. Getting access after your death (you never know when that might happen) without one or the other can be a real hassle. (My mom went through difficulties when her common-law husband died suddenly without a will.)
