In the last few years I’ve had many invitations to play games with my Facebook friends. Invitations also come from friends outside of Facebook. I then have to find the game and download it from the App store.

To play these games your intuition has to kick in because the games don’t come with instruction. It’s really sad when I play the same game level over multiple times but can’t move on to the next level. Sometimes frustration sets in and I put that game on the shelf only to start playing it again when friends nudge me so they can beat me like they always do.

My bowling team plays poker with multiple decks of cards. If we get a spare or strike we get a card. At the end of the game whoever has the best hand wins. The funny thing is we look up poker hands on the iPad or ask someone who wins.

The games I play will continue to be a part of my life for the time being. Maybe one day I’ll be able to beat my opponents.
