Checkers

Playing checkers with bottle caps on a flat wooden board.

I wonder what kind of stories were swap between or among those who gathered together as the players play this game. I myself love playing checkers. A few years ago, I enjoyed playing this with my PDA.

The use of bottle caps is ingenious, because when one cap is lost, you can just easily open a bottle and you get a new replacement. This is unlike using titanium rings. I wouldn’t want to use these rings with this board game of course :D

Busy

I’ve been busy these days to take new photos. I do still take photos mostly with my crappy mobile phone camera.

The children’s studies take precedence over other things. So When I am not busy researching ph meters, homemade detergent soap and equations, I am helping out review for quiz bee competitions.

The house chores at time had to be scheduled (except of course the cooking).

A few weeks from now summer vacation will be here and I would welcome the break, except I am not prone to being idle.
