Allison has been quite busy knitting lately. This time she is knitting for the kids and has made them some fingerless gloves. She made them for Andrew first and he couldn’t wait for a full pair so he wore one glove to school for a couple of days. Allison finished that pair and then moved on to making Eva some and also a matching hat for her. The kids both love their gloves very much and are excited to wear them.

Tonight I stopped over at my parent’s house and went up into the attic and found my old WildStorms CCG cards. I have four boxes filled with cards which have sat up in the attic for about 10 years now. Waiting….
Waiting for the day when one of the kids becomes old enough and interested enough in collectible card games and wants to play with me. Eva started a few weeks ago becoming interested in playing Magic the Gathering. I had a couple of starter packs and she asked if she could use them to play. I said sure and we played a few rounds. I figured it was time to dig these out so that we could play. I have an almost complete collection of cards somewhere, in a giant rubbermaid tote, probably also in the attic. Way back in 1997 or so when these were being produced I ordered them by the case. I traded online and I was very knowledgeable of the cards. However, I never played. I knew no one who played. So I’ve been Waiting…
Waiting for the kids to be ready to play. Now they are and now we must learn the rules of the game and then put together decks with which to battle. There is a comic book version of the rules somewhere in my archives that I also need to find, but in the meantime I found a WildStorms CCG resource page that has all the rules on it. I’ll get Eva a copy to read and we can play in the near future. I the meantime I need to find my collection and see about completing it. I have 6 cards missing, I think.
