I was having a conversation the other day with my daughter; who made the statement to me that I should let my blood pressure go up. Speaking in ignorance not knowing what high blood pressure will do, I shared a few facts with her about high blood pressure; which included being on medication, the possibility of having a stroke, or a heart-attack. Once she discovered the results of what high blood pressure can do, she changed her mind and said don’t let it get that high. Over the years my daughter has not really ever seen me get so upset. She really thinks I’m Mr. Cool. I attempt to keep my cool when I’m being provoked; I can get very angry, but I manage to stay in control though tempted at moments. The bible says’ “be angry, and do not sin. Psalms 4:4.” It’s repeated in the New Testament “Ephesians 4:26 be angry, and do not sin.” You want to be able to control your anger, rather than having your anger control you.
Monopoly is a real-estate trading game for two to eight players. Players move their piece around a board by rolling dice, the board being divided into various properties and special squares.
Players can acquire the properties, and once they have a set of related properties, improve them with houses or a hotel. When a player lands on another player’s property, a rent is charged, the amount of rent being based on the whether the owner owns the whole set of related properties, whether the property has been improved with houses or a hotel, etc. Players can also sell properties to each other, and an important part of the game is striking such deals with other players.
Barney the purple dinosaur is a kid’s classic, though his popularity does tend to drop off drastically as kids get older. Barney and his troupe of friends are of course very easy to find with themed party items, and favors. If your buying all of your party supplies for a Barney themed party at the right stores, then it’s more a matter of knowing what not to buy rather than what to buy. Just don’t go to over board, and remember that if it makes noise you have to listen to it. If all else fails, the color purple, rainbows, and dinosaurs will all work well.
