BYE-BYE GAMES

I deleted all but one of my games today. I probably should have gotten rid of them all. Cold Turkey worked for me when I quit smoking, but it never worked well with games. Believe me, I’ve tried. The worst thing was that every time I went back, I added more and more games.

Last month I even paid to keep playing one game. That is after I swore I would never spend a cent on games. I deleted that game as soon as I came to my senses.

I realize there are worse things I could be doing. Like sitting and eating bonbons all day while watching soap operas. Funny thing, I think there may only be one soap opera left. Not that I watch them, mind you.

Games are an addiction for me. Just like food. Oh, how I wish I was addicted to exercise, but I’m not fond of pain. For me, exercise equals pain. Even a simple walk for less than 10 minutes means I must turn around for fear I won’t make it home again.

Back to the games – or should I say back to writing? I have decided to fill the time I have been wasting on games trying to write again. Those of you who know me the best, know writing was always part of who I am. Not writing feels like I have lost something precious.

I don’t know how successful I will be. My problem isn’t writing something short like this blog. No, the problem is getting words for a story or novel from my brain to paper. I have been told this could be because of Parkinson’s Disease.

However, PD can’t stop me from trying! Games be gone! Writing be back!!! Pray for me friends. Pray I succeed. If I do, quite possibly, in a few months, I’ll be trying to sell you my next story.
