    If you know me at all, you know I’m all about iNSD!! I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again, the games just are plain fun and provide a much-needed break from emptying my wallet

    Since I love journaling so much, I thought we’d have a progressive storytelling game to get our creative juices flowing. I’ll start the story, and each new person will copy and paste the in-progress story into a new thread and simply add some more details. I love this game because it’s so fun to see what twists and turns the story ends up taking. Just remember to keep your portion family friendly and have fun!

    You have until 11 AM EDT on Tues, May 9th to play this game. Then one name will be randomly drawn, and a $3 coupon will be awarded to the winner. Easy peasy and hopefully oh so much fun!

    So, let’s begin:

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    PROGESSIVE STORY:

    There once was a woman who waited all year for her scrapping goodies to go on sale. When the weekend was finally here, she started up her computer only to realize that………


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Okay, now it’s your turn. Let’s see where this story goes!

    RULES:
    1. Copy the ongoing story into a new thread and add to it.
    2. Keep the storytelling family friendly.
    3. You may play as many times as you’d like!
    4. Game ends at 11 AM EDT on Tuesday, May 9th.

    Have fun!!
