Saturday Andrea and I spent the day making marbles boards. Marbles is a homemade board game that is played with marbles and cards and involves strategy and a ruthless lack of mercy. It is usually played in teams with guys against girls.
I enjoy working on marbles boards. I wouldn’t want to do it everyday but it is fun to lose yourself while working with a piece of wood. Making marbles boards is far from fine craftsmanship but it does allow me to cut, sand and route wood and feel like I could build fine furniture if I took the time to learn and just bought a few more tools ($$).
Life holds so much I’d like to do and experience but for now the focus of my life has to be more narrow than those things. And I’m okay with that.
