High Stakes Bingo

Walking away from a bingo game with a handful of records, including Jane Fonda's workout and a Beatles 45 is amazing in and of itself. And yet that is nothing compared to the necklace from a New Years Gala in the 1950's or the veil from a Christening in the 50's along with the cross necklace that accompanied it. Rings from decades ago were also present.

It reminded me that it was more than a bingo game. In fact bingo was just a reason. Nothing really significant. The significance was all in the giving up of a saturday night to spend time with them. To just listen to their stories and laugh. The worst part about going back is wondering how their health with be when I come home again. I never want to lose them so every bingo game means more than a prize. Although this round of prizes will be constant memories when a time comes and I cant play bingo with them anymore.
