Bingo! Seniors Just Want to Have Fun!


Well, my first resident council meeting took place last week. To bring you up to date (WHAT? You don't read my blog every day?) our new executive council (Pres., VP, Sec., Treas.) had a VP who did not want the job, nobody else volunteered, I offered to do it. I really thought my meeting days were over--HA! But, VP is the easiest anyway, just hang around in case the Pres. goes under. The pres. went under. She got a nasty infected thumb and had to go to ER an hour before the meeting, well, maybe she would returned in time, but no, she tripped while picking up her antibiotic for the thumb, leaving an apple sized welt on her 88 year old head.
So, the meeting was mine and it went just fine. I am a stickler for well run meetings. At the city, our meetings were so ridiculous that I confronted the dept. Director with an outline of "How to Run a Productive Meeting." If you leave an hour mtg. feeling you wasted your time, then the person in charge is at fault. Anyway, what got me the most was a woman way in the back who was very loud and disturbed about the fact that, well, here are her words: "Bingo is boring!"
So, yes, I have spent some time Googling Bingo this week and will have to attend a game soon. Every concern is important and every problem has an answer. I believe that. I live that.
PLEASE, anybody know of how to make Bingo less boring?
