There are many moments the past few years I’ve spent as an activity director that jump out as surprising or unpredictable, but what happened this afternoon just may take the cake for a while.
I was playing a dice game with five of our members and every so often one of them will rub the dice on the back of her head for good luck before she rolls. She rubbed the dice on the back of her head every turn this afternoon, and the lady sitting next to her, let’s just call her “Ms. Smiley,” wanted to try it out too. Her next turn she rubbed the dice on her head but alas, no luck. The next time it became her turn Ms. Smiley took the dice to her head again, but there was no luck on that roll either. So the next time around, and believe me, I was totally unprepared for this, she takes the dice and rubs them on her chest! And by golly she rolled the biggest roll of the day!
