Prompt: Family Traditions

Write about a few of your favorite family traditions.

The prompt is making quite an assumption there by asking for a few family traditions. With my grandparents I guess one tradition could be surviving the depression. I really did not think we had any family traditions. I ask my new friend ChatGPT what a family tradition is? It gave quite a broad answer. Not only that, it gave me suggestions for me to start my own family traditions. With such a broad definition I guess my Mom and Dad and I did do some things on a regular basis. During the winter we went bowling every Saturday night. During the summer my Dad and I went golfing almost every weekend. My Mother and I went to Sunday school almost every week. That had such a positive effect on me that I never go to church as an adult. I feel my life is much better off and more fulfilled because of that. I think my Dad the atheist influenced me there. There were lots of things my parents and I did on a regular basis but I never looked at them as family traditions. Thanks AI for opening my eyes. We are snowed in here in Pittsburgh with frigid temperatures predicted forever. I will be responding to all the prompts no matter how silly I think they are over the next week or two. I will be writing other blogs here and there. Right now I am going to start a new family tradition. I am going to start shoveling snow. I am going to take my time since I am old and feeble. I should be done by Easter. That reminds me of another family tradition. Being pissed off about a holiday being on Sunday.
