I finally found some people in town that are my age and pretty close to my skill level to play with. Just played a game last night and had a really good time:
I won the game, which felt good. I also noticed lots of moments where I was tempted to make bad moves, then remembered those were mistakes in the past, and made better moves that actually worked.
Both my opponent and I made a few blunders and errors that we allowed each other to re-do, which made me realize that I’ve still got a long way to go before I reach 10kyu. But overall, I was entertained the entire time, and felt like I knew what I was doing.
My son (2.5 y) usually makes a few moves, and then he’s like “and now we build a house, okay?”, or he puts some of the stones in the bowl’s covers and tells us they are little hedgehogs. ^ ^
