My 20 Thing's from My Childhood 10-08-07

Susan we can always count on you to come up with something good and have to make us think back so far. But it is nice to think back sometime's when time's were good and funny.



1. Shopping Downtown at Sears and Piztiz.

2. Riding a bus downtown.

3. Stoping by the Tomale man in Ensley for supper or lunch sometime's if we were lucky.

4. Camping out in the wood's and sleeping on Elephant Ear's this was a big plant that grew in

in the wood's.

5. Fishing from the river bank's and seeing snake's go by as you fish.

6. When I was younger and had stronger leg's I use to play with my uncle's and wrap my

leg's around them and not let them go until they fell sometime's.

7. WhenI would get in trouble my Mom sometime's would use a flip flop are a paddle from

those old ball paddle we all use to love to play with.

8. I had a dog that was black as it could be but I can not tell you his real name, but you all

might be able to guess what it was without me writing it down if not just ask me.

9. I was always happy to get home from school and watch Cousin Cliff show before I

started my home.

10. When I was in 2nd grade I had a teacher that would use a ruler on your had if you

gave trouble in her class. Oh yes I got it one time and one time only.

11. When we started camping in a Tent I had an Uncle that went with us and he had

a boat I enjoyed boat riding with him. We had so much fun back then.

12. When I would get my homework my Mom always had to set with me other wish I

would not get my homework done. Later on I paid for this in life with Ben.

13 When I was younger I like playing on the top of the house when Dad was up on it.

Also I climb tree's so I guess you could say I had a bit of tom boy in me.

14. I always had to help my Mom with the chicken's that we had. That is help catch them

kill, and well cut apart. Then we always ate one for supper.

15. Another thing I had to do was help gather egg's and that was not easy because if a

hen was on one it made it hard to get the egg. But my Mom would get her off the

egg so I could get the egg's.

16. My Mom loved to make quilt's and I enjoyed playing underneath the fram's with

my sister Patsy.

17. My sister Patsy and I would lay the chair's over on the front porach and make a

house out of them while Mother washed clother's on the porach.

18. My Aunt Nola and Uncle Bobby spoiled me rotten . I spent alot of time with them,

staying all night,going out to eat,shopping. Of couse after they had kid's of there

own I did not know what to do.

19. I enjoyed spending time with my grandparent's when they were living. They

were special people to me.

20 My special time that I can think of was one Christmas when we went out looking at

Christmas light's. We had so much fun doing this all the time. For one time when

we came home we had 3 Christmas stocking's on the front poarch and we did not

know where they had came from. Still don't know until this very day.





I loved doing this so much it tell's me that we did have some good time's .
