I remember sliding out of the back of our squareback volkswagon after we got home from the beach when we lived in N.C. and I sat on a bee on the way out and I remember my brother and sister thought it was hilariuos!! Not me.
I remember my best friend Paula that lived across the street was hit by a truck on her bike while riding to school and was thrown as high as a telephone pole, my mom would not let me go to her funeral, I had nightmares for a long time. I was about 7.
I remember raking leaves with a toy rake my mom bought me and my brother tried to pull it away, I pulled back and it went up my nose and ripped off the side of my nose, I remember the fear on my moms face as she drove me to the hopsital for stitches.
I remember sitting in an old crab apple tree with my siblings and munching away on them, I don't think I got sick but I remember watching them throw up..hehehe
I remember seeing a teddy bear in my moms closet and when I saw it under the tree christmas morning I knew there was no Santa, I believe I was 8. |
My mother and grandmother use to get switches after us. I was a pretty good kid but my brother who is two years older than me was always getting into trouble. He got the belt taken to him a lot.
That was so sad what happened to your little friend and you getting hurt by the rake. I was lucky growing up, I never broke any bones but my brother broke his arm one time.
I don't think I have ever seen a crab apple tree. Shame on you for laughing at them. hehe
I do remember my mother catching my brother trying to smoke a cigarette when he was probably around 10 years old and she made him smoke a whole pack until he got sick. Let me tell you it did not work. He grew up smoking.
