A Few Of My Favourite Things
This was a question on another blog that I visit occasionally. It made me think of things that I haven't thought about in years. The person wanted to know what your favorite things were at the listed ages. These were my answers:
- Four? It was a rocking chair that was next to my bed.
- Seven? A favorite shirt that I wanted to wear with everything. I also loved my marbles game.
- Nine? Huffy bicycle with the banana seat. Everybody tried to steal it! I lived in a bad neighborhood. Eleven? An electric race car track and electric football game.
- Thirteen? My dog. He was a black Lab and shepherd mix named "White toe." Why that name? I was fascinated with Native Americans at the time. :)
- Fifteen? My hair brush and du-rag. I was trying to look cute by then. I had to have the waves going to the side. It was 1983! That was fun! I haven't thought about some of these things in years.

I don't know why these things made an impression on my brain, but I have those mental tatoos that I can always recall.
Thanks! I remember those years. My parents divorced when I was 3yrs old. I remember seeing the back of my father's head when he was leaving for good.

Haa haa!! lol :) Yeah, no more hairbrush. I'm gonna have to say that coca butter has taken it's place. I like to rub coca butter on my head after I shave. It soothes it. :)

Thanks! DC is an alien planet. :)

Yes, the waves in the hair were important back in the mid 80's if you were black and living on the East coast. :) I don't know how I remember back that far, but I honestly do.
Peace,
