Next, your story is poignant yet filled with happiness. My parents didn't have a lot when I was little but so did many in our rural part community of WV. As kids, we didn't know it, though. There certainly wasn't a lot for extras and meals weren't fancy and there were many Christmases where we got very little but there was no complaining. It was the way things were and we made the most of it. Although, we aren't rich, we are far richer than our parents and I count my blessings every single day for everything God has graced our lives with. The privileged generation wouldn't know what it's like to walk in our childhood shoes. Thanks for sharing. Great job! Stay safe and be well, my friend!Cathy Kennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01738079671642137018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-73534812630563395182020-08-12T07:30:03.392-05:002020-08-12T07:30:03.392-05:00I find it amazing that vinyl records have made suc...I find it amazing that vinyl records have made such a huge comeback and I sold all of my collection years ago...I mean Y E A R S ago.

We didn't have much back then compared with today, but we made our own entertainment, and families and neighbours were so much closer then.<br />The scientists pencil cup is quite fascinating with both US and Imperial measures.
