THE GREEN DOOR HERNANDO'S HIDEAWAY-I guess those are early '50's. Marty Robbins was on the Juke Box with A WHITE SPORT COAT. I still have 45's from the '50's. I also have a small stash of feed sacks. I just washed them up, after being stored for a couple of years. I don't know if I can bear to cut them up. I got them when my mom died in '94. I have my 8th grade graduation dress, my Senior Prom dress. A lot of dresses my mom made for me for the 1st year of college. I turned out just like my mother in spite of all the protestations to the contrary! I was born on a farm in MO. MY great aunt midwifed. Her hands were the first to touch me. I think that is special. I love all history but I am thankful that I am living in the present time. All the new toys to play with, like computers. What changed me the most in my life-surviving CANCER-now every day is a bonus day and I try really hard to enjoy something in each one of them. I think I'm caught up with everything!
