Seagrass, wish I could give yours many likes!!!!!!!

Oh the horrors! I still remember in 4th grade I had a class with a teacher who was known for being mean. She always struck terror in my heart. Well, we were supposed to have our school book covered by the next day, and I completely forgot and had left it at school. I was in tears! So my folks gave me a large brown paper bag cut open and showed me how to fold it to cover it without tape. I did that as soon as I got to class. Of course only about half the class had their book covered. Wouldn't you know it, she came over to my desk and picked up my well-covered book to show the class how it should be done!! Phew!! Permanent record saved!!

Jasdip, no, I don't. That was a bit of an issue with my first job out of college, while I waited for my real job (in a hospital) to start: piercing ears in the jewelry department of a local department store. I had to wear the full "nurse" kit - white uniform etc and my cap (which I never wore again). It was an issue because several wavering customers asked to see my earlobes. What could I say? I told them I "hadn't gotten around to it yet." Eight for me.

When grandparents I know say, ”Enjoy them while they’re young”, they are talking about backs, knees and hips. tj
