How Many Here Remember This

I don't know why this popped into my head but...who remembers the "story" we all contributed to using only names of tv shows?
I remember I added to the ending of the boy saying to his dog "let's go home"
That was such a fun thread

What lovely nostalgic stories! My memories of a cold winter morning were of the rattling coming up the big old round furnace pipes as Dad shook the ashes out of the grates and put some more wood blocks on the coals to start the fire going ... the heat came more quickly if he'd bought some coal in the fall and put some on the fire at night, for there'd be more coals left. We cut our own wood from trees that were dieing in our woodlot. Then Dad went to the barn to milk the cows and feed them - as we got older, we had to go out to help, mainly feeding the cattle. We fed the work horses and the beef cattle and pigs (we didn't call them "swine") in another barn after breakfast - but went to school on school days. Eight kids in one-room elementary school, separate doors for "Boys" and "Girls", with toilets over a tank in the separated basement. We'd line up by the "Boys" entrance door from cloakroom and march around to our desks as the teacher played, "English Country Gardens" on the piano. The big kids helped the littler ones with their work, part of the time. Once a bit of a distant neighbour came into the little general store in the village when I was there, about 4 years old, I think and Dad was in a side romm getting something, and when he saw me is reported to have said, "No need to ask who you are - Dick Baker will never be dead as long as you're around!". Dad died 23 years ago ... and there was 28 years difference in our ages. When he was in his 80s, he'd drive 2,000 miles alone every year from the Prairies down here to London to visit old friends ... in 3 days. We used to say that he was crazy ... but agreed that when they're 80 or so, you may as well save your breath to cool your porridge as tell them what they should do. Did I say that? Brother said that he was too tight to spring for more than two nights in a motel on the road ... and when I asked what was the difference - he'd spend about three weeks in a motel when he was down here, brother replied, "Oh, yeah - but he gets a weekly rate from them!". Did someone say something about apples not falling far from trees? Have yourselves a great spring weekend, everyone. ole joyful

How Many Cancer Survivors Are Here??

I am so amazed at everyone here. We all have a story to tell. Some are harder then others. When it is said that you don't know until you have walked in their shoes, this is truier then you could ever imagine. I remember my sisters last battle with cancer. She decided not to do any treatment. Her doctor was wonderful to her. He told her if it was his mother facing this he would advise her in the same way. We had thought we would have my sister through the hoildays. She died two months later on September 4th. Sadly, it was on my youngest daughter's 30th birthday. I lived about an hour away and went every other day to spend time with her. When we knew time was running out I packed my bags and told my hubby I wouldn't be back until it was over. I am so thankful I was there. My grandma died a horrible death with cancer. I saw her for the last time on my wedding day. We went to her house after the ceremony. While on my honeymoon I called every day to check on her. We came home early so I could see her one last time. She died 30 minutes before we got there. She was a fabulous lady and only 54 years old. I have lost 17 loved ones from both my family and my hubbies.. It changes a person's life forever. For myself, I don't think of it often. I go get checked when I need to and live my life to the fullest every day. I worry about our daughters and grandaughters having to someday deal with this. But, that being said, we can't sit back and wait for it to happen. If it happens we will do all we can to stand together and deal with it.. Cancer is no longer a death sentence like it was years ago. I also know when you are first told it is the first thing to come to a person's mind. It is hard not the think this way. I pray everyone here has the best that life has to offer them. For me I think of my wonderful father-in-law so much. I know when I have a really great day he is smiling down at me and saying, "Great job, Susie." Some days I really feel like he is patting me on the back. Enjoy all you have..

Hi, How is everyone? How many are in a Drought like here??
Q

Our Memorial Day rains came on schedule, but they have been followed by winds from just about every direction except coastal. We rely on humid coastal breezes, even 200 miles inland, to slow the evaporation from the soil. When the air dries out the temps increase another 10 degrees, so we're touching on the 100s now. I had to water this week and likely will go on a weekly schedule unless the winds of changes shift. With normal southeasterly winds I can go 10 days to 2 weeks between watering.

Bobby Rydell has died
Q
Comments (37)
So many singers from his era (1959-1964) were Italian-American, including Fabian and Frankie Avalon (who I think were also from Philadelphia), but Bobby Rydell was my favorite of those, although I had more Bobby Vee albums, and he stood out for not being Italian! One of the Bobby Rydell albums I have has a picture frame on the cover with a cut-out, so that you can slide out one 12"x12" photo of him and see another one underneath. So many albums back then had huge face photos of the singers, and I remember that my older sister's friends would kiss the covers. I thought that was a bit silly, but then I never understood teenage girls. Bobby Rydell was one year and four days older than Bobby Vee, and they had a lot in common with regard to their lifestyles. I think they both married childhood sweethearts. I did not start buying records until the Beatles era, but I did buy a lot of oldies once I did.
