I've been tagged by Katie (A special Family)
Katie tagged me to talk about 10 childhood memories! (hope they all didn't have to be good ones......)
1. Falling off a monkey bar and smacking my head open on CEMENT ( no joke they had cement under playgrounds back in the 70's)
2. Playing niki niki nine doors with friends and feeling really guilty and nervous but wanted to "fit in"
3. Learning how to ride a 2 wheeler with my father. I can still hear myself saying "don't leg go, don't let go" When I couldn't hear him say "I won't" anymore, I turned my head and fell off.
4. Going to the race track with my dad. He would buy me a hot dog and a ice cream and tell me not to tell my mother how much he spent ( I thought it was a big secret.....little did I know at the time....mothers know all)
5. Playing one of the orpans in Orphan Annie - I swear I thought I was going to be famous one day.
6. Playing Ringette for the first time and telling all my friends about it at school ( I thought I was "cool")
7. Hanging out with my mom at her beauty salon. I always got to dig into her stash of lollipops she had for all the kids.
8. Going shopping with my mother ALOT!!! (yes I'm now addicted and yes Olivia has now shopped more than many teens - that one will come back to bite me in the ass)
9. Having sleepovers at my house with all my girlfriends. We would stay up all night long talking about "boys" and then get up and cook breakfast in the mornings.
10. Learning French when I was 3 and 4 from a neighbour. I can remember going over to their house and only speaking to them in French. I remember it but CANNOT for the life of me speak french now. My mother tells me that I would come home and just break out into french. I guess kids are little sponges. I remember loving that I knew another language.
O.K, my turn to tag 3 people. Connie , Carolyn , and Mary-Mia
