Like the others, I miss not having the adult responsibility of bills & jobs. I miss so many things. I miss paper dolls, dolls and mud pies. I miss Vacation Bible School, Bible drills, Putting on our Sunday best and going to church as a family. I miss singing along with the 45's of Ricky Nelson and Johnny Cash on the record player. I miss Mighty Mouse on TV.  I miss going to the variety store on Saturday's. I miss getting a shiny nickle each day for a treat at the school store. I miss seeing my daddy reading his Bible so he could teach Sunday School at church. I miss hitting the baseball and riding my bicycle with my younger brother. I miss watching syb dress up, put on lipstick, getting ready for a date. I miss my mother standing at the stove canning vegetables from our garden. I miss looking out the front door and seeing my daddy on the green John Deere tractor. I miss hearing my older brother sing in church. I miss helping my mother hang the laundry on the clothesline. I miss the hot dinner rolls my Grandmother used to make. I miss the dresses my Aunt Ethel made for syb and I. Most of all, I miss hearing my daddy pray.

I miss not knowing my grandparents to well and only got to know them a short while and my grandfather's words to me before he passed away, grandone, don't envy others that have more than you and don't look down on others that have less than you and till this day remember those words and my grandmother she passed away when I was 9 and remember going over to her house on Sunday mornings before Church for her homemade blueberry muffins, strawberry reserves, I miss what memories that I did have of them. I miss my dad and the times at his company his company picnic to Conneaut Lake Amusement Park, I miss the home movies we did of the 8mm projector. I miss our dog Laddie he was part shepard/collie mix, and cats Fuzzy and Brisky.

redbee, the American Legion brought back memories to me.  My step dad was a member and every friday we would go for the fish fry.  They had the best Jack Salmon, and fries and cole slaw.  I can sit here and still remember the smell when you would walk in of that fish fryin', such good memories.

 

Catfish and lots of Hush Puppies

The things I miss are too many to list but with the way this country is going I found myself praying the other night to wake up in 1964.  Seriously.
