Oh, what lovely flowers!
I don’t see these lawn chairs anymore. The front porches and yards are tiny where I am. I just have plastic chairs for the back. There’s a park behind my house so I can’t see into very many back yards. Mostly, there are foreigners and renters in my neighborhood that work for the tech companies here. It is a very different world. |

The clocks
   Remember screwing with the flip clock to set it?  And the school clock!

Isn’t it amazing to see that school clock!!
The kitchen pics are a lot like what we had at one point, but my mom liked yellow. I remember being so amazed at the ice coming through the door. It was between 1975 to 1978 when we got it. The mushrooms on all the kitchen stuff! I think we had a yellow and green ceramic mushroom canister that looked cookie-jar-ish. I still have the silver bicentennial bell. I have no clue why my mom saved it. She pitched darn near everything else. |

When I met my husband he had ^^^ that kitchen table, except the top was grey.
My son in law wants a red one. |

My babysitter’s mom had velvet wallpaper, red and black wrought iron dining room chairs, and under the dining room table was an oval red shag area rug with long fringe. I remember this because they panicked whenever it was almost time for their mother to come home. They swept the fringe to perfection and kept the dog away from it because the front door was by the dining room table, and their mother insisted the fringe had to be perfect.
Oh, and a giant painting (or print of a painting) of Jesus with the palms showing, and Jesus tall glass candles in the dining room. No statues allowed per their religion because that could be misunderstood as praying to a false god or something (we had a giant statue of a giraffe in our house that I used to sit on—I don’t think they ever saw it though). Man, that was one strange house. I was afraid of their basement. |

I had a neighbor that had white long shag carpet. Caught a glimpse of it once; we were only allowed in the basement playing with pop guns with the paper rolls. Afa I know, no one was allowed to walk on this shag carpet.
My grandmother had a gruesome 4’! crucifix hanging over her bed. Always scared the crap out of me. She had burlap curtains too! __________________ "Doubt is like dye. Once it spreads into the fabric of excuses you've woven, you'll never get rid of the stain." Jodi Picoult |

I remember shag carpets......there was a period of time when they put the long shag carpets on walls and ceilings. Had a friend who's single mom did that. They had a den with shag carpet on the walls.
Remember the carpeted vans? I forget what the called them but they were party houses on wheels. __________________ Nammu …Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
