I remember a good safe childhood and yes I remember there not being a lot to eat and I used to worry some about that. But still it was the best time of my life....But if Mamma and Daddy were still here and not sick...This would definately beat then..I am never leaving this place again...Sister--Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10376197705851886291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23055161.post-85137422713572691122014-05-08T18:37:37.200-07:002014-05-08T18:37:37.200-07:00Larry said growing up they lived in several places...Larry said growing up they lived in several places where they had to sit things around when it rained to catch the water dripping. At least our little gray house was dry. After the house caught on fire, i was afraid of storms (just right after now a lot of years after) and Daddy would get up and hang a big quilt on the window if it stormed.<br /><br />Greta was trying to hula hoop. I remember us wanting one and he made us a hula hoop out of black pipe, He whittled a stob of wood and fitted it into both holes making the loop. It worked really well.

Haha,,, during a pause in the rain I pushed the trunk I have on the porch and put a heavy flat bowl over the pipe on the roof which did stick up about an inch...that was good news so the only water that got in was what fell straight in....then I thought even tho the bowl was heavy it might blow off in hard winds so I threw the old wet outside rug over it...The more it rains the heavier it will get So Betty unless the rug 14"X 16" gets so heavy it crashes the roof in I am set....and my house is all ready put back together....be happy....as Robert said we are comfortable here....Sister--Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10376197705851886291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23055161.post-30281518922935804212014-05-08T17:22:21.566-07:002014-05-08T17:22:21.566-07:00And it is making me feel bad about teasing you.
