go get the saw

My mom took out the rocking chair out of our apartment because I kept on sticking my head in between the rails and getting stuck.

Oh Brother.... Sister?

My sister and I had this Charlie Brown ice cream maker where you had to put ice in the middle of this closed tin and then pour flavored milk on the outside of it for it to freeze. We never could wait and ended up drinking the worst milkshakes ever all the time.

Personal Roller Coaster

On Friday nights, I'd fill a laundry basket with extra blankets and leave it at the top of the stairs so I could keep up with my ritual of riding down the steps as fast as possible on Saturday mornings.

Sweet dreams

I once fell asleep while I was hiding in a clothing rack at the mall. This lady woke me up by poking me with a hanger that had a teal track suit on it and told me that I was drooling on the merchandise.

I am the wanderer

Whenever my mom took me out with her, I always had to wear one of those child leashes because I was known to wander off. She later took the leash off because she was embarrassed of me crawling around and barking like a dog.

Move out of my way, time for bed!

My favorite thing to do in the winter was to stick my comforter in the dryer for a few minutes and run to my bed asap to fall asleep in a warm laundry hug.

Troy Towers Pool

The kids around my neighborhood and I took it upon ourselves to make the big fountain in front of the luxurious condo building our swimming pool.
