Write about your first computer. Not mine but my dad’s. It was an Apple III, look it up. It was a business computer that was before the Mac. My dad got it for an exorbitant amount of money. It had certain business functions that he liked. Pre-excel and word. He built a huge desk thatContinue reading “Old school”

These are the days
Only one more entry for January. Looking ahead, February looks more lively so stay tuned. January 28 9th grade: A space shuttle blew up today. It had the first civilian on it. She would have came to our school to talk. It was so scary, her kids were watch[ing] her. This still gives me chillsContinue reading “These are the days”
My So Called Life
Recapping last week, someone was sick and someone died. All caught up. January 19 8th Grade: Mom and I went to [see grandparents]. Grandma looks good and Granpa looked sad. Again with misspelling “Grandpa”. This was my nana’s birthday, my grandfather’s was a week or so later so it made sense to see them. MyContinue reading “My So Called Life”
Catching up on life
Getting back to my earlier post where I review my old diaries. TLDR? My mom was having a rough week when I was in 5th grade and I was having a rough week in 8th grade. January 12 9th grade: My old guidance counselor died, I feel so bad. He was a really nice guyContinue reading “Catching up on life”
A Year in the Life
I have had some old diaries laying around and I’ve decided to journal them this year. These are from 5th to 9th grades, I’m hiding personal details and names to protect the innocent (not that anything crazy happened nor do I think anyone will read this). I seem to fall off after a week orContinue reading “A Year in the Life”
Toy box
As a kid we had a toy box, I don’t remember where it came from or when we got it. I’m guessing it was there before me. It had weird padded wallpaper around it; not wallpaper but something like that. It was wood and the top opened and had wood slots on the top toContinue reading “Toy box”
What I Did on My Summer Vacation
I was 11 going into 7th grade. Young, yes but I started kindergarten at 4 so that would place me in 7th grade at 11. Seventh grade was the start of middle school, a large middle school where I would get lost in the crowd.My “What I Did During Summer Vacation” story was probably notContinue reading “What I Did on My Summer Vacation”
Always Something There to Remind Me
My father died (suddenly) 40 years ago today. There is a lot to unpack about this but I’ll do some of that later. I found something I wrote soon after he died; it’s not dated but my guess is that it was within a year of his death. I am missing the last page butContinue reading “Always Something There to Remind Me”
East Coast/Midwest Coast
When I have down time I will write little memories in my notes app. I found a few and am adding to my blog. Many of these were done while at the hairdresser waiting for the color to do its thing. 1st in the series”Notes from the hair chair” When I was 6 I movedContinue reading “East Coast/Midwest Coast”
