Prompt 17

"What did your grandfathers do for a living?  Did your grandmothers work too?"

On my mother's side:
- Grandpa Tom owns his own semi-truck and drives it for Wal-Mart.  He's been doing that for a while, since I can remember anyway.
- Grandma Judy has been selling fabric from her van for a while.  Maybe since I was in middle school.

On my father's side:
- Grandpa Billy Joe was been working with engineering departments for the government for a long, long time.
- Grandma Barbra died in '95, and from what I can understand did not have employment after she was married and had kids.  Though she was part of the Army during the early 50s, gaining the corporal rank, and doing secretarial work.

Prompt 9

"What games did you play in your house or neighborhood?"

In Chelsea I played in the woods so much!  With Jonathan we played "Tool Time" and he was Tim the Tool Man Taylor and I was Heidi.  We also played "Lion King," and jungle, and just a lot of other fun things.

In Columbiana I rode my bike a lot, and walked around town the Rainer and Robert.  Those two were a hoot!

Also the "shoot the arrow in the sky then run away and hope you don't die" was one of my favorites to play with Wesley and Josh.

Me and my sisters had a lot of fun on the tree swings on Center Street.

Prompt 4

"Did you wish you had more sisters or brothers?  Why or why not?"

No, I was pretty happy with being the oldest of three girls.  I thought we were pretty special.  Maybe at some points I wished that we were closer in age together, but dispute being 3 and half years apart each we seemed to get along pretty well....

... You know, except for the whole "too cool teenager--won't play with little sisters anymore" stage.  Which was about ages 13 to 16.  But then my relationship with my sister Ashley started to become better, with Madison in tow.
