[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 216415, member: 1944"] This is a great thread, I love reading it. I remember when JFK was shot, and I was 5, and my parents were freaking out. He was so loved, who would kill him.. and I remember the funeral was all that was on like forever. When you are five, hours is like forever. I remember being in Cleveland, with my Dad when the Beatles were there, and it was like to me a riot. I spent most of my free time with my Dad at dirt tracks on the weekends, and he was so proud of me in my first "powderpuff" in a 440 barracuda. 1969, I think. I finished 11th, out of 22 and he never ever quit talking aBOUT IT!!! My parents are both gone, as well as a sister and brother. I have 2 boys, 29 and 33, both college graduates with good careers, one in military one in business. And I have four beautiful grandchildren. 2 boys and two girls. I have a dog named tikibelle, and a husband. And lots of good memories at UPS since 1984, and made lots of friends. Right now I enjoy gardening, remodeling, and reading, and shopping on the internet. But, my love was always horses and I cant believe I dont have one anymore. When I was young like 12, I had a horse, well 3 to be exact at different times. And I won trophies and ribbons at most shows. And not in the expensive tack and equitation classses, in the races, boot, pick up and egg. I tried to always make sure whatever my kids did I supported them, even if it was something I didnt understand..... like football, or tennis, I was there. I had an arabian, who I could jump on with nothing, and she would go wherever I told her, and it just flowed. I didnt need a saddle, bridle nothing. So for any of you who have kids, always show interest. I know my parents loved me, but they didnt know how important what I did when I was young was to me. I have only one pic of me when I was young on my horse, taken by an aunt. I have a million of my kids, to let them know how important they were. So I guess my biggest piece of advice to people with young children, is camera, camera, camera. I enjoy art shows, and garage sales, and vegging at home. I dont enjoy going out nearly as much as I used to, a good time to me is "staying home" [/QUOTE]
