Well it seems as though I missed throw back Thursday
again.  On Fridays I really enjoy looking
at the old photos that my friends share on Facebook.  I have a scanner but I haven’t quite gotten
the knack of messing with Photoshop.  I
don’t think I even have a Photoshop.
One of my very first memories in life was at our little
house where we lived when I was born.  I
don’t recall how old I was but I was potty trained and in panties.  My mom told me one day as I was heading out
to play, that if I went to the outhouse, not to let Bobby Jones go with
me.  I wondered why but didn’t ask.  I was an obedient child.
Later in life I thought about Bobby Jones for some reason
and this memory came back to me.  I told
my sister after my mother was dead and she told me that Mother had told her the
same thing but she wasn’t as obedient as I was.
When I was about ten or eleven, I was already maturing.  My first bra was a 32 A.  How fair was that to the world’s worst
tomboy?
My brother had sort of a friend who lived on the corner of
our block.  One day I was outside playing
when this friend of my brother’s asked me to come to his house as he had
something for my brother.  I went with
him innocently.  We went into the house
and back to a bedroom.
He told me if I would show him mine, he would show me
his.  I turned and ran out of that house
as fast as I possibly could.  I didn’t
tell anyone about this until adulthood. 
I confessed it to my brother who told me he wasn’t surprised.
These are traumatic childhood experiences that I remember.  I sometimes wonder if I have suppressed any
others.
My sister, me, Mother, Russ and Daddy.  Love Daddy's hair in this photo.  As you can see, I had none.
I was late in posting for TBT because our stupid computer system keeps shutting down.  What's with that?
