Fishing?
As soon as hubby gets me a spot cleaned out and kills that snake he says is as big as a fence post, I'm going to start fishing. I think I'll use a cane pole like Mama did.
Happy Birthday Baby Sister
Today is my sister's birthday. I was not quite nine and Mama was twenty five when she was born. Mama was much older at twenty five when she had Freda than I was when I had my daughter at that age. Mama was sick before, during, and for quite a while after this last baby was born. I remember she mostly ate only toast and jelly. Our OKC Grandma came to stay with us while Mama was in the hospital and stayed long enough to help Daddy move into a different house before they brought Freda home. We always rented. Speaking of rent houses...we looked at a really pretty house on Sevier Street while I was still in grade school. It had a big picture window and enough bedrooms that we would not have to share. Daddy said we could not get it because the rent was $100.00 a month. I do not remember what should have been the memorable event of bringing a baby sister home from the hospital. I do remember Grandma staying a little while and asking me to take a dish back to a neighbor at the end o
too cute! laughing about the snake, though. :)

ReplyDeleteOh, I Love to fish...but I like an ultralight and lures...though some days I do like a zebco and worms or crickets...just depends on the mood I am in.
ReplyDeleteI used to fish all the time. I haven't in many years. If I lived near the water, I'd probably fish evryday. Thank you for visiting and the cheers for my daughter. Smiles to you, Susie
