I've been waiting for the right inspiration to blog and it hasn't been coming too easily. It seems everytime I go to blog I just end up sounding whinny...and I HATE whinny!!!! But this morning when I read Kandi's email about girls growing up in the 70's....I said OH, MY GOD! That was me to a T. I think I have mentioned before I was in the Laura Ingles Wilder fan club and have a autographed picture to prove it. I also had a picture of Leif Garrett on the back of my bedroom door. Shut up! (as Beth would so eliquently say) These are the other things I now remember....purple banana seat bike, metal roller skates, crush on Gopher, moon boots (loved them), Holly Hobbie pants, poncho, Simon, metal swing set that came off the ground, definitely feathered hair, magic 8 ball fortune telling, shrinky-dinks and syrofoam cup barbie hats (man did they smell), many free animal posters, favorite book by Judy Blume (Are you there God, it's me Margaret, but what about Bonney Bell lip gloss and leg warmers.......

No, that is Sonny. The horse I had to lease my last year of 4-H because Miss's feet were too bad to ride her in the fair. Nuggett was much better than Chloe will ever be. People are starting to ask if I really want puppies from her. She is naughty.
PS stay tuned for more bringing out the oldies memories....I'm on a roll.
