I try to always do as Mother said "always treat others the way you wish to be treated" She only had an eighth grade educations but she was wiser than most college graduates. <BR/>PeaceLady Di Tnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13314994067842063387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386507.post-80206569535186564132008-01-21T17:59:00.000-08:002008-01-21T17:59:00.000-08:00Hi Lady Di,I very much liked the story and hope yo...Hi Lady Di,<BR/><BR/>I very much liked the story and hope you don’t have nightmares about fires. Man, oh man 3 fires! I have lived through a tornado and a flood, but I think the fire is worse than both of those put together. <BR/><BR/>I can always tell when someone comes from a humble background. They are always good hearted down to earth folks. They are not like the rich folks who steel from the underprivileged. So it sounds to me as if you earned your big heart and good nature.<BR/><BR/>Peace.Marcelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730088464674356217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386507.post-68288149262744087962008-01-21T15:13:00.000-08:002008-01-21T15:13:00.000-08:00Those old houses were fire traps and the wood was ...Those old houses were fire traps and the wood was like a well season piece of firewood and when a spark idgnited up they went. <BR/><BR/>I must make a correction it was the YWCA but I am sure you figured that one out or my parents would not have let me move. Lots of young girls stayed there and worked downtown and it was fun to meet all of them. The boys Y was right across the street at that time and I can remember several of them having conversations across the street with each other. <BR/><BR/>If you go back to the other post with my painting you will see the ty beanie baby that I carry with me. I put him up on my easel when I paint. He reminds me of the same chacter in The Lion King and his statement "It's in the past. Either learn from it or forget about it". <BR/><BR/>So life was hard but hopefully I learned from it and forgot the worst of it. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your kind words. <BR/>PeaceLady Di Tnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13314994067842063387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386507.post-22311805288137603812008-01-21T08:13:00.000-08:002008-01-21T08:13:00.000-08:00PS.

Once would be very difficult to deal with but three times... there are no words to describe it.<BR/><BR/>I did enjoy the other parts of your story. The photo is precious and your imaging is terrific. I felt like I was right there alongside you when you were describing things. You have been blessed with a writing talent. <BR/><BR/>Our bedrooms weren't heated either. We had a coal heater in the kitchen and a small oil stove in the living room. I remember waking up in the morning and writing on the beautiful frost etchings on our windows.<BR/><BR/>Take care, my friend. I do hope you will write more about your childhood. <BR/><BR/>Love and blessings,<BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386507.post-24650568471574529282008-01-21T07:28:00.000-08:002008-01-21T07:28:00.000-08:00Unimaginable!

Am glad you have pictures from other family members but am sorry you were not able to keep some of the many things that you loved.Changes in the windhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06942797186537814864noreply@blogger.com
