WHAT MADE ME .....ME.

ON THIS SATURDAY......5TH OF NOVEMBER 2022....I HAVE DECIDED I T IS TIME TO WRITE SOME OF MY LIFE EXPERIENCES.......THESE PEOPLE ARE WHERE I BEGAN.

MY FATHER WAS BORN IN PRESCOTT, AZ. WHEN HE GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL HE WENT TO DENVER WHERE HIS TWO BIG SISTERS WERE.  DAD WAS FROM A FAMILY OF 8.....4 BOYS AND 4 GIRLS......HE WAS NUMBER 3 IN THE FAMILY.   HE WENT TO WORK FOR THE "BELL TELEPHONE CO".....AS A LINEMAN.  SHORTLY AFTER HE WAS MADE FOREMAN OF HIS CREW.   THEY WERE PUTTING IN TELEPHONE LINE DOWN TO THE FOUR CORNERS AREA......WHICH MEANT A LOT OF MOVING.....BUT THAT IS HOW HE ENDED UP IN MOM'S AREA.

MOM WAS A SENIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL.  SHE WAS A MUSITION......SHE AND HER 4 BROTHERS HAD A BAND.......MOM WAS FROM A FAMILY OF 6.....4 BOYS AND 2 GIRLS....SHE WAS NUMBER 4  SHE WAS BORN IN CARTHAGE, MO....THIS IS WHERE HER MOTHER AND THE FIRST FOUR KIDS WERE CONVERTED TO THE LDS CHURCH......MY GRANDPA JOINED LATER ANDF BECAME A BISHOP.....THEY MOVED TO COLORADO....GRANDPAS FATHER WAS THERE,.

DADDY LIKED TO DANCE AND SO THE TWO MET.  .....WHEN MOM GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL SHE WENT TO LA TO VISIT HER SISTERS FAMILY.....I GUESS THEY MISSED EACH OTHER AND HE ASK HER TO MARRY HIM AND THATS HOW IT ALL BEGAN.....

I remember that once upon a time......Labor Day meant school would start soon.....now days school starts a week or two before Labor Day in some areas!...It was new shoes.....and a Big Chief tablet.....a box of new crayons and a new pencil with an eraser.....no back packs?  I always liked school and had lots of friends.....I don't remember  Labor Day being a day we celebrated.....
