School Story: |
|
Always remember the days we all would go to the store by George Peabody and buy jaw breakers before school and get in trouble with Miss Simmons (2nd grade teacher) Remembering when we would have to do the ringworm/lice test and see some kids with a hose on their head with the hair saved off. Having cookouts at my house My mom being a girl scout leader and we would have the Boy Scouts over and telling scary stories.Sandy Ray lived by a sanataruim so we really told sacary stories and sometimes think we would see people in white coats coming up my yard. Riding our bikes to Stockard for drill team practice so early and then stop by Page Drug Store to buy vanilla cokes. I do remember going to the Military Ball my Sr year with Steve Johnson wow that was cool to see Sunset as that is where I was suppose to go had I not moved and pouted ever since. We both had a good time he was my BF in 7th grade!! at Peabody. I also looked like bucky beaver in elementary school, I had 8 teeth removed when I had braces in the 8th grade and the really most embarrssing the kids called me metal mouth what a blow. I wore Victor Poes letter sweater in Jr H one day and put my had in his pocket and gag a nail with blood on was there well didn't wear it anymore!! When I did get my braces removed in the 10th grade, my biology teacher made an annoucement for everyone to parade around my desk and look to see that my braces were off, someone told him that I said no one noticed. that really stunk too goodness. But a fun thing when we were Srs. Kimball, Sunset,SOC and Adamson all got together at Kiest Park and looked for Herbie the ghost well we girls never found him but the guys had fun. Then as Srs we had won the KLIF spirit party with Ron Chapman. We also boycotted the lunchroom as someone found hair in their food boy was Mr. Durett mad he made an announcement and was so mad at us |
