Looking Backwards

[vettechick99]

I look backward to a childhood where we left home at 8am Saturday morning and didn't see the inside of our home again until nightime. I'm sad that my children will never experience that same sense of freedom and neighborhood camaradarie.

That was me 15 years ago, but I know for a fact kids still do it in the neighborhood I grew up in. So it is still possible, you just need to find that right city and neighborhood. There is still good in this country!

Are you kidding, I would love to go back....but just to visit. I loved the 80's. I still have a bunch of cassettes to. DH rolls his eyes everytime I mention them. In fact, I spent part of my day downloading songs from Napster onto my new MP3 player. And tonight when the kids are in bed, I am going to enter all of my cassettes into Napster and see which ones I can download

I love the 80's, I was very much a 'club girl'! I used to love going out with a foot-high, foot-wide head of bleach blonde-hair, black spandex and a fake id! I was a 'wild child' when I was in high school and I can remember coming home in the wee hours of the morning just as my alarm was going off. I'd turn around and get dressed to go to school looking pretty rough. Every night of the week was a different club. Honestly, sometimes I wonder how I survived those days.
