(And they, like yours, are great about filling in the details of our childhood, because my memory is sporadic at best.) I love the braided rug story. We had braided rugs, too, probably from Sears because that's where my parents shopped. It seemed my mom was always ordering something from the catalog.<BR/><BR/>I had a something's-under-the-bed phobia as a kid -- I was terrified of the witch in the Wizard of Oz. It was really, really long leap from the door of my bedroom to the bed, not letting my feet touch the floor.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09147413132595250490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8527778005327798454.post-34113874687591171362008-02-20T21:37:00.000-06:002008-02-20T21:37:00.000-06:00I don't remember.I don't remember.dAAvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10378341182741173178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8527778005327798454.post-13064473233219308122008-02-20T17:36:00.000-06:002008-02-20T17:36:00.000-06:00The hall light in his eyes...the word verification...The hall light in his eyes...the word verification...it's all about <I>you-know-who.</I><BR/><BR/>I just remembered that after my dad & I were in a bad car accident, I developed a fear of riding in traffic.

Mom and Dad wouldn't let us sleep with our doors closed so the light was in my eyes all night long.<BR/><BR/>And I would love it if you got rid of word verification.Scott Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361224878660334532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8527778005327798454.post-32998482274281472332008-02-20T17:09:00.000-06:002008-02-20T17:09:00.000-06:00I was a fairly fearless child, except for spiders....I was a fairly fearless child, except for spiders. I loved snakes, toads, frogs, lizards, mice, caterpillars, and all that stuff. I'd catch bees rather than run away from them. My mother kept a large bottle of Merthiolate in the medicine cabinet.<BR/>I suffered from "food weirdness." For example, my mom had to pick the little squiggly white part out of raw eggs before she cooked them, or I wouldn't eat breakfast. I also went through a phase where I wouldn't drink milk unless she poured it through a strainer.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11041374614464589328noreply@blogger.com
