I remember when I was pulled over for an expired registration and when the cop asked me if I had any outstanding warrants etc. etc. I said, “not that I know of.” And then he spent 20 minutes in his car and came back and said with obvious surprise & disappointment, “You have no record at all!”3

She laughs when she says it so its all good 😁
I try to remind myself that I have so many great memories.. seeing that little girls face for the very first time was magic. 💜
This thread was created because I was thinking on how I have some pretty awful memories and thought to myself.. you also have some pretty awesome ones too... think on those 🙂4 -

My grandparents held season tickets to the Los Angeles Dodgers for decades, right behind home plate a few rows up. I remember every time my family visited, my brother and sister would be looking forward to visiting Disneyland, while I wanted to head to the ballpark for a game, eat salted peanuts and chuck the shells on the ground, learn how to cuss "properly" from my grandfather (to my mother's and grandmother's chagrin).5

I Remember how excited I used to get - to get the prize in the cereal box… my brother and I would throw down over who got to open the box 😂 damn I’d love to be a kid again.5

I remember having dreams when I was pregnant that my daughter was born with a full set of teeth. After I delivered her, the nurse was like "oh my God she has a tooth!" Turns out she was born with a calcium deposit on her gum, looked just like a tooth!4

I remember when I was a kid we stayed at my grandmas for I think about 6 months after my mum and dad divorced. My uncle Baz, mums youngest sibling still lived at home with grandma, he played Darts every Thursday night and he would bring a family sized caramello chocolate home and give to us 3 kids along with emptying out his pockets.. we were allowed to divide all the loose change he had 😁 I loved uncle Baz, he was the only sibling of my mums 10 brothers and sisters not married. He passed away 10 years later, a senseless death.. a simple hospital procedure went awry, he got septicemia and died... I still miss him 😔4

I remember being in Jerusalem on Easter in 1967, I was 6.
I remember very distinctly the smell of everything being cooked in olive oil.
I remember walking with mom down those narrow streets with stores on both sides, it looked just like in the movies.
I remember there were rules we were told to follow.
I remember going into all the places that Christians consider important.
I remember feeling claustrophobic inside the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, people being pushy.
I remember my mom grabbing me and holding my head against her as I heard the scream of a lamb.
It was traumatic.
I remember the feeling of all the eyes on me the whole time we were there.
I am thankful mom took me with her and I had that experience.

I remember when I was about 8 years old, I was at home by myself(grandparents lived 3 houses down) and was outside playing basketball. As I was doing my best 3pt attempts I had a man and 2 women walk over to me from the apartments across the street. They were talking to me and telling me how they needed a strong young man to help them move a couch inside of their unit. Me being the naive but always wanting to help kid I was, decided to go with them. They watched me move a couch around by myself and then said to come with them, they had something for me in their bedroom. As soon as the bedroom door shut, something told me to run or something really bad was about to happen. I busted through that door and felt like my feet never even touched the stairs on the way down. They chased me to the entrance of the apartment complex but thankfully gave up from there. Remember kids STRANGER DANGER 😅5

In my neighborhood they would’ve made a passing acquaintance with your parents first so you couldn’t call them strangers. And everyone would be like “those people? They would never do anything like that.”

I remember Mrs. Kern, my grandmother’s next door neighbor. She was a German immigrant like many people in that neighborhood. Bavarian I think. It was a mostly Catholic neighborhood so I’m assuming. Though the Lutherans were well represented too.
Anyway. Mrs. Kern. She looked a little like Tasha Tudor with her headscarf & skirts.
She had a wonderful raised bed garden that mixed beauty & function. And she planted flowers beyond the fence that separated the backyards from the LIRR track so even they were beautified.
She made her own soap in the yard from scraps of fat she’d saved up.
She made the worst chocolate chip cookies but we always took them gratefully because she made them with love.3 -
I remember culottes. If palazzo pants, capris, & knickerbockers all had a baby together it would be culottes.3

I was 5’7” in 6th grade.
I hated it.
There was only one boy in elementary school that was as tall as me.3 -
I remember staying at my Nana's for school holidays, she was terrified of snakes. She was a cleaner at a small school and it was well known she was scared. Nana came home one day and used the first and only swear word I ever heard from her.. some kids had left picture books on their desks with pics of snakes ... she had to use a broom handle to close them. Boy she was mad.. 😂3
