Writing it down

Today is my day off from work, so I should start writing on my legacy project. Started thinking about my childhood yesterday and made myself uncomfortable. Started thinking about Valentines in grade school - like Charlie Brown - I wanted to get Valentines; but, I didn't think anyone would give me any. I was so surprised to find that my classmates put Valentines in my box! So many things I didn't know when I went to school - like the alphabet. Mom figured they would teach me what I needed to know at school - that wasn't her job. Was that just her or was that the way mothers were in the 50s?
