I copied these from FB....cute little chippies
Ahhhh, it's Friday afternoon and I have 3 days off thanks to Labor Day. I sincerely hope all of you have a paid day off as well.
I had a nice massage, and then came home and watched tennis and caught up on reading everyone's blog. Well, not everyone ~ just the ones I follow that I haven't read in a few days. And I ran across this post from "The Chubby Chatterbox" which brought back this memory:
I was probably 6 years old and found a box that was sitting near the trash which I grabbed and took to my room. I probably spent a couple of hours fashioning it into a book back that I could carry my books to school in. I put on a handle and used tape to make a larger opening so my books would fit. After I was done, I proudly showed my creation to my Mom. Who looked at me with absolute horror, and exclaimed: You can't take that to school!! I didn't really understand then, and watched sadly as she threw out my hard work....which I had made from an empty Kotex box.
Love, 365
Stephen is a master of many arts, not the least of which is his story-telling.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but I bet he never tried to make a book bag out of a Kotex box......just saying.
DeleteOMG! I misread your original post and thought the story was Stephen's. Sorry.
