4 sweet-talkers :
The General Store in my area is about 5 blocks from my home. It is, unfortunately in a horrible area. I used to stop there for coffee in the morning. The LAST time I stopped, there was butcher paper over the glass which encased the candy. Someone came in for coffee, candy and CASH during the night. Just ruined the place. I guess the times aren't like they used to be, anywhere. Have a great week! And... I wish I were more Christlike than I am... Thanks for the reminder.
Oh good, another Partridge Family lunch box. My masters degree is relatively useless, but I am glad I have it. If nothing else, I can tell my husband he has to call me master.
I'm embarrassed that I only had brown paper bags for my lunches. Although, I ate school lunch until high school.
Brown bags were the fashion when I went to school. It was what we all had for years. I was geared up to start back to Uni when I was 29 but it didn't happen, so let those snorts of pride out! Good for you!. Having just watched a movie about second chances, I regret not doing it.
