TAKE ME BACK TO...


8th grade...where my friend, Laura, and I are waiting for the bus. We would take the bus from Snowflake Jr. High to Taylor Elementary, then wait for the High School Bus to pick up the Jr. High kids and Elementary school kids. Yes, you read that right. All of us, Elementary, Jr. High, and High School, would ride on the bus...together! Back when the bus driver, Mr. Barnes, had permission to keep ALL kids in line. Back when there were no cell phones with scandalous pictures...back in the day. Wow!

So I made the comment that it was a "good thing I ditched the glasses."

Asa asks "Yeah, but who did you give them to?" lol...lol...

We are thankful it wasn't more severe.
