Traditionalist and the Boomer. The lost episodes. My Dad worked dawn to dark. Mum stayed home cooking, cleaning, watching soaps, telling me to be quiet then popped her little helpers. School for me was her freedom later. Mum didn’t know how to drive! Saturday was go to OT work with dad…looked forward to that. Sunday sit back and watch one of three channels Game of the Week after morning’s yard work. I didn’t do well in church…I asked too many questions so after a few visits and being declared a strange child we didn’t go anymore. So technically I was raised by women being around more of them than any men. It’s why I like…no LOVE… to shop, share feelings, and talk!xD
Many of my childhood memories of my father involved us doing things together, be it fixing a bicycle or going to the day-old bread store. Unfortunately, he died my freshman year, so I don’t have any memories of him as an adult.
