1973 - I was a very young computer operator. The bosses went on vacation, I made a mistake with the computer and messed up the company's entire inventory records. Took me 4 days to put Humpty Dumpty back together again but I finally did it.

1975

1975 I was 10 years old, very proud of hitting double figures and probably wearing hideous things like purple polyster pants with flower patches and a red ribbed sweater. Bleh, 70s fashions!

1983?

1966: I wouldn't be born for another 7 years so I'll talk about my parents.

They hadn't met yet. Mom turned 16 and found her first job in 1966.

My father was 19 and a sophomore at University.

1945?

1950 - my parents met at the box factory they both worked at and married within the year. 38 years later by chance I would go to work for the same company but in an entirely different capacity. My mother said she hoped I was making more than the 45 cents an hour she was paid.

1957

1957: My mother was 7 years old and sent to live with her grandparents. It was a traumatic experience for her and probably scarred her for life. She still talks about being taken down to the ancestral home and just being dumped there with all these strangers.

My father's youngest sister was born in 1957.

1939?
