Retroblogging 1980: June 27, 1980

June 27, 1980

Today I went to school.
At school we had a talent show and I was in it.

When I came home I practiced my piano.
Next Friday is the fourth of July our country's birthday.

Maybe tomorrow our tent will be in the store. Today is sunny.

Today for lunch we had sandwiches and crackers and juice then I washed the dishes there was a little so it was easy. Today I worked with mom that was my time with mom I have it allmost every day.

Mom was a teacher in Virginia when she and Dad met. After he finished up in the Navy, they moved West to Utah and settled down. Eventually I came along, but Mom was still, and is still, a teacher ... so thus we had little lessons, projects, and quizzes throughout the summer while we were little.

Who is not mentioned very often here is my youngest brother J. He's around, but not being quite 2 yet, he couldn't "play" or interact so much ... and I was the self-absorbed eldest, only daughter --- and what little brother can compete with the excitement of a talent show and a new tent?!
