Beth,

You'd think the folks who ran that shop would fill it with all the kind of stuff that can handle a bit of rough treatment. Anything less doesn't make much sense to me. Ugh.

This was another well-written portion of your saga and I enjoyed!

    Thank you Robyn, I appreciate the review and comments. I agree. I think that teacher had a short fuse and couldn't get past the fact that my son upset him. I only know what Don told us. More may have gone on that I know.

I have never been to any of the Disney Lands. My father was against them and so is my husband. Oh well, I guess I am just not supposed to go. LOL I enjoyed these memoirs.

The next morning, the rest of us went to the Magic Kingdom of Disney World. (The following morning...)

    Thank you Barbara, I really appreciate the review and comments. Evan didn't think he'd find Disney interesting. We went mainly for the kids but we really enjoyed it as well.

Life is made up of moments, and you've captured some lovely moments here in the family trip to Disney World. Details, such as this one, make all the difference:
"...you bought a wide brimmed hat that made you look like Indiana Jones."
What a pleasure to share these memories with you.

I'm so glad your vacation was a big success. I know it must've been painful for Carol, but by the sounds of it the breakup might've been a good thing with Tommy's drinking and excessive force. Don sounds like he's becoming quite the Cassanova. It's a shame he got on the teacher's bad side though. Your chapter is well-written, very interesting. I look forward to reading more.

    Thank you so much for the review and comments. Yes my kids have gotten to that age when hearts get broken. I never went through a heartbreak of the kind they had but I've been sad for them many times. I'm so glad you still finding this interestings

I think I mentioned this before, but regardless, what a nice way to put memories of family times together. Thanks for sharing these family memories of good and not so good times. I'm sure later on, the grandkids will appreciate the stories. Keep writing and thanks again for sharing.

You sure do have a good memory unless you had been keeping a diary all those years. I enjoyed the trip to Disney World with you all and seeing things through your eyes.

    Thank you Rebecca. I'm glad you're enjoying this. I didn't keep a diary then. I did keep a journal a few in the nineties. It don't know why those earlier years are so etched in my memory.

Smiles Beth
From you telling your day at Disney World, I felt I was you.
It was fun and as the day ends I was so tired, I had to take a break, but smile you had your coffee to give you a boost. Thank you Beth, for sharing your day with your family at Disney World

Dear Beth, this chapter reflects both good and bad adventures at Disneyland. Good and bad relationships that your children we're going through, and worst of all seeing that your husband was in pain so much of the time. Were the Children aware or care about it?

    Thank you Suzanna, That is the way life is. It it is full of the good and the bad, and it all seems to be stuffed into my memory. Sometimes it is the bad things that challenge us and make us who we are. I appreciate your comments.

Oh, the trip to Disney sounds so wonderful -- definitely a basketful of memories to carry with you always with everything that went on!! ;) And poor Don.... hate that something he really looked forward to took such a 'bad turn'... ugh. Thanx for sharing your heart with us Beth -- love that we get to relive it with along with you! ;) Yvette

August as we had planned, we took Carol to Olando --> August, as we had planned, we took Carol to Orlando

I love Disney World and enjoyed your account of your family trip there. My first visit to the park was in 1984. Your children have kept you busy and it is interesting to read about their schools and relationships. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
