I just love sharing your life memories.

I have always wanted the type desk your husband made that slanted and a hinged top covering a storage space. I will try to find a photo and see if I can have one made here in Thailand. Your memory reminded me of what I've always wanted!

I loved that desk. You would think I could remember what happened to it, but that is one memory I don't have. Maybe we gave it to my son.
Thank you so much for the review and comments.

Looks like the SIXES have run out, sorry. This was another great read. I had one of those oil fires when I put oil in a "Dry Fry" pan...not meant to have too much or any oil in it. One little spag. wife was a[s] supervisor with the telephone company.

I enjoyed reading this. It flowed well and there was an astonishing touch of realism from the chip pan fire that was well-described.

Spelling issues:
I stuck my had>I stuck my hand
pealed the burnt skin away>I'm not sure, but I think this should be peeled
together, you > comma too much

Beth, This is a very nice chapter you have penned about remembering your life and your new house. You used very good descriptive words and the picture made me think of when I almost caught our house on fire due to trying to cook having MS. Please check out this one word: stuck my had in a pan
hand

I enjoyed reading and reviewing. love and blessings, Teri

I'm so impressed that you can remember the names of all your neighbors from so long ago. I can't remember any of those names from those early days. Hope you found a better church to fellowship in and can't wait to hear about how your first baby came. You were blessed to have no morning sickness. And how unreasonable to keep weight gain to 15 lbs during pregnancy! They don't have any such limits now.

In your notes:
"I am remembering my years with my diseased husband" (Do you mean "deceased?")

Thank you for the review and comments. I thought about changing those neighbors names but then I didn't because I don't think I say anything that would bother them. Thanks also for catching the spag. I definitely meant deceased.
