I want to go back to the time when... |
||
Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-mo" | Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "do over!" | |
"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest. | Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "Monopoly." | |
Catching the fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening. | No shopping trip was complete, unless a new toy was brought home. | |
It wasn't odd to have two or three "best" friends. | Getting a foot of snow was a dream come true. | |
The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was cooties. | It was magic when dad would "remove" his thumb. | |
It was unbelievable that dodge ball wasn't an Olympic event. | Having a weapon in school, meant being caught with a slingshot. | |
Nobody was prettier than Mom. | Being old, referred to anyone over 20. | |
It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people" rides at the amusement park. | The net on a tennis court was the perfect height to play volleyball and rules didn't matter. | |
Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better. | Abilities were discovered because of a"double-dog-dare." | |
Ice cream was considered a basic food group. | Water balloons were the ultimate weapon. | |
"Oly-oly-oxen-free" made perfect sense. | War was a card game. | |
Saturday morning cartoons weren't 30-minute ads for action figures. | Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles. | |
The worst embarrassment was being picked last for a team. | Taking drugs meant orange-flavored chewable aspirin. | |
Baseball cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle. | Older siblings were the worst tormentors, but also the fiercest protectors. | |
