Yeah, I remember those silly hair rollers! heh heh They came in blue, too. Dunno why, but when I hear Ol' Blue Eyes sing "It Was A Very Good Year", I think of the blue rollers. Probably cuz of the lyrics: "blue-blooded..." and "with all that perfumed hair". I know, seems stupid. Also reminds me of the ubiquitous "beauty parlors" back then.

I'm glad that the doctors says she's O.K. Since she's still not out of the woods, I just wanted to let you know I'm still sending you and your family good thoughts and good vibes. I learned in life that every broken heart heals. It just takes time...little by little. Take care, my friend.

Ha ha ha. We had Schwinn bikes and a banana seat bike. Sooooo comfortable, the banana seat was! We also used to do the playing card thing to make it sound like a motorcycle. Also, we put streamers on the handle bars for extra showing off. And for added fun (for us, at least) we used to ring the bells on our handlebars every chance we got! Speaking of the clackers, we used to call them "go-go balls". One kid on the block had a pogo stick but none of us were able to manage more than two hops, unfortunately.

Yes, thank goodness you and your family were there to help your beloved sister. I echo all of Ninelives' sentiments and wanted to say that your mother was wise to see this as a cry for help. Very wise. I also send you and your family good thoughts.

Well, the other day (does this count lol!), in the subway, there was a musician performing some Bob Marley songs, accompanying himself on the guitar. He was pretty good. A passenger actually took his earbuds off to listen. I'm pretty sure the musician felt good about that.
