I haven't checked in here for a couple of days because I have been running like CRAZEEEEEEE.<BR/><BR/>But I'm back now, things should settle down.<BR/><BR/>I may have discovered a fairly shocking string of childhood amnesia, though. I'm hoping it's not a repressed memory.<BR/><BR/>when called upon to talk about childhood memories of my brother (he turned 50 this week) I realized I have NO MEMORY OF THE MAN AT ALL.<BR/><BR/>There were eight of us in eleven years (wait'll Gingham Mountain, book #3 in the Lassoed in Texas series-that my family when I was a kid).<BR/>I have quite a few memories of hordes of little children, I suppose one of them was this particular brothers but, oops, nothing stood out unique to him.<BR/><BR/>I think I may have ignored him most of my life.<BR/><BR/>I regret that now. :) Sorry bro.Mary Connealyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09598386111251769803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411570645486866541.post-49512286693494818552008-08-09T18:46:00.000-05:002008-08-09T18:46:00.000-05:00I would love to enter the contest for Calico Canyo...I would love to enter the contest for Calico Canyon.
