Those truly were the best of times!!!

i loved the smell of mimeograph printed paper

Yes I remember it well Saturday morning pictures then Friday and Saturday night disco judo and then karate and football rugby all in the evening and still I think we were spired loved it

Grown up in 70s Iam so Happy I was the best time

Me and my husband grew up in a very large family being baby boomers. We were not spoiled by today’s standards. If we wanted money we went out and got a job by ourselves,without our parents. I remember me and my best friend getting on a bus to go to the mall to get jobs, and we both did. I was saving money to go to Beauty School my parents didn’t have the money, I paid for it myself. With my first paycheck I went to the bank to open a savings account all by myself. I did go to Beauty College and had a long time career. My Parents were so proud of me. It was a great time to be young, went out dancing all the time, had lots of fun times. 💖

Still a far more fun, innocent and thought provoking as well as making us more inventive and imaginative, learning lessons no one does today, they weren’t soft and nasty little disrespectful, lazy and entitled, we were happy and carefree with inventive, imaginative minds and played on wonderful park toys that don’t exist, like locomotives and air force planes and jets etc etc. they made everything to safe and yet they still get injured from ignorance and lack of experience, I could write a book, was it perfect, oh no, but it was heaven lost and kids turned into marshmallows that are entitled, lazy, whiny, disrespectful, with terrible attitudes towards adults, all created by the government, emasculating boys and such, removing actually living and exploring and such and creating lifelong couch potatoes with demand for things unearned, unmerited and spoiled rotten with no regard for life quite often and no respect for anyone while demanding everything.
