His idea of preparing me for life, and as it turned out for having a grandson like you, was his bringing home from the shipyard jokes. I traded with him by bringing home jokes from high school. <BR/><BR/>I couldn't repeat some of his jokes because my mother had trained me not to say certain words. I still wouldn't say one of them even if I had a mouthful of it.<BR/><BR/>My training continued in my being married to a military sergeant for 25 years. So, I understand your jokes and laugh out loud. <BR/><BR/>Your other grandmother wore army boots.<BR/><BR/>Love, GrandmaJoan Bencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03177520549243959613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5230805976330474873.post-2555522294008662702008-11-12T08:14:00.000-08:002008-11-12T08:14:00.000-08:00FYI, I'm starting to get more grossed out lately t...FYI, I'm starting to get more grossed out lately too. When we were at a rather "rustic" RV park on the road trip, we had to use the public facilities for showers. It was difficult to shower while not touching anything at all. And some kind person had left a bar of soap behind to share! Egads.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14982948048183498504noreply@blogger.com
