This is dad at work. He spends about 7 hours a day on the phone. Then he stays another 3-6+ hours to get the work done he couldn't because he was on the phone. Dad said he has been dreaming of high school. He has been thinking about football practice, teachers, track, etc., and it is just like yesterday. He said it hit him REALLY hard that he graduated 40 years ago in June!
As he said, "Forty YEARS.......seems like just last week. Everything is still vivid and clear in my mind, like high school was yesterday. I can't believe it has been 40 years..........."
Me. I didn't love high school. I don't think about it at all except to be glad I don't have to step over strung out bodies in the parking lot, or watch my alcoholic band director march across the field. {Not a pretty sight} Or be there when the principal committed suicide. Great high school memories I know!! That is why I don't think about it. I remember back to a house full of little children, and the absolute JOY of every day!! THAT seems like yesterday!
