“Ho…HUM…PICTURES…”
Some “PHOTOS” tell the story…BORING…
When looking for a PHOTO and saw these older PHOTOS…had to just let the whole wide world see these and give their opinion …these photos have spots on…almost too damaged to even use.
As… I remember back…these PHOTOS were taken for College. Evidently they wanted photos of the students attending back in the 1950’s – – and I just hated having my picture taken…just could not see where a picture of me would let you know – – WHO…I was and what I was like or even what I wanted to do in LIFE, then.
After having long hair for a long time…and with working and going to school – – just did not have the time to be spending lots of my VALUABLE TIME… fixing a mop of hair – every day! So…I just stood in front of a mirror and using a razor blade…started grabbing a handful of hair and sliding the blade across – – using my free hand…combing my fingers through the hair and cutting off more and more hair…till it was really nice and short…or at least …that is what I thought?
Take note of those ear-rings that I have on. When I was at work …one day…the girl sitting next to me…had these ear-rings on. I do not WHO the girl is or was at that time, but she spied the ear-rings that I was wearing that day – she liked them and ask me if she could try them on.
The ear-rings that I was wearing that day…belonged to my MOTHER…they were DIAMOND HORSE SHOE ear-rings and very valuable…and I should not have been wearing, but there I was and flattered… that someone noticed and I did let this telephone OPERATOR, next to me…try these ear-rings on. BIG MISTAKE…we were busy and she let me try her ear-rings on…and we did continued to be so busy…I did not even get a good look at WHO she was…someone I never noticed before.
Her “BREAK TIME” came …and without even saying a word to me… very quietly she did step away with my MOTHER”S ear-rings on…and then… when it was time for me to take a BREAK – – well … where was she??? I looked for the DIAMOND ear-rings…looking at everybody as well as I could…without disturbing the whole office …but evidently this gal…took advantage of me …and left that day with MY MOTHER’s EAR-RINGS – – so…I did learn an expensive LESSON…that day.
Sure hope that young people will learn a VALUABLE LESSON at my expense…do not share expensive and personal property…especially when it does not belong to you!

First of all, you look seriously GORGEOUS in these photos… Awwwwww
Secondly, did your co-worker leave that day and never come back to work??? I mean, or did she come into work the next day with a story of where they went?? I’m curious… what nerve!
Anyway, I love you Grammy!
I was very NEW on the job…DID NOT even know what this girl or woman looked like… could only looked side ways at the person next to you… your face had to be watching and ready to punch into an incoming call… and I sure did not want a supervisor coming over and telling me that I was NOT minding my business… and in our office only and or at least a hundred women…just no way to track her down
..
I was just a big dumb dumb NUT.
