During this Stay at Home time .. during this Pandemic .. during this when everything is upside down time .. my sister has been sending me postcards.
On the back she will write a note sharing a childhood memory.

Some days you just want to go back to being a kid playing with the cats and playing Barbies with my sister.

Haircuts..
I did have my sister bring her favorite Barbie, Golden Dream Barbie, to my Barbie salon. Let me just say, Golden Dream Barbie did not look as lovely as she once did after I was done doing her hair.
Fast Forward..
My dear sweet Aunt Sally, she thought my sister and I could cut hair. I am really not sure what she was thinking. Two teenage girls, Belinda Carlisle playing on the radio and we are cutting my Aunt Sally's hair shorter and shorter.
♥
Shopping.. fun times at the mall. We loved visiting my Aunt Sharon and cousin Kris, who lived in the city. We would go to the mall shopping and pretend we had British or Southern accents.
How Silly!
♥
Hope you all are hanging in there!
Stay Safe and Take Care

ReplyDeleteI love this idea from your sister! How sweet and I love how you shared memories. Postcards are a great way to communicate and get a quick smile. Enjoy the weekend, I can not believe how quickly these days fly by! HUGS across the miles.
ReplyDeleteIs this one of the postcards from your sister? Did she draw it? It is very cool!
ReplyDeleteI think we all have time to remember when we were kids with nothing to worry about....except our hair and the latest music! The postcards are fun! How sweet your sister is! Take care!
ReplyDeleteI love that you get these postcards and memories from your sister! That's so funny about your hair salon and poor Aunt Sally!
ReplyDeleteThat's so fun! What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteSweet sweet sweet. Love your post. Your favorite things are fabulous too. It is fun to have memories of a great childhood. We all need to remember how good things were and how good they will hopefully be again. Patience is the name of the game and if we all stay positive and patient I think we can get to a great place again. Happy Friday.

The Barbie haircut reminds me of my girls' Barbies when they tried to cur their hair. When I was a kid, we had dolls that were made of rigid plastic and no movable parts and their hair were glued on so we couldn't comb them but they were cherished. A good memory at this time of isolation. Hooray for sisters.
ReplyDeleteHang in there, the post cards is a fun idea.
Hugs, Julia
Aww what a nice idea.
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteFun post, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh sending postcards is wonderful. I had some made of Bo, and I made them so wrong. Bo is so tiny on the card!!!! He looks like a stamp. It is kind of funny. Im using them to wonderful folks only
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thing to do. I haven't seen my sisters in weeks.
