I'm so old I Remember when:

[Ponypoor]

I loved playing volleyball!

I was never and am not sporty. But I loved dance, my parents put me and my sister I. Dance class for years and even as an adult I danced. Now that was fun! I think they should give a credit for dance class rather than gym in school! Or horse riding!

I loved ..dancing. Never took dance lessons. Just danced like the hippie girl that I was to the music back in the 70's.

Was so furious one night when I had to bring my grandmother to emergency. The twit Nurses calling her by her first name - except one older Nurse who called her Mrs …. I made a point of thanking her and telling the other Nurses that when I trained to be a Nurse we called everyone Ms, Mrs Mr or sire or ma’am. We had to wear our hair up it couldn’t touch the collar of our inform which was always white, and we had to wear our hats (ok glad the hats are gone - hated when they fell into the bed pans ), we could wear a dress or slacks but it had to be white.

Each section’s uniforms were a separate colour - blue for housekeeping, yellow for dietary, maintenance guys wore dark blue. Drs wore scrubs or lab coats over street clothes.

One knew who they were approaching to ask a question, these days the nurses housekeeping dietary - they all wear uniforms willy-nilly all sorts of colours and patters you don’t know who’s who!

It ticks me off when someone calls me by my
First name and I don’t know them. And I will call them out on that! Gosh I am an old fart!

That's OK honey..I'm an old fart too.

I loved riding horses! Ha..seems like I enjoyed a lot of different things. I used to hunt and fish too. I'll see if I can find a photo of me at Lake Powell.

Lucky. I rented a horse back in the 70's, then married..his parents had horses. Loved riding bareback in the foothills.
