How to keep the kids amused....

Several years ago when my children were about the age of those in the video. My mother in law was watching them and their cousins. I came home from work and stopped to see if she was still sane after several days of having 4 kids. I walked in just as one of them came flying off the stair case on a nap mat and piled up on a bunch of pillows and whatever. I went off and scolded all of them. The incredulous looks got me even more pissed. Then one of them piped up and said. "But Grandma let's us". What The Heck? I looked at her and she said. "They're fine". I turned and walked out. I think I said something about her taking them to the hospital or something.

I must be old, less than .40 per.
Yep the cheapest I remember was thirty something cents. When it finally went up to around $.75 or so and it was big news everybody was reporting about could go as high as $1....I vocally said to many “it will NEVER go to a dollar, it’ll never happen” was I young and dumb or what? 😐😐🤔😏

Your not old.

When I was a kid mowing lawns I could buy a gallon of gas and two tootsie rolls for a quarter.

I mowed so many lawns I blew up the lawn mower and replaced it cash for 23$, the deluxe version with bigger wheels.

I mowed lawns for 1$

Right on.

Remember having to twist that damned crank in front of the engine to get it to turn over? Before electronic ignitions? Circa 1930. It was a real bitch in downpours.

This brings back a lot of memories of my triplets that will be 21 in 3 days. 2lbs-11.6oz, 3lbs 9.4oz, and 3lbs 4.9oz, born at 30 wks and 2 days. All over 6' and no long term health issues. Spent 5, 6, and 7 weeks in the NICU, last one came home on father's day. My wife went up during the day twice a day to nurse them and I would go up after working second shift. Seems like a long time ago.

That’s “The Good Stuff”, right there.
