I tripped and fell down memory lane today.
I found a box full of my old journals. Each entry is like cracking open a window to the past.
Here is a different look at another May 20th of my past...
May 20, 1996 - About 2 3/4 inches of rain fell today. Didn't go out, except when I had to.
Cleaned a little, read a little, washed a little, cooked a little.
Played "TriBond" together.
Oldest Son read us "The Lumber Room" by Saki.
Made almond cookies.
Oldest Son has a rash that needs to be checked out.
Daughter got new contacts.
Youngest Son got a detention.
May 21, 1996 - Oldest Son has Pityrosis Rosea.
Daughter won her baseballgame.
Youngest Son had 20 million phone calls from girls.
Took mom rubberstamp shopping and out to lunch for Mother's Day. Meant to pay for her lunch, but totally forgot! Didn't realize this until I got back home. I'm such an idiot!
Did nothing tonight but read.

I've thought of doing that myself--highlighting an excerpt from a really old journal. I will one day when I'm not completely overwhelmed with my regular today life. ;)
Wow...you really did keep track of things. There were years in my life that I would not want to remember but I keep an old calendar of many doctor appointments which tells plenty! It is to remember what all God has done for us...we now have a much emptier calendar and so grateful for that!! Glad your life was more worth writing down...
