Linda Chesman (Byard)
Here is my contribution to the message forum for 2012: It's early May now and beautiful in upstate New York. The leaves are already out - not exactly how it was when we were in high school, leaves were probably still a few weeks away.
Many of us are now collecting Social Security but there was a time when we got "allowances" from our parents.
Many of us are on Medicare and we may stand in line for flu shots. I remember standing in line for a polio shot at Troy High School. I thought it was very cool to be in the high school even for just a short period of time when I was actually attending School 14.
Occasionally I get a discount for being 65. When we were kids, we used to pay less to get into the movies if we were younger than 12. And so it goes....if you chance on this forum, do write, and let us know what is going on in your life.
Make sure I have your e-mail address. (LindaByard@gmail.com) In the event that our class does have an event, I'm sure you will want to know about it. Remember envelopes and stamps and all that? We don't seem to be using them too much these days.
Be well, give hugs, and eat your veggies. Linda
