I love this story, @mineopoly. I actually hadn't had a chance to read it until now. Congratulations on winning this week's creative nonfiction contest. Well deserved!
I always enjoy stories that cross time and generations. Isn't it amazing how acutely you remember that day? Sorry to hear about the mold allergy, though! At least you can be the "canary in the coal mine" for those in your life. If you have an allergic attack, they will know they need to find and clean out the mold.
This is exactly right. I know which places not to go into and will try to keep a clean sunny environment.
There are so many fiction and non-fiction stories to read in the inkwell community that it's hard to keep up.
Thank you @jayna for encouraging me to write. If think carefully I can remember a lot of feelings and details until 1976. Those memories mixed with old pictures and audio recordings and stories from my parents I then I have a story. On holidays my dad would leave the record button on his portable tape player. I listened to hours of family gatherings when I was bored.
There is a lot more I could say, but in these short stories my goal is to pick out one main point and try to paint the picture. Again, thanks. The inkwell provides a good opportunity for me to write and remember and heal. In the end I may have pieces of my life story and someone can put them together. !LUV
