Kid Stuff

What kinds of things did you do when you were a kid? Here are the couple of things that I have been thinking about lately...

We used to stay out in the yard late on summer nights and play on the swings. We were loud and silly and it was very fun. We played a game that we called "Women From Mars". I don't even remember what the rules were or why we called it that, but my siblings and I and my cousin, Roni, would swing as high and hard as we could while singing at the top of our lungs.

Something else that we used to do when we were kids is that we would sleep in the living room and on the front porch during the summer. All of the kid's bedrooms were on the second level of the house and it was too hot to sleep there. I remember wishing for the smallest breeze to blow through the window, but it very rarely did.

I think that is part of the reason why I would rather be cold than hot.
After this long winter though, I wonder if that is still the case.
