I was one of those kids that slid under the radar and the school nurse until i was 13, then i recieved my first pair of glasses, early 70's, I got the 'works', irredesant lenses, rhinstones on the corner of the lense, and colored frames, then i was dubbed Jackie-John after Elton Jonh of course. Needless to say, i lost them on a fishing trip, 4 weeks later, looking over a culvert, i watched them float down stream, never to be seen again! It was bittersweet too! I loved them, but nomore Jackie-John. I love the flower power TOO!!!!<BR/><BR/> Hugs, <BR/>JackieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619910611535148385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37220856.post-80181697934493044752008-01-10T13:21:00.000-05:002008-01-10T13:21:00.000-05:00Awww man as I kid I always wanted to wear glasses!...Awww man as I kid I always wanted to wear glasses!

Thankfully, another little girl at my school thought they were really cool, so each morning when we got off of the school bus we would trade shoes. I wore her sneakers and she wore my orthopoedics! My Ma & Pa paid a lot of money for that kid to have good feet!<BR/>;-)<BR/>TDolls of Yorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05279328392090158500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37220856.post-26484628439917594352008-01-08T06:40:00.000-05:002008-01-08T06:40:00.000-05:00...I absolutely love your work!
