Your welcome Ladyhawke.
and Happy Mother's Day to you and to bluicecorvette, and to your Mothers!
I read something recently and I thought it was special enough to share with you beautiful ladies -

"You don't have to be anyone's mother to be loved."

Please know that you are.

Hay MAy, E_mail me for info on Monson.

Poor picked-on novocaine. These folks be brutes, non? ;-)

dont start rumors mike1968, what info or proof do you have? by 1968 i think methods were getting more civilized

Is there any one who can actually testify to abuse or torture in the 50's?

Wouldn't electric in these places be a huge fire risk?

They'd probably blame a homeless person or arson.

I dislike those to be referred to as "they".. lol

<smirks>

So, Yaggy, where can we see yours?

Excellent article. Here is a photo I took in the mid 90s.

(good thing I was here.. lols)

it's definately enlightening to learn what it is you're looking at... thanks for the information.

you stole my photo! i'm gonna get mad! waah!

Bluicecorvette! Woman! Sit down with me on these steps and take a breather!!!
It's actually very peaceful here!
It always amazes me that as bad as my life might be going, (yah, there are alot of people that seem to have it so much easier than me), but I also never have to look very far to find someone who has been through so much more than I.
It puts things in a little bit better perspective for me.
I myself, have been through breast cancer. A co-worker said to me once that they didn't know how I pulled through, and that they didn't think they could do it if they were in my shoes.
I told them that "Sometimes, you just do what you have to do."
When life can press on us hard, it really can make us stronger.
Family and friends help get us though.
Thank you for sharing all of the above.
I can't even BEGIN to imagine the kind of pain that you've been through.
I can see though that you are a strong and caring woman who thinks of others before she thinks of herself.
I'm hoping that things have gotten better for you.
Thank you so much for sharing it, and yes, you are with people that care. : )
You're in my thoughts. Once again, a picture has brought together two people's pain, but in doing so it has also brought a kind of comfort in sharing what they've been through.
You take care~ Love,Sue
Thank you Rapunzel's Wish for the kind and heartfelt words. Happy Mother's Day to you : )

No wonder no one's allowed on the island - they'd catch a terminal case of poison ivy! (That's what's growing thru the window here!)
