Perfectly Windy Sky

Monday, Dec. 16, 1991 I’m sorta tired of talking about Christmas. Everything is so hectic this year. Money is tight and everything is in such a frazzle. Only 4 more days of school and we are outta here for 2 weeks! Thank God!  I have to go see my Dad, though! I don’t look forward to the…

Friday, Dec. 13, 1991 Actually, all I want for Christmas is happiness and health. Of course, I’d love a car, but I’d settle for the happy, healthy stuff. I think I’m going to Mississippi for a few days. I’ll hate that, but I’ll get over it. I hope you have a really nice holiday. Heaux! Heaux! Heaux! Merry Christmas!

Thursday, Dec. 12, 1991 I haven’t done my Christmas shopping yet. I like shopping for gifts, but just not during this time of the year. Everyone, including me, waits until the last minute to rush out and get stuff for everything. I haven’t even gotten a tree yet. That has to be my favorite part of Christmas.…

Wednesday, Dec. 11, 1991 When I was a child, Christmas was more fun. I got more presents and there was Santa Claus. My mom never told me there was no Santa, but I knew. Gifts were much cheaper then. Of course, I didn’t buy many then. It seemed like such a big deal then, and now it…

Tuesday, Dec. 10, 1991 We usually get our tree around the second week in December at the cheapest place we can find. I usually decorate it and take it down. My mom doesn’t like messing with it. It has lots of lights and tons of icicles. I like to sit and watch the lights with the…

Monday, Dec. 9, 1991 I ran outside, and there it sat…an empty driveway. But, as I looked more closely, there was a piece of paper on the ground. It said "Why don’t you try down the street."  So, I walked calmly down my driway, to my street. I rounded the corner carefully, keeping my eyes all squinty. As I opened…

Friday, Dec. 6, 1991 The thing that makes me happy is just the season. I love to decorate the tree, wrap the presents, and seeing everyone’s face when they open them. Money and attention also make me happy. The thought of graduation makes me very happy! I want to move to Florida and go to college…

Thursday, Dec. 5, 1991 My dream vacation would be going to California and seeing all the sights. Everything, from the wine vineyards to Hollywood Blvd. I have always had a fascination with California. I plan to move there sometime after graduation. I just like the whole celebrity atmosphere. But, a week in the heart of Cali is my…

Wednesday, Dec. 4, 1991 The worst vacation I’ve ever had was when me, my mom and Heather went to Percy Quinn State Park in McComb. We all slept in a two-man tent, and we woke up with dew dripping from the tent. We got up and went out in a canoe. My mom dropped her fishing…

Tuesday, Dec. 3, 1991 The best vacation I’ve ever had was when my dad, uncle Mike, Carl, and I went to the edge of Georgia and camped in Cloudland Canyon National Park. We walked on mountains and watched people hang-gliding. I went rappelling off the side of a 90ft. cliff. I was scared, but it was a…
