It was always difficult having to explain I was grounded to my friends when they came by the house. 😮💨

When I was grounded, my television privileges were taken away. That meant I'd miss when new episodes of my favorite shows aired!
The younger generations wouldn't understand the impact! With today's streaming and "on-demand" services, it's easy to watch shows when you want. In my youth, if you missed a show, it could be months (or longer) to catch the episode in a rerun!
I tried the "puppy dog" look, but my parents would never budge! Their response was usually, "you should have thought about that before you did what you did!" They were giving me more credit than I deserved...I rarely thought at all! 😅
A trip to the dentist was definitely stressful, but there was one thing to look forward to...the prize cabinet!
Our dentist kept a large cabinet full of toy rings for the little kids to pick through at the end of their visit. In the hundreds of choices, I could usually find one in my style! 😁
A visit to the dentist was always nerve-wracking! The pick they used looked so menacing, and when the dentist forced it in between my teeth... often getting it stuck there...the pain as they tried to pry it free was nearly unbearable! 😖
