<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 256299, member: 23"]Mine looked like Lady from Lady & the Tramp and I kept hoping I'd figure out how to repair. her. I got her the Christmas I was five. Much of my childhood was spent being fostered out because my mother couldn't work and take care of me, so the few things I have left from then are emotionally attached to my psyche. I got to live at home from the time I was 12 and that was an adventure. My mother and step-dad lived for flea markets. In between defaulting on rent, they opened second hand stores. My step-dad was a character. Someone would come in looking for a rug and he'd sell them a chair. The art of haggling didn't rub off on me. I'm a terrible salesperson. He never learned to read and write so I was his bookkeeper. He could do figures in his head faster than I could do them on paper, though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
