Hi.
My name is Sis... And I would like to speak to you and tell you a little bit about myself.
I was born in a little town of Parkland, Pennsylvania.
And as I was growing up we didn't have all the facilities, modern facilities as they have in homes today.
I- we used to have to walk across the park and pump our water to drink.
And to bathe.
And to wash our clothes.
And also we had to carry the heat_ the coal from the outside, to feed the pot belly stove.
There isn't many people today that really know what a pot belly stove is.
But that was our way of heating the house.
We cooked on a kerosene stove and we had this, metal thing that we used to sit on top of the burner, which was our oven.
And that's how we did our baking.
And I remember the old refrigerator... In the house had a motor on top of it.
And I think if anybody had to remove that from that house it must have taken about ten men to walk out the door with that thing, it was so huge and so thick with insulation.
I_ it was a small town I came from.
And I, was involved with our church.
I am from a Presbyterian, religious sect.
And I sang in the church choir as a grew older.
I became a Sunday School teacher and when I moved from Parkland, I had moved up to a town up towards Walgrove Pennsylvania.
And I had met my husband and I had three children.
I have two sons, and I have a daughter.
And I have four grandchildren.
I have three granddaughters and a new grandson.
Finally God blessed me with a grandson.
And... Then from there I have moved over here to New Jersey.
About thirty-two years ago.
And I gave birth to my daughter and she is, from New Jersey.
And she has Samantha and Breanna.
And Samantha's in her terrible teens of seventeen.
She's got a young fellow that she likes very much.
And she will be graduating next year from high school.
And her field that she wants to go in- into college I believe will be social work.
For psychology and counseling troubled teenagers.
Which I am very proud of.
And, Breanna, she's just like her grandmom, the tomboy of the family.
Haha.
Melanie, she is kinda quiet.
And, well Andrew all he can do is cry and screech and smile and blow bubbles at you now because he's still small.
