Things happen in a strange sequence making My life almost impos.sible to believe, let alone live. As long as things go along on a fairly normal keel I'm relatively calm, Well, about as calm as one can be with a three-year terror in the house every day of the week. Just diverting from my original topic for a moment, I'd . like to explain what life is like With my young son. It Is explaining to the new neighbors why our little boy turns up at their door banging for something to eat. It is putting into language a three-year old can understand why' he shouldn't get a glass of water on his own from the sink behind the counter in the lunch counter at the five-to-a-dime store. It is trying to keep a semblance of poise while he screams at the top of his lungs that it isn't safe to leave him unattended in the shopping cart M at the supermarket. For the past couple of weeks though, things have been just frantic. It was our eldest son that broke his arm. He said it was 180 lbs. of solid brick that hit him at football practice but it wouldn't have mattered to me if he'd injured it Iifting a paperweight. The fact of the matter was, it was his right arm and he's in the first year of high school - a deadly combination. The doctor said he would be out of action for a month. Of course, my son charged that I was only concerned that he would not be able to continue with the painting NOW RE-OPENING INA'S FLOWERS MUMS & POTTED PLANTS For All Occasions 123 Erie St. 482.9937 - Clinton project he had begun in the 4Osteirs of our aged home. I Then he had another disastrous accident. His brand new perma-pressed trousers became stained with a great glob of ink. Try as we would that ink would not budge, "I won't wear them," he insisted. "You'll have to," I cried, "I won't," he repeated. He made good his word. With some money he had saved from his painting efforts prior to the broken arm, our eldest bought himself a new pair of trousers. Just one day and one wearing later he decided to launder the blue denim jeans - in bleach! You guessed it. Hanging beside the ink-stained pants are a pair of streaky white and blue denim jeans. About that moment our daughter hobbled into the house, big tears welling out of her eyes. Her left leg was dragging and one look told me it was badly hurt. "What happened this time," asked the harrassed X-ray technician in the emergency ward at the hospital, Shirley Keller „„„ "It wasA soccer game," I told him, hardly able to meet his eyes. "Does this sort of thing happen often in your family?" he queried over his glasses. Suspecting that he intended to report our family to the Children's Aid I told him, "Certainly not. We've just had a streak of bad luck," "Iirromm," he mused the way all medical people do. It was a ruptured blood vessel, we learned, We also discovered how injured legs make it pOssible to practice music scales, wash dishes and prepare Sunday School lessons, yet make it perfectly practical to play hide-and-seek at the neighbours, go out for dinner and babysit at 25 cents an hour, There were other things, too, like the paperhangers who forgot to match the paper, the milkman who left a quart of homo and two cents for 90 cents and the sneak thief who made off with all of my milk money the next day. But I'm optimistic now. When my toast fell this morning it was butter side up.
