Grand Avenue by Mike Thompson for April 15, 2024

My sister and I quickly learned to NEVER utter the word “bored” within earshot of our parents, or suddenly, we would have a new task, or series of tasks, to cure that!

It’s only been 5 minutes!!

And that is why duct tape was invented.

1. go outside, 2. dig a hole, 3. fill the hole back up; repeat.

You’re bored because you’re being boring.

Or a good mute button at least.

Too bad that grandma won’t live and let live.

Please don’t imagine you and all the other kids were any different. For generations, parents complained about their children watching too much TV. Being glued to the boob tube.

I miss seeing and hearing children playing outside.
