Don’t forget the 6 feet of snow before you got home to chop wood and carry water. Then you could begin your 6 hours of homework, in the cold and dark.
On your hands while carrying your three brothers while holding your breath.
Uphill walking downstairs, in a blizzard, barefoot, with one candle for heat and illumination, dragging a buick without wheels and the parking brake on, while my father beat us because we didn’t hunt for dinner that day. And, we were happy!
You had a candle?! We had to blink our eyes really fast for heat!
The hills have all washed away, sir.
