Well, I am finally on my way. I have been promising myself for over a year that I would write about my life in a type of diary form and hopefully leaving a record for my kids and grandkids to understand a little about how my life was. My plan will be to write everyday a little about something that happened in my life. We will see how successful I will be!
Why did I title my blog One Small Degree. One degree in water temperature can means a whole world of difference. If water is at 211 degrees it is very hot. But you add One Small Degree and water begins to create steam which can runs huge machines that can climb or remove mountains. So, giving a little more of oneself can create wonderful things to happen.
First memory- I was probably about five years old and my mother was shopping in Fitchburg near the center of Main Street on Oliver Street near the fire station. Somehow, I lost my mother in the department store. So what should I do? I decided to go find my father. He was at work (Fitchburg Plumbing Supply Company) and it was at least a half mile down Main Street. Off I go to find Dad. I had to cross about five side streets as I walked down Main Street. After reaching Fitchburg Plumbing Supply my problem was I was on the opposite side of Main Street. I remember that I started to cry and a nice lady helped me across the street. I opened the door and quickly went up the stairs to the second floor to find my father in his office. My mother must have been frantic and my next memory is watching out the second floor window as a Police Cruiser came down Main Street with my Mother. We were finally reunited and I know that my Mother was happy to see me. She didn't even yell at me!
