Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?
Well it’s day 10, and I think I may halve run out of things to say to start these blog posts off. Maybe something will come to tomorrow or the next day.
Since I’ve had a few concussion in my time I had to give mum a call to find out what I was attached to. There were two, one I do remember and the other one not so much.
I’ll start off with the one I don’t remember and that was a blanket, Mum told me that I was fond of this blanket and would take it everywhere with me. This sounds like something I would do. As for what happened to, mum said that it got so tattered that she throw it out.
The second thing I was attached to was my Gumby toy. For those that dont know, Gumby was a stop motion clay animation kids show about Gumby and his sidekick Pokey, an orange horse.
I had both toys, and I thought they were the best. They were bendy as well, though they were not childproof. I played with them until they they lost their bend. As for what became of them, I’m pretty sure mum threw Gumby out.
Pokey’s fate was much different. I used to keep him over at my grandmother’s place so I could play with him when I stayed over. After she passed away, her house was actioned off was me with the some of the things my grandmother owned. That included my toys, I just hope Pokey made someone happy.
Time for me to sign off, it’s getting late and I need my beauty sleep.
