Congratulations friends!

I just want to say congratulations to everyone who participated in this challenge whether you managed to do it every day,  or even once or twice.

Remembering yourself is a grand pursuit. Continuing this challenge with yourself is simple. Whenever you remember something of yourself, record it. Write it into a blog. Make a note to yourself on your computer. Anything. Just don't forget who you are and who you have been.

I welcome anyone to continue writing here if they desire. I'm honored that you've all taken part in this challenge, even tho I had to give it up due to my shoulder injury.

Today, I'm remembering being a child... playing with the little kitchen set with the plastic foods. I'm remembering this because my daughter has a kitchen set with plastic foods we just moved into her room from her grandmother's house today. And I see the little things she brings me to "eat" and I remember the ones I took to my grandpa when I was little. We had a Pizza Hut playset that had a pizza with a pan and a pizza cutter. I wish I had that still to give to her. It's the one thing that stands out in memory in the mess of dishes and foods we had...

The kitchen set I had then had a little tank you could put in the back and then you could use the water dispenser on the front of the fridge door to actually get a cup of water. Why don't the modern equivalents have something so simple but neat to a kid? I remember wanting to put kool-aid in it but not being allowed because it'd be "a mess". Man, if my kid's kitchen set did that... I'd let her put Kool-aid in it and we'd just run the tank through the wash afterwards. Heh.

Anyway... I'm still remembering. Always will be.
Congratulations for joining me, and out-doing me for a month! :)

Forever, your Self is all you have. Don't forget it.
