My friend from high-school, Suzanne, is going to stay all night with me tonight.  It will be fun to visit with someone from the same era.

I’ve been shocked at the generations since then who know nothing about the conditions of Americans who lived during WW2.  But in their defense, I know very little about WW1.  Just what I have read.

 I know that paregoric was legal (narcotic) because my great uncle fought in the war and told us that soldiers with bad teeth were given the drug to rub on their gums to ease the pain. Many came back addicted, and it was legal to buy over the counter.  That’s it.  That’s what I know.

I won’t be posting again until Monday.
