TV’s took 5 min. to warm up.

The picture show cost a dime.

Stockings were two pieces with a line down the back.

The TV’s pictures were only black and white.

Gas was a quarter a gallon.

Fast food hamburgers were 9 cents.

A bee hive was a hair fashion statement.

A Tent was a dress.

When we didn’t have television.

The only way to communicate was by letter.

When radio’s were as big as a TV.

You asked the operator to connect you ,

 because no one had a number.

You wanted your hair done you did it yourself.

You had to go outside to get to the bathroom.

You carried water in a pail from a well.

When we had real ice boxes.

You drank water from a dipper.

You washed from a wash pan.

And did the dishes in a dish pan.

You took a bath in a wash tub.

Milk was brought to your door in a glass container.

The milkbox that sat outside your door

You used the phone by turning the handle two shorts and a long.

We had party lines on the telephones.

You went to town you had to walk.

You went to school every grade was in the same room.

Doctors made house calls.

You wanted new clothes you made them yourself.

You wanted to stay warm or cook you had to chop wood for the fire.

You used the sun to dry your hair

And now you use a hair dryer.

When you could use the house phone

 and now you use the cell phone.

Some of us remember these ways.

 These are what some people call the good old days…….

 Bet you know more old ways. What do you think?
