K-Mart, revisited…. Difficult in aware-ness, stores following in footsteps of previous owners of merchandise, they dealt in all things, for all people that would eventually become K-Mart… and its kin. I suppose, and how many owners of some such stores would know that girlhood giggles would revive them and boyhood manners would build them… over 100 years old… in wanting just, then wanting more, and perhaps for a time, good for them! How about those previous owners of the general mercantile who bartered eggs for jars and furs for cloth? I go back in my mind because I was raised simply, and I know I could do without all of them, except for the general mercantile if without came… and I wonder where the teens of today would go, if… if… K-Mart, and its competition would disappear… it’s possible. I think of this because I know how to fix supper from a chicken just walking… and I wonder if anyone younger than I would know how…that chickens never did need a blue light special… |

I think of this because I know how to fix supper from a chicken just walking… and I wonder if anyone younger than I would know how…that chickens never did need a blue light special… Oh I love it, specially these lines, they remember me of the time I took the wrong one out in the evening dark and the rooster was laughing his head of in the morning, because he had ducked himself and so I took his mom instead, thinking the 'big' one was the rooster Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

reinforces the fact that businesses can go belly up at anytime, too much drama in the world today. I guess I'll have to learn how to make a chicken. |

(big hugggsssssss) Yes, I too have heard about the heavy lay-offs from K-Mart going under and how Wal-Mart is buying out most of the locations! I can't stand Wal-Mart and therefore I too think I am going to make home-cooked meals when I grow up like those in pastoral lifestyles do! (sigh) This is well-said, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karilea, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!
