Remember the tool sharpening truck? His loud bell, and how he would come around about once a week? We still have one in our neighbourhood but I only hear him about once a month. Why don't we do more if this? Isn't it so convenient? Why don't we bring back the milk man? I would probably say it's because everyone works now. There are no housewives home with the kids to receive said milk when it's delivered. I'm here! Deliver it to me! It would be so much easier than lugging 3 kids to the store...
I say, bring back the SERVICE in the service industry. People to pump your gas, bring you groceries and ice cream. General Repair men...not contractors. I know they still exist, but it's not the norm anymore.
Makes me a bit sad.
Have you ever felt like you were born in the wrong time? or felt like you must have lived in another time, in another life? ya...that's me. something about me cries for the 1940's and 50's when women were housewives, mothers and homemakers, and seduced their husbands with amazing home cooked food and fabulous skirts with just the right amount of crinoline sticking out. these are my adventures in my new fashioned old fashioned life.
