What memory do you cherish from your childhood which at the time was the most mundane thing ever?

Asked by Jellie (6492points) September 27th, 2011

I’ll explain with an example.

When I was younger, I’d come back from school, quickly change out of my uniform and run to play outdoors. I would refuse to come back in till it was dark. One of the things I remember so well is going up on to the roof of my house and there I’d pick up my dog in one arm and climb up onto this 10 foot cemented water tank we had and just sit there staring out into nothing. He would often snuggle between my body and arm and just sit there with me. Sometimes he’d whine and get bored, other times he’d rub up against me to get me to rub his chest. I just remember enjoying things like that. I could spend hours like that. It was so ordinary at the time and something I took for granted. I miss that feeling now.

Any similar stories or memories?
