   I was maybe 5. I fell off my bike and skinned my knee. I was bleeding, but my mom had company. She told me to go upstairs to the bathroom and wait and she’d be up in a minute.

   We-ell, we all know how long a mom’s minute can be…

   I decided to take care of the problem myself by putting a “band-aid” on my boo-boo. (at least that’s what my mom had always told me they were.) Then I pranced downstairs, all proud of my independent lil ole self.

   My mom was ABSOLUTLEY MORTIFIED to see me heading for company with a huge maxi-pad tied around my knee (this was back in the days when pads had those looooong extensions to hold them in the belt. Remember sanitary belts? All together now, “UGH!” It was also, like 1968, and our family was NOT emancipated enough to discuss feminine hygiene nor products related thereto.)

   Undaunted by her stunning look of terror I loudly drew attention to myself yelling (I always yelled), “LOOK MOMMY! I”M OK NOW. I PUT A BANAID ON IT ALL BY MYSELF!”

    Oh Groovy - what a hysterical story!

    Empress, as in Groovy’s story, these are feminine hygiene pads - kotex. They have an adhesive strip that is supposed to attach to the ladies underwear to hold it in place.

    Thanks to all of you for stopping by!

    When my kids first discovered minipads quite a few years ago, Princess plastered them all over her bed, on top of the fitted sheet. Just in case she peed in the bed. She was SO proud of her ingenuity!

    In my home, that kid would have been plugged full of tampons. I abhor the pad.

    I’m sorry, I know that’s repugnant of me to say. But, it’s true.
