I remember as a kid when we had our own school lockers in the hallway of our school. You had to remember the combination to get into the locker and get your school supplies. I would keep my books and a coat in my locker and that was about it. I was jealous of some of my friends lockers because they had pictures of their girlfriends and other cool stuff.
I'm not sure what kind of lockers the kids have today. Back then, we had medal lockers that were lined up against the wall in the main hallway of the school. There were also lockers in the gym, but those lockers were mainly used by the kids who joined the sports teams.
The memories I have about lockers are mostly good. I do remember this one time when the principal decided he had to open up and check every students locker. I guess he had a suspicion that one of the students had some sort of drugs in their locker. As for me, all I ever had was school supplies and a coat in my locker. I guess I must have been one of the ordinary boring students.

School Supply
My mom retired from teaching after 35 years. She enjoyed her time off for a little while, but soon was trying to figure out what to do every day. After working full time for so long, she quickly became bored with all of her free time. She decided that she needed to find something to focus all of her new found energy on. She had the great idea of starting a school supply store that was creative and affordable for all of her friends who were still teaching. She set up t1 internet to allow her to reorder supplies for the store, and also teachers can create accounts and place orders for specific supplies that they need. Her store is really close to the cluster of schools where she used to teach. She has been getting a lot of business and most of her customers are teachers who she used to teach with. I am so glad that she has something fun to do with her time now and that she is able to keep up with so many of her friends.
