      Grandpa was a retired police officer and my siblings tell me that he cou l d at times be a little grouchy, because he worked hard and didn't wan t t o be disturbed (or have his programs be interrupted) when all the gra ndki ds came over. However, since I looked so much like him, I believ e I was s lightly favored of him. I was always welcomed to his lap from a n early ag e, and it became my favorite resting place as he watched his s hows unti l I was too old for such behaviors to be socially acceptable. A s I grew o lder, I loved to explore my Great Aunt's bedroom (she had th e most beauti ful dressing table with pretty perfumes!) and play in the " toy/family roo m" (converted garage).
