Past days, tough days. Past days, people were living with more difficulties than now, they just lived to work getting far less amount of money. In addition, they didn't even have enough money to eat out a night. My grandmother, in her childhood, had to work as an adult cleaning the farm, where there were pigs, cocks and chickens, rabbits, horses and donkes, killing several animals to be able to eat something, cleaning up the house and looking after her brothers and sisters, as she was the oldest. Therefore, her family had to sew their own clothes, as they weren't able to get different clothes in a shop. I don't know where they got the fabrics to make their own t-shirts, dresses or pants but, becouse of that, my grandmother've got an spectacular sewing skill. In some photos, you can see they wore worn clothes, because they couldn't get clothes for every day and had to trate with care.
