My Grandpa Tooley gave me the nicknames that I remember. I was born towards the end of the big radio show period. My grandpa used to call me "Snooks." It was after a character on the "Bickersons" radio show, Baby Snooks. He called me that even after I was married. If he called me "Paula," it was usually because I was in trouble. He was usually the only one who used nicknames. I liked them.
The other nickname I remember was "Doodle-bug." That was what they called the little "pill" bugs that we found in the garden. If you touched them, they would curl up into a ball.
