If My Grandma Had A Blog

My grandmother died in 2005. She did not own a computer. I think she could have mastered some computer skills, but she had plenty of interests and activities and friends to keep her engaged in the world. She wrote things down, not fictional stories but events of her life, both past and present. After she died, I was given the honor of keeping some of her writings. I thought starting a blog with them might be fun. I hope readers will find it enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by.

Fun anniversary

"June 6, 1992: Greta set out rest of flowers south of living room. I baked three kinds of cookies.
June 7, 1992: Our 56th anniversary -- just stayed home - toured the garden!!
June 8, 1991: Damp and foggy."

Love it. Can you imagine the conversation leading up to celebrating 56 years by touring the garden? I envision a giggle and a chuckle at the outrageous nature of it all. And then the next day -- damp and foggy. Like all the excitement and sunshine for the week was used up and there was nothing left over.

I don't know the occasion here, but I am guessing anniversary since both Grandma and Grandpa have flowers. Also do not know if I've used this photo before, but I couldn't help using it again. Those are the expressions I envision as being possible during that garden tour conversation.
