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.

Found the book!
"June 30, 1992: Norris, Vicki and Ann N. visited here in p.m.
July 3, 1992: Nancy came at noon. We fixed food for tomorrow -- played Manipulation in evening.
July 4, 1992: Picnic at Dorothy Jo's. Those present: Norris, Vicki, Ann; Ramon and Linda; Myrtle, Gaylord, Lois, Mark and Jeff; Irene; Bernie, Carol, Kris and Ryan; Marvin, Betty Ann; Linda and Christopher; Gary A., Jennifer and Karen; Kevin and Mary; Betty Jo; Rick, Mary, Mitch; Greta and Lester; Helen and John; Nancy; Howard and I; Bob, Mary and Michelle. Lloyd in hospital for tests, an irregular heart beat."
Grandma had a new line in her book for each family unit so her list looks more impressive. But it was still a pretty good-sized bunch that year. And we just had our early 4th this last weekend. Wunnerful.
I have pictures of Christopher from this particular 4th, but I gave them to Linda a while ago. And of course, I don't know where the photos I kept are at the moment. This photo is of a different branch of the family tree and may or may not have been taken on the 4th but I simply love it, so I am posting it. I don't care if I've used it before or not. Love it! Love it!

ReplyDeleteJust ignore my earlier comment. It makes no sense now.
