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.

Uncle Raymond still visiting
"August 12, 1992: Went to WELCA meeting.
August 13, 1992: To John and Helen's for dinner. Greta, Lester, Dorothy and Raymond there, too. Ate at 11:00 so Greta could be there. I stayed for afternoon and Helen and I Scrabbled.
August 14, 1992: Raymond and I visited Irene -- she seemd to be feeling good."
In a hurry, otherwise I would go back and see if I've yakked much about Uncle Raymond on here previously. I will just say that he recently had his 99th birthday. So glad that some of the Nebraskans made it out to visit him last year. I think it was just last year anyway.
I know I've used this photo before, but it is such a great one of Uncle Raymond (well, and others in the photo, too). It is how I remember him best, smiling and having fun. I hope he is doing the same thing on his 100th birthday.
My apologies for not being a little more wordy with these posts. Waiting for life to settle down a teensy bit or else for me to find a quieter time and place to do these posts where I can think a bit more creatively.
