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.

Good times, bad times

"May 2, 1993: To church. Greta, Dane, Nancy and I ate at the Hitching Post at noon. Nancy and Dane headed home between 3:30 and 4:00.
May 3, 1993: Howard was asked to be an honorary pallbearer for Bill Hawkins. Ddn't go because of the steps at Methodist Church.
May 4, 1993: Helen and I Scrabbled in p.m. Irene is on the rampage -- very abusive -- uses rough language."

We really should have been keeping track of the number of times Nancy brought Dane up. What fun. The first kid does usually get the best deal, but he didn't get tooooo spoiled and the others don't complain (much), so it's all good.

The words "rampage" and "rough language" shouldn't go in the same sentence with Aunt Irene's name, but as I said in an earlier post, those things happen.

Oooo! Where did those bowls go? My birdie friends would like them. And check out Aunt Irene's necklace!

I don't think I ever knew about Aunt Irene being on a "rampage" or using "abusive language". Either I have very selective memories or Mom and Aunt Helen didn't think the "youngsters" needed to know this.
