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.

Little bit of everything going on

"May 5, 1993: John had a cataract removed this morning. Marina was to have her heart surgery. Don Orvis came with bill for the shingling. It was $272 instead of the $400 he gave as an estimate!!! Greta came and helped Howard plant some more garden.
May 9, 1993: Mother's Day. Greta, Howard and I to Lincoln. Howard, Nancy and I at Tom's for brunch. In p.m. Bill's, Dale's, Mary's and Greta came for visiting and lunch. Kids gave me a cordless phone -- combination birthday and Mother's Day -- also received cash."

No report of Aunt Marina's surgery, but I seem to remember it all went well. Otherwise, everything here is plenty straight forward.

Since the celebration was for Mothers' Day, here are five moms. Well, not all were moms at the time, but you get my drift.
