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.

Busy times and another new baby
"March 24, 1995: Went to Wilva's in a.m. and Pinochle Club at Marie H.'s in p.m. Won 1st prize. Rick and Mitch came in p.m. to Greta's. Madison Marie.
March 25, 1995: Busy day getting ready to stay in Lincoln.
March 26, 1995: Left about 7:45. Mary was at Columbus for a meeting of day care leaders, so we had to go that way to get her. Greta left Howard and me at Nancy's and then went to Dale's. Went to the church at 1:00 for Alicia's baptism -- then to Jayson's for a no-host dinner. I went home with Nancy -- Tom and Merilyn came and we had pizza and then played Rummi-Cube."
Grandma was so busy, she only had time to mention the name of the new baby but she gave more details in later days. Those will be coming up soon enough.
I am pretty sure I had a fun time in Columbus. I think this was the convention when someone fell in the pool quite accidentally, of course. The group I was associated with from Lincoln were a fun bunch of gals.
And here is a photo of Tom and Dale and myself, for no other reason that we are all mentioned in Grandma entries. Plus we are pretty cute -- all of us.
