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.

Matter settled?
Since this is of such a burning importance, I will not even use anything new from Grandma's journal today. I truly want to get to the bottom of the Valentine's Day Mystery.
Above you see a copy of what Grandma wrote. Nancy says she is the one that took Chinese food to Grandma on Valentine's Day -- that it was their 'thing'. She recently wondered aloud if I had mistyped and should have put her name instead of mine. I acknowledge that that certainly is a possibility, but as it turns out, not on this occasion. I do not remember taking Chinese food to Grandma on Valentine's Day in 2002 so I am not prepared to argue that my memory is better than Nancy's.
Grandma called me Nancy sometimes, I do not know if she ever called Nancy by my name.
Grandma wrote just my name and then later added Mitch and Anna. I do not know if that means she meant to put Nancy but some time later when she saw just my name, she assumed I would have brought the kids and she added their names. I simply do not know.
So, I do not know that I have helped with the mystery, or just made it more complicated.
