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.

Small world
July 5, 2002: Bought some groceries at Oberle's and then back to Lincoln. "Reclined" most of the afternoon.
July 6, 2002: Still tired. Dolores came in afternoon and we played Rummikub. Jean called while she was here.
July 7, 2002: Nancy came in time for dinner. She vacuumed and washed floors. Luayne came about 8:30 and stayed all night. She came from Alliance. She was installed as president of the state American Legion Auxiliary on June 29.
How ironic -- I am in contact with someone outside the office often for work business. She told me that she was retiring in a few months, partly to fulfill an obligation to an organization away from work. I remembered her previously mentioning the Auxiliary. Turns out she is currently the vice president and will be president when her term is up. I mentioned Luayne's name and this lady said she knew her quite well. It is a small world we live in.
Since Rummikub is so popular, I thought it only fair to have a photo to bring back the memories a bit.
