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.

Making up new words
August 26, 1931 - Ray was home today so we washed. We worked on my dresses this afternoon. I went down town tonite with Florence. We saw Loretta, Helen and Esther. I had a real good time with Loretta.
August 27, 1931 - I ironed this morning while Mother sewed. We drove out to Dora's new home this afternoon. From there we went to Ola's. We stayed there for supper and Mother drove back into town.
August 28, 1931 - Mother and I took the Ford and went to see Mayme. The mile east of Hall's was just freshly graded and we had a terrible time. We went over to my school and Mayme helped me with my lesson plans. I went to choir practice tonite. After that Ray, Hansi, Willie and I went out to Loretta's for her birthay. We kids played games outside and I had a gorgerifous time.
Gorgerifous -- I like it. Need to remember to use it some time.
I am afraid I have too much on my plate to have brain power left to think of something to add. So, instead I will just find a photo and post this and move on. Somehow I have boxed myself in to making too many Christmas gifts, some of which are for others to give so there's no wiggle room there. But it's fun and it's all good.
