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.

Brothers!!
October 10, 1931 - I got up about 10:30 this morning. I straightened up the house and washed my silk things. I started to walk out to Annie's this afternoon, but got a ride to the east corner. Ray and I wanted to go to the dance at Hoskins tonite, but Mother said we'd better stay home. Emelia, Art, Dora and Hans Ruschman came back from Rochester today.
October 11, 1931 - I helped Mother with the work this morning. The baby surely is sweet. He's so big and so long. Annie had quite a bit of company today. There was a free dance in Hoskins tonite. Mother said we could go if I got to Walker's by eleven o'clock. But Ray didn't want to go, so I was in bed by 9 o'clock!
October 12, 1931 - It rained all day today. Mr. Walker took me to school this morning. I went to bed early this evening. Our new geographies finally came today. They surely are nice.
Somehow I can kinda see Uncle Ray and Grandma in my mind disagreeing about going to a dance. I might have it all wrong, but I do have a mental picture.
