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.

I am not surprised
November 1, 1932 - We went to League at Schmidts tonite. We handed in our day's wages this evening. Played some new games. "A good time was had by all." Ella Mann birthday.
November 2, 1932 - Cold and windy. I went to Hoskins to prayer meeting with Evie this evening. Stopped at Simon Strate's and got my check.
November 3, 1932 - Started the examinations this morning. I have all the papers of today's corrected. Schmidt's, Wittler's and Fritz Maas were here this evening for a committee meeting.
I am not at all surprised that Grandma corrected the day's exam papers that same day. Me? I didn't get that gene, but instead a procrastinator gene, which showed up quite a lot in my 20's. I'd like to think I am better now; not completely cured, but better.
The remark about handing in our day's wages, would that be a League tithing sort of thing?
The photo is of Hoskins from 1912.
