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.

Christmas 1932
December 25, 1932 - The entire family went to church this morning. Aunt Emma and family were here for dinner today. We had 3 ducks for dinner and they were good! This evening Mom, Ray and I played cards.
December 26, 1932 - I played lazy today. Mom sewed a little on one of my dresses. We went to Wayne this p.m. Aunt Midge has been in bed a week with flu. Were at Riese's too! Tonite Ray and I went up to Brogren's and got Edna R. Then to Hall's for Mayme's birthday. We danced a while and played Rook. We had a good time. Annabelle Brogren's birthday. Mayme Hall's birthday.
December 27, 1932 - Edna and I slept quite late this morning. I washed my hair and she finger-waved it for me. This evening we took Edna to Hoffman's for Gus' birthday party. Ray and I went on to Lydia W. birthday party. We played Bunco and had a good time. Stopped and got Edna on our way home. Lydia Wittler's birthday.
I hope I have the right Emma here. Regardless, she seems rather sassy in this photo. I know there isn't much to go on, but does anyone know where this photo was taken?
