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.

Normal goings on
January 6, 1933 - Mrs. Jochens took us to school in the car this morning. Harry and Minnie were sick and missed school. We had quite a windy dust storm about 4:30. Ray came after me about 3:30. Mom had 2 teeth pulled today and was cross this evening. Edwin B. and Wendell W. were here for supper. (I left my beads at Jochens this morning.)
January 7, 1933 - Mom cleaned the duck for tomorrow this morning. We were going to Hoskins to get my check and then to Norfolk to cash it, but Strate is in Omaha, so we didn't go to Norfolk. Henry Kahlers from Osmond and Annie and Ola and kids were in the p.m. H. Kahlers were here for supper. Neva Hansen came up this evening to do some R.N.A. work with Mom. Ray and I went down to the library and got some books.
January 8, 1933 - To S.S. and church this morning. The duck surely tasted good at dinner. Read and played lazy this p.m. Washed my hair. Mom, Ray and I played Pinochle. As usual I was low man. Mom and Ray brought me back to Walkers about 9:30 tonite.
Don't know that I have much to add. I don't know the rules of Pinochle, but based on Grandma's comment, being low score must be bad.
