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.

Quilting into the night
Tues., January 14, 1936 - We had bean soup at school for dinner. Talked a lot again tonite.
Wed., January 15, 1936 - Snowed a little this p.m. I went with Niemans to Fischer's to quilt. When we came home at 12:30, three inches of snow were on the ground and still snowing, no wind.
Thurs., January 16, 1935 - Clear and no wind. Ray and Mom came at 4:00 p.m. We went up to Morris' to Sophia's shower. The ladies were just leaving. She rec'd a lot of nice presents. We got home about 10:00. Fired up at the schoolhouse before we went to Nieman's.
Unless it was a day off from school, I have to say the 12:30 arrival back home was a.m., not p.m. Why am I not surprised? Quilters gotta quilt. I do not know who ended up with the quilt in the photo or even if it was one Grandma quilted for someone else, but I like it.
