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.

Garden started
Sat., May 2, 1936 - I went to Wayne on the morning train. Went to Miss Sewell's office for fair labels. Bought garden seed. Howard up a few minutes this evening to see if we were going to the place tomorrow.
Sun., May 3, 1936 - We, Ray, Mom and I, went out to the place. Howard came a little later we did. The boys spaded the garden and Mom and I planted the stuff. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Miller came soon after we got home again. Howard brought me to Niemans.
Mon., May 4, 1936 - Mr. Nieman took the Mrs. to Altona after supper. Verdelle Mae went along. Mr. and V.M. are coming back sometime tonite.
No time was wasted getting seed in the ground, but with a May start, that seems about right to me.
I had to post a photo of Carol today Mom, Nancy, Wayne and I went up to Norfolk yesterday for her funeral. The whole family is sure going to miss her something fierce. I told a few people that as a little girl, I thought she was all that and then some. I often wished my name had been Carol, more because of her I'm sure than the name itself.
