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.

Suddenly December
Sun., December 13, 1936 - Myrtle & I had the whole family here for [it stops there]
Mon., December 14, 1936 - We were at Elmer's all day. Howard helped butcher a beef. Went to Gladys Reichart's party tonite. We exchanged gifts. I won chair prize.
Tues., December 15, 1936 - Howard took me to town to wash. This evening Ola's & Mom came out. We played Razzle-Dazzle. Ola's bought 4 roosters from us.
Me and my spelling questions . . . I thought Reichart was Reichert. But, I was just a kid when I had to even remotely worry about that. And I mainly just went to class. I didn't have to spell my teacher's name.
For no particular reason, here I am with Aunt Myrtle in front of the old porch I still miss.
