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.

Look at me, posting on a Saturday
Tues., December 22, 1936 - Baked cookies & stirred up peppernuts. Tonite Howard & I made out our lodge reports.
Wed., December 23, 1936 - Sent my lodge report this p.m. Howard took me to town while he went to McClary sale. Went with kids to Elmer & Myrtle's. The rest of the bunch came later & surprised Howard & Elmer for their birthdays which were a week ago. I believe they here surprised.
Thurs., December 24, 1936 - Worked on Xmas presents. Tried to make some candy but it wasn't so good. We went into town tonite. Mom was pleased & surprised with her quilt. Home at 12:00.
So, it all was a surprise -- how nice. And Grandma Anna got a surprise, too. I wonder what the quilt pattern was. Photo borrowed from ahhhquilting.blogspot.com. Look at the neat quilting there -- I think I may need to check out that blog.
