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.

Rummikub extravaganza
Sat., October 12, 2002 - Dolores brought bananas and milk. They were on sale at Hy-Vee & I paid her for them. We haven't played Rummikub this week - she has had a very sore leg - almost sounds like the sciatica I used to have. Greta called in p.m.
Sun., October 13, 2002 - Nancy & I went to Mary's church -- All Saints Lutheran. We had dinner at KFC's. Went to Penney's & I bought a fall weight coat. Then to apartment -- took a nap -- then showered & then 2 games of Rummikub.
Mon., October 14, 2002 - Bill came at 11:00. We went to a restaurant & met Jenny & Patty. We had lunch & then Patty & Jenny went shopping & Bill took me to the dental school at the university. Impressions were taken for both upper & lower dentures. Bill & I played several games of Rummikub. In evening I played cards & won 3 games.
Grandma and Dolores might not have played Rummikub lately but it looks like Grandma got her fill over the next couple of days. And of course she paid for her bananas and milk. We wouldn't imagine it any other way, would we?
In honor of Dorothy Jo's birthday earlier this week, here's a photo of her place I've always liked. Simple, but as I recall she was showing the other ladies some of her flowers and I happened to catch this picture.
