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.

Sandwiches
Tues., October 15, 2002 - This was my dad's birthday. Had my hair washed, etc. Nancy came after work & took me to "Jim's", a place that specializes in home health. New "skis" were put on my walker -- take the place of the tennis balls (Called Greta to report on dental deal). We then went to Staufers' Restaurant & had chicken fried steak, etc. Was really good.
Wed., October 16, 2002 - Went to Book Club in evening.
Thurs., October 17, 2002 - Called Myrtle this morning. Also called Marjorie C. Tom came in evening & brought some special sandwiches. The usual routine of laundry, shower & Rummikub.
Speaking of special sandwiches . . . Mitch, Mom and I hosted 15 of our family members (plus Tanner and Willa) for a meal Sunday at Mom's of traditional Danish open-faced sandwiches. Well, we researched and were as traditional as we could manage. We were a bit nervous as to whether everyone would like the nutty, malty Danish bread but very little of anything went in the trash at the end of the meal.
Afterwards, some of us played Squeak -- something we had not done after a family meal in a very long time. Needless to say, it was great fun. So glad everyone could come and that they enjoyed our efforts. We should probably do it again sometime, I think.
