She also did it hard though the depression and world war II.

I wish I'd had that kind of relationship with my own grandmother. She never really talked about the past at all. <br />Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11032969125788408807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-35982295398447008032013-02-14T15:44:55.387-06:002013-02-14T15:44:55.387-06:00Great post for valentine's day.

As for washing the floor when not sleeping, I'd be better off or more like my floor would but that's when I read some blogs-perhaps not a good idea but I'll usually go back to sleep. mssewcrazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610005723483105088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-79667312496268500952013-02-14T15:09:20.719-06:002013-02-14T15:09:20.719-06:00My granny was born on Valentine's Day too! Tha...My granny was born on Valentine's Day too! That was a lovely post as it reminded me of our strange and lovely family too. I wrote a poem about my granny who was a wonderful knitter, but who lived with her eldest son and his wife and son, who unfortunately was the same age as me. I was clever with my brain (in the nuns' remedial knitting section - if only they could see me now! - he was clever with his hands, but not so clever. My granny couldn't see my 1st place in a class of 45, only that I had scrappy handwriting. It took that poem to be cathartic enough to let that barbed comment about my handwriting go and let bygones be bygones. How funny (and childish in our own way) we all are!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-76945877627853967452013-02-14T14:50:03.916-06:002013-02-14T14:50:03.916-06:00What a lovely storie, Lane.

She past away one year and two days ago. 87 years old. <br />I stayed over with her two weeks every year untill I was 18 years old, but only now I know how much I didn't ask her.... Why does one only learn those things when it's too late??? <br />Nice to learn you have such fond memories of your Oma (grandmother in Dutch). <br />Love the ones you with.<br />Have a happy Valentine's too.<br />Bianca Biancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13124458364369038191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-67377562336952542022013-02-14T11:12:49.391-06:002013-02-14T11:12:49.391-06:00What a wonderful post about your grandmother. My ...What a wonderful post about your grandmother. My Grandma's birthday was yesterday and it was our first without her. She would have been 90 if it wasn't for that stupid cancer. Anyway, she was Czech, and had an accented voice that carried a bit. She was one of the most unsentimental people I know--she used to say that people like to talk about the "good ole days," but she never thought they were good! No one had deoderant and hot showers, etc. She was a riot. An incredible cook. And a worker. She had a great garden, too, and a big bush of sweet peas near the door. When we are through with the army and finally get our own house, I'm going to have sweet peas, too.JoAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16725295327088235909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-74975061157307727532013-02-14T11:12:42.527-06:002013-02-14T11:12:42.527-06:00I was hoping you'd have a post JUST LIKE THAT....I was hoping you'd have a post JUST LIKE THAT.

She made me feel special and important and loved. Everyone thought they were her favorite, but I know I was <i>really</i> her favorite ;).<br /><br />Happy Valentine's to you, Sydney & Rob!
