  • Granny says way to go.

    Hello All. What to talk about?Well, it is my youngest grandson’s 12th birthday today.I had to ask his mother how old he is.Hard enough to remember 11 birthdays.I draw the line at ages.I DO remember my kids birthdays.I was there. Got up this morning to be told by M that we have no water.Again.Apparently some…

  • Granny has a chuckle

    Hello All. I think I might have mentioned this before.If I have, bear with me.My brother lives with the nearly 99 year old.My brother had a brain tumour which affects his memory.The nearly 99 is nearly 99.Eye sight not good.Hearing not too good.They are always looking for things.Remotes.Magnifying glasses.Library books.You name it and they will…

  • GRANNY IS PUTTING THINGS OFF

    Hello All. Once again I have no idea what we are going to talk about.I should be writing a newsletter for the complex.But, all I can think about are complaints.So, better I wait until I can make it a bit more entertaining. One thing I AM going to include is the way people are now…

  • Granny says what now.

    Hello All. My body and I are at loggerheads.When I was working I had a couple of problems.By the afternoon I was in dreadful pain down my left leg and in my back.Had x’rays and they said it was a disc problem. I also had a procedure to check my arteries.For the life of me…

  • Granny and the day after.

    Hello All. My birthday continued with a late visit from a friend with the rose above.The mark on the rose is a crack on my phone.Hopefully, only on the protective cover.Being me, I asked if she had pinched it.She assured me she had obtained permission.The best part of the rose is it’s heavenly aroma. Now…

  • Granny and the celebrations

    Hello all. As you know by now, I have a warped sense of humour.Received the above from my Step-daughter.I love it. Celebrations?Well. I took M to the blood place for his Warfarin levels check-up.It took four attempts to find a vein.And then the levels weren’t too good.He has to go back in two weeks time.He…

  • Granny has another dream and other stuff

    Hello All. A change from my seascapes.A few years back, a friend told me that LP records were back in fashion.Does anyone know if this is true.The above is a pack of 5 records.In pristine condition.Doubt they were ever taken out of their sleeves.My Mom did things like that.As I do not have a record…

  • Granny and Saturday somethings

    Hello All. Have no idea what is going to emerge from this empty brain today.It is raining and delightfully cool.Am sure you wanted to know that.We do not have a rain gauge.We sort of judge by how much water is in the bird bath.A fair amount. I got up during the night.As per normal.And looked…

  • Granny does nothing

    Hello All. Yes, this might prove to be a post about very little.I got up this morning.Eventually.Always a good start. I DID go to visit my Stepdad.Who hadn’t put in his hearing aid.So a lot of repeating occurred.As I have said before, he will be 99 in July.I get the feeling he has really had…

  • Granny says hurry up.

    Hello All. Power is due to go off in about 45 minutes.For two hours.I might just go back to bed.M is hanging up a load of washing.What would I do without him?On the other hand, he brought me a cup of luke warm coffee.Turned off the kettle too soon.No-one is perfect.Thank heavens for a micro…
