My granddaughters birthday she is not yet in her teens, but plays a great game of volley ball for her school and does most of the scoring with her agility. My other granddaughter is a computer wizard, I think she should be known for her computer technology skills, but that is because I am her Gramma.

Today had so much in the news that frustration was the word. The whale that found himself in the Thames River, did not survive the good efforts to save him and get him back to his own environment.

Men trapped in Mines again! Terrorist's threats! Michigan's storm watch for Friday and Saturday.
Our area was lucky enough to be spared of heavy snow cover.

Should I head for the refrigerator and devour everything? I think not! Self control is the priority.
Ah, here comes my family to see what Gramma is writing in the computer. Welcome!
Apparently all is OK.
Who could ask for more? I could but I won't.

comments welcome

January's vegetable produce certainly cannot compare in quality this time of the year in some supermarkets. Michigan's weather has really not been the worst for it, but produce prices are much to be complained about. Two tomatoes, $4.69? I really did not need them! I can order a salad already prepared for that price.

Having been a gardener for many years, I look for veggies all year long. Our gardening seasons are short in Michigan. One gets spoiled with fresh garden produce that it is difficult to settle for less on the market counters. This is my second entry on my blog, and I never thought I would start with garden veggies. As an elderly senior I shop carefully once or twice a week. Having worked in market stores in my younger years, today everything is different. I love it anyway, we have so much more these days, and hours can be spent looking over the vast products available. Benvenuti any comments.

My granddaughter showed me a website earlier called The Ageless Project and suggested I start a "blog" (I later found out what that was). When I saw The Ageless Project included people from the 1920s having blogs, I was inspired to do the same.

It's great to know the people from the 1920's are involved on the web. From the blogs that I have read, I am very much impressed with the variety of subjects and I hope to contribute many of my own.

Ciao until next time!
