Grandma Letter ~~ March 1992


The note card art is noted on the back as "Monet Working in His Floating Studio at Argenteuil" painted by Edouard Manet.

She writes:  

Dear Shelby,

Thanks for the nice letter.  My pen is acting up!

We have had very nice weather up to now, but it is very cold & the wind is bad.

My little violet that I bought at the Philly flower show never did much.  

Mr. Wallace is still in the hospital.  He is having trouble walking.  His right side is paralyzed.  She can't bring him home if he can't walk. She is afraid he may have to go into a nursing home.

Harold's eye is much better since the laser.

Ruth has 7 grandchildren & 1 great-grandchild (another 2 on the way!).  Her sons never married.  Yes, the crib blanket was very pretty.  She wants me to make another one, her granddaughter in Georgia called last week & said she is pregnant.  I like doing things like that. I took up several things yesterday that were too big.

Your mom says she is expecting you this weekend.  She says she enjoys your visits.  She wants to come up here soon.

It snowed here Wednesday.  I had 3 prescriptions filled this week - $99.00!!  That is only a month's supply of each.  Lucky they didn't all run out at the same time.

Well hon, not much news here so let me hear from  you when you have time.  

Love always,

Grandma

Love to Jack.
