Grandma Letter ~~ Postmarked January 17, 1997

Dear Shelby,

Thanks for the nice letter.  I love the cartoon!

It sure is cold here today.  8F this morning and a wind chill of -19F.  Ruth called & asked me if I was going out!  I said "No way!"  We have so much ice on the ground.

I am so glad your plants are doing so well & look so pretty.  Those 2 never did bloom much for me.  Not the right environment.  

I am sending you a clipping from "Dear Abby".  I thought it was worth a few chuckles.

I am working on that afghan that I just sent for.  I think I sent you a copy of the picture.  It goes easy!  I only have about 5" done.  I have arthritis in my left shoulder & I can tell when I use that arm too much.  It hurts the next day but I don't let that stop me.

I like your return address stickers.  You seem to have so many different kinds.

Well hon, not much news here so let me hear from you & take care.  

Love always,

Grandma 


Love to Jack!
