Grandma Letter ~~ January 22, 1996

Dear Shelby,

Your note paper is very pretty.  Unusual to find your name on anything.  I love the tea set card.  It is so colorful.

The aftermath of the storm has been horrible.  We still have piles of snow, even after all that rain & all they plowed up and dumped.  My car doors were frozen yesterday morning.  I didn't think I would ever get them open.

I know how anxious you are to get it done.  The house, I mean!  I have your album all up to date.  It is something you can keep.

I called your Mom Saturday morning & no one answered & I called again - same result.  Of course, I thought something happened to someone, then I realized your Mom was working.  I called that evening & she said your Dad was at your house.  Painting, I assume.

Friday we had such a heavy fog, I almost cancelled my appointment with Dr. Shore.  He put me on baby aspirin.  I must have an echocardiogram for my heart on Friday & on my next visit have a physical.

Fred took Ruth & six others out to dinner Saturday.  He sure gets around with all his problems, the least of them his being 100!  Mrs. Wallace will be 90 this next birthday.

I got a perm last Monday - I sure did need it.

These pictures show how bad the area is all around us.

Well hon, be careful, you & Jack & take care.  Write soon & love to you both.

Love always,

Grandma

P.S.  I took Jana's books back to her yesterday.  She is living at Donna's till 2/7.  Eric is trying to get a house in Bon Air near Richmond.  Her baby was born on the 17th.  He is a little doll.  Jonathan Thomas is his name.
