It was a journal written by my grandmother, describing her new life as a married woman and documenting her adventures with her husband. Looking at my grandparents, in their 55 years of marriage it's pretty hard to picture what it was like during year 1. I loved her honest account of being short on money and my grandfather's job filling the vending machines in the dorms. They could barely scrounge up the funds to get my grandmother her favorite drink, a bottle of Dr. Pepper!
My grandparents have had very full and successful lives and it's incredible to read what it was all like in the beginning. Reading the journal inspired me to document my years of marriage. Whether good or bad, rich or poor, I want to have an account of the emotions and experiences during each year.
So, in beginning this blog, please know this is my open to the public journal.... basically, it may be boring for you. I appreciate you looking and if it happens to be interesting to you, well great!
And here's a pic of my dog. He's my baby.
Enjoy!
