The blog posts below are taken from my grandmother's diaries. Althea Green Smith Crook was lovingly referred to as Nanny to her immediate family ~ thus her diaries are called Nanny's Diaries.

Nanny wrote in her diaries when she remembered to - mostly in the evening. There will be some years in which she didn't keep diaries and there will also be some days/weeks in her yearly diaries in which she skipped or forgot to write in them. For the most part, these are her words - written as she wrote them. There will be typos, forgotten punctuation, and other grammatical errors - but I am rewriting these as my Nanny originally wrote them.

As with all old handwriting, there are some entries that I can't quite make out - and these entries will be followed with a (?) to signify that this may or may not be correct or I can't figure out what she is trying to write.

Thank you Nanny for leaving us 50 years worth of memories! We miss you!

Monday, June 18, 1992 Toy Land

 

A nice day, on the quite warm side. Well we got ready early and went to Story land with Brogan. Dorothea, Betty H, Betty S, Carmen, Kim and me. Brogan had such a good time and Brogan enjoyed it all so much. The rides, animals etc. Carmen, Kim and Brogan went on a lot of the ride. We had lunch there. It was a nice day, not too hot.

Today we had thunder showers. I did the washing. Carmen came tonight or this p.m., had a nice meatloaf etc. Very good. I watched TV in PM. Heard some news this morning.

Cloudy and rain. I did the ironing. I worked on my accounts today. Carmen came and got a angel cake delight made for supper. Watched soaps today.
