She had a huge vegetable garden every year, and sold produce, and canned nearly all their winter's food supply. And, her house was always spotless!!! Boy, when I think back to her busy life, it makes me feel like a lazy slob!!! :oops:
People her age got used to keeping themselves busy without tv or computer.
