My gramma lived in an 8 foot wide house trailer next to my aunt's house so she could still be independent and my aunt was close..well before assisted living came about! Gram didn't get around very well, but sat at her machine at the kitchen table..the living room was on one end, the bathroom on the other...so we often played games on her living room floor while our mom was at my aunt's and kept her company. She always had a yard stick on the table for measuring. If one of us acted up, she'd wait til we were headed to the bathroom and "whack" :lol: She'd get you with that yardstick when you least expected it!! I can still remember "there, that's for you being a little snot" :lol: :lol: I'll tell you what..that little 80 year old frail woman had one heck of a swing!!! But I still have my dresden plate quilt tucked away 45 years later..
