Grandma Emma....good life.

Grandma Emma often spoke of all the kind and good people she was lucky to meet in her life. She lived with less stress than most of us do now. I feel that part of her long life was in her genetics, careful life choices and less stress. She walked everyday, weather permitting of course, ate well and didn't stress so much. For the most part she was happy. A formula for life that worked for her. Maybe there are some good ideas here! Two cups of coffee, two cookies after breakfast... yes, sounds good to me...

Mothers Day thoughts...

Grandma Emma told a story of her mother....Anne was her name. She would always have her knitting projects ready and waiting in every room of the house. So when she would take a rest and sit down she would not waste any time. Knitting socks, mittens, scarves and what was needed for those cold days of winter in Norway. Amazing, multitasking  has always been with us.  Happy Mothers Day to all, reflect and remember.
