Nana Letters 12-18-2008

Dear Kristen,

It was so nice to get your letter!  I wondered how you squeezed in the time.  I am very well on my 96th year.  I have missed Jack so much.  No more dancing.  Leonard just had BIG feet and had spent so long in the army, they eventually cut off both legs, but the army now sends me his remittance and with social security, I never spend it all.  I'm just a very lucky person.  It was so nice to talk to Kellie.  I am so happy to have my independence.  Yes the foster home makes good meals.  Not too many sweets though.

Bearing Best Wishes For A Holiday Season 
Filled With Peace and Joy

Are the girls in college close enough to still live at home?  How old is Amalia (Amanda) now?  I know your home must be lovely after all your husbands work.  You were lucky to catch someone so crafty.  

No, my ankles don't hurt.  But I don't have to shop for groceries and can always find somewhere different to wear every day.

So write again.  I swear to answer.  The lady here put up the Christmas tree today.  It is all lit up now. and yesterday she put boughs above the doorways.  Roberta had me out for Thanksgiving and I assume will also on Christmas.  So the lady arranges her day differently.  They are good friends.  Roberta is working in Nebraska again.  She is 54 now and will be content to stay home someday.  They always have good cars and no doubt lots of payments.  

Love to all the family,  Nana
