My Grandma Good kept a diary for many years. It’s a pleasure to skim the entries which typically mentioned the weather, the labors of the day, visitors, food, letters written and received.
OK, I will write a diary entry — actually I took notes yesterday, which will destroy the immediacy of the entry. Further I wrote down everything I did; thus it reads like experiential account, not like Grandma’s pattern. I wonder how far you will read!
