I have become a frivolous old gal. I am seeing five gentlemen every day. As soon as I wake up. Will Power helps me to get out of bed. Then I go and see John. Then Charlie Horse comes along and when he is here he takes a lot of my time and attention. When he leaves, Arthur Ritis shows up and stays the rest of the day. He doesn’t like to stay in one place very long, so he takes me from joint to joint. After such a busy day. I’m really tired and glad to get to go to bed with Ben Gay. What a life! Oh yes. I’m also flirting with A1 Zymer. Love, Grandma PS. The preacher came to call on me the other day. He said at my age I should be thinking of the hereafter. I told him, “Oh I do it all the time. No matter where I am, in the parlor, upstairs, in the kitchen, or down in the basement, I ask myself.. .Now what am I here after?” We’ll just let you wonder who Grandma is....!
