Sorry this is late. Every Friday I share a story about my Granny Nancy McClamroch.
She’s in Heaven now. Here’s more.
If the weather was nice, Granny was in her garden.
She’d have a rag or towel wrapped around her head and a garden tool in her hand.
And she would never, and I mean NEVER, wear gloves.
Granny said true gardening had to be hands-on.
She used old-fashioned scissors to clip the grass around some parts of her flower kingdom. Talk about precision. The work she put into her garden made migrant work look like a day at Disney.
Granny snipped and clipped, dug and dragged, planted and pruned year after year culminating in the abject mastery her garden was. It was a labor of love that all who knew her will remember.
When my folks go to Grandpa’s this weekend, they’ll bring back pictures of Granny’s garden so I can show you.
We transplanted some of
Granny’s flowers here. When they bloomed it helped Mommy smile to know a part of Granny was right here with us.

I missed you! Yes, YOU!! I forgot to post my sign when I went AWOL.
Sorry about that. Daddy had surgery; and my brother Kedrick‘s band, sports and school stuff is wild. Other stuff, too.

I owe you THREE Granny posts. It’s a good thing Granny was a wacky, wonderful lady. I have enough stories to tell until I croak. Enjoy the ride!
Mommy and her brother Mark are Granny’s two kids. Well, they’re grown now. They’re a couple years apart. Mommy’s older. Shhh…
Anyway, whenever something came up missing, broken, messed up or just out of order when they were kids, Granny would say, “Who did this?”
As you might imagine, no hand shot up. The McClamroch kids both shook their heads, shrugged and mumbled, “mm..unh-unh,” which is a sound people say when they shorten “I don’t know.”
Granny would smile, laugh and say, “There goes the McClamroch ghost again.”
The McClamroch kids were glad there was somebody else to blame; even if it was a ghost.
Granny said her kids had Dropsie, leaving a strew of stuff here, there and everywhere. No matter how often she put stuff away, there were always shoes, school books, bikes, play stuff or the like dropped in the middle of wherever.
Granny had sayings for everything. Her cure for Dropsie was, “Final resting spot.” She had different variations all meaning the same thing. Granny would command, “DO NOT..AND I MEAN DO NOT…UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, set ANYTHING down until you put it in its FINAL resting spot!!” She left notes, chased the kids around wagging her finger and hoped they’d catch on.
“You’ll never have to clean if you put stuff in its “final resting spot” she campaigned. The kids had confidence Granny would pluck wayward items and skedaddle them to their final resting spot, so they never got cured of Dropsie.
Granny’s sneeze was like a five-alarm- fire. She sort of yodeled the burst.
Researchers say sneezes are like laughter. How we sneeze reflects our personality.
So, of course, Granny had a loud explosive sneeze to match her
wacky, wonderful personality.

Sorry this is late. Every Friday I share a story about my Granny Nancy McClamroch. She’s in Heaven now. Here’s more.
Mommy told me a story about how my Granny outfitted herself in a full body gorilla suit that looked totally real. Granny aped into her boss Landon Knight‘s office with her best ooh ooh ahh ahhs.
Mr. Knight was known for his crumudgeonesque manner, so he told Granny to get back to work without so much as a raised brow.
Mr. Knight’s in Heaven, too. I imagine Granny’s enjoying his company.
Holy macaroni and cheese!
My little bunny ears are aching.
The Thunderbirds ! It’s a sound you can’t miss.
They look like big red, white and blue birds. A cross between a bird and a bat.
They twirl and whirl, and flip upside down. They fly straight up. Then straight down.
I sort of got sea sick watching the up, down and around.
We hear military planes a lot since our house seems to be in their flying pattern. But, the Thunderbirds..now that’s an ear-splitting sound. The big birds are here for an airshow. Me and Mommy watched it yesterday on YouTube. You can see it here. It knocked my bunny socks off!
I don’t think bunnies are allowed into the airshow. I’m glad because it’s too loud from here. My bunny brain can’t imagine how loud it’d be at the show!
Our house rattles when the planes fly over it. Sort of like being on the highway with your window down. Like a HUGE sweeper, too.
My kitty siblings… since they’re over-the-hill old..are freaked out by the noise. I think they’re all cowering in our dank basement.
The Thunderbirds arrived Thursday. They practiced Thursday and Friday.
Loads rumbling whoosh sounds til tomorrow.
I’ll be glad when the big birds go bye bye. xoxo
I’ve got some funnies for you.
How do you make a rabbit float?
Put soda, syrup, and milk into a glass.
Add one rabbit.
What’s the difference between a rabbit preparing for a beauty contest and a rabbit getting ready for dinner?
The first rabbit imagines world peace. The second rabbit imagines whirled peas.
I know, I’m corny today. There’s nothing better than a good belly laugh to make a day go from good to great!
Here’s one…Why did my bald-headed daddy paint a bunny on his head? Because from a distance it looked like hare.
That made me laugh so hard I thumped and let a poo-ball roll.

Every Friday, I write about my Granny, Nancy McClamroch. She’s in Heaven. More here.
Mommy told me Granny couldn’t stand hearing people scream outside for their kids to come home.
She said she would never holler for her kids. She had a better idea.
In the 70s, Granny bought an industrial strength whistle.
When she wanted her kids to come home, she stood on the front porch, drew in a deep breath and then blew that whistle as hard as she could.
Then she’d head to the back porch and do the same. All the neighborhood kids knew the whistle meant the McClamroch kids needed to get home.
It worked like a grapevine. Even if the kids were too far to hear the whistle, other kids heard it.
Those kids told other kids until it got back to mommy and her brother that they needed to go home.
Granny kept that whistle on her key chain.
I guess Granny’s whistle was sort of like a cow bell calling folks to chow. That’s cool.
I’m so excited. I have tons of sparkling, rhinestone jewelry that I’m listing today. Along with gold and other fun stuff.
The earrings, bracelets and necklaces are beautiful. Some are vintage, some new, some modern. I still have hundreds more pics to take. Head to my store, share it on your Facebook and stop back later.
