Re: Things Found in Grannies House!! My grandma's house has a ton of old knick-knacks in it. I love looking through all her stuff that she's collected over the years. It's got a bunch of afgans she made, and half eaten bags of chips. what I like best of all is looking through her old pictures. That's a lot of fun.

If you can't laugh, ya know, what's the problem!
Re: Things Found in Grannies House!! Sad that these things are eventually left for Family members who could care less to pilfer through, sell what they can and chunk the rest. Can't they try to remember the old times instead of going on cruises, cell phones, bottled water and such?
