Two Noras: 1915 and 2023

My  paternal grandmother, Nora, was a great recorder of daily events. I have her daily notes from 1913, 1914, 1915, 1916, 1918, 1919, 192...

Two Noras: April 20, 1914 and April 20, 2021

Nora Bauer: Monday, April 20, 1914

Was pretty cold today. I was so hoarse this morning that I could barely talk. 

Nora Spitznogle: Tuesday, April 20, 2021

I wound up working from 8:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M today. Luckily all was calm. 


I hope Grandma Nora's hoarseness was from her talking and laughing with her cousin, Sister Hyacinth. 

2020 saw civil unrest and the #BlackLivesMatter movement and a summer of protests surrounding the death of George Floyd. The verdict in the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was announced today. 

I made contingency plans in case the verdict was such that would cause more unrest. Luckily all was calm.
