The weather has been chilly at night and cloudy during the day but humidity is low for a change. Odd for this part of the country to have low humidity but it feels nicer when it is low. Especially for my spine.I may be going to Ikea in the next week and I will take some photos of my big adventure if and when I get there.
Do you remember my post on Lena, the little Italian girl sitting on a street corner
I contacted a historian/genealogist who was interested in her and we have corresponded back and forth. It seems my research on her proved to be very helpful. I had hoped it would be.
He will be interviewing two of her daughters, both in their 90's now and still alert and happy.
Here is the original post on her.
Lena has no grandchildren by her children but does have a great niece with whom he spoke . I am very excited to find out more about this darling girl. It is odd how you can become so attached to someone you never met and who is decades apart from you but Lena reached out and touched my heart across time.
Lena would be around 115 years old now.I will again be offline for a few days as the spring holidays come to an end and I hope you all have a glorious weekend .
Make happy memories and don't forget to smile often!
