About Grandma Says…
This blog is my attempt to express my views, observations and thoughts on just about any subject that tickles my fancy. I live in Florida, am on Social Security (at last) and am primary caregiver for my SO. Blogging is the road to sanity for me!
If I make you laugh, make you tear-up, make you think or even make you mad, then I have accomplished my goal. Follow me on my journey through the scary, and usually interesting thoughts that occupy this old noggin. You might like the ride!

Hello! I’ve chosen your blog for the 2012 Blog of the Year Award. Check out the details here http://smshamma.wordpress.com/2013/02/05/2012-blog-of-the-year-award/ and keep up the wonderful writing!
I must admit, what first got my attention with your blog was your profile picture. “Wizard of Oz” is by far my favorite movie and has been ever since I was a little girl. It was our family’s annual tradition to watch it. On a different note, I’m truly enjoying your point of view and your straight forward posts.
Thank you for your kind words. They are worth a million to me! The Wiz is also one of my favs and since I came up with the “Cranky” username..the picture just seemed to fit right in!

Looks so pretty! Thanks for letting me know but it looks like WordPress transferred your followers. I’m glad I checked though, didn’t want to lose you!
Sweet! I was a bit worried that WordPress wouldn’t transfer my followers; a load off my mind! 🙂
They rock!
I’ve been so pleased with them, for sure. And thanks for your feedback on my blogs “new look.” Sometimes it takes awhile until I find the right feel, et cetera! Looking forward to Buddy’s report after his, ummmm, nip and tuck. 😉
