I wrote this for the writer’s group I attend. the topic was Surprising Backstory. While this story is based on the truth I took liberties and embellished it just a little. I hope you enjoy Surprising Back Story Her name was Grandma. Not that that was her actual name. The introduction went “Grandma this is Teresa, Teresa, Grandma”. I was…
I REALLY NEEDED TO GO FOR A WALK…. I really needed to go for a walk. The current events from virus to riots to the entire world narrative was stressing me out. Big time.
