Not Your Typical Grandmother

Today's Blogger of Note is Grandma's Briefs

Lisa is a young grandmother who laments that her first grandbaby, Bubby, lives 819 miles away. She says she uses her blog to cope with being a long-distance grandma. Not afraid of challenges, she just started playing piano at 43. A former newspaper writer, she says she’s still exercising her writing muscles with her blog.

Happy reading,

Sandy & Pam

  1. See a lot of mommy bloggers, but so few grandmother bloggers.

    Will take a look at this one.

  6. This blog is going to be hard for me to read, since right now we live walking distance from my parents house, but are in the process of moving our 5 kids 900 miles away. :( I don't need anymore guilt, but I'll go peek anyways.

  10. I became a first time mom at 44. If I had done it in my 20s I don't think either of us would have made it out alive.... I'm off to see this wonder woman now!

  14. LOVE her "Failure Analysis" post & her "question of day." Also, her blog-title and banner photo are just too fabulous (great undies!)

  15. What a great find! I'm not sure which I like better...her witty insights or her header...

  16. I love the photo at the top of her blog! While not a grandmother (or mother!) I can sympathize with her heartache about being far away from her grandson. We've all been far away from someone we've loved -- haven't we?
