Feisty 75 yr. old gramma is my mother in law

Last night we had an impromptu family gathering at my in laws. Since they have moved back to our town, we often gather there to banter the evening away nourished with coffee, tea and perhaps gramma's famous strawberry-rhubarb platz. Some of my husband's brothers and their wives drop by and join us, along with a visiting relative from afar. This is not unusual. What was unusual last night was the floor and the person who laid the floor. I entered the house to find the living room carpet had been stripped and in its place was a lovely rose brown hardwood floor. Okay, you might think, big deal....so granpa laid a new floor. Well you are wrong. The person with the triumphant smile was not granpa.....but gramma! At seventy five years of age this great grandma had a blast laying a hardwood floor and didn't have an ache or bruise to show for it! Her only comment, "I now have a marketable skill!" Yes, great gramma, has hammer, will lay hardwood floor...I can see the ad in the paper now. Kudos to my mother-in-law, definitely the senior citizen of the week!
