Hi,

Nana came up with a great idea (as usual) for helping Grampa to keep busy and productive. A typewriter! I've tried two used typewriters and neither work properly (remind me to tell the story of the guy in Attleboro who sent me and Steve on a wild goose chase). I was able to get one of the typewriters to work enough to have Dad test it. He totally remembers how to type and has an idea for a newsletter, The Old Times Gazette. Unfortunately, I'm at a standstill because said typewriter won't return properly or advance to the next line. I give up. My goal now is to raise enough to get him a new typewriter (Yes, they are still on the market...and are kind of expensive). I don't want anyone to be put out - times are tough... If each person in the O'Connell clan puts in $10, I should be able to accomplish the goal!!! Thanks in advance for any help.

Love,

Amy

(P.S. This little endeavor helps his caregivers too)
