I had both a French Canadian grandmother and a Finnish grandmother. My French grandmother lived with us in Highbridge. I attended the Catholic school in Greenville but spent most of my time in New Ipswich. Trips to my Finnish grandparents' farm were special. Both grandmothers were poor. My Finnish grandmother knitted mittens and caps for me (I still have the last pair she made). I received no gifts from my French grandmother but did get of lot of love and attention from her. Thanks Debra for your story.

Tried to kill her with an axe? I guess I agree that counts as high strung.
