AM I NOW A TWIT?

For many years I have heard people refer to someone as a "Twit". It is not a complimentary term. I believe it means "lame" or "ditsy" or whatever is the colloquialism of the day. Well, this morning, I finally caught "Twitter Fever" and set up an account so that I can follow the Tweets (quick, short text messages) of about 10 people who I am interested in. That means I can Tweet as well, although if or when I do, I have now idea where those Tweets go -- because I have no "followers".

But, that leads me to the question, "Am I now a Twit?"

Why I'm called "Nutter Grandma"

Many years ago, one of my daughters married a man with children. The youngest was barely learning to talk. His father told his kids they were going to have another grandma. The next time one of them saw me, he called me "Nutter Grandma" and it stuck.

Then, I became a grandma of my own sweet grandchildren. As of now, there are nine. I always hope for more -- but the older my children (and grandchildren) get, the less likely that is.

Later, I became a "step" grandma and a "step" great grandma. So, in many ways, I am still Nutter Grandma. Amazingly, no matter how many of those little ones come into my life, and no matter how they come, I love them all!

P.S. In 2010 I became "step" grandma to a few more grandchildren when I married (yup, again). I guess those little ones who called me "Nutter Grandma" almost 30 years ago knew what they were doing.
