Mom's Strange Magic - The Podcast
S1:E3 - Wandering through my great grandmother's journal from 1929
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today's episode is just a wee story about a family heirloom - my great grandmother's journal. While modern folks sometimes see their journals as a way to share their art or creativity with others, such as with junk journals, in the past these keepsake tomes were often a place that held the emotions, thoughts, and moments that were not able to be shared in other places. Or, better stated, journals then were not always like journals now.
You can see images of the journal on my website, Mom's Strange Magic. Yes it takes you to my Patreon, but as I've shared before...most of the content there will be free.
