I've been trying to spend time with Grandma and one of the things we've been doing together is watching documentaries because she loves them and I need them to help me brush up on my lessons. We are, as you may know, in the middle of Ken Burns' Civil War documentary. We were watching some 'Civil War' (she says, oh I like Civil War, let's watch that) and the episode described the fate of Mary Todd Lincoln, who died after spending her final years in an insane asylum.
My reaction, "Oh, how sad."
Grandma's reaction, "She was pretty crazy!"
