A Single Prompt

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmepQiBLx7kyP4v2Yye2E6cf3bU8XpGiTUyttMafBAKNPE/img_0.3280891958048067.jpg)

I've never seen a ball winder before googling one today. (I demoted google to lowercase letters for my reasons I won't expound on in this post)

I discovered that there are probably as many types of ball winders as there are car models. I did a simple image search. Wow! These winders range from cheap and single-person use to fancy(commercial) use, and for everyone in between.

Immediately, I thought of a ball of twine, Jeff purchased hiding in the junk drawer. It was wound by the commercial ball winder version.

Secondly, the winders resurrected memories of my paternal Grandmother, Vera. I saw the bags of yarn by her chair that she used to knit and crochet with. She would have benefited greatly from a ball winder. In those bags and boxes of yarn, often yarn became tangled.

I remember fondly the many pair of winter mittens I received as a child, often, one thumb on one hand, was slightly longer than the other.

I wish I'd appreciated those things as a young child, but I just didn't. Fortunately, I grew close to her after Grandpa died. She was in the same nursing home he spent his last year living in. I began visiting every Sunday between church services. She had slipped into dementia or normal forgetfulness, but I was able to see her past in many conversations and we grew close before she passed away.

It's funny how an item triggers memories this way. A ball winder I'd never seen before brought back to life a Gramma who loved much.

These words trigger memories, and in my case they made me laugh a lot. I didn't know what a ball winder was, and the truth is a phrase that I love, I find it sexy and delicious, and the truth is that I make love to these very sensual words :)

I know that you will think that I am crazy, and yes, I have my madness, but I enjoy it, just as I enjoy reading when you talk about your life and your memories, it is something that is very healing for me.

Also, I love short readings and with this narrative style that you use, I love them!

I'm quite happy to read that you enjoy my posts.  The freewrites are great for triggering my memories. I feel that I've succeeded as a writer if my simple prose creates an emotion in my reader and especially if it provokes a smile.  
Have a wonderful weekend.

I did not know what a ball winder was either. I think you have a beef with google but I would know much of anything without it. Beautiful memories of your Grandmother.

Yeah, I'm not fond of big tech as a whole and I prefer privacy browsers over chrome and internet explorer.  Gramma was a depression survivor and a good, loving woman.  I miss her.
