It is funny how the smallest actions will spur a memory. My watch did not take in account Leap Day. So I had to change the date. Which is as easy as 1,2,3.
As I was in the act of doing so I remembered out of no where that I was once Grandma's personal watch mechanic. I had forgotten that until that moment. It made me smile. I am not sure how it came to be?
I think/guess that she mentioned that she had to add or deduct an hour from her watch because of day light saving time. I think I offered to change the time for her, which I did. From then on it was my privilege to change her time every daylight saving time.
I did it for years but that was not all. Any time it was not working properly she came to me. I helped her get new batteries, change dates, show her how to use the various functions etc. It was one of those digital watches when they first came out. I guess to her it was a mysterious gadget.
