It is basically the middle of the night and I can't sleep, so I'm going to tell JPP a story about a love of mine.
Grandma
I took care of her (and she cooked all my meals, poor me) a bit before going to college. She would often fall asleep watching TV and I would pull the blanket over her so she would be warm. Never said anything, but I always had a hearty breakfast, lunch and Lawd knows the dinners were the bomb. Especially Friday beer dinners when I was 17.
Anyway, so college apps came in and off to college I go and she had to live with her oldest daughter. Not an ideal situation, but it is what it was. After my first year I decided to spend a year in the south pacific teaching (and surfing
). I visited her before I left.....
She had to get around in an effing wheelchair for somewhat long walks. That didn't stop her from making me take her to the mall and making me accept 3 t-shirts.
I wore all three until they were threads.
Love you Grandma.
