Right now I’m waiting on a phone call and then hopping in the shower. I’m going to my mothers block party tonight. I know you’re sitting there like “mother? what?” but I’m really going for the rest of the family that will be there. I haven’t seen my aunt since Christmas (she’s also my god mother). And I barely speak to my grandmother anymore. She’s getting up in her years and now is dealing with some nasty arthritis so I’m basically trying to get involved as much as I can over time, you know?
This is probably the reason that’s going to delay my moving out of NY as I’d originally planned. First I was staying for my father because I don’t want to be HOURS away from ‘home’ in case something, god forbid, ever happened to him. The same thing goes for my grandparents right now because they’re really the only ones I’ve ever had. My dad’s mother died when I was 8 and I wasn’t very close to her, and I never met his father because he died when my father was 17.
In any event, I’m going to grab the phone and head outside for a quick cig. Later all!
aaw lovely! I feel that way about my grandparents. I don’t spend enough time with them and if I suddenly lost them I’d be so upset that I didn’t see them often enough.
Hope you had fun catching up! 🙂
