My Grams

[Exian]

I feel bad for everyone else on this planet for not having my grandma as their grandma, but some people just draw the short straw. Dems da breaks. She's had a few heart surgeries, and has decided to bravely stare death in the face this time around. She won't be having anymore surgeries. The doc said there's nothin more they can do for her, if she declines. She's decided instead to throw a huge party and get the whole family together. She'll basically be alive for her own funeral. Did I mention she's a bad ass?

This woman is a tigress. If I were you, I wouldn't mess with me or any other member of her family. She'll shoot you dead. My mom tells a story of a bully at school; when my mother told my grandma about this bully, her response was "Throw a brick at his face." Hahaha No nonsense.

Here's my little stick of dynamite.


I couldn't possibly encapsulate all that she means to me in one post. I could go on and on about how she was always my best audience, always laughing histarically at my lame jokes, or how quick she was to shoot right back. I could go into great detail about how she has fostered a generation of creative talent in my family, but I couldn't possibly do her justice. (She once drew a tree trunk that taught me all I needed to know about understanding form, I was 6)

I'm gonna miss this broad when she goes. She is definitely one of the good Christians.

An asides:
She has wasted no time in appropriating her stuff haha She's never been one for material things. We found this in her basement. It's a book issued to her father before he fought in WWII. She plans on giving me all his stuff, which includes a bloody swastika he ripped off one of his fallen enemies.



Took this just because I could t believe my daughter is almost as tall as her lol
