Its been a while. Its cold as hell. It makes quitting cigarettes all the easier.
My Grandma Baker and my Aunt Jenene both passed away this year, within a few months of each other. I was able to see my Grandma Baker before she went. It made me smile a little that she had asked to see me, while she didn't ask for my father.
She could still remember the time that I had her over for a week while the folks were on vacation. My Grandma Mary came over as well, I made dinner for them and we stayed up until 2AM playing cards. My dog Cocoa put her cold wet nose on Granny M's arm while we were playing two different times and it startled her both times and she cried out in surprise, Granny Baker and I laughed until we cried.
I feel bad because I haven't shed a tear for either my Grandma or my Aunt and I miss them both so much... I know the whole 'grief-cycle' thing and 'it can take years to come to terms with their demise and you may never cry' but it doesn't really make it any less painful or easier to let them go.
*shrug*
Not really much to report otherwise.
Happy Holidays!
