FAMILY

sooooo

My grandma had a stroke but shes is doing fine.
I talked to my family from back east today...
My uncle Mike who I havn't talked to in ages (my grandma now thinks he is her brother instead of son)
My cousin Rachel who I also havnt talked to in ages (my grandma now thinks she is her sister in law)
and my cousin Andrea who just had a baby. My mom didn't even TELL me she was pregnant until a few weeks ago, so Andrea probably thinks I'm such a bitch for not calling and saying congratulations even though it isn't my fauly. Damn it mom. So I called her today but she seemed kind of annoyed I called since we don't keep in touch except for every few years when I visit.

So I almost lost my grandmother too, and for a few hours I really thought she was gonna be gone. All I thought about was how much stuff I never asked her and how much I don't know and want to know about her life. The day before her stroke I was going to call her but didn't have time because I wanted to go shopping. I regret SOOOO much not calling her because that would have been the last time I could talk to her (in her right mind). Now she is so confused Im not so sure she even knows who I am anymore. I fell so guilty for choosing shopping over her, its so weird how much we take life for granted and let it slip through our fingers.....

BUT mistakes are for learning so lets go to vegas and make some mistakes!
(did that make any sense?)
