LEANING

Jul 31, 2009 20:32

Mock the Week - Adam Hills - Leaning. Infectious leaning even, as suddenly everyone seemed to be leaning. I was in leaning heaven. That man sure knows how to lean :P

Nan had a minor melt down when I went to see her today. Tears, talk of grandad etc. etc. I just don't have the energy for her. It is completely draining to just be around her.

Went to have a look at Grandad's tree today as well. He helped regenerate a dumping space into a garden as part of a millenium project, was on the comittee as well as offering practical advice and assistance as a gardener. It was one of his favourite places and there is even a candid photo of the work being done that, rather randomly, shows him throwing tree branches out of the way. Most of the work done was when he was in his 70s but it never stopped him. So, when he died they brought up the idea of George's Tree at a committee meeting and the plaque went up earlier this week. The garden tries to avoid being a memorial garden but they made an exception in this case. It still shocks me how many people cared so deeply for him. He was my grandad so to me he always was amazing but I can honestly say I'm not the only one. So, have had a good cry today but I think it was needed.

All in all, a good day, in an odd way.

personal, comedy
