So around thanksgiving this year my grandfather ended up in the hospital because some blood vessel in his digestion tract exploded. He made it home in time for thanksgiving though. But Christmas eve morning he went out to the mailbox to get the Post Gazette and fell on the ice. He broke some of his ribs and punctured a lung. He was taken to Butler hospital and then they transferred him to Allegheny General. So.... my mother and my grandmother spent the entire day at the hospitals, which left my uncle and stepfather to cook dinner for Christmas eve. We decided to have dinner and stuff on Christmas eve this year due to scheduling conflicts on Christmas day with people. Dinner came out good though, although a few things were amusing all of us as we were eating dinner. You could tell the men prepared dinner because we didn't put the butter for the bread on a butter dish, just stuck the stick of butter in it's wrapper onto the table, everything was in huge bowls, and there were a few other things I can't remember right now.
My mother had driven me ABSOLUTELY CRAZY on Christmas eve, apparently her way of dealing with Grandpa in the hospital was being more high-strung then usual, which if you know my mother she should be on Prozac on any normal day.
I finally just looked at her late in the day on Christmas eve after her and grandma had returned to the house and said if you don't calm down I'm shoving a Valium down your throat.
I ended up staying the night at my grandparents house and grandma and I went to the hospital on Christmas day. I was gonna just drop her off at the hospital and go home and shower and stuff. Well her and I walk up to the ICU and find out that you can only visit for 30 minutes at a time. So I stayed there for the 30 minutes, and it was hell, they have no chairs!
So we left there and headed for my house and I got a shower and she got to play with Spaz, my bunny who she loves cause he lived upstairs when I lived at home.
So Grandma and I headed back to Butler and my mother was at the house and was still being all crazy, I gave her some migraine pills and tried to slip a Valium in with them but she was like what's this. So then Mom and bill headed to their house and I left to meet them shortly after, Bill's family was coming at 7:30. She was still being all crazy and Bill and I were avoiding her, he was like I need the bathroom and disappeared upstairs. I got all into my laptop until his family showed up and then around 830 I was like I have to go meet people.
I picked up Justin and
thewebmachine and headed to Denny's and then we went to the porn store and then back here to Justin's house.
Today I went with Justin to Rodney's and picked up the TV that he bought off Rodney.
So the holidays did not seem like the holidays. They were just craziness.
