Real update
My Gran's been having a terrible time with her mother-in-law (just getting old, and doing silly things... is deaf but wont admit it etc...) and her youngest son's family. Basically he's in a shite marraige and his wife is a alcoholic... and their two sons (my cousins) dont know what to do with themselves... though the eldest has said once he reached 17 he's getting out and finding himself a flat. How he'dd afford it I do not know.
So my grans really stressed out - and as per norm dumping all her baggage on me and my mam when she visits, which isnt really that bad, we're used to it, but it's still a bummer soemtimes. Apparantly last time she wisited her son, the wife was drunk (she used the word stoned >.> but I know what she meant), and kept picking up on a few words of a sentance and picking the negativve side of things..as well as being overly excited and talkative, which is not like her. Gran left early and when she got home threw up her dinner she had there because of the stress. I feel so awkward as theres nothing I can do.
Further more, Ive been planning on shaving my head sometime soon, if it's okay with work. I know she doesnt agree (I was stupid enough to ask), I'd still like to but dont want to put her through that. I suppose _some_ would just say it's another excuse not to, which I suppose it kinda is but not. It's difficult.
