Life Stuff and a New Quiz
I knew the past few weeks had been too quiet. Deep down, I knew something big was waiting to break out and change everything for me. Well, something close to that happened this past weekend. First and foremost, I wake up Thursday morning to find out my grandmother has had a stroke and was in the ER in Belleville. I toss on clothing and make a run for it, thinking the worst. Fortuantely, it was a mild stroke, without any following. She has most of her gross motor skills in her right side again, but fine skills are shaky and her speech is way slurred. Its so sad....she tries to talk, but knows no one can understand and she gets so upset. I have a hard time hearing anyone, and with her, its like I may as well be deaf. So what can I do? Sit back, nod, and hope I'm doing the right thing. Haven't been to the hospital since Friday due to classes and work, but she has been upgraded from critical (greatest chance of another stroke has passed) and has been moved to the therapy floor for the next month or so. I swear, as soon as she is able to, I'm taking her down to Sullivan to see Aunt Dot and the autum leaves. She loves those. I've slacked a lot on visting her the past couple of years, and this has waken me up and I'm going to take more time out to just go up and visit her, or call. I've always considered myself to be blessed becuase I still have all four of my grandparents, and I'm not going to waste anymore time when it comes to them. Knowing about them is just too important and life is just way too short.
Well. That was the big thing in my recently. Other things going on included: almost getting dropped from a class, trying to live on a very tiny paycheck, and not having help at work. All those things just seem small in comparison, though. Anyway, I need to get some classwork done before going to Bonnie's candle party.
Here is a quiz I snagged from JorJor:
You're Most Like The Season Autumn ...
You're warm, and the most approachable. You have
that gentle prescence about you. People can
relate to you, and find you easy company.
However it's likely you've been hurt in the
past and it has left you scarred so things can
become rather chilly with you at times. Being
the third Season in, you're mature, trustworthy
and loyal to your friends but prone to
depression and negative thinking.
Well done... You're the shy and sensitive season :)
