Its been an interesting week to say the least. For started we had the first big thunderstorm in a month... We desperately needed it to we were starting to get into drought conditions. The only problem I had with the oh so wonderful thunderstorm that lasted all day was that it made me miss Brandon. I love to combine comforting things in my life so I can be completely blissfull in one instance. I haden't seen Brandon in a week and I spent the whole rainy day, day dreaming about being curled up on his comfortable bed watching old cartoons, being held in his arms, while the rain poured down outside. I had to settle for just the rain that day. Then the other night I had the cartoons him and his bed. I guess the old saying is true "You can't have your cake and eat it to"
I have been needing to get a second job to bring in a little more money and so a few days ago I put in a couple applications online. Yesterday I got a call about an interview at Kroger. Today I went for the interview and got offered a job! I thought at first they were going to hire me as a cashier... Now I didn't want to be a cashier mind you but... heck I needed a second job and it didn't hurt to go in for the interview! Anyways, the lady asked me what position I'd like at her grocerie store, and I told her the truth: What ever she had to offer is what I was interested in. Low and behold she offered me a job in the bakery! I'd be baking cookies, putting labels on the cake boxes, baking the bread, taking orders for cakes, writing things in iceing on the cakes that we have pre-made, and all that jazz!!! I'm so excited and my dad is proud of me... bakers get a goos salry once they figure out what they are doing. My mother is less then thrilled with me... and I can't put my finger on why. Oh well, to hell with her! I gots me a second job!
Now for the bad news... I'm afraid it was looming and inevitable. Three nights ago my grandmother went to the ER. She had fallen down twice during the day one of those times she had knocked herself out. The blacking out diden't cause the sudden balance and memory problems that my grandfather saw in her that day, but it certainly didn't help. They admited her io the hospital so they could do tests and see what had happened to her. I went to visit her yesterday and while I was there her neuroligist came to see her and ask her some questions. She remembered that her bithrday was the next day (today) but she couldn't remember the year she was born. She knew my grandfathers name and that he was her husband, but she couldn't remember when they had gotten married. Since she couldn't remember I felt it my duty to remember both dates for her. Her birthday is June 12, 1931 , and her aniversary is June 9, 1955.
We found out today that in the last week she has suffered another stroke (she had one about a year ago). Its so sad and I'm really worried about her but... she's not in any pain and she is definately in good spirits. She tried to get out of bed cause she had it in her head she was going to drive my Aunt's truck. When she was told she couldn't she retorted that she most certainly could. When she was given her lunch she ate ever bite offered my grandfather a peice of the cake and then ate ever bite of that to. :) I love my grandma... she's fiesty even though she's in a hospital bed with things attached to her.
Well thats my week. Goodnight and have a plesant tommorow.


*gigantic huggles* I love you my little Loli. You're a wonderful girl and I'm proud of you!!! Well wishes to your grandmother, good spirits mean everything these days. And well wishes that everything gets much better for you. *kiss on forehead* Love you beautiful!!!
