My weekend with

gma was good and sad. I know that seems weird but it was true. Connie stayed with her on Saturday morning and then I went at 1pm to take care of her the rest of the day and evening. I really enjoyed our visit but I could tell she was very tired that day. She laid down for awhile and then got back up for supper. She rested again afterwards and that was basically my day on Saturday with her. On Sunday Connie had watched her in the am again and while on her watch gma got sick again. I went out to make sure Connie wasnt alone and help with getting gma back in the chair to just rest. Papa was going to church with mama and connie and I was going to stay with her but she was so weak and tired that I wanted papa there with me. I hadnt seen her like this for awhile and I just felt that no one should really be alone with her incase of needing extra assistance in helping with her care. Papa gladly came over and we visited with her when she wasnt sleeping. Today I asked mama how she seemed and gma told her she was just poohed out. To me this is sad but I really love being with grandma. She has been there for me from when I was little to now and I have a hard time of seeing her this way. I cant really be there the way I should be for I really dont know what she needs. This makes me sad. I feel lost at knowing what to do for her to make her feel comfortable. I love her so much that I hurt as I think of the suffering she is going through. She has been strong and stubborn at times when she felt things were tough. She has been an awesome and wonderful gma and I will forever have wonderful memories of her. She could tell awesome stories, played shoestore, played beautyshop and her noodles are awesome.
This is just a little about my gma and if you dont know her I am sorry and if you do know her I hope you have good memories of her as well.

Thankfully the craziest morning of the year

is finally over!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hipp-hipp-hoo-ray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have yet to understand why people would get up and wander around stores until 5am and then slam, shove, push, and/or beat each other up for material things that are not really that much on sale. We had our 42 inch tvs by our babyland and when they said go, 8 overgrown guys piled on them like a football game. Oh my word, the toy department looked like tornados swept through it and the electronics was even worse. People were running into each other with carts, giving that evil look to one another and other distressed people standing in line wanting things that were already gone in a matter of 5 seconds. One of the department managers was running around asking me if I had any signing. Well to be perfectly honest I had no idea what she meant even as I write. My thoughts were she should have been there before 5 if she wanted something done her way. I walked off with another co-worker stating we must stay away from her but eventually she met up with us again still asking about the signing. People were calling and asking us to hold stuff for them until they got there. Of course that is totally out of the question on black friday or blitz day as we call it. Setting the items up for the day were causing us enough headaches let alone having silly phone calls like that. Well I think that is enough on that note.
Brenda must go to physical therapy to get her strength back from the illness, Mama has a clean bill with the catherization and Gma is home for the time being. She got home on turkey day.
Connie cooked dinner for turkey day due to mama not being able to and of course she felt like the little red hen and when she said it was done we ate it with no problems. Mama had to eat in the recliner due to leg cramping where she had her cath done but she was also pretty worn out. Brendy, Connie and I played games and of course we played our 2 favorite ones: chinese checkers and slap the berrybird. This is a kiddy game that you can actually hit people with out getting in trouble :) and that is why we like it. Dad and ma took naps while we entertained ourselves and then Connie put smokies on and they had supper while I came home to rest up for the lovely night at wally world.
Well I think I hit about everything that needed to be mention and now I must get some stuff done around here.

ahhhhh

Wow what a month
this has been. Grannyma, Brenda, and Ma have a thing for the hospitals. Grannyma went in for about a week with the chf and now brenda is in and hopefully she will be out in time to be with mama on wednesday for her heart procedure. I worked the election polls on Tuesday and then afterward went to work at wally world. I really enjoyed the polls. I saw people that I havent seen in a while and I had a nice group of ladies to work with. I was even a "judge" then. Now that was awesome... JUDGE SHARON a great ring to it Wally world is busy getting ready for the day after TURKEY DAY. So bring your friends and neighbors and come shopping. You dont want to bring the family since that is who you need to get the presents for Well I must take this tired body to bed for a few minutes before I go see brenda. Have a great weekend and remember to be thankful even through the rough stuff for it could be worse than it is.
