Life unscripted...

Well, this past weekend taught me that I can actually adjust to an even larger dose of complete chaos than I previously thought. My grandmother, who is dying from liver cancer, took a terrible turn Saturday evening and we are looking at what is definitely the end. It is a devastating blow for me since she is more like a second mother than a "grandmother". I spent not only my childhood in her company, but much of my adult life as well. She potty-trained my kids, fixed boo-boos, made chocolate milk by the gallon, gave sage advice, scolded, loved, and cemented our family together for what has been my life. I will be sad to see her leave, but glad she will be whole again never to suffer the indignities of this life. I will miss asking her questions, having her teach me to cook and, most of all, watching her play with my children who dearly love her and have been so blessed to spend a small portion of their lives with her.

I'm still working at the store and things are on track for us to open within the next two weeks. Forgive me if my blogs are few, things are just hectic. Most of all, thank you for reading and following this blog! Maybe when things calm down a bit, I can start posting some fun stuff...

Peace.
