Memorial Day Weekend 2012

Memorial Day Weekend, 2012

Spent Friday sleeping so that we could go get the car. There was drama surrounding that, and I am ashamed to say that I did not handle it as well as I could have, as I would have liked. 

Then, after loading the car, peeing, picking up Danielle, getting dinner, we're on the road. I texted My Grrrl at around 5:39, to tell her we were on the road.

We got there around 2:30. Lots of pee breaks, and one getting lost issue in Lubbock.

After an hour or so, everyone was in bed. My sister was not happy that she had to sleep with my gramma, the kids on the floor, and we on the couch. I was happy! 

Saturday, we had donuts for breakfast. I need to get a sticker from the box for my book! 

Danielle, the kids and I went to Fazolli's for lunch, took Danielle to get her nails done, the kids and I went to Target to get some stuff for Aunt Cherry to hang a picture they bought Gramma for Christmas. We also went to Pier One while we waited... 

Then, we took Gramma to go see Grandad an Uncle Danny's graves. Gramma got us lost. No worries, except Danielle got grumpy about it. We were in separate cars. We finally got there, and then Gramma couldn't find the graves. I went into ask. By the time I came out, they had found it. We spent sometime there, listening to Gramma. It was nice, but sad, especially the part where I found out that dad as was supposed to be there too... Kinda makes me mad. Viki won't share the ashes, she is remarried, why not let him be there, at least have a stone there. I think that it would mean the world to Gramma.

Now it is Sunday, I hope to get copies of pics today, and sit around and talk. Aunt Robbie will be by tonight, or so they say. Uncle Gary was by last night.

Danielle can't breath with all the smoke...she is grumpy, and negative. I can't say that I would be any better if I was in her shoes, but since, right now, I am not, I am not grumpy, so I notice it more... 

Today, I want to ask questions, with the iPad recording, we'll see if that happens... Now, I need to wake up fully,and get to visiting'... 

This might be the last time we get to see Gramma, that sadly means that it will be the second to last time I will see my aunts and uncles. I will see them at her funeral. Then, I have no extended family left. I don't count my moms side, and she knows why. Thank goddess for My Grrrl's family!
