A Dying Fact
So when my Grandpa was bed ridden last year we had gotten some new t-shirts and cut them up the back so it was easy on him to put fresh clothes on him everyday. Well, I just found out that my mom and aunt were putting these same old shirts on my Grandmother in her dying bed. Well, I don't know but I got pissed off.
I think if and old woman of 89 years old is bed ridden she should at least have some flowered t-shirts. Not her husbands old blue, red, orange, green and brown dying shirts. So I texted my Mom, My Aunt and My Brother and chewed them all out. This picture above is the result. My granny will now be laying in her dying bed in a fashionable way... Flowers and Purple. I love it. Thank you so much family for listening to me.Let it be known if I end up in a dying bed... I want flowers and purple also and some make up and someone combs my hair and washes me everyday and puts some makeup on my face and brushes my teeth and if I have some crazy hairs on my face. I want the crazy things pulled and any black heads Squeeze away!!! Sorry to be so direct but wouldn't you want the same?

Peanut, Flooding and Granny
So yeah I am suppose to be updating this site, my blog... LOL, I am doing so good at it. Don't ya think? Don't come here if you are looking for Grammar... it doesn't exist here! ha ha
Anyway. Granny is still chugging along. She keeps having strokes. She is in the bed almost all the time now.. Get's in the wheel chair a few minutes every day...
Well, I live in Oregon and we are having this gigantic flooding again. It is terrible... We have lost 2 lives so far that I am aware of and some homes.. I don't remember it raining so hard, so much, for just a few days causing all this mess. Washington State is in a freeze.. I have a friend that just moved there...what a welcome she got.
This picture was taken by Pamela Hayes... it has been passed all around Facebook today.. I have no idea whom she is but I would like to personally thank her for this picture. She has taken many that express the tragedy unfolding...
Oh and by the way My Family Dog Peanut passed away on Jan 16, 2012. She passed from complications from Diabetes and overall a dislike for feeling like shit and having to wear diapers and get stuck with needles... it was degrading to her.. Seriously she was so unhappy... I love you my little "Woo Woo" girl. Her most favorite person in the whole world.. my son "Pinky"... "I am sorry your dog passed son".
Peanut is the silver one... Ozzie is the black...he is now 3... When Peanut lost her mom she needed a companion so that is when Ozzie came into the home... I must say Ozzie is so sad about losing Peanut... But, I just can't get another little one right now. So that is life today! :)

update
So here we go starting this new year. Have lost 3 people so far in just a week. A friends mother, another friends mother and Putter's Grandpa... hope it stops at 3. That would be enough for me.
Brighton is doing well. We are learning our ABC, 123.. words...how to scribble inside the lines and most of all how to me calm and not want to eat every 15 minutes... She was eating like an old coal train when she first got her.. Anxiety I will call it. Now she is nice and calm. She eats normal... Yeah!!!!
She doesn't like Vegetables except corn and in my book corn ain't a vegetable. So I have been making smoothies for her sneaking the veggies in...you can drink anything with a straw and a pretty spritz of whipping cream on the top... I love my Vita-Mix machine... well that's the news from the Pacific Northwest for today... Have a good one!

Pinky New Year
Have not posted a picture of Pinky my son in a while. So there it is. His New Years Party. Found it on face book and stole it..looks like some sort of wine thing. He is doing good. He has a awesome job that he just loves. He loves mostly the security of money coming in to his pocket on a regular basis. I am so glad for him and he also has a lot of good friends. Yeah for Pinky... From the Old Mom!!

A day of Brighton
A Day in the Life of Brighton... full of energy and fun....
She wanted her box to be made into a race car with doors.... okay
Then she was out to ride her scooter that Aunt Jayne got her and Papa built... it stopped raining for a few minutes so we could test the scooter.

Getting ready for the road
Not sure exactly what I am feeling right now. My mom called yesterday and said both my Dad and Grandmother are on Hospice. Neither one of them can walk right now. Grandma keeps having strokes and can't even suck out of a straw... Last year dealing with my Grandfather so close and taking care of him his last 30 days of his life. Well, let's just say it has left me screwed up! Yeah that is how I would put it. So I am not in any hurry to get out there and see what is going on and helping. I have my own set of Medical Problems. Gonna need the neck surgery again. The titanium screw is backing off and I have my grand daughter Brighton full time 24/7 she is a handful... :)

2012 it is
It's is the start of the New Year... 2012.. I have about 13 minutes left to post for the new year. I am so hoping this year is so much better than last year. :) Smiles for hope.
I have my Brighton back again. I love her so much. A 3 1/2 year old keeps me busy and I am thankful for it. I need the reason to get up and make the day happen. I took a picture of her this evening as she was snuggling into bed. I will post it tomorrow with this post... Ah it is so much fun being a Nana.. Why is that? I enjoy it much better than the Mama time. Maybe as they say it is because I have so much more patience. For instance she didn't want to finish her dinner tonight. She mashed a taquito in her mouth and kept adding more milk but not swallowing and making a ton of nosies and faces...a little bit came out and got on her clothes. I simply asked in a calm voice "are you ready for bed?" NO she replied and promptly swallowed her food. Ha Ha..it cracked me up what I learned in that moment.. when I was younger. I would have reacted so much differently. Life is Good!!!
