The I-Never-Had-The-Warm-N-Fuzzy-Grandma Club, 8D Options

[Zen Clarke]

Crystal and I came up with this. Obviously, we aren't very close with our grandmothers. Are we the only ones?

My granmda is great, but at the same time, she plays that, "Youdon'tloveme!" game. I really don't appreciate being told how I feel, y'know? And, she's overly nice to my cousins dead-beat husband (who I speculate as abusive). She says she's trying to keep the peace, which in turn, makes my mother extremely irritated. But, that's the worst of it.

My grandma is a sweet, little Pentecostal woman who is always taking care of everyone. She helps me with my questions about spiritual stuff, and usually has good answers. She goes to the store and buys like 6 packs of Little Debbie cakes, so her grandchildren/host grand-children can eat them. She never has any clue what I like to eat, and usually gets chocolate milk (I don't like it) and pickle relish, saying, "Remember how you loved these things?" But, hey, at least she thinks about me. She prays when I'm sick or something, she tries to calm me down, when I get upset.

Anyway, the rest of my grandparents are dead. I've always gotten along with my dad's parents, but I never saw them much. I liked my grandpa, though, because he was always trying to give me something or another. Money, candy, etc. My other grandma was mentally ill from the time I knew her. I loved her mother, though. She was awesome, simply the sweetest little Czech lady you could meet, but at the same time tough. My only living grandma's husband died, and he was like my best friend, so I still grieve his death even after almost 9 years.

...And that should wrap up my rambling. =/
