I know I've been absent from this space more than usual lately, but don't worry I have excuses:
-I've been/am sick. I'm getting better, but it was pretty awful.
-Work is killing me, man. It's bringing me down and I don't want to bring that energy into this space so it kept me away. Also this week Park Voyagers started again, which means long, exhausting hours.
There are my excuses.
But I know all my readers are super laid-back and easy to please so you weren't annoyed at all. So you didn't even need my excuses ;)
But there they are just in case.
Now to the point of this post.
1 year ago, Friday, my Grandma passed away. I wanted to write a great remembrance post, but I didn't. I remembered the day in my own way.
I think about Grandma everyday.
Because I love her.
And because I use things that she used everyday.
-her old coffee maker
-can opener (huge upgrade from the handheld one...whew)
-glasses-the kind you drink out of. I actually love them.
-a coffee mug I gave her and she ended up just looking at it rather than using it (she said she liked to look at it on her window sill to remember me every time she looked at it)
-some of her clothes and bags
It would be hard NOT to think of her everyday, but lucky for me it always brings me such wonderful memories and I love it.
I miss her all the time. She was always so down-to-earth and put things into perspective for me. But I trust that things happen the way they're supposed to.
