Moving!!!!

[annalina_maire]

So Grandma asked me yesterday if I would want to move in with her so that she didn't have to move in with my aunt for a while longer. She wants to take her time to sort through her stuff before moving. After much contemplation about it I told her yes. The only issues I could see with it was the fact she didn't know I smoked and I still have my

Sounds like a plan

Hey! This is a good plan for you. I've been worried about Gma and this is certainly an option that provides good things for both of you. I'm sure that you can make it work. *huggles*

Sounds like a pretty good deal. [crosses fingers for you]

Have a talk with Grandma about "goodness".
You two can get closer if you are going to live together.
I would guess if you can get to a useful level of intimacy you both will benefit.

Or not

(not all grandmothers are the same)

P.S. Don't bet she doesn't know you smoke. You would be surprised how much cigarette smoke get into ones clothing and hair. Ask non smoking friends to check if you are wondering.

Every time you're tempted to get frustrated by living with her remember this:

a) it's short term
b) you survived living with me, Robert, Alanna, Joe and Jay (if you can do that you can survive your Grandma)
c) beneficial things will come of it
d) if you keep your full time job (or get a full-time job in Greeley) then you could save some $ and get ahead of the game
e) you'll have an opportunity t bond more w/ your grandma (and you'd be surprised how much grandmas loosen up without their partners around ... I'm speaking from experience w/my own grandma)
f) maybe when your Grandma and Aunt Julie sell their houses and get a new one, they can move into the Denver area so there will be less family spread between the Springs, Denver, and Greeley? (I dunno ... I'm being hopeful for your gas here.)

It sounds like a positive thing, so good luck!
