My Grams

[colz85]

Today marks 34 years since my Grams died.  I was five.  I remember my dad telling me.  He took me for a ride in the car.  We got home, and were talking in the driveway.  He told me "Grams died yesterday".  My whole body was paralyzed.  I still remember the  feeling.  Like...numb.  I thought "I can't move.  I should get out of the car and go inside

Thanks for sharing this. Not at all long and definitely not boring.

It is interesting you mention the part of bringing the towel in with you. I do the same thing, but not because of your grandmother of course! However, I do it for the same reason: the air behind the shower curtain is warmer because of the heat transferrence from the hot water. So I do most of my drying before I get out of the shower. I really don't know from where I learned this.

It is nice to know from whom you learned certain things. Those things hold more importance as a result.

Wow, you know so much more about your grandmother than I know about either of mine. She lives on in your memory. Thank you for sharing your memories with us. It wasn't boring at all.
