Not that anybody knows me here on a personal basis, but i just had to spit this out...life has a way of kicking you in the teeth sometimes
My Grandmother (Paternal) passed away friday due to complications of a stroke....the woman is not even in the ground yet and the Bull@*%t has already started...family can really suck sometimes.....
I was the first grand child and just a little spoiled by this woman and up until yesterday we shared a bond that the other grandkids did not enjoy....as a child i spent most of my time at her house (both parents worked) she taught me many things and was often the only ear and sounding board i had most of the time....of the several thousands books i own she bought the vast majority of them without blinking an eye....i will miss her smile and her odd sense of humor
long trip ahead guys to make it to the funeral wish me the best...

I wish you peace.
