A Pretty Good Day

Granny slept late this morning.  I know, pick your mouth up off the floor!!  She slept until like 9:30.  I was even up before her!!  If you know me, that's a HUGE accomplishment!!  Haha!!  She immediately got a cup of coffee.  I know, another shocker!  Then we got ready and headed out for me to take her to Bible class.  Yes, the Bible was still in the purse from yesterday!  All the way there we talked about how I was taking her because her friends that can come pick her up were all busy today and that I would be picking her up, also.  I drilled this into her head.

I went to go get her at 11:30.  No Granny.  There wasn't anybody anywhere!!  I knew they wouldn't just leave her, so I wasn't really scared.  I checked in the church office and that unhelpful lady's advice was to contact John Phillips.  Well, I'm standing outside the church building in the cold and I don't have John Phillips' number!!  I have Mom call him and he says that he has Granny and they are almost at the house.  Granny, of course, doesn't have her house key, so he, thankfully, waits with her in the car until I can get back to the house.

We trade the passenger and go our separate ways.  At this point, Granny is trying to be cantankerous, but I just won't let her.  We run by my Dr.'s office so I can grab something while she sits in the car and we head to lunch.  She has suddenly become concerned with how much things cost.  She wanted to go to where ever wast the cheapest and kept asking me how much certain items were at each restaurant.  Remember, that we are in the car.  I just go to Hardee's.  I give her the choice between a ham and cheese, a burger, or a chicken sandwich.  She wants to know which is cheaper.  Geez!  I keep telling her that it doesn't matter and she decides on a hamburger.  We have a great lunch with pretty good conversation and 2 HUGE cups of coffee.  

We leave and go to Hobby Lobby because I'm not ready to deal with her at home, yet.  Here's how it goes when we get there:

E: Okay, we're here.

G: Alright, you go ahead and take your time.  I'll just sit in the car.

E: But I want you to go in with me.

G: But I really want to sit in the car.

E: But I really want you to go with me.

G: Well, I really want to sit in the car.

(I put the car in reverse and start backing up...)

G: Okay, I'll go in with you.

E: Thanks!

I win!!  We go in and she loves it.  She was even smiling!!  It was fun for a little while, but having to respond to every teeny tiny thing she looks at gets a bit tiring.  It was fun watching her get so excited, though!  She did totally love the Easter stuff.

If you know Granny lately, getting her to smile for a picture is next to impossible.   So when she smiled for this one, I almost freaked out.  She even wanted to take more!!  It was fun being silly with her!

After I finally drug her out of Hobby Lobby we came home and are chilling.  She said she was very tired after walking around that long (that was my plan!!) so she made her more coffee (sigh...) and was in her room, she says, reading (reading receipts).

Actually, I just checked on her because she had quit talking to the dog and I didn't hear her anymore and I found this:

Yup.  She's napping-something she NEVER does.  

Apparently, she doesn't do it very long, either, because she just came into the living room!  Oh, Granny!!
