I am finally home. My mom and I got back to Iowa around 6 or 7pm yesterday. When we left California, I was looking out the window and something unexpected happened. I felt the most intense surge of emotion take over me. Memories flashed in my mind, of the time I spent with my grandma.
Like, holding her hand whenever we walked somewhere, laughing with her over silly things (like we used to when I was younger, and when my grandpa was alive), remembering how her hand fit into mine, feeling her wrinkles as I held her hand in my mine. Etc. Her hand was so tiny, frail, and precious. I also remembered how she taught me how to make homemade enchiladas, and seeing her laugh hard until she cried.
Then that’s when it hit me hard, Read more…

It is 5AM here in California, and we are leaving Apple Valley as we speak. I am going to miss it. I had such a fun time here. It was VERY much needed. Before I came here, I thought I was going to fall to pieces from all the stress back home with work, and other drama I’m not able to speak about. I feel recharged and strong.
I’m ready to go home and see my baby Benny. I am absolutely broke, broke, broke. I really burned my $ up here with all the amazing sales!!
My grandma isn’t doing well at all. Her Alzheimer’s is really bad. She kept asking the same questions over and over. For example, if we were going somewhere, she kept asking where we are we going when we already told her.
She leaves the oven on and forgets about it, she leaves her purse in the car when she bought something etc. Her hearing is very bad too. :(
I had a good time with my mom, grandma and aunt though. I didn’t get to see much of my uncle because he was away and worked the majority of the time we were here. I’m glad I got to spend vacation (alone w/out my sister) with my mom.
I hope Benny and will move up here someday, so that I will be closer to my grandma and my family. I want to marry Benny up here, at my ‘late’ grandpa’s church. *sigh* I hope it will be possible.
Anyway, I better close this post. I don’t wanna drain out my battery. Iowa here I come! The energizer bunny is returning much stronger than ever!
