I drove to Ohio Friday morning (Marc managed to arrange his tests at the last minute so I didn't have to drive up there at night). LONG WAY! Made it in 9.5 hours. My Granny had to be told we were having a party for her because she wasn't feeling great so didn't want to go anywhere. My aunt told her there was a party but didn't tell her the scale it was going to be on. There were over 100 people there, mostly family, and she was overwhelmed by it. Family drove and flew in from all over the country including some cousins that no one had seen in over 10 years. It was a very special day. After the party Marc and I got to go spend some more time with her at her apartment so we could talk more one on one. I am grateful for the time I got to spend with her. Her health is not great but she still manages to live by herself with the cooking and cleaning help of two of my uncles.
Gabe called me Saturday from the flea market and wanted to know if I needed any new kitchen appliances. He was naming off some things and the one thing I actually did need was not an appliance but a new large Wok. I do a lot of stir fry and mine is old and starting to rust a little! He said they had a 14 inch one and asked if that was good. When I said yes he said, "Well, happy Valentines Day then!" Oh lovely. Yes, I appreciate the gift but if I had known what he was doing maybe I could have told him I really "needed" some flowers and a massage. *sigh* Oh well.......a long, long time ago he used up all his romantic gestures while we were dating and there have been none ever since. Why do I hope for more than this? Again....my STUPID, ROMANTIC HEART! GAG! Is there some sort of 'ectomy' to get rid of that part of it?
