Picture the usual grandmother portrayed in most media. She has graying hair and a little on the fluffy (fat) side.She spends most of her time in the kitchen or at the local salon getting that graying hair shampooed and styled in a short, teased hair style.She always answers your questions with "Yes, Dear."She never curses or says anything bad about her grandchildren. Her grandchildren are her life and they can do no wrong!
OK- Erase that image because you are not going to get that here!
This Grandma dyes that gray away and is letting her hair grow long.What do I care about hair stylists that say short hair lifts your face? Nothing is going to lift this face except a plastic surgeon or a miracle. I really don't care! I have earned every wrinkle and they don't bother me.I could do without the sagging jowls but oh well.
Cooking-some family & friends think that I don't know how.I think it is best to leave it that way. I did the Susy Homemaker phase when I was raising my daughter.Cooking, baking, cleaning, sewing,gardening, canning my own produce-sure I can do it but why would I want to?
I answer the questions around here with the blunt truth and if they are stupid questions, maybe a few cuss words thrown in for emphasis.
I have 3 teenage grandchildren. Do I love them with all my heart? Of course! Are they perfect? Wake up, People! I said teen aged- that should answer that question. They are running on hormones which has really dumbed them down the past few years.
Why am I writing this Blog? What do I expect from it? No Clue!
I hope to answer questions from younger people. Maybe those that don't have grandparents in their life.I will tell the truth whether you want to hear it or not. I am known for that.I have 55 years of life experience.In most cases. I have been there, done that! If I haven't done it then I know someone that has! I don't care what you ask- I am not easily shocked. If you do shock me, it would probably be a good jolt for my heart.
I am also completely over the menopause mountain and did it with no help from the medical field. I have NO estrogen and that makes for weird body experiences. I also have all my female parts in tact even if they aren't working anymore.Most women I know have had hysterectomies by now so it was an uncharted trip for me through Menopause Land!
Surprise! My only child, a daughter, has decided that after raising 3 children that were each born about a year apart and FINALLY getting them to the age where they can feed themselves (well sort of)- It is time to have ANOTHER! Yes, she is about 4 months prego! Here we go again......................
So, anything you want to throw at me is welcome! Please keep me entertained with your questions.It won't be hard, I am easily amused at life in general.
