bare_bearI haven't been keeping up on here of late, but it's a little difficult to get online at my grandparents place, where I'm currently visiting. Plus when I do get online, I'm usually looking into jobs or how to write a cover letter.
Anyways, I've finally gotten up here to visit my Memere and Pepere in Sudbury. I love them both, but they are an older couple, and I admit that I'm pretty bored. My Memere works during the day, and my Pepere and I are both pretty quiet when there's not a more lively person around to keep up the convo. As it is, I ask him a question or start a topic, he answers in a way that sort of ends the convo, and that's it. But it's nice to be around them. I haven't seen them in a year!
I'm worried about my Pepere, though. His breathing is getting bad, and he uses his puffer a lot. :(
The good news is that my Grande Memere is causing trouble at 97 years old! I remember the first time I came up to visit my grandparents after moving to Kingston, and Grande Memere was living here. We were playing dice, and she totally played up the 'I'm and Old Woman and Don't Know What I'm Doing' thing. She'd keep rolling despite her turn being over, and no one except Pepere (who she bickered with constantly and didn't listen to him anyways) argued with her about it. Once, she looked up and caught my eye, then winked. The cheeky sneaky woman! :D
Anywho, I should go see if Pepere needs some help watering the flowers. Ooo, and call my friend who is here right now, see if she wants to meet up for coffee! Happy Thursday all!
