Cant add Granny without my mother. My mother and I wernt close til the year before she died. I was in my early 20'when she died, that wasnt too long ago. She was a mean but funny lady. Life had delt her a pretty crappy hand. She did the best she could being a mom and dad, with no job skills, and a family who constatly used and abused her. She needed my help paying bills when i was barely old enough to work. I do admit, my additude didnt make life to easy on her. She was kicked around by her mother, her well-to-do sister used her as cheap labor and 4 ex husbands. So yes, she lived a hard life. I miss hearing her childish jokes and how she saw life. I think i took some of her traits of being a loner and silly humor. When i was 2, my so-called father left and took everything of value. Still she tried to remain in high sprits. He little spirts of anger and jokes and her talks is what i miss the most. I wonder if my mother was still alive today, would she be proud of me.......
