Today was a great day. I got to hang out with twin and father all day today. It is kind of nice not worrying about work, even if only for a moment. I guess things do happen for a reason. That's why I don't have a job yet. If I was teaching like I wanted to then I would not have had the day that I had today. Score 1 for being a sub!
Since twin was in town we went to San Antonio to visit our grandparents. I love seeing them and even though they are so close I don't get to go as much as I should. One reason is partially because they only speak Spanish and I unfortunately do not. Somethings I do pick up on but a lot of it goes over my head. I really need to learn Spanish, but it just doesn't stick with me. My grandparents are along in age and are doing fine. They have a helper that comes 5 times a week , 4 hours each time to help them, which I am glad. I have heard that they both have been having problems falling. I worry for them, a lot. I know death is inevitable, but still I love them so much and don't want anything to happen to them. I like going to visit them because when I am there memories come back to me as a kid. They live in a house that my grandfather built himself. Nothing has changed since I was a kid. Everything is the way I remember, except for pictures. I see new updated family photos placed next to the ones from years passed. They are all over the living room, on tables, walls, and coffee tables. I just like seeing the progression of just about everyone in my family from child to adult all in one room. Hugs from my grandma are magical. Just for that brief moment everything is quiet and I am at peace.
After the grandparents we stopped by my sisters house to pick up my step-mom's keys that she left in my sister's car last weekend. Then it was time for the drive back home. I hate driving through crowded cities. It didn't help that my dad and twin fell asleep. I was left with Reba to sing duets.
