Mama loved it. (shock shock)

Sorry about the address I didn't know that you needed it. I will send it to you right away.

Mama's Godmother passed on today. She was originally from Dallas and my mother is from Oklahoma. When mama was 20 she lost her mother and once she married at 21 she moved all the way here with no family. The lady adopted mama and another neighbor who had just married and moved from Tennessee.

Anyway, today was her 99th birthday and we were shocked that her sudden death happened to be on her birthday. She got up this morning and was excited about it being her birthday because a cake and balloons had been ordered, she then suddenly told her caregiver that she didn't feel well and was tired. She then collapsed and died an hour later at the hospital. Mama is devastated to say the least. The day after Thanksgiving she was just telling me about how she NEVA thought that she would live to see us get a black President. She then asked me how in the world did the white people let that happen.

Alrighty, I'm ramblin now, sending the address and then to check on the laundry....

I sent you 3 emails on the back line asking for it 2 weeks ago and yesterday too, that's why I was asking you were you sleeping on your emails.. Wow 99th birthday, she had some good ass genes.. She can spread the word in heaven about our new President..At least she didn't suffer for a long time.. Tell Mom, she has my deepest symapthy... I know it's got to be hard on her... Your card is in the mail..

How do you like having Mom around.. Let her do what she likes to do... She has earned the rt.  to do whatever she wants when she wants.   lol

It's an adjustment but we get along okay. My cooking has been our biggest conflict but I solved that issue by letting her come and season the food before I cook it.

She insisted on going to spend last weekend with my sister and you should've seen how she was hightailing it back up in here last night...she said neva again. She's doing really good though, the PT and OT has helped a lot, she can now walk the halls and out to the car she is also totally independent again so that took a lot of pressure off of me.

She likes being with you better lol Glad to hear that, as long as she is moving she'll be fine... When she  stop moving that's when you have to worry...  Good she is independent.. Thank God  she have some good Physical Therapist and Occupational Therapy.. They are doing a good job if she is moving around..and walking... Her strength will build up gradually..

Yeah she likes it because I let her have her independence whereas my sister is trying to take on the role of SHE being the mother and my mom the child.

Now that mamas fluid is gone, she has dropped to just above 200 lbs, can't tell her nothin, she said that she hasn't been this small since highschool. I think that she will hit onederland soon.
