Old Woman!


In recent years, I referred to her as "Old Woman!" Not out of disrespect, but out of complete RESPECT for the life she lived. My grandmother was incorrigible, courageous, stubborn, humble, funny and just precious. Her ability to face the next obstacle was inspirational. I miss the way she smells. I miss the twinkle in her eye. I miss her quietly whispering to me, "I love you!" I even miss her pinching me! I used to be so afraid she'd hurt herself and take unnecessary risks...now I know, that was just the way she lived her life! She always landed on her feet. She is safe and sound now in heaven. God I loved that Old Woman!
