I have one mean ass granny
When you think of grandmothers, you typically think of cookie-baking and quilt-making. With my very special granny - not so much.

1. She affectionately calls my two teenage sisters "the little whores"
2. My bedtime story when I was little was "Bloody Bones and Butcher Knives"
3. She wakes my grandfather up every morning saying "Good morning asshole!"


The list could go on and on, but she makes my life absolutely wonderful! I have to laugh at her, even when she is being genuinely hateful.

I love her!!!

Anyone else have a very special granny?

1. Not quite like yours!
But I loved mine bunches. She could have been a pro gambler. The lady had a knack for cards.
And making chicken and dumplings.

2. As she hugged me after our wedding vows my wife's grandmother
whispered to me "If you ever do anything to hurt her I will hunt you down and kill you. Do you understand? just nod" I nodded emphatically.

A little while later as guests were entering the reception she spied the facility's bar, turned to my mom and said, " You don't suppose we could get a decent drink in there do you?" They spent a very satisfying half hour having "serious cocktails" together.

Years later she was diagnosed with lung cancer. It took her quickly. She moved from her home in AZ to a hospice in SF. We visited her every day. Id arrive first and chat with her. One day when I arrived she was sound asleep. After about half an hour she woke up, peered groggily at me and said, "Dave, I,ve got one thing to day to you." "What's that?" "SHIT!" we were still giggling an hour later when her daughter and my wife showed up.

she was one hell of a lady.
