The Magic Slippers

Granma got a nice Christmas gift from her Granddaughter. She sent Granm a cozy blanket, a pair of gloves and the "magic slippers".  I'm calling them magic because she was able to get them on her feet. 


Now mind you.....the slippers were a bit on the small size but that did not deter Granma. Nope. As I sat there watching her push and prod her size 8 foot into the size 5 slipper I mentioned that they might be to small.  Hmmmmm....I'm think'n that was the wrong thing to say.  Why?  I got the "Look" and a garbled but  emphatic statement...something like...."NOOOOOO they aren't"


With all the umph she could muster...... finally........the magic slipper was on.  
Now for the other one.

It all reminded me of Cinderella.  Not to say that Granma is one of the ugly stepsisters.  But I'm just say'n.


I'm just say'n......It's all Good!  Granma walked like a princess to her room and went to bed with her magic slippers on.

CHOCOLATY DELICACIES

Granma got some Christmas gifts.  Have I mentioned she has a sweet tooth?  Nooooo.... I mean a REAL sweet tooth?  If she could, I'm sure she'd eat sweets in any shape, size or form all day long. She got some Frango's and  are they ever yummy.  She's able to pop those in her mouth, no problem.  Well......getting the cellophane wrapping off poses a slight problem, but not enough to discourage the Mighty Sweet Tooth Granma.  No sir she'd eat that whole box of Frangos in one day if I let her. Now the other candies she received.....well lets just say she's a bit more choosy about which selection she makes from the assorted confectioneries. Here's her fool proof testing method.....She makes a selection, puts it between her pointer finger and thumb and gives it a good 'ole squeeze.  If it doesn't smush  she puts it back in the box and tries for one that does....smush, that is. I have a pretty good sweet tooth myself but after Granma's  tried to smush up every piece of candy in the box I think I'll just step on back and let her have her way with those chocolaty delicacies.

A RANDOM QUESTION

Our niece Megan came to stay with  us for the weekend.  She comes to help me decorate for Christmas. At the end of our day we sat down to a candle light dinner, Megan, Chuck, Granma Marcie and Me and of course Grace E. (under the table).  After dinner we always have the greatest conversations with Granma.  Here, she and Megan are having a nice chat.........Granma asked Megan, "ARE YOU MARRIED?" I wish I had a picture of  Megan's face. She said very politely, "Nooooooooooooooo I'm only 12"  Granma said, "Mmmmmmmhmmmmmm"  I said, "Granma, she's only twelve"  Granma said, "Mmmmmmmmmhmmmmmm" Then Megan asked Granma, "How old are you?" Granma answered, "I'm 94" Noooooooo Granma you're 103 to which she replied "I'M 94!!!!!!" Then she asked Megan, "ARE YOU MARRIED?"  We just laughed.  What can ya say?  So we told Granma it was bedtime and to say goodnight. So she did.   Good Night Granma. Sweet Dreams.
