Becky's Blubberings

Starting on Monday I will be going to my grandparents house Monday-Friday to help them out during the mornings. Mom will take me over in the morning on her way to work and my grandmother will bring me home before her nap, which is usually around 11am. It depends if she runs errands or not though.

My grandmother gave me a puppy for helping her out! :O

I was surprised even though no one thought I was. My grandmother thought my parents told me she was giving him to me but they didn’t and my dad thought I figured it out on my own. What’s weird though is, honestly, I had a dream the night prior to getting him that my grandmother did give me the puppy and I was walking him, although he was older not as young has he is now. He’s so cute too! I named him Rascal cause that just fits his personality, he’s a little rascal.  =]

I plan to do NaNoWriMo in November. I suppose I’ll have to do all my writing in the afternoons but thats OK. At least I will be home alone and no one here to bother me while I’m writing. =D

Now that I’m done helping my grandparents out at their house I’m not sure what to do now. I have somethings I can do although I’m not sure what to spend the majority of my time on. I suppose I could write and work on my story. Every time I try to write I’m not sure what to say, how to start it, how to put it. It’s almost like I’ve forgotten how to write stories. I haven’t done it in so long that I guess I could forget. I still write poems, not as often as I used to put I still write it enough that I haven’t forgotten how to do that. But when it comes to stories, I just, I don’t know. I don’t know how to start it, and then when I do I end up hating how I started it and then I have to start over. I mean I’m not wanting it to be perfect and I definitely don’t want it to be perfect the first time around.

There isn’t much to write about now. Not a lot going on. I took the GED back in July and I’m still waiting on my results. Its been 7 weeks since I took it so I have another week or so before I’ll find out. To this day I’m still not sure how I did. Part of me thinks I passed and part of me thinks I failed. Then again, ever since I took it I felt like maybe I passed everything except the Math…so, I really don’t know how I did and I won’t until I get my results, which I hope come soon.

This week I have been at my grandparents house helping them out. I think my grandmother is loving it so much she wants me to move in with them! Today is the first day I’ve been at home, mostly because I need the sleep and rest and beause mom has off work so if my grandparents need me/us they just have to call and mom can take me over. Which is also why I’m going to stay home during the weekend too cause dad only works half a day on Saturdays and mom doesn’t work at all on weekends.

So this past week has been pretty tiresome for me. Waking up early, plus not sleep all that great to begin with has almost done me in. However, in my tiresome state I have thought a lot about a story idea I’ve been thinking about and my recent adventures in helping my grandparents plays a roll in my story idea. I just need to get the ball rolling, some how, some way… Maybe if I come up with a title for my story it will make me want to start writing. I’m never great with organizing my ideas before I write, I’m always better with just writing and deal with the organization later.

And now… I’m falling asleep at the computer. :O

My grandmother got sick sometime after we got home from the trip to Cape Cod. She was so sick she had to be in bed and could barely get up and move around. It hit sometime after my grandfather fell and was in the hospital. She started taking antibiotics and such and was feeling better but with in the last week or two she started feeling sick again. She had a doctors appointment on Monday and that’s when she landed in the hospital. She came home Tuesday night and I think she is doing a bit better than she was but she’s still weak.

My grandfather comes home from the Nursing and Rehab center on Saturday! Just in enough time for my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary on Sunday. I told my grandmother I would come over Mon-Fri while my parents were at work to help her out for a couple weeks until my Aunt comes to help. I’m not sure what I can do but I know I can help some how. I need to make a list of things to take over there with me. I know I’m going to take the laptop and a book but I might need to take something else just in case I get bored with stuff.

Well, that’s all for now!
