Time, Family, and a Wedding

So, the movie thing with the coworker was a date. I figured it was when I got there. I mean, I could just feel that it was a date, but the big tip off was when he asked me after the movie if he could take me out again. Let's just say that there were butterflies fluttering in my stomach when I saw the text.

 Of course I said sure, I mean we couldn't really talk much during the movie so another date is in order. We have been texting and figuring out if and when we can next see each other, there were a couple times we tried but each time so far has fallen through, but with both our work schedules that seems to be expected. It is kind of crazy to try to find time to see him, hang with friends and still get enough time to do the necessities in life like sleep, shower, and do my laundry.

Just last night we found that the only time that we could talk on the phone was right before I was going to bed, at 1o'clock in the morning. We talked for so long that his phone died and and mine almost did. When I looked at the the clock, I saw that it was way passed 2 o'clock. Way passed my bed time, but well worth it.

This morning I went to visit an older couple that are like my second parents to see their new puppy. She is a black pug and her name is Ruby.
 I love pugs so much, and she is just the cutest little thing that I ever did see, maybe.
However, my time was cut short with her because my mom and I had to go see my grandpa.

First off, I have to confess that my grandfather is quite ill and the amount of time has left on earth is wearing thin. So the man that I went to see, was just a shadow of the man that he once was. He has lost most of his weight from chemo for his Leukemia and the blood infection that he once had. When we got there, we found him just looking at his garden.

Mind you, he didn't do anything in his garden yet this year. My grandpa joked a couple of days ago that his planter was amazing, that all he had to do was tell my uncle what to do and he would do it. Now wouldn't it be nice? He seemed content to just look at the nice garden and think of the crops to come.

After my mom and I dropped off soup for my grandpa, we headed back home to pack up the car and head out of town for a friend of the family wedding which basically translates into family with my family. It seems my family is is very huge on the family thing whether it be blood or chosen, it is cherished like no other.

As I wait for the time to get closer to the wedding I am very happy to say that I am enjoying this wifi in the hotel a little too much. Now if only I had it at my house... at least I have internet.
