My Grandma passed on Saturday, she made it to the ripe old age of 94. She dealt with various health issues over the years and beat quite a few; but recent ones along with her age is probably what finally overcame her. She did quite a lot over her long life and traveled to and lived in many places. She ran a gas station and a diner, owned a bar, raised various livestock; and really didn't start slowing down til about 10-15 years ago and even then really didn't slow down too much. She was a self-described ornery woman. When asked how old she was, and people would almost always be surprised at the answer, the people would then ask how she managed to get to that age, Grandma would answer "Pure Orneriness". She was strong-willed but always tried to be friendly unless given a reason not to be as well and being good-humored and could be pretty quick with a laugh. She was never one to give up, but I suppose age finally caught up with her. I'll still be lurking around here as I always

Hi everyone! Yeah I'm still around, though I mostly just lurk these days. Had another birthday, so managed to make it another year ;P heh Mostly quiet day; except for when I went to the store and saw what looked like a fender-bender with an ambulance nearby on one road, then had two police cars and a fire truck with sirens going fly by me going the opposite way on another road. But after that got home and had pizza and cake. Anyway, I hope that everyone is doing okay ^_^

Hello again everyone, it's been a while. So the birthday has come around yet again, though this time the biggest change is that I'm living in a new place. Moved from the deserts of Nevada to the coast of Oregon, a town called Coos Bay to be exact. It's pretty nice. The weather is a lot more temperate, none of the highs and lows that Nevada had, though it's a lot wetter since it's right on the coast. Anyway, I hope everyone is doing okay and hope to talk to you all more soon.
