RE: Mischief Making Granny

in #life7 years ago

they were the ones that came to mind. Your comment just brought one to mind as well. It was a very stormy winter afternoon and the grandparents were visiting.

Grandpa was in the early stages of Alzheimer's and once away from his chair for a day or two was very anxious to get back to it. So, he had insisted they were going home and they were taking the bus since mom didn't want to drive them in that weather. So, we get into the car and head for the bus station a few miles away.

As we're driving up a railroad overpass, the car spun out on the ice and luckily came to a stop upright and facing back the way we'd come. Everyone in the car was collecting our nerves back, most of all the driver, and we heard this calm, placid voice from the front seat say, "Maybe we should just go back to the house."

Grandpa didn't argue.

Sort:  

we already turned so...
she must've been a delight to converse with.

she was, she had a very quiet calm voice and an interesting use of the English language.
