MeandMarj: Thanksgiving

Me: Grandmother, I'll go grocery shopping for Thanksgiving.
Grandmother: Okay, I'll give you money.
Me: Oh no, Grandmother don't worry about that!
Grandmother: What!?! You have so much money!?!
Me: Okay, I'll take your money. 😀


Today, November 23, 2015, my grandmother Marjorie Corle left this earth for a better place. I am so lucky to have had her as my grandmother and roommate. :) Thank you for providing material for this blog!

MeandMarj: My 15-year-old son can cook better than this!

Grandmother misses her chef! At Vinson Hall for dinner....

Grandmother: My 15-year-old son can cook better than this!

(P.S. Dad is 70!)

MeandMarj: We all scream for ice cream!

After not saying a word at dinner, when dessert arrives...

Grandmother: I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

Grandmother sure does love her ice cream!

MeandMarj: Whoever decorated this house!

(At Vinson Hall skilled nursing home)

Grandmother: Whoever decorated this house sure liked brown!

Alison: They sure did! Not like your pink living room and yellow kitchen!

MeandMarj: It's shocking!

Grandmother: Where are you going?
Alison: 14th Street.
Grandmother: Not like that.
Alison: Why not?
Grandmother: It's shocking!

MeandMarj: You can't fit marriage in a nutshell.

Alison: Tell us about marriage in a nutshell!
Grandmother: You can't fit marriage in a nutshell.

MeandMarj: That won't do.

Alison: Grandmother, why don't you come visit me in Cleveland?
Grandmother: I don't know how to get there.
Alison: I bet Freddy will drive you.
Grandmother: Freddy...will you drive me to Cleveland?
Freddy: Yeah, I'll drive you to Cleveland, you can live with Alison.
Grandmother: Yeah, I can live with you Alison!
Alison: That sounds great. The only thing is we don't have a fireplace and we have one bedroom.
Grandmother: Well, that won't do.
Alison: Okay, I'll let you know when we have more space.
Grandmother: Let me know when you have a bigger apartment.
