An Honest, Sexy Puppet is Hard to Find
My little hispanic abuelita sings “Guantanamera” every five minutes. Yo soy el hombre sincero, si?
my grandma passed away a few days ago. three weeks on life support. yet it hit me so hard. she was so close to my heart. yet as i got older i got busier, visited her less. seeing how my mother's been like, how her relationship with her had ups and downs and how terrified she was of her mother not forgiving her. how all of their petty disagreements really meant nothing in the end. eldest daughter, eldest daughter, eldest daughter. mother and daughter. grandma and granddaughter, grandma and granddaughter. seeing my mother tell everyone she's alone now, how her life revolved around her mother and she feels she has no purpose now. her brother lives abroad, i feel for him, he came home for two weeks just to watch his mother die. i wanted to leave this country for so long, for a better life ahead, my heart hurts. my mother lost both her parents, all her friends tell me i have to take care of her now. im nineteen. half the time i can barely take care of myself. my parents are getting old. their hair is all gray. my father lost his father and uncle within four months last year. my mother never cries, it was only those moments i saw her so weakened. i cant speak when my emotions get the best of me. it's like my throat is clogged. is it wrong that i cant help but remember what everyone forgets? when my paternal grandmother degraded my mother for staying with her mother, a memory brushed aside. my grandmother you are, but my grandmother she also was. i graduate college next year. i dont think im prepared to be a person. my mother saw her grandmother die and watched as her mother withered. i look through their old photo albums, all these little kids in these photographs have kids of their own now, my uncle and mom taking care of these babies who now have babies. just like me and my brother with our little cousins. how i love children. how my little cousin loves me. sometimes it stings a bit when at gatherings they mention me getting married all the time when it's not what i'll ever want. and children are never something i'd have. and i'll never be in love with a man. after all that i went through and all that i complained about my family and my parents and my brother and everything, i realise in the end it wont amount to anything but background noise even if it shaped me, and these are the same people who i used to draw heart paintings and write love poems for as a child. it's moments like these when barging through my mind is the thought that soon i'll be my mother.

Wow… I'll never underestimate grandmas again
I know this isn't my normal posting habit but I wanted to share my grandma's flower and early arrival of spring.
I wont be back home for 8 days and here's what's she's going to deal with!.
Dreaming of meadows
Budding spiral
Summer nights delights
Indoor "jungle" or eternal summer
Waiting for spring!
Unexpected winter blooms!
I can only imagine what's going to be like around Holy Week! :D
Some unsightly sunflowers.
Happy birthday, grandma❤️
Brag alert
So I am 60 and I do like video games, although I am not great at them necessarily. But I went back to Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and though it took me a week, I finally freed all the Divine Beasts (I only had one done) AND today, I beat the pants off Ganon. Whew. I am really proud of myself. I started playing Tears of the Kingdom (I am probably half way through), but I had never actually finished BOTW. I honestly didn't think I had what it took to beat it. I am one proud Grandma right now!
Day 28 of this battle: My letter for Umpe tonight, i wrote a short letter for Umpe. i tried putting humor coz i don't want her tocry while reading it. i tried to put everything i wanted to tell her but also tried not to make her worried and lonely. i hope through this short letter, i can make her happy and ease her pain. i hope my message for her will make her feel how much i wanted to be with her right now... I love you, Umpe! Always and forever. I miss you a lot too. I hope you'll feel better asap and you'll win over this battle...
Radical Change
My encounter with the trickster didn’t go as planned. I was so excited to be young again. I wanted so much to become Ashley, the head of the cheerleaders. I couldn’t wait to use tight dresses, have her nice ass, and be on action once again. On my previous life… I was ugly betty… I was certain that this time it was going to be different. Imagine my surprise when I woke inside Elijah’ body, Ashley’s boyfriend. From a grandma to a stud… not the change that I expected. However, feeling my dick, my muscles… I am certain that I will enjoy the ride.
My grandma is aggressively obsessed with wednesday addams.
