Hello everyone, East Side Angie is here again. I notice I am not getting many readers, hopefully I can change this over time. Anyway, after my last blog post I left Manhattan and travelled upstate with my mom to visit my grandma. Things didn't go very well between the two, to say the least. My grandma is one of those people who believes in the saying "those who can't do, teach" You've heard it right? We all have. Why cant my grandma and mom be like those two? ---->
So as you can imagine, she doesn't approve of my sister studying to be a teacher. She had been drinking a lot of cherry, was a bit drunk and blurted out her feelings to my mom, who knew these feelings, but never heard them being said out loud. Least to say, an argument insued between mother and daughter. It even lead to my mom critizing her mother on how she had raised her! I know right? Talk about over the top. Grandma was very heart by this. She told us that she wanted us to leave straight away. As you can imagine I was very uncomfortable during this whole conversation to say the least.
As my mother left to go into the car, Grandma called me back for a second and told me to tell my mom she didn't want to see her for a long time. I guess there is another saying thats wrong, you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family, yes it is true, but as for my grandmother, shes certainly choosing the family members who she wants to stay away from her.
I know I should be more upset over this, but they fight a lot, I know they will make up...At least I think so. Anyway must go now.
