Its been an interesting week to say the least. I went back to work today and of course I knew that the guys were just going to be great. And they were. I thank God so much for their lifes. Let's see, I kept my appointment to get my hair done. Candice, my hairstylist, was great. When she asked about my week, well of course I had to tell her and she just stopped and asked, "Johanna, do you want some wine???"....hehe, so as usual, I had my glass of wine. Well then afterwards I guess I should mention that i was very relaxed and in a good mood. So who do I decide to call? yup, him. It was brief but I told him what had happend and that I was on my way to pick up my grandma. But there, we spoke. Anywho....so I picked up my grandma and took her our to eat, hehe, it was pretty fun. We were both not really craving anything, and any place I would think of taking her, the thought of the food served in those places would make me do faces! then i thought of Cafe Sevilla...uhmmmmmmm, I thought of eating jamon serrano. That sounded so fresh and light. I tell my grandma and she says that i'm gonna start making her be hungry. So yes, that was the place to go.
Well, we attempted to get there, but I couldn't find parking close enough so that my grandma didn't have to walk much. But it worked out. As I made countless attempts to find parking, my grandma say the downtown life in San Diego. She liked it. She said she had never been to downtown at night. She was just looking out the window trying to look at everything.
I ended up taking my grandma to Extraordinary Desserts. I figured that's the other place I know of that sells some-what of a jamon serrano plate. We weren't really dressed for the restaurant, but I didn't care, I was going to take my grandma there. So we get there and I show her all the dessert display and right there and then she picked the one she wanted to have after we ate.
We ordered our drinks, hehehe, wish were hilarious. I always order the kiwi lemonade, but I figured I would try something new since my grandma was there. I ordered a passion fruit drink. When they brought them, my grandma was the one to try it first, you should've seen her face! the drink was tooo sour. I tried it myself and confirmed that it was! It looked great, sort of a orange/peach color with a pink petal floating on top. Anywho so we ordered our panini's and we got to talk.
Let's just say that my grandma says that she doesn't know what I'm gonna do, but that she wants grandkids. That she mentioned to my mom that she doesn't care if I'm not married. I said WHAT? she's like, no, you can just go get fertilized! NO freakin way! I was laughing. I asked her while laughing if she really was being serious. She's like, well you're not speeding this up Johanna. Obviously I'm not going to get fertilized, but I thought it was hilarious that she thought of that.
So the rest of the night was good. We ate our panini's and then asked for dessert. Which my grandma loved. The whole time we talked briefly about my uncle. Which I had worried about before picking my grandma up. I thought to myself that we were going to go eat and the subject would come up and we would both start crying! But I'm glad that didn't happen. We talked about me and stuff and more stuff, hehe, but we laughed and had a good time.
My grandma is a strong lady. And she said it herself, that she is thanking God for the strength she feels. That its only Him giving it to her, because she knew she couldn't do this on her own. Thank you Lord. Keep my grandma in good health and in good spirit. Help us be strong as well and be of encouragment to her and the rest of the family.
And the week officially starts...
