Well all things considering, attending my grandfather's funeral could have gone better. As short as it was it was a moving moment, the entire church was filled with people to give their final best wishes. Andrew was completely slient during the serives yet poor Jackie couldn't keep from crying...kind of strange seeing how neither of them knew my grandfather that much. I knew Red was not completely comfortable with being there given his mixed feeling against my grandfather, but he stay with me through it all, being my big strong loving shoulder for me to cry on. God I love he so much.

i couldn't believe what happen during the wake though. Some how my old boyfriend heard about the funeral, and decided to crash the party. Turns out my grandfather liked him very much and the two of them kept in touch even after we broke up, and can you believe that the SOB actually had the nerve to hit on me, like I was some kind of rebound chick. I swear I never felt so angry in my life. I told him that I was married and much happier, but he just wouldn't listen. Finally I slapped him across the face and told him to leave. (not kindly of course) Before I knew it he rammed his fist against my face, knocking me to the floor and kicked me in the side.

Not one of his smartest choice, what with my father, two uncles (both of which are marine) my brother (a member of the SWAT) several cousin (collage foot players) my sister (worst of the bunch) and my husband (who has a temper you would not believe). The next thing I hear are several hard blows, wood cracking, and the very loud sound of a window shattering. Shortly afterward, I see Red holding me up, his strong arms held me close, my bossom pressing against his chest. Is only at those moments where I fell the most safest and more in love with Red.

I know that I've said this before, but I feel truly lucky to have found Red, he's one in a million, he does have his faults but I can live with it and his love and understanding toward me more than makes up for them. So no matter what my grandfather may have said about him, I know what his true worth is, and nothing will ever change that.
