Well, 'perfect' end to a 'perfect' day.

Hey all! Yeah, still kicking and such, I've been meaning to write a different journal, but am behind on several things I've been trying to sort out lately, so I haven't really written it out yet, sorry. Even if it dates back a month at this point now... no news really about writing or whatever.
Well, today kinda sucked. I had a dentist appointment, which while it went well, fluoride made me sick for most part of the evening (even though I’m not supposed to have gotten it for years now) and during dinner with family at Cracker Barrel. Was lucky I didn’t have to puke at any time, even though I worried it would happen. I got better before I got home, but got tired and low Diabetes blood sugar eventually, when I was high before. And THEN, to top it all off, recently I learned my grandmother passed... after weeks of being in the hospital initially for a broken arm and then other things happening while being back and forth between therapy and the hospital, she passed away tonight due to a heart attack, even if she was 84 and gonna go someday.
Starting to remember some of the fond memories I shared with her. As simple as the things were: be it playing bingo/other games; watching TV; or just sharing a meal; they truly were the best memories I could ask for with her... she will be missed by me and her children, no doubt. And hoping I can also see her at the funeral, one last time...
Also, on a more unrelated note, less than a week will mark 5 years since the creation of this current account of mine! Wow, 5 years and only 4 submissions... heh, I would've written/would write a poem about my feelings for grandma, but not really in a creative mood atm and it probably wouldn't be so great anyways. And the same day will mark a dozen years since the September 11th attacks on my fair US nation. Man, seems like it was a long time ago, when I was young and maybe heard the news, even if I don't think I was aware what was said at the time, where I was when I heard it as I recall. And also, a month till my birthday! This year I should be getting more than the last few, with how I've waited unintentionally this long to get certain games that I've wanted for a while, but I wouldn't mind something else from those who wanna.
