not to resort to emotional blackmail but this might be the last game I'm ever able to go to with my grandad so I'd really like the gas to win
#the next match i'll be able to take him to will be over christmas and putting aside the cold and his own health he won't go if my nans not#well and there's a good chance she will be very unwell by then#ignore the fact that i've only ever been to one game with my grandad before

sometimes i think about the fact my grandparents literally overnight just cut us off and im like. how did u even do that. does it torment you
#eeaao's 'how did you let me go so easily' moment. like i dont let myself even THINK about this too often#bc i immediately beat myself back with the 'if it's hard for you then imagine how hard it is for mum. her PARENTS cut her off'#but like. idk. my nan i couldn't give less of a shit about which is something i always find so interesting#bc even as a child with NO basis for it or any understanding of her behaviour both past and present i still wasn't Comfortable around her#like children are smart actually. i just Knew her vibes were off and i Knew my mum was weird when she was around#like i truly dont think i ever loved my nan even when she was a very frequent part of my life#but my grandad? i ADORED him. id see him multiple times a week and he's the kindest man ive ever met#and hannah what i told you about my mum saying certain people have magnetic auras THAT WAS ABOUT HIM#like i cant actually put into words what it was about him but people just wanted to know him and spend time with him#but he was weak and let my nan walk all over him and when push came to shove he chose her and now ive not spoken to him in 3 years#& i KNOW he loved me. he thought the world of me like it's a bitter unspoken thing between me & my sister that we KNOW i was his favourite#he used to buy me egg butties at agricultural shows when my mum said no and specifically ask for two eggs#he used to sit and eat his soup with me when he came over to do work at the house#he used to play with me. he used to smile all the time. i can so clearly hear the way he'd go ''iya [my name]' with his proper rural accent#or how he'd tell anyone who would listen 'she's tough as old boots that one'#and i could make him laugh like NO ONE else could and he'd light up and go 'give over' and he genuinely enjoyed my company#i KNOW HE DID. and i havent spoken to him in 3 years. he'll be dead soon#and i cant talk to my mum about it bc it's her DAD it is so much worse for her and i cant talk to my sister about it#bc she wasn't close with him like i was and she just shuts the conversation down and those are the only two people#who know my grandad and know what he meant to me so im just here like. he literally stopped speaking to me overnight#i stopped hearing from him i stopped meeting up with him im so so angry with him the love is still there i dont know where to put it now#why couldnt he stay. why did he pick her when she's a loveless void of inhumanity. why werent we enough#hella goes home#my grandparents on my dad's side are also not in the picture funnily enough but idgaf about them. she got that grandparentless swag

emotional detachment is so weird like. i know i should be sad about something. and i AM sad about it. i just... don't have the physical reactions to it? or the actual feeling of being sad? idek how to explain it im sad and i know im sad but it doesn't feel like im sad bc im just so detached from everything??
#but yeah#my nan just passed away#so things are gonna be hard for a while#i just.. don't feel sad even though i am sad??#anyway i love you nanny and ill miss you#grandad will be there to meet you up in heaven#personal#vent#sort of

me: hi grandad! how are you doi-
my grandad, who's joined the trend among almost all my grandparents of talking about nothing but their own mortality: i just looked at myself in the mirror. i look like my dad just after he died
me:
#i visited my nan on thursday and gave her her birthday presents. literally the first thing she said was#'i doubt i'll make it to my birthday but thank you'. CAN WE PLEASE HAVE SOME HOPE AND WHIMSY????#just so you all know none of my grandparents are 90 or older#ok to reblog ig#family#grandad#death#mortality#meme#tumblr meme#beep beep gets personal#personal

My grandfather has been here 20 minutes and he’s already talking about his impending death and the smoke alarm has gone off twice while dad cooks the roast.
Exactly as my family Christmas is supposed to be.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all the little friends in my phone <3
#genuinely wouldn’t have it any other way#the roast is gonna be so fucking good#dad offered grandad a coffee and my Nan said better take up the other before you disappear and then couldn’t find the end of her sentence#so I supplied ‘off this mortal coil’ because I am hilarious#fairy is rambling#dec 2023

#Saint Nick#saint nicholas#Saint Nick night#German traditions#Saint Nicholas night#Saint Nick night Germany#German Saint Nick nifht#it should be mentioned that we don’t live in germany which is why I didn’t know#my grandads family moved her when he was small#but my mum grew up with her dads family speaking German and doing German traditions with her#she used to make German cookies with her nan

I fucking KNEW when i started listening to frankie laine that one day my dad was gonna walk ip and say "you have my dads taste in music" even though ive never heard him say anything about granddad liking frankie laine. Hey guess what he just did?
#he was like 'ur grand dads no 2 musician after elvis was frankie laine. yeah.'#me op#every year on grandads death anniversary my dad comments on how he died the same day as elvis (not same year. the same DATE more like)#and that 'it was probably the day he wanted to go on' okay.#nan said i could go through his old western stuff [devious emoji]#i just today bought another dee brown book. i fucking GARENTEEE. itll be in his collection ♡

Why would I take some other families last name when my family’s last name is so cute and means so much to me?
Like I’m ever gunna have a name meaning cuter than Jade Stone Apple Orchard lmao
#my nan and grandads last name is going nowhere#if I ever have kids you can bet your last apple that they’ll be having my family name too

I want get into clockmaking so that I can make an immensely loud clock
#make my grandad happy#he used to make clocks#he made so many clocks#my nans house was full of them#i knew nothing about him but his clocks#surrounded by craftmanship#that my nan did not appreciate#ghosts of a man i wish i knew#he died before i was born#i inherited his lathe#it shall make clocks again

#wh. um. fuck.#dad's told me about my nan's will#and uh.#the money goes first to my grandad's looking after obviously#but um once he's not around (in a year or two dad says‚ with his alzheimers)#then it's split between the family in percentages ive forgotten - including my mum‚ which is lovely#but basically in two/three years. i could have enough money to buy my own place.#ive no idea what my credit rating looks like in the least but i guess i have that amount of time to find out and sort it out#i imagine it's not very good - i don't have a credit card or anything like that but i haven't used my overdraft since i was at uni#but dad says i could get 60 grand! so if i buy somewhere with 60k up front and the rest as mortgage? right?#i have no clue whatsoever how to do all that stuff or even like how much furniture costs or how to choose a mattress or anything#ive never had anything like that new#so um. yeah. that's. something#i don't know what to do with it or anything. but it's a thing.#for now i need to go back and find a flat my own cs ive got like 6 weeks now to move from this place#and i have to ring the estate agent landlord people to find out if i can just move upstairs or what. cs that'd be my first choice honestly#but um. my brains gone to mush#i knew my grandparents were well-off but i didn't know it was by that much#or that id get such a high percentage - tho that's half what my dad's getting so i guess that makes sense#he says he's gonna buy a boat and go to south america#which sounds bonkers honestly like he's not a sailor whatsoever#but i guess he's a lot more sensible now he's been sober a year than he ever was when i was a kid
