Spring break is finally here. WOO! :D
So, Being the unproductive person I am, I decided to do something productive. And since I haven't really spent a whole lot of time with my grandpa lately, I decided to spend the day with him, and it was worth it. I forget how much fun it is to spend with him, minus his complaining. xD
My grandpa is 83 years old, and can still walk at least 2 miles every day. Which in fact he does--at the mall with his lady friend. xD Still, it's beyond me how he does it. To my point, you don't know when someone is going to go, and if it comes to that, you don't want to be wishing that you had spent more time with them, or just taken the time to call. Plus I really love my grandpa, and it is fun to hang out with him.
So we went to Missouri Botanical Gardens today because 1.) we went there all the time when I was little and have a lot of memories there and 2.) he really likes that place. And I don't mind. After that he took me out to lunch to an Italian restaurant called Zia's. And then we were going to go to the Zoo, but we would have had to walk really far from the closest parking place and he didn't want to do that, so we didn't. It doesn't make sense coming from a man who walks 2 miles every morning, but whatever. ^^;
Another thing I haven't mentioned yet is that my grandpa likes to talk. ;D But I love it because he always talks about how it was when he was a kid and such, so I feel like I get to know him more, and sometimes he just needs someone that will listen to him.
Even though I didn't get to sleep in, and mind you I DO like my sleep, it was a good day. :]
