My Favorite Elderly

While making several trips this past year to see my grandparents in Ottawa, these are some observations and funny points that I've noted.  

So basically, when visiting The elderly, you end repeating yourself 2-3 times... EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. you talk. Just need to be louder and talk slower with each repeat. This is my fault though. I should really know better.

My Poppa on my relationship status (which had been status: SINGLE for many years): (paraphrasing because I was laughing and driving so I couldn't record or take notes) "There is no problem staying single, but you have to look out for your future. You need to find an old guy with lots of money and then when he dies off in a few years, you'll be set..." #RelationshipGoals

Nanny: *Gasp* "I have a colonoscopy soon. I will be all pooped out." 

Nanny logic:

My great Uncle Bob gave me some syrup he made. It's in a large bottle, too big for carry-on when flying home. I generally don't check my bag and have a carry on only. Nanny gets out a piece of paper and tape and handwrites a note on it "Maple Syrup 2016". She's now convicted I'll be able to bring it through security even though it's over the 100ml limit.

After Nanny and I got home from the salon:

Nan: Recalling the visit, with a surprised look on her face "... that man went into the waxing area!"

Me: "Yes. He got his brows waxed..."

Nan: "Oh I thought maybe he got his balls waxed."

Me: 😳... 😂😂😂 baaahahah!

Nanny and I were at the pharmacy, she points to a bunch of boxes, asking what they were... "Those are condoms Nan..." "Oh! Haha! *embarassed*... I never used them." What a different time eh? 

Nanny removed sandals... Horrible smell occurs. She's still trying to convince Poppa and I that it is a smell from outside. It's not. It's really not... Dear god woman!

When you're old, farting and burping is fair game at any time. It's like you're a baby all over again... you're an old geezer now, it's acceptable to just let 'er rip whenever. Ya know, cuz you're all old and shit. It's like a free pass. Alrighty then. 

After watching a Cialis commercial, poppa joked around and told us about a game nanny and him play... Where they hold it up and see what way it falls. I laughed and laughed. Then stopped because I didn't want to think about that anymore. Eeek.

Love them to bits. Wished they lived closer. ❤️
