Old Folks Home

I think im starting to like visiting Grandpa in the assisted living home a little too much. I wanna call it an Old Folks Home just for the fun of it. But Mom likes to correct me everytime i say it. But why would i wanna call it Assisted Living? That sounds so boring.

"Hi Im Vallie, And Welcome To This Assisted Living Home"

Vallie is Grandpa's name by the way..
Yeah he isnt just "GRANDPA" He has an actual name. Who woulda thought? (j/k)

"Hi Im Vallie, And... Well i've been livin here in this Old Folks Home for a week now"

Now that sounds funner right? Okay.. Maaaybe not, lol. But whatever.

Anyway, Not sure if you readers check out my Tweet's..... But i tweeted a few times about the OLD ASSISTED FOLKS LIVING HOME ;p

I get so much joy out of going to this place..
Im honestly thinking of either
1) Working there 2) Volunteering

I shouldnt even have to sign up for Volunteering though, I do whatever i want while im up there visiting anyway.

Im learning their names.. So that we can be more like FRIENDS when i visit :)

..So far i know Walter, Eugene, Madge, Loretta, And the Argentina Lady.. Whats her name, whats her name (asking mom, shhhh) - Oh her name is Elsie.. (or so MOM thinks. remind me to check out her bedroom name tag later, eh?)


These people are so awesome. So sweet. Im actually starting to love them ALOT.


And i think Grandpa's got a girlfriend.... You wouldnt believe how much the women like him up there at that place. The Lady i say is Grandpas girlfriend has p
Parkensons just like Grandpa... Except her's is totally out of control. It's sad.

She didnt feel good today, I seen the Ambulance come & get her..
But aside from that, Guess what she said to Grandpa?


She told him she loved him, and she said.... Wouldnt it be nice if we could just fly away together?

Aint that somethin'? lol, Even at 82 he's still a Ladies man...................


And there is Loretta.... I like Loretta.. She's a little child like to me. Not meaning IMMATURE or like a child but more like, A Young spirit. She had a stroke.. She complains that her room-mate doesnt like the AIR on... Well, today i went in her room to visit her and wow.. I know why she's complaining now.. She she's "SHE PISSES ME OFF" lolol, Now i see why.. It's really hot in her room. Feels super humid too.

Her room-mate also doesnt like to share her TV, So Dad gave her a T.v. She seems REALLY happy about it... I walked in, She was in bed watchin Maury.. lolol

She had alot of colorful drawings on her wall. Looked like she used Marker's. They were really pretty. I also let her borrow my NEW MOON :) She said she already seen Twilight, And didnt like it. lol I thought maybe she'd like New Moon better.
(probaaaaaably not. haha)

Sometimes when i go up there.. I dont wanna leave.. And i hate when they are all in their rooms.. Dinner time is the best, They are in one room at one time....

They are all like little characters from a book. I hope one day i dont forget them. But seeing as how my brain is partly gone. I might forget them one day..... I forget alot of things. I cant even remember half of my teen years. And i assure it, It's not because i was on drugs, Cause i wasnt. lol I just have bad memory loss. That's not really a good sign for my future, is it?

Anyway.. You should see Grandpa's table partners. They have assigned table partners.

Madge & Eugene is Grandpa's, There is another lady there.. But she barely sits there, I think she stays in her room....

Madge always has lipstick on. And she talks non stop. And i cant understand a thing she say's.. Instead of being rude i just giggle ;) :) And say yeahhh..

Eugene.. He had a stroke, He has a Daughter, Who still hasnt written him back yet. And a Grandson. He tells the same story every time i see him. Like a broken record. But, He's sweet.. So it doesnt get too old.

Ohh And the Argentina lady. She cannot speak or understand english. She speaks Spanish, But not the spanish we know. Argentina Language is a bit different. She speaks french too. She's an artist.

And she's super sweet. I dont know what she is saying but i know it's always something nice.
She's always smiling and laughing.. She's probably REALLY saying "This stupid american girl, her hair is scraggly, hahaha"
LOL JUST KIDDING :) Everytime i see her she say's "LEEENNDAA" "ARMOSSSSAA" ..Dad told me she's saying i am Beautiful. Which i appreciate yet it makes me sad at the same time. Im hoping she's just complimenting my spirit, Instead of my face.

She hugged me and kissed me today on my cheek. Which surprised me.
I dont know her, She doesnt know me, But she felt comfortable enough to do this.
And i felt kind enough to accept it. It didnt even feel wrong. It felt like a good human being hugging another human being.


To hug and kiss a stranger.
That's love..
That's genuine kindness and love.


I'll tell you more later.
