Aunt: did you make yourself some oatmeal
Babcia: (yells at 89- Y R U asking me?
Me: can you answer her?
Babcia: i don’t eat this early #cranky#oldlady#1933Karen
Then my mom drove over for lunch - and after we both complained in the tard about #lifewithbabcia — she wanted to walk over an say hi! Because „shes CNN and someone - around here - will tell her i was here...
Sure enuf later that afternoon a CNN reporter (the neighbor) saw us
Its my birthday - grandma was the 1st phone call with #birthdaywishes
„Hav a great day, &since I have you on the phone here are all the reasons I dont wanna go to PT & this antibiotuc is terrible for my stomach & the anti depressant will lwer my salt levels again #lifewithbabcia
#babcia calls 2 mins after dropping her off...
this morning, my husband bought a box of cherry turnovers.
“Do you have my apple turnovers, bakery lady didn’t pack them for me, but don’t bring them here, if you have them just leave them at your house, I don’t need them.” Prt/1
Its #minuteslater & my 8 yo daughter asks for her favorite sandwich: #polishryebread ham cheese “the good mustard” & pickles
This is why I do it... at #babciashouse during childhood everyday after school Polish bread & butter was waiting for me.

“Babcia...
Babcia...
Excuse me babcia...
i’m going to have my son walk over -9 houses- & drop them off for you.”
“ no no no, let the kids eat them, I’m glad she gave it to you and she didn’t forget it. I don’t like when they take my money and don’t give me my turnovers.” Prt/2
Dropped off #grandma after doctors visit & her #bakery pitstop. “Oh homey what would I do without you”
“You have 4-kids, everyone does something for you: older son 65yo walks the #dobermans your younger son 61 yo bought, that you cant walk because your 87.”
Ive decided I have to take notes on stuff my babcia says. She survived WWII, last of her generation thats alive, crazy family stories (oh, boy, they should be in twitter...)
#documenting because I cant remember all the crazy comments in #lifewithbabcia#lifewithmypolishgrandma
