| It's another Thanksgiving. They used to be always the same. But my grandparents are getting older now, getting very old, and it shows. Grandpa Charlie really can't hear so well, and both he and Grandma Kay move much slower than they used to. And the tiniest details have become vastly important. I mentioned that observation to my father and he said that it's probably because it's all they get to control now, the little things. It's sad to watch my grandparents age so much. But, so goes the world. As I grow older, so must they, and I really wouldn't want to stop the earth from turning or time from passing. So it's another Thanksgiving, the second one in the Glen Eddy apartment where I still find it hard to believe that they actually live, that the house on Dean St. that was so much theirs is sold and these two-and-a-half rooms are going to be home for the rest of their lives. But it's really true, and the way they are now I know they couldn't manage their house. So it's good they moved when they did. But I miss the old traditions. | |
