Bones would sit, and listen to Grandma talking to her friend. “I warned her not to marry that guy, but it did no good. She went ahead and married him anyway. Now look what’s happened, just look at him.” —and then she turned, and looked at Bones. Bobby |

This can be taken two ways, but if this is the mean grandma, than well I feel bad for bones. -Juju |

It seems there are those who just don't realize the damage they can do with words. Ida |

Thanks dear Ida, I think Grandma damaged herself more with her words than she did Bones. As you may remember, Bones was/is perfect in every way. Father was a dangerous and violent man. He never hurt me. He just had a problem with guns. He was a war hero, and I loved him. Love Bobby [This message has been edited by Robert E. Jordan (03-20-2009 11:01 AM).] |

Someone being a little too critical of Bones' mother in front of him. People can sure be cruel sometimes. Eric |

Thanks Eric, Yes, you have that right. Grandma and I never got on very well I'm afraid. She was always ragging on Mom and me. Bobby |

Some grandma's don't know when to keep quiet. |

Thanks dear Kacy, Yes, Grandma was a terrible gossip, and very self righteous. Love Bobby |
