So, this is pretty difficult

My grandmother is home from the hospital, but "bittersweet" is an understatement. She enjoys being home, but has to be under constant watch. My aunt, my parents and my sister work in shifts to stay with her. My grandfather doesn't hear well so wouldn't be able to tell if she was choking or stopped breathing. Wonderful.

But the day is beautiful and warm. Today is a special day for Blake. The tri-service awards ceremony at Norwich. He is getting one (possibly two) awards. The definite award comes with a sword... ooo-la-la.

I have zero excitement for my own graduation, as I left school in December. My parents want me to go and it will be nice to get a free gift and a free cap and gown that will sit in my closet for roughly thirty years. It would probably make a nice decorative throw or perhaps a matching set of potholders.
