I suppose I was about three when this photo was taken, judging by the ancient computer in the background. Grandpa used that thing until I was about five, and old enough to understand that his technology was a little outdated.
Though I can't put an exact year on this photograph, I can for sure say that it was Christmas- One of the years that my mom was still working. I know that for a fact because of the chair, we sold it a month after she lost her job.
My grandpa was in better health then. His face isn't as thin as it was only a year ago, so I guess that he was still up and about, and so was my grandma, the women who had made the brightly colored blanket that was strown over the back of the recliner. I still have that blanket. Somewhere, packed into a box- I'll go and look for it later.
I was little, then, still made fun of for my noodle-like arms. I was too young and innocent to know that my grandfather was actually a very harsh man. I inherited my inpatient qualities from him. I miss him, in all honesty. The him that would eat the cookies that we left out for Santa, and leave a few hairs from his beard for us to find.
I miss the innocence of then. -

Day Two: You can take only three memories with you into the next life. What are they?
-I don't know why, but my grandma's pumpkin bread always comes to mind when I think about memories. I don't know what exactly about them I'd want to remember. Her making them, or their taste. I love both parts equally. She used these tin cans, with golden-colored insides to bake them. They were special, we can't find them anymore. Anyways, I remember her mixing the batter from scratch- Butter, I think, and eggs, and maybe brown sugar. I don't really recall that. I've looked for the recipe, trust me, but it's pretty hard to find. She was the only one who made them, and I'm afraid they may have died with her.
Or, maybe the taste. The warmth, covered in a layer of butter- Yeah, it was best with butter on top for sure. I remember taking them to school with me for my fourth grade Christmas party. Everyone loved them.
-Ashley.
I have never, nor will I ever meet someone as amazing as her. She's been different lately, and I find myself growing farther away from her than I would have ever liked to, but I still love her, and everything she stands for. I don't think she cares for me as much as she used to, she's started ignoring me and brushing off what I have to say. But I can't help but want to remember her. She is pretty much the only person in this town I would care to remember.
-February 13.
I don't want myself to remember the reason, but I want this date burned into the back of my mind like a red flag that pops up when I'm trying to sleep. I want it to be the date that I circle in red for no reason at all, other than to try to remember. I just want it to be there.
