wednesday: mum, Kelso and me are of to gran. here new tv is arriving and she's scared to let people in the house when she's allone. in the morning her dumbass cleaner was there too.. she's such an idiotic suck up blergh! anyway we had lunch (cleaner was already gone then) and the BCC men arrived YAY. well the fridge was allright but the TV died while one of the man where installing it. (I have to say that the whole time I was playing with Kelso in another room) so the new TV went back but the old one was already in there van. so when I came out of the room there was a new fridge and no TV. I asked gran why she didn't ask them to leave the old one behind... but both of them whern't that smart lol. so my TV addicted gran is without a TV for almost 2 day's. gran asked us to eat Chinese food with her, so we ended up spending the whole day there.. wich was nice. at night (well arround 8:30) when we got home again I cleaned the whole place where the oven used to stand (we moved it a bit) so the new one would be at a nice clean spot.
thursday: we where the first! so at 9:00 we had our brand new stove. (like I said pic's will be up later) arround 10:00 gran came for a coffee and checked out the new stove. she's still TV-less but she made a jigsaw puzzle and sat outside cause the weather was so nice. this afternoon I went to the adress where I normally go to fridaymorning. but where in the hospital tomorrow so I have to go there today.. it's hot and stuffy outside so I don't really like cleaning a house right now.
friday: arround 10:30 we went off to the hospital. were we where right on time, so the waiting game begins. but we both thought that mum needed to get eyedrops, it was just a little convo so we where out of there really really fast. so after that we went to the BCC (where gran got her TV from) cause she needed a scartdevider. so we went there, bought that went to another store to get some sanwiches for lunch (at gran's) and rushed of to her. cause the BBC-men should be there between 11:30 - 1:30 and without that wire it would all go wrong. mum went to gran's right away while I brought my bike home and grabbed the shopping bag (we where gonna do our groceries after gran's TV would arrive). when I got home I was so warm I made my hair wet and drank some glasses of water... it's such a weird weather out there...
friday afternoon: back at gran's I ate my sandwich and the TV-men arrived. TV was placed and the dvdplayer and videorecorder (yes VIDEO) where connected. now gran has to switch between 2 buttons for TV, DVD and video (yes VIDEO). it's the only way in this techno world that gran hates. anyway.. the men left and we figured out gran only had channel 1... weird ey? I told gran to call the provider and the'll fix it. gran (who was mad cause she couln't understand the buttons) snapped at us and said she didn't call. I said okay, but mum told me to call. man on the phone fixed it within 5 minutes. problem 1 solved! the channels where the second problem. with our digi-tv-box it's real easy to madke a favourite list, but gran's is a horror show. we asked gran to make a list with the channel order. she had half on there and a German channel wich she never watches. so here's the situation: I'm so pissed of she kept removing the digibox, so the favourite list was gone. gran got nervous and pissed of that the list she made was crap and mum was annoyed.
after a lot of trying (and cursing) we finally had her stupid channels in order.... finally!
saturday: I bought a little cabinet with glass doors for my nailpolish. so I was on the floor getting it together. gran was visiting and complaining that she didn't understood the buttons. further everything was fine, untill..
(cursing: in Holland there's a lot of cursing with deseases, also the word Cancer.. but cause my mum's mum, my real gran died of that while mum was still young we never ever use that word as a curse. we wouln't anyway.. but it's an extra heavy word because of that)
gran said I cursed to much, I was surpriced cause my granny can curse like a sailor lol. then she went on saying I even cursed with cancer. I said I would never do that bacause of the history. then gran totally snapped and said she heard it and I was a liar blablabla. I just stood up and went to my room, stupid woman knows better and I'm not gonna stand there as she calls me a liar. it didn't took long before I heard someone storm out of the house.
turns out when I went away gran screamed at mum that she should have ordered me to stay and be nice to her (gran), mum said she was being an idiot and that I could leave if I wanted to. thats twhen gran stomed out. she's mad at us, she blames us that she has to use her TV-digi-box. that she has to push a button to go from TV to DVD or video (yes VIDEO). her sister said she had to go TV shopping with her so she would have gotten a good one.. but it wouln't have mattered. the digibox is the present, but try explaining that to someone who keeps holding on to the past.
