As you drive down the main road (or the one i think that is the main road) in Edmond Oklahoma, there sits this old thrift store behind an old drug store. I remember this particular thrift store for the reason that i spent much time there. My grandma and i would venture out into the city and always find ourselves at this 2-story brick building, which you wouldnt know it was brick bc it ha ivy growing all over it. I remember when i was around 8, that this place always had something special for me. Weather i walked out with a pair of roller skates, a book that i would never read, but looked interesting, or weather it was a board game that i planned on playing, with my grandma that evening. That ivy covered building holds alot of memories. As the years have passed and we have enjoyed all the blessings God has given us, one blessing i am thankful for is my only grandmother that i have had in my life. Saying goodbye has been very hard for me. I have so many things i would like to do with her before she takes her final breathe, but i have to hold on to the memories i have of playing "Old Maid", or sewing together. She was a wonderful lady and will always be in my heart.
