...is turning 90 in 1 week and she's awesome, I love her to bits. She's still living on her own despite various broken bones and heartattacks in the past year but her hearing is a thing of the past. She's got 2 hearingaids but still... it can be a struggle to have a 2way conversation.
I'd just like to share something that I find hilarious as well as sweet and a bit sad. A weird combination but it works. The conversation took place yesterday when I was painting her house (or a bit of it) and I was looking for the new paintbrushes that I'd misplaced somewhere...
Me (fairly loud): Have you seen the new paintbrushes, farmor*?
Farmor: hmmm??
Me (very loud): HAVE YOU SEEN THE PAINTBRUSHES?
Farmor: What? Have you bought catfood?
Me: ??!!

Bless her.
I still can't find the paintbrushes...
* Farmor is the Swedish word for paternal grandmother
