I worked at a retirement home, and it was basically high school. There was a cool table. It was the biggest and only round table in the dining room. There was one woman who dated tons of men, and the women all hated her and were jealous. Meanwhile they’re all 75+. Nothing changes 😂
Oh so true. I worked at the Ohio Bureau of Vital Statistics, everyone in my department was 70+, they talked crap about eachother, what they wore to church, if they showed up late for church, eachother's hair.
Ex nurse from Germany here, our elderly are EXACTLY the same 😂 I had this one guy who was still going out to the shops by himself. We later found out he was smuggeling alcohol and cigarettes to everyone who couldn't go out on their own :D I stumbled upon 5 empty vodka bottles while cleaning a lady's room and turns out those two had a thing going and regularly got drunk together in secret 😂😂😂
My great grandma found out her husband was skirting around, but when his coworker told her that he’d said, “ As long as I keep one in her lap & one in the oven, she doesn’t have anything to complain about” that was it. She took his paycheck & booked a train from California back to Oklahoma with 5 kids. She also refused to sign divorce papers, so when that pos died, SHE got his pension & not the woman he’d been living with for a decade. 😂 So proud of this epically strong woman!
@@Stellarstray51 I know. It's been like a series of bots across creators, cuz I've seen the exact same comment on other RUclipsrs vids I follow. And it's the same thing every time and in the middle of a thread like randomly, and over and over again. Idk if this is the 2.0 version of reply girls from the early years of youtube? Seems like it.
My grandma is 89 and she is also really petty. I was arguing with my dad and he told me that I don’t respect and love him. My grandma intervened “ How would she know how to respect and love you when you were too busy all her childhood and you were never with her?” I swear by her looks if she had a mic she would drop it 🤣
This is one of my favorite stories of my grandma. It was a few days before she passed away, and she had dementia so she really didn't know who we were. My dad was sitting next to her bed, holding her hand, and he asked her, "mom, do you know who I am?" She just turns her head, opens one eye and goes, "yeah, you're a pain in the ass" then goes back to sleep. We all started laughing so hard, the room went from sad and somber to lively with that one comment. She didn't say much else after that, and passed away a few days later. Famous last words granny!
According to my parents, my great grandmother had one of the pettiest moments I've ever heard: She lived in NYC with her husband and two of her adult children were staying with her for the holidays. My great grandfather still worked and there was a snowstorm, so my great grandmother and the two adults dug out a spot for him to park in when he got home. Shortly afterwards, a man takes said spot from them. They try to explain the situation but he rudely ignores them and says something like I don't give a crap. As soon as he is in, my great grandmother simply says, "Get the shovel". With her at the lead, she and her kids dug the neighbor's car back in with all the snow they dug out. They made sure the car was buried deep in the snow. She then went inside, got some water, and poured it all over the car. When she was done, she left it to freeze overnight, creating a nice, thick ice/snow barrier around the car. The next day, the neighbor goes to leave and sees his car covered in ice and snow. My great grandmother was there watching and waving to him from inside her apartment, a cup of hot coffee in her hands. Apparently, it took hours for him to figure out how to free his car.
I think maybe the story has changed over the years of being told, because pouring water on the situation would take days to undo. Unless he got it towed to a heated garage, it could take until Spring! She should have poured the water first to seal th doors, then end with a nice misting. That would take till Summer! Hope hubby was proud of her! She Is a Great grandma!
I love that rule breaking Grandma! I got a lump in my throat because of how much she reminds me of my aunt, my mom's sister, who loved to annoy my rather propper mom by doing and saying whatever the hell she wanted. She outlived 4 husbands. Mom said she just wore them out. My aunt was named "Earline", but everyone called her "Erkie". I was in my 20s when one of my boyfriends met her and just fell in love with her funny antics and outrageous flirting. He heard me call her "Aunt Erkie", and he started laughing. He said, "That nickname is PERFECT! How long has your family been calling her Anarchy?" Then it was our time to laugh. My brother and I had been saying "Aunt Erkie" with a Southern drawl since we were toddlers, but until that moment didn't realize that, indeed, we were saying "Anarchy"!
Just turned 72. Age is what you make of it. Started skydiving and downhill skiing in my 40s. Finally learned to skateboard (thanks to my grandsons) in my 50s. In my early 60s I went to Africa for the first time (by myself) and went multiple times, living in a rasta fishing village and learning to drum. Now in my 70s, I've discovered an amazing Chinese rocker who only performs in China (Hua Chenyu) and have booked hotels in China for his annual Mars Concert. Law of attraction....believe that you're still young and can do whatever you want and that's how you can live your life! PS Started working again full time at 71.
My grandmother was 89 when she died. The morning before, she dug up all the dandelions in her yard and bagged them for the trash. I spoke to her that evening and she'd fixed a good dinner and the neighbor had brought her strawberry shortcake. She sat in her chair and watched TV and peacefully passed away. She still cleaned out her own gutters and sewed and quilted. She was awesome. My mother is now 89 and while she's living in assisted living she's quite sharp.
my ex husband's grandmother was also like this up until she had gotten bit by a brown recluse. his sister says that wasn't what changed things, but it was. she had healed but it had done enough damage that she had to have her foot amputated because she's diabetic and they don't do well with injuries, especially later in life. but up until that moment, she was constantly on the move. cooking, cleaning, gardening, taking care of her many grandbabies and great grandbabies. everyone would tell her to slow down or take a break and she'd always tell them "i'll rest when i'm gone."
My great grandmother, actually still around surprisingly and I'm the youngest of my siblings and almost 20 and my parents started having us around their 20s to 30s keep that in mind- she's 100 and counting and while she's starting to lose memory unfortunately due to age she was the most badass grandma ever. She used to ride motorcycles just a few years back though that's too dangerous now with memory loss. She would make me and my siblings hand made quilted pillows, she let us use the laundry shoot to play with by tossing objects through it and racing to get to it in the basement. Absolute gem of a great-grandmother. Love you Grandma Ruby!
One of my favorite quotes from my grandma: "Life is the darnest thing! You spend years training babies to get out of diapers, then, before you know it, you end up right back in them yourself." Love you Grandma!
Reflecting on the story, as my grandma told it, I'm pretty sure she made a lifetime commitment out of sheer pettiness. See, she was dating this guy who had to go down to Texas for some trip or something and he didn't take her with him, which she was peeved about. So her friend invited her to a double date w/ like Bob and James or w/e. They went dancing or something one weekend and my grandma was paired up w/ Bob while her friends was paired up w/ James. They had a good time, so her friend invited her out w/ the same guys the next weekend--but her friend and Bob got sick and couldn't go. So my grandma just went out with this James guy. James then did the most 1940's thing and proposed to my grandma on their second (technically kind of their first) date. AND HE DIDN'T EVEN GET HER NAME RIGHT. He tried SO HARD to see what her ID bracelet said, but STILL got it wrong and proposed to her w/ the wrong name. But she was still pissed at her boyfriend, so grandma was like, "lol sure." James was leaving for California the next day and she knew she'd never see him again so whatever. BUT NAH BITCH. James came back two weeks later w/ his car to drive her down to California to meet his parents. And my grandma was just like..."lol sure." SHE NEVER EVEN BROKE UP W/ HER BOYFRIEND SHE JUST GOT ENGAGED TO THIS RANDOM FUCKING DUDE WHILE HER BF WAS OUT OF TOWN B/C SHE WAS MAD HE DIDN'T TAKE HER WITH HIM???? SHE NEVER ELABORATED ON THIS POINT I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HIS NAME WAS Anyway, that's the story of how my grandparents met. My mom, her sisters, all of us grandkids, and all the great grandkids literally only exist b/c grandma woke up one day and chose petty.
During the pandemic I had these lovely grannies for house calls and some of them were SO feisty and petty, it was delightful. My favorite one snuck a bottle of Bailey's and drank it whole with another two at the senior center. They got the SUGAHS for weeks and I had to play serious but she was a blast. And before that I had an 80yo who had TWO boyfriends, one for the morning walk and one for the afternoon coffee and cinema. She was SO CUTE, and these guys were at least 12 to 15 years younger and competing for her affections with flowers and candy and outings... But she confessed she wasn't gonna go steady with either because she got bored if she spent a whole day with just one 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤩
@@CharlotteDobreyou're so very welcome ☺. THANK YOU for all the laughs and being a bright spot in my day! Plus you're much prettier than the truck drivers I have to look at all day 🤣
Hi Charlotte! I'm a grandma who enjoys watching you and embrace your petty. I love that you featured the honking pigs at Walmart. I test drive them frequently for my dog. He has one in every color!
My grandma’s funeral was last week. She was the coolest, strongest, most unique woman I’ve ever known. I didn’t realize how badly I needed this video. So, thank you. Miss you, Mimi.
I had a grandma that loved making dirty jokes and was sassy as hell. Near the end of her life she was struggling with lung cancer and had lots of doctor appointments. One day a (white) male nurse was taking her vitals and she made a joke about how she likes her men like she likes her coffee: hot and black! 😂😭 The nurse leaves the room and they send in a hot black male nurse. She told me this while cackling. She wasn't allowed by the home hospice workers to drink alcohol, so when they came over she would hide her box of Franzia wine in the dishwasher. She was such a character.
WTF on the alcohol. Don't the Hospice people remember that they work with DYING people? FFS let Grandma have a drink. RN I"m at "no alcohol whatever. It interacts with 5 of my meds and I could ... unalive". Hospice time? Gimme a Killian's Irish Red tonight, yes really, thanks.
My grandmother lived with us for 7 years in our house while having dementia. One of the most petty things she has said to me, after I broke up with my first boyfriend, was “I didn’t want to say anything but he wasn’t a good looker,” and “You could have done better.” We had a great relationship 😂 miss her everyday.
When we visited my Grandparents and my Dad would ask us to do a chore and we said “I don’t want to” or something similar my Grandmother would tell him “well you asked, they said no so you go do it” I miss her so much R.I.P. Grandma ❤
Loved the grandma emptying her grandson’s wallet lol you can tell he’s happy to do it but thinking how expensive she is at the same time 😂❤ Love your videos!
This makes me think of the other day when I was in the car with my grandmother and we saw an adorable older couple walking hand in hand, she said something along the lines of ‘I always thought I’d have that but I guess not. Oh well, I can buy my own flowers and hold my own hand’ and I couldn’t help but laugh bc she was absolutely quoting Flowers 😂 she’s my entire world and I adore her so much
My grandparents were together over 50 years. Although I don't think she regretted their loving life long marriage, I know she found some happiness and independence when my grandfather passed. Being old and single doesn't have to be a tragedy.
Please don't forget grandpa's too! Mine was born in Dawson during the gold rush. He later became what was listed as the first horse thief in Alaska. The story goes that he saw a man beating his horse, he couldn't stand cruelty to animals. So that night he stole the 🐎 🐴 And gave it to someone leaving town..
Love the grandma trying to do Special Ops crawling before anyone realized. It’s wonderful to have a healthy sense of humor and not make them feel ashamed. Love, dignity, respect and humor is all they want. Laughter is the best medicine! 😂🥰🙌🏼
I miss my grandma. She was THE boss lady. 4’8” tall, Irish, with the best comebacks ever! She loved fast cars, singing, dancing, and could do the splits well into her eighties. She regularly made donations to and volunteered her time at retirement homes where there were residents younger than her. I miss her smiles and her stories. I miss going to restaurants with her. The world is a darker place with her gone.
this put a huge smile on my face. my mother was a very cruel woman when I was growing up but when I had kids it turned her into the nicest old woman alive. she would go outside (and even some inside) with the kids and have water fights, they would go for long drives and my kids would come home with piles of toys and clothing, feed them when ever and whatever they wanted, pranks and more candy than any 10 kids should have and so much more. it wasn't until my mother became a grandmother that she became fun and was smiling all the time. she has passed now and the only thing I miss about her is how she treated my kids.
Sometimes I’ve come to notice that parents sometimes end up regretting how they treated their own children. And they end up feeling they should make up for it with their grandchildren. My mom said she felt like she got a do over when she had grand babies. Which is kinda messed up, but as a parent of grown children, I do get it. I was even considered a wonderful mom, and still have regrets. But I’m very close to both my kids.
I worked as a charge nurse in a SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility). My elders were "active." One of the ladies had a boyfriend from outside and gave her crabs. I ended up having to explain the sexual life of 80-95 year olds to state inspectors to explain how 17 elders had veneral crabs. (From bed hopping)
I guess we sharing grandma stories. My grandma died in '99 when I was 13. She lived out of state but would drive down every summer to watch me while my parents worked. We would go to Pizza Hut once a week and order a pizza and she'd have a pitcher of beer. We went to the local mall every Wednesday to go toys and clothes shopping for me. She stayed in my bedroom when she stayed with us and I slept on the couch. On the Wednesday before school starting the next week that year, I slept in, and was going to wake her so we could go to the mall. I found her on my bedroom floor surrounded by my dogs. She had a string of heart attacks and quietly died that morning. That was a very long time ago. I lost both my parents only a few short years later, and have lost practically all my other family members in the decades after. Most of my memories of everyone have faded. I really don't remember what anyone sounded like, outside of my grandma's laugh. I think she's the person I have the strongest love for that's ever been a part of my life. That was nice to share.
Im sorry for your losses but very glad you have the memory of her laugh. Its been a long time since my grandma passed i was 9 and i mostly cant remember her voice but i can remember her play arguing with my grandpa every grocery day when he would say she had too much of something like cans of tomato paste to make her sunday gravy and nonna always responded *yeah Al i got thousands of them* and that sentance in her voice has stayed with me for decades. Im 42 now lost my grandpa at 18 and though i remember many more conversations with him whenever i think of him its his half of that fight and him *sneaking* us neopolitan ice cream and saying dont tell nonna and nonna calling him a pain in the ass when he brought back the dirty bowls just as she finished cleaning up from dinner lol. He would always clean the bowls though. Grandparents are a blessing that too many of us dont get time to fully appreciate til they are gone
My grandma just passed away and this video and the comments are so lovely to see and healing. The doctors were saying she was going to pass away weeks ago but my grandma was a stubborn woman and proved them by hang on for three weeks. If your grandma is still alive go give her a hug and tell her you love them for me ❤️
My favorite memory of my grandma was while she was on a lot of different meds declining from dementia so she couldn't have alcohol (mind you I had never seen her drink alcohol ever which make this even funnier) we were all together having pizza, my mom gave her milk and my granny couldn't stop going on and on about how if you're eating pizza you MUST have beer, refused to take a bite without a beer in her hand. Finally my mom gives in and gives her a root beer, all hell broke loose and my grandma scolded my mom "how dare you Mary Louise I raised you, I am a grown woman and I want beer with my pizza!" My mom then goes back to the kitchen and pours root beer in a tall Guinness glass and brings it to my granny, granny happily drinks it and enjoys her pizza 😂😂🍕🍻
Oh! These make me miss my Great Grandma. She came to Canada in (Halifax) 1913, age 22, alone with $2 in her purse. The immigration list says that she wanted to be a servant. She was really pretty and was hired as a ladys maid for a rich lady in Boston. Met my Great Grandfather there and got married. We always thought that was the end of the story but 2 years ago, through old records, i found out they HAD to get married because she was 5 months pregnant! My Gran was bad ass!
My grandma was also a petty queen! My grandpa had a drinking problem when his kids were young, he told me the story of how he would get off work, go straight to the bar, and then come home drunk and annoying and be rude thinking he was funny. My granny got tired of his wanton behavior, so she decided to make him an extra special lunch for work. She made him up a great big helping of 9lives salmon made into a salad. He said it was the worst thing she’d ever made, and he definitely got the message after that. Lmao I miss her so much. She was an AMAZING, strong, sassy, witty, bra burner of a wind tunnel. And I miss her every day.
@@MrsJay820 lmao yeeessss I loooved her. I also complained to her about my ex husband, she said you can find sympathy in the dictionary between Shit and syphilis… what are you gonna do about it is what I wanna know. You can’t sit there expecting things to get better while you cry about it. Ditch that loser and get you a real man. Pull up your big girl panties, strap on those Shit kickers and get to business!! Oh I miss her every damn day.
I was a full-time caretaker for my grandmother who had cancer. She died at the age of 90. Of all her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren I was her least favorite one. We're talking physical, verbal and psychological abuse. But as a child I promised her to take care of her when she's older and that I wouldn't let it happen that she has to live in a nursing home. When the time came many years later none of her relatives wanted to take her. I left my day job, lived with her and took care of her 24/7. It was a hard time. But I'm glad that she learned that even I wasn't what she wanted me to be other than her favorite kids I cared. I stand by my word. And I would do it again because I know how afraid she was that some day strangers would be treating her like they do with other elderly people. I promised the same to my father. But I would never care for my so called mother.
I love the old lady breaking all the rules. Reminds me of my wife (she's Thai) when our first son was born, she was shopping for diapers but didn't know the differences in sizes. There was a sign on the shelf that clearly said 'Please do not open the packages.' My wife ignored the sign and tore open one of the packages to see what size the diapers were. I told her she wasn't supposed to do that. She replied to me. "I'll just say 'No English' if someone sees me opening them." We have been married for almost 29 years and though she is fluent in English, she still uses that excuse when she needs to...
@@StuckinNormal she was awesome. I loved her description of preparing for your first mammogram. It sounded funny. But then I had my first, and realized she was completely correct.
My grandpa passed away last year due to Covid. One thing he always use to do was send us Christmas money. It was never much, only about $20 per kid but we’d always take that money and walk down to Rite Aid and buy little Christmas gifts for each other. Well this last Christmas I was missing him and remembering how he’d send us money to buy gifts so I took my two nieces down to rite aid and had them pick out gifts for each other. It was my way of remembering him and keeping his tradition alive.
@@CharlotteDobre you are my favorite RUclipsr, currently. Your personality is amazing. I wish there were more people in this world like you. You might be a petty Queen, but you always keep it classy 😉
My grandma had a champion petty moment. She invited her best friends and two grown kids (pre-grandkids) to a dinner party. Everyone had a lovely time and were awed and impressed when she brought out this beautiful cake. "What's the occasion?" Grandpa asked. "It's my birthday, " she replied. Mom said grandma was the only one who ate much cake...
My grandparents were in their seventies and we're on a trip with other senior citizens. They were in a hotel room having fun playing card games when the call came from the front desk asking them to keep it down. My Grandma loved telling that story, she thought it was so funny that a bunch of old folks we're making too much noise.
Loved the swearing grannies in the store complaining about the prices. My mom complains loudly about the prices in Walmart, but it's not as much fun because she never swears.
About the Grandma who couldn't get up and she said that when they get to a certain age. They're just so cute and get away with everything. My grandmother was 80 years old and my friend got her out there and my grandmother started dancing the best she could at my 18th birthday party. Everybody had a blast and loved the she was out there with us. I miss her so much
My mom (90 at the time) was taking out her garbage cans (we thought a neighbor did it for her! Honest!) when she fell. She crawled all the way into the house until she finally found a chair where she could pull herself up rather than push her medic alert button (she didn't want to bother them). She was very proud of herself (rightfully so!), and her children were very ashamed.
ARGHH I love the wee woman taking all the money in the last video! So adorable 🥰 Love your video's Charlotte, can't wait to see your new show when it's out!!!
Oh, she knew exactly what she was doing. Just because their body doesn't work right, does not mean that the mind is gone as well. She saw him take out a wad of bills, and just kept playing the 'feeble' grandma until she had it all. My grandmother was one who didn't want her grown up girls to worry about her. Mom got a call from the neighbor. Grandma had fallen, the neighbor (who visited daily) found her and took her to the hospital. She was there two days before the neighbor called, and that was only because she was having some trouble breathing and they put her on a ventilator. "Oh, don't call the girls, they can't do anything and I don't want them to worry." The neighbor was like 'Nope, I'm calling the girls, this is a lot more serious than a fall. My mother was partly laughing when she called me. " Oh, grandma's in the hospital because she fell and now she's on a ventilator, But she said she was JUST FINE." We were the closest and both of us took off work to go check on her. She was happy to see us, but a little upset that the neighbor had called "I told her I was going to be JUST FINE, don't let the girls worry." She got over that and was with us for another 20 years. I miss her every day.
Oh my gosh, the clip with the grandma crawling made me laugh so hard because I can so relate to it. If something falls to the floor, I have to ask my self if it is really worth bending over for it. Or, heaven forbid, I have to actually get down on the floor. If I do have to get down on the floor I have to roll over and get on all four and slowly try to navigate toward the couch to get up. Sometimes my husband and I laugh so hard at ourselves and each other that we have tears running down our cheeks 🤣🤣🤣
I got me one of those grabby-stick things to pick stuff up and it has changed my life! If I get a fit of the giggles on the floor, I'm not getting back up. I used to snowshoe and once I bent down to pick up a glove, fell into the soft powder, and got the giggles trying to get up. My friend left me and said they'd be back in the spring to get me! 🤣
I can so relate to this! 😂 I once fell in deep snow while out walking our fence line. Just a chubby grandma with bad knees, floundering on my back laughing at the absurdity, trying to get turned over, not wanting to grab for the fence behind me (figured with my luck I'd grab the lower hot wire). Only one to help me was my big old herd guard. The old dog pulled me over to my side so I could get up. Man, I do miss that dog.
I certainly have done that. Crawled that is, to try to get up. Thankfully so far, no one has seen it yet. But I know my grandkids would crack up cause I’d have a funny come back! 😂😂😂😂
My great aunt (grandma's sister) was absolutely ruthless when it came to games. Card games, board games, it didn't matter. One time, when she was visiting one of my aunts and her kids, they played the board game version of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' and one of my cousins used my aunt as a phone a friend and she deliberately gave my cousin the wrong answer because she didn't want her to win. Miss you, Aunt Nancy
That gramma that crawled, omg. If you've ever read the book "Love you forever" by Robert Munsch, you'd cry. SHE IS LITERALLY BEING THE GRAMMA FROM THAT STORY!!! 😭😭❤❤❤ that made my heart happy.
My grandmother is a real Irish lass. When she heard she had to spend more than 20 dollars at the dentist, she proceeded to pull all her teeth out when she was 24 because “dentures cost me 80 dollars my entire life time. Teeth cost more and nobody is kissing me enough to tell they are fake.” She’s my hero.
I've only been a grandma for a year. But, I'll never forget years ago I ran into my grandma going into Walmart while my friend & I were coming out. Grandma yells across the parking lot, 'Any shit in there worth looking at?' as a greeting.
My grandma went to McDonalds once and ordered fries. She didnt like them, so she brought them to the counter and said they should try what their selling first. They all laughed so hard, because she almost ate all of the fries just to make sure she didnt like them.
That’s sweet that she wanted to really make sure it wasn’t just a few of the fries that weren’t very good. If I was working there I would have given her fresh made fries for being so nice. I worked there for years and after so many upset customers someone like her would have be a joy to take a complaint from and try to fix it for her. I would have even given her a card for a free fries next time she comes in
Yeah same, that wasn’t petty. That poor guy poured his heart out to a woman he loved, who just tossed him aside just as he was about to go to war and probably didn’t come back from. And then never thought about him again. He may have wasted his last precious moments of freedom on a cruel woman. Poor guy.
I'm taking care of my 93-year-old grandmother that sharp as a tack. Before she got sick she would drive, go on turn-around trips, and was never home. I'm doing everything in my power to get her back to her normal. My other grandmother lived to be 94. She had Alzheimer’s disease. She was very religious but fun I miss her.
Man, I miss my grandma She was a cook in the army and she walloped a high ranking officer because he was unfairly picking on a private And she went flying on a moped! Granted, the flight was short and the destination was a ditch. Remember to hug your grandma if she's still with you.
I wish my grandmother was still alive, she was so funny, sweet and i learned so much with her. Especially being petty lol. She was a petty queen. I like to think she is still with me in spirit. 🕊❤️ Thank you for this vídeo Charlotte.💜
Omg! Charlotte! You are single handedly getting me through the first trimester of my pregnancy. I’m so sick! And you are bringing me joy and laughs amid the puke ! You do god’s work.
Amen to that! And I’m so sorry!!! As someone who was absolutely unable to eat without puking my whole pregnancy, I pray it goes by super fast. I hated being so sick all the time. But I have nutritional deficiencies that made it so I was sick. And the pills for it made he even more sick. But CONGRATULATIONS!!! The best thing I ever did was be a mom. But that’s just me. I pray you’re very close all through your child’s life, I pray they’re happy and healthy, and I pray your pregnancy and delivery are super fast and super easy. Is it your first?
@@erikarussell1142 thank you so much! That’s was incredibly sweet ! I’ve got some heath problems but we’re gonna make it through. 😄 it is my first and I’m so in love with this little one already ❤
My poor mom was staying at my house to take care of my kids. She locked herself in the garage. The garage door opener was broken so she had to pry the heavy old door open and crawl out under it into the rose bushes! I miss her tons😢
I’m becoming THAT grandma! I had a fabulous example. My mother & sister were driving on the interstate and were cut off by a semi. My sister said, “Mom, flip that guy off for me!” My mother had to use one hand to fold four fingers down on the opposite hand, but she got the job done! She was in her 70s at the time.
I had a tragedy in my life 6 months ago, and so many days your videos have been the only thing that have made me laugh. Thank you and love you my Duchess of Petty🥔🥔🥔 (Also, when my grandpa's girlfriend left town, my grandma was the one to drive her to the train station❤)
Love grandma, and so sad you’re having a hard time. I’m right here if you ever need to vent it out. Love that you’re getting a good dose of laughter every day though. I’ll be praying for you and yours, bestie. Here’s to life getting just a bit easier day by day 🥂
OMG this was great to watch. My grandma (90y) is on her deathbed right now as I'm writing this. And even though I'm sad that her time is coming to an end, this video made me remember all her funny and petty moments. Grandmas are the best. Thank you for making my day 🙏🏼❤️
I became a grammy last year and I can tell you it’s the BEST thing in the WORLD! Well worth all the trouble it is being a mama…love you vids, watch each and every one! Mwah!
12:30 When Grannie demands her Bday money - Death is literally laying next to her on the bed, and she's got the nerve to play pimp?!?!?!? "Where's my money???? Are you holding out on me???? It's not enough????" Grannie! I can't with her, lol!!
Charlotte, I’ve been watching you since the pandemic! You got me through some tough times post a nasty COVID infection! I am an “older lady” 65 and have to watch you every day to get my daily laughter! Keep being the Petty Queen ….God bless…..Margo
It wasn't petty but this happened when my 88-year-old Nana was in the hospital. We knew she was going downhill and didn't have much time left so a bunch of my family gathered around her. She looked at my Uncle and told him that she was done having kids and didn't want any more. It made us laugh and eased the tension in the room. I miss my Nana, she was the best.
My grandma, the 4th grade school teacher for the entire town for thirty plus years, refused to observe daylight savings time, stop lights that used to be stop signs, and rent hikes by the landlord. No one made her do anything she didn't want to, except the time she bought a car from a former student, and she cursed his name for ten years.
Had to revamp my mother’s nightgowns. She’s so happy that bought her multiple sets of grey and black nighties with white piping and we can unbutton them all the way in front in case of emergency. She has stylish nighties and it does make her feel better. (no idea why I shared that 😆)
❤ I lost my Nan a few years ago and this made me think of her,my Nan was also smart and put her make up etc on and loved her posh nighties !!one day she stayed at my house and used my make up before I got up well she used my bronzer as face powder and blue eyeliner as eye brow pencil 😂 she literally looked like a glowing clown 🤡,she couldn’t find a mirror but still tried 🤦♀️🥰I couldn’t shop laughing.I miss her so much .❤️❤️
@@joeakaprolifik7735 So happy that brought back happy memories! 🥳🙌🏼🤍 Thank you for sharing that fun time! You gifted me with warm fuzzy love by sharing that moment. ❤️
Oh my God I cannot get enough of this. These elderly people are amazing. I respect my elders and just because they're old doesn't mean they are Not gonna go in for the fight. This had me laughing so hard, but in a good way. love you grandma
The one about the pearls before he went to war wasnt petty at all, just Evil and cold. He went to war with a broker heart for NO reason. Id NEVER tell that story ever, but especially not when talking about how much i missed my grandma.. thank god she did that to him tbh, because he deserved SO MUCH BETTER ! can't imagine how hurt and scared and lonely he was..and he still wrote to her. Smh. Fuck that old crow
My mum spent the last 8 years of her life in a nursing home, mainly because she was on oxygen and was pretty much bedridden. Most nights she would sit up late (she was always a night owl reading until 2am when I was a teen...I'd hear dad say "Come on Ivy, put your damn book down and turn out the light" and she would reply "Just one more chapter..." an hour later she would finish the book then go to sleep...) and she would ring up and chat with the local talk back radio guy who was on from about 10 pm until midnight or later. She would find dirty jokes and read them to him on air, and she would tell him stories about growing up during the Depression and War years, stories about the convent she was in during WW2 since her mum couldn't look after her (she was a single mother and only 17 when mum was born) with tales of the nuns and stuff. When she hadn't rung in for a week, he actually rang her nursing home to see if she was ok (she had an infection at the time which had hit her hard) so he asked his listeners to keep her in their thoughts that night. The next day, about 15 bouquets of flowers arrived addressed to her from his listeners. Mum cried and I rang the studio to thank him. A few years later when she died (it was sudden) he actually came to her funeral and shook my hand saying how she had taken a dull segment of his life and brightened it up with her jokes, her stories and her energy. I thanked him for giving her a life line to hang on to, how she was always asking me for new jokes to tell him and so on. My kids were only 14 and 8 at the time and they still miss her terribly. The saddest part was, her brain was still super sharp right up until the last few days but her body just let her down. My nephews and my kids all agree that 'Granny Grump' was the best grandma around. She had been more physical with the older kids (I was born 10 years after my siblings - mum had trouble carrying to term), taking them swimming, getting down on the floor playing cars with them, getting totally messy helping her cook cakes and biscuits, you know... granny stuff. Now I'm a grandma to two munchkins and I look to her for inspiration. I miss her so much every day even though it's been 11 years - she is still looking over my shoulder and encouraging me to march to my own drum, to be the best I can be.
I AAAM a petty grandma lol. When the bbl's were becoming popular MY grandma suddenly added her 2 cents..."oh mija don't worry everyones ass looks the same BENT OVER" 🤣🤣 I miss her
my grandma's funeral is tomorrow. she was the last of my grandparents and unfortunately i have to miss it because of midterms. this video came at a good time to appreciate our grandmothers. she always encouraged me and my sisters to find a man with a job 🙏
My husband's grandmother is 96. She still goes to the gym and has a THRIVING social life. Unfortunately, she had a stroke this past week and is in the hospital. She is seriously the strongest person I know. She is actually recovering faster than I thought she would. She is amazing.
Paused this video and read every single comment here. Loved the stories and even laughed out loud a couple times! You have some good people in your Audience Charlotte, and you deserve it! Love you much, glad to be a part of it❤😊
My grandma lives in a super nice retirement home and it’s hilarious hearing her stories lol. Talking about everyone trying to be friends with her and this random dude hitting on her that she avoids. 😂
Just became a grandma a year ago and it has been the best time of my life! Don't get me wrong .. I loved being a mom but being a grandma is a whole nother level lol. It's amazing ❤️🥰
I work at a hospital and in our therapy pool(pre Covid),we had a community pool program in our therapy pool. I swear the older people were so much drama! lol one time I had a lady kick another patient in the pool and he yelled at her and they’re fighting.. and I had to call our therapy director because I was over telling grown ass people to cut it out. Lol it was worse than like little kids.
This year is my 60th around the sun. I've hit my stride. I'm retired now, but when I was working as an RN in a small town dementia care unit. I was sitting behind the nurses station and overheard two little old rivals having an argument. I don't know what started it but one came out with 'I bet you never had a man give you good sex all your life' , to which the other replied 'At least I didn't sleep with everyone in town'. I stifled my laughter.
6:35 sounds like amber heard 😂 my nana died 15 years ago and my nanny died last year on October 20th and it was sad 😢 she was on dialysis she couldn’t take it anymore she was going downhill while she was living they made a big deal on what she ate they say oh she can’t have that it’s too salty or this because it’s too sweet something ridiculous and my momma hated it she was like just give her what she wants who cares she ain’t got much to live so let her spend it on what she wants to eat geez 🙄 she was 87 I remember she would have these suckers and we would go in the kitchen and get one and these cookies that was good she had pictures on her refrigerator we would play Yahtzee and cards she had these books that was fairytales like jack and the beanstalk and little red riding hood and others and wrote her name in them I would go over there and read them every time she had a room with a table and chairs a closet full of games and photos and these bears we would go in there and eat and play games and look at photos me and my cousins would go into her bedroom and play and look at these jewelry she had she had a tv stand with photos on each shelf and above the tv was senior photos of her grandkids she had a photo of my family when I was little and had it hung above her couch and a little table with pictures of my cousins and my family from where we went to the beach and other stuff we have a ton load of memories from her house and it’s sad because I can’t even remember anything from my nana’s house it’s because I was 4 so I don’t remember much and I wish I did even though I don’t remember much I still miss her she would sit in the corner of my house in this chair we still have and this aunt jemima doll in her kitchen that was tall it’s in my cousins house I just miss her and I cry every time 😢I wish she was still here her name was Betty jo and my nanny’s was Lucy we used to call her sometimes nanny Lucy 😂
I'm a grandma, but not sure I'd consider myself an older lady.... yet.... lol.... I never miss one of your vids Charlotte. Some days my "continence aids" are put under serious pressure, and today's vid was one of them! My only wish is to live long enough to be as much trouble to my children as they were to me.... just like some of these ladies!!!
My grandma lost her husband in her 40s and never remarried. She was used to doing as she pleased, but at 80, they took her driver's license (by the way, she was like a roller coaster on those bluegrass hills in Kentucky). Anyway, my father was driving us all to church one day (he was her son), and we were running a little late, so he was going at a pretty good clip. Outta nowhere, a cop shows up, lights and siren, and pulls him over, giving him a ticket for speeding. As we headed off to church, Grandma said, "Sure. You take away MY license, but who ends up getting a ticket?" I about died!
I worked at a retirement home, and it was basically high school. There was a cool table. It was the biggest and only round table in the dining room. There was one woman who dated tons of men, and the women all hated her and were jealous. Meanwhile they’re all 75+. Nothing changes 😂
Oh so true. I worked at the Ohio Bureau of Vital Statistics, everyone in my department was 70+, they talked crap about eachother, what they wore to church, if they showed up late for church, eachother's hair.
Dear god... remind me to never enter a nursing home...
Ex nurse from Germany here, our elderly are EXACTLY the same 😂 I had this one guy who was still going out to the shops by himself. We later found out he was smuggeling alcohol and cigarettes to everyone who couldn't go out on their own :D I stumbled upon 5 empty vodka bottles while cleaning a lady's room and turns out those two had a thing going and regularly got drunk together in secret 😂😂😂
@@teresawelter7530 and why the heck not, hope I'm as " active" as them when I get on
Same in the nursing homes I've worked in
Told my grandmother I'm getting married. She said " Guess he finally figured out he can't do any better. " I lost it laughing. Best burn ever.
Lollll
Ouch! Grandma got a sharp tongue. lol. We have to love our elders. They're awesome. Even if they're being honest.
I take the opposite way: There’s no one who’s better than you. You are the treasure
@themermaidstale5008 that's how I took too!
My great grandma found out her husband was skirting around, but when his coworker told her that he’d said, “ As long as I keep one in her lap & one in the oven, she doesn’t have anything to complain about” that was it. She took his paycheck & booked a train from California back to Oklahoma with 5 kids. She also refused to sign divorce papers, so when that pos died, SHE got his pension & not the woman he’d been living with for a decade. 😂 So proud of this epically strong woman!
Queen 🌟🤣!
Oh I LOVE HER!!!! Yaaaasssss quuueeeenn!!! *snaps**
@Unknown Account Ew.
@@Stellarstray51 I know. It's been like a series of bots across creators, cuz I've seen the exact same comment on other RUclipsrs vids I follow. And it's the same thing every time and in the middle of a thread like randomly, and over and over again. Idk if this is the 2.0 version of reply girls from the early years of youtube? Seems like it.
Oh yes great job to your great grandma.
My grandma is 89 and she is also really petty. I was arguing with my dad and he told me that I don’t respect and love him. My grandma intervened “ How would she know how to respect and love you when you were too busy all her childhood and you were never with her?” I swear by her looks if she had a mic she would drop it 🤣
Be honest Did she spoke your thoughts?
Ooooh burned by his own mother. 😂
This is one of my favorite stories of my grandma. It was a few days before she passed away, and she had dementia so she really didn't know who we were. My dad was sitting next to her bed, holding her hand, and he asked her, "mom, do you know who I am?" She just turns her head, opens one eye and goes, "yeah, you're a pain in the ass" then goes back to sleep. We all started laughing so hard, the room went from sad and somber to lively with that one comment. She didn't say much else after that, and passed away a few days later. Famous last words granny!
We love granny 🥹💕
According to my parents, my great grandmother had one of the pettiest moments I've ever heard:
She lived in NYC with her husband and two of her adult children were staying with her for the holidays. My great grandfather still worked and there was a snowstorm, so my great grandmother and the two adults dug out a spot for him to park in when he got home. Shortly afterwards, a man takes said spot from them. They try to explain the situation but he rudely ignores them and says something like I don't give a crap. As soon as he is in, my great grandmother simply says, "Get the shovel".
With her at the lead, she and her kids dug the neighbor's car back in with all the snow they dug out. They made sure the car was buried deep in the snow. She then went inside, got some water, and poured it all over the car. When she was done, she left it to freeze overnight, creating a nice, thick ice/snow barrier around the car.
The next day, the neighbor goes to leave and sees his car covered in ice and snow. My great grandmother was there watching and waving to him from inside her apartment, a cup of hot coffee in her hands. Apparently, it took hours for him to figure out how to free his car.
good one
Sounds like he got exactly what he deserves 🤔
Hopefully, he learned never to take a spot from someone again.
I think maybe the story has changed over the years of being told, because pouring water on the situation would take days to undo. Unless he got it towed to a heated garage, it could take until Spring! She should have poured the water first to seal th doors, then end with a nice misting. That would take till Summer! Hope hubby was proud of her! She Is a Great grandma!
As someone who has had an asshole neighbor take my parking spot, this gave me so much petty satisfaction. Your great grandma was a fucking BOSS.
“Run Granny, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run!” Proceeds to shuffle off with all her might😂 I love her
I love that rule breaking Grandma!
I got a lump in my throat because of how much she reminds me of my aunt, my mom's sister, who loved to annoy my rather propper mom by doing and saying whatever the hell she wanted. She outlived 4 husbands. Mom said she just wore them out.
My aunt was named "Earline", but everyone called her "Erkie". I was in my 20s when one of my boyfriends met her and just fell in love with her funny antics and outrageous flirting. He heard me call her "Aunt Erkie", and he started laughing. He said, "That nickname is PERFECT! How long has your family been calling her Anarchy?"
Then it was our time to laugh. My brother and I had been saying "Aunt Erkie" with a Southern drawl since we were toddlers, but until that moment didn't realize that, indeed, we were saying "Anarchy"!
Oldder people have lots of trouble trying to run a morathion.
It was so cute
No doubt! I love Ross and "Gangster Granny" Smith, they are the best!
@@NevermoreMadGirl thank you was looking for the name
"Guess who has drama at the senior center? MEEEEEEE."
I love this woman's energy 😂
The grandma with the pearls wasn't petty, she was just cold.
Yeah, I didn't get how that was supposed to be a funny petty story...
like liquite nitrogen, nothing petty about it
I'm glad I'm not the only one here who thinks that woman was cold and cruel. That poor guy did not deserve what she did to him at all.
@Captain Mercurian yep just wierd
@@christopherorta8755 It's safe to say whoever he did end up marrying was a much nicer person and he was happier.
Just turned 72. Age is what you make of it. Started skydiving and downhill skiing in my 40s. Finally learned to skateboard (thanks to my grandsons) in my 50s. In my early 60s I went to Africa for the first time (by myself) and went multiple times, living in a rasta fishing village and learning to drum. Now in my 70s, I've discovered an amazing Chinese rocker who only performs in China (Hua Chenyu) and have booked hotels in China for his annual Mars Concert. Law of attraction....believe that you're still young and can do whatever you want and that's how you can live your life! PS Started working again full time at 71.
I wanna be your friend. How do I do it?
Love you!!
You rock Barbara!🎉 Love you!❤
I just turned 60... I want to be YOU when I grow up!!😘
You are truly an inspiration, I needed to read this. Hugs from a 59y/o (young)
I love how the comments are filled with love for our grandparents! I miss my gram every day!!
Same! My grandparents are still alive but I barely see them
My grandmother was 89 when she died. The morning before, she dug up all the dandelions in her yard and bagged them for the trash. I spoke to her that evening and she'd fixed a good dinner and the neighbor had brought her strawberry shortcake. She sat in her chair and watched TV and peacefully passed away. She still cleaned out her own gutters and sewed and quilted. She was awesome. My mother is now 89 and while she's living in assisted living she's quite sharp.
my ex husband's grandmother was also like this up until she had gotten bit by a brown recluse. his sister says that wasn't what changed things, but it was. she had healed but it had done enough damage that she had to have her foot amputated because she's diabetic and they don't do well with injuries, especially later in life. but up until that moment, she was constantly on the move. cooking, cleaning, gardening, taking care of her many grandbabies and great grandbabies. everyone would tell her to slow down or take a break and she'd always tell them "i'll rest when i'm gone."
Ny grandma was the same way. I wish to go peacefully with family around.
Ahh amen...
My great grandmother, actually still around surprisingly and I'm the youngest of my siblings and almost 20 and my parents started having us around their 20s to 30s keep that in mind- she's 100 and counting and while she's starting to lose memory unfortunately due to age she was the most badass grandma ever. She used to ride motorcycles just a few years back though that's too dangerous now with memory loss. She would make me and my siblings hand made quilted pillows, she let us use the laundry shoot to play with by tossing objects through it and racing to get to it in the basement. Absolute gem of a great-grandmother. Love you Grandma Ruby!
One of my favorite quotes from my grandma: "Life is the darnest thing! You spend years training babies to get out of diapers, then, before you know it, you end up right back in them yourself." Love you Grandma!
Watching and hearing how much all these grandkids love their grandmas, makes me realize the world is gonna be okay 😊
Reflecting on the story, as my grandma told it, I'm pretty sure she made a lifetime commitment out of sheer pettiness. See, she was dating this guy who had to go down to Texas for some trip or something and he didn't take her with him, which she was peeved about. So her friend invited her to a double date w/ like Bob and James or w/e. They went dancing or something one weekend and my grandma was paired up w/ Bob while her friends was paired up w/ James. They had a good time, so her friend invited her out w/ the same guys the next weekend--but her friend and Bob got sick and couldn't go. So my grandma just went out with this James guy. James then did the most 1940's thing and proposed to my grandma on their second (technically kind of their first) date. AND HE DIDN'T EVEN GET HER NAME RIGHT. He tried SO HARD to see what her ID bracelet said, but STILL got it wrong and proposed to her w/ the wrong name.
But she was still pissed at her boyfriend, so grandma was like, "lol sure." James was leaving for California the next day and she knew she'd never see him again so whatever. BUT NAH BITCH. James came back two weeks later w/ his car to drive her down to California to meet his parents. And my grandma was just like..."lol sure."
SHE NEVER EVEN BROKE UP W/ HER BOYFRIEND SHE JUST GOT ENGAGED TO THIS RANDOM FUCKING DUDE WHILE HER BF WAS OUT OF TOWN B/C SHE WAS MAD HE DIDN'T TAKE HER WITH HIM???? SHE NEVER ELABORATED ON THIS POINT I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HIS NAME WAS
Anyway, that's the story of how my grandparents met. My mom, her sisters, all of us grandkids, and all the great grandkids literally only exist b/c grandma woke up one day and chose petty.
Lol😂
So wait she did marry and have kids with the guy or your grandpa is the one that went to Texas?
That was a long comment to not actually give us answers 😂 Is the random guy your grandpa??? Come back, we need some closure lol
This so iconic.
@@steviemichelle7271 she got engaged to the random guy James who became her Grandpa. It’s in the story.
During the pandemic I had these lovely grannies for house calls and some of them were SO feisty and petty, it was delightful. My favorite one snuck a bottle of Bailey's and drank it whole with another two at the senior center. They got the SUGAHS for weeks and I had to play serious but she was a blast.
And before that I had an 80yo who had TWO boyfriends, one for the morning walk and one for the afternoon coffee and cinema. She was SO CUTE, and these guys were at least 12 to 15 years younger and competing for her affections with flowers and candy and outings... But she confessed she wasn't gonna go steady with either because she got bored if she spent a whole day with just one 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤩
@Unknown Account i doubt it. Probably just lame incel porn. Go back to ya momma basement and wait for your chikky tendies 🤦♀️

I might be late, but I am sorry to hear about your grandma passing. Hope you are doing a little better ❤
I had a grandma that loved making dirty jokes and was sassy as hell. Near the end of her life she was struggling with lung cancer and had lots of doctor appointments. One day a (white) male nurse was taking her vitals and she made a joke about how she likes her men like she likes her coffee: hot and black! 😂😭 The nurse leaves the room and they send in a hot black male nurse. She told me this while cackling.
She wasn't allowed by the home hospice workers to drink alcohol, so when they came over she would hide her box of Franzia wine in the dishwasher. She was such a character.
Beautiful! Sassy.
WTF on the alcohol. Don't the Hospice people remember that they work with DYING people? FFS let Grandma have a drink.
RN I"m at "no alcohol whatever. It interacts with 5 of my meds and I could ... unalive".
Hospice time? Gimme a Killian's Irish Red tonight, yes really, thanks.
Those nurses knew she had the right to ask for her preferred one 😂
My grandmother lived with us for 7 years in our house while having dementia. One of the most petty things she has said to me, after I broke up with my first boyfriend, was “I didn’t want to say anything but he wasn’t a good looker,” and “You could have done better.”
We had a great relationship 😂 miss her everyday.
HAHAHAH
When we visited my Grandparents and my Dad would ask us to do a chore and we said “I don’t want to” or something similar my Grandmother would tell him “well you asked, they said no so you go do it” I miss her so much R.I.P. Grandma ❤
Loved the grandma emptying her grandson’s wallet lol you can tell he’s happy to do it but thinking how expensive she is at the same time 😂❤ Love your videos!
She is hilarious 😂
"you holding out on me?" and "that's a one night stand." kilt me 🤣
She had that punchline ready to go and you could see the love between them. It was the best!
😂😂😂😂😂
He already knew how much it will cost him but he did it with love and laughs. I loved them both 😂❤
He literally brought them all to give her one by one to listen to her rants lol
This makes me think of the other day when I was in the car with my grandmother and we saw an adorable older couple walking hand in hand, she said something along the lines of ‘I always thought I’d have that but I guess not. Oh well, I can buy my own flowers and hold my own hand’ and I couldn’t help but laugh bc she was absolutely quoting Flowers 😂 she’s my entire world and I adore her so much
My grandparents were together over 50 years. Although I don't think she regretted their loving life long marriage, I know she found some happiness and independence when my grandfather passed. Being old and single doesn't have to be a tragedy.
Please don't forget grandpa's too! Mine was born in Dawson during the gold rush.
He later became what was listed as the first horse thief in Alaska. The story goes that he saw a man beating his horse, he couldn't stand cruelty to animals. So that night he stole the 🐎 🐴 And gave it to someone leaving town..
Love the grandma trying to do Special Ops crawling before anyone realized.
It’s wonderful to have a healthy sense of humor and not make them feel ashamed. Love, dignity, respect and humor is all they want.
Laughter is the best medicine! 😂🥰🙌🏼
I miss my grandma. She was THE boss lady. 4’8” tall, Irish, with the best comebacks ever! She loved fast cars, singing, dancing, and could do the splits well into her eighties. She regularly made donations to and volunteered her time at retirement homes where there were residents younger than her. I miss her smiles and her stories. I miss going to restaurants with her. The world is a darker place with her gone.
So sorry for your loss! But look at the beautiful memories you have of her. She is always in your heart! ❤
🌸
this put a huge smile on my face. my mother was a very cruel woman when I was growing up but when I had kids it turned her into the nicest old woman alive. she would go outside (and even some inside) with the kids and have water fights, they would go for long drives and my kids would come home with piles of toys and clothing, feed them when ever and whatever they wanted, pranks and more candy than any 10 kids should have and so much more. it wasn't until my mother became a grandmother that she became fun and was smiling all the time. she has passed now and the only thing I miss about her is how she treated my kids.
Sometimes I’ve come to notice that parents sometimes end up regretting how they treated their own children. And they end up feeling they should make up for it with their grandchildren. My mom said she felt like she got a do over when she had grand babies. Which is kinda messed up, but as a parent of grown children, I do get it. I was even considered a wonderful mom, and still have regrets. But I’m very close to both my kids.
A lot of the times moms don't get to BE fun because they don't get to when their partner isn't actually helpful.
You sound like my dad. You have my empathy. Glad your kids had a different experience, but I see you.
You have ten kids holy fuck thanks for doing your part!🙂
@O66671 LOL no you're not, stupid bot account.
I worked as a charge nurse in a SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility). My elders were "active." One of the ladies had a boyfriend from outside and gave her crabs. I ended up having to explain the sexual life of 80-95 year olds to state inspectors to explain how 17 elders had veneral crabs. (From bed hopping)
I guess we sharing grandma stories.
My grandma died in '99 when I was 13. She lived out of state but would drive down every summer to watch me while my parents worked. We would go to Pizza Hut once a week and order a pizza and she'd have a pitcher of beer. We went to the local mall every Wednesday to go toys and clothes shopping for me. She stayed in my bedroom when she stayed with us and I slept on the couch. On the Wednesday before school starting the next week that year, I slept in, and was going to wake her so we could go to the mall. I found her on my bedroom floor surrounded by my dogs. She had a string of heart attacks and quietly died that morning. That was a very long time ago. I lost both my parents only a few short years later, and have lost practically all my other family members in the decades after. Most of my memories of everyone have faded. I really don't remember what anyone sounded like, outside of my grandma's laugh. I think she's the person I have the strongest love for that's ever been a part of my life. That was nice to share.
You had a wonderful grandma
❤❤❤
Im sorry for your losses but very glad you have the memory of her laugh. Its been a long time since my grandma passed i was 9 and i mostly cant remember her voice but i can remember her play arguing with my grandpa every grocery day when he would say she had too much of something like cans of tomato paste to make her sunday gravy and nonna always responded *yeah Al i got thousands of them* and that sentance in her voice has stayed with me for decades. Im 42 now lost my grandpa at 18 and though i remember many more conversations with him whenever i think of him its his half of that fight and him *sneaking* us neopolitan ice cream and saying dont tell nonna and nonna calling him a pain in the ass when he brought back the dirty bowls just as she finished cleaning up from dinner lol. He would always clean the bowls though. Grandparents are a blessing that too many of us dont get time to fully appreciate til they are gone
Theres a fine line between being petty and just being downright mean or hurtful. Dont be hurtful, yall.
priestly67s grandma and pearls story. 🤮
My grandma just passed away and this video and the comments are so lovely to see and healing. The doctors were saying she was going to pass away weeks ago but my grandma was a stubborn woman and proved them by hang on for three weeks. If your grandma is still alive go give her a hug and tell her you love them for me ❤️
what's your favorite memory of her?
@@patrickdelaurentiis6752 Her singing in the morning everyday while she visited.
My favorite memory of my grandma was while she was on a lot of different meds declining from dementia so she couldn't have alcohol (mind you I had never seen her drink alcohol ever which make this even funnier) we were all together having pizza, my mom gave her milk and my granny couldn't stop going on and on about how if you're eating pizza you MUST have beer, refused to take a bite without a beer in her hand. Finally my mom gives in and gives her a root beer, all hell broke loose and my grandma scolded my mom "how dare you Mary Louise I raised you, I am a grown woman and I want beer with my pizza!"
My mom then goes back to the kitchen and pours root beer in a tall Guinness glass and brings it to my granny, granny happily drinks it and enjoys her pizza 😂😂🍕🍻
9:52 I laughed way too hard at the “you’re a goofy b*tch!” 😂
That grandson giving that money while saying "I love you" is how I want to raise my kids
Oh! These make me miss my Great Grandma. She came to Canada in (Halifax) 1913, age 22, alone with $2 in her purse. The immigration list says that she wanted to be a servant. She was really pretty and was hired as a ladys maid for a rich lady in Boston. Met my Great Grandfather there and got married. We always thought that was the end of the story but 2 years ago, through old records, i found out they HAD to get married because she was 5 months pregnant! My Gran was bad ass!
Oh my word! Too funny to find out decades later! Bad ass granny for sure. Love it. ❤
My grandma was also a petty queen! My grandpa had a drinking problem when his kids were young, he told me the story of how he would get off work, go straight to the bar, and then come home drunk and annoying and be rude thinking he was funny. My granny got tired of his wanton behavior, so she decided to make him an extra special lunch for work. She made him up a great big helping of 9lives salmon made into a salad. He said it was the worst thing she’d ever made, and he definitely got the message after that. Lmao I miss her so much. She was an AMAZING, strong, sassy, witty, bra burner of a wind tunnel. And I miss her every day.
Hahah too me a minute! Hahahaha she made cat food salad? Omg
@@MrsJay820 lmao yeeessss I loooved her. I also complained to her about my ex husband, she said you can find sympathy in the dictionary between Shit and syphilis… what are you gonna do about it is what I wanna know. You can’t sit there expecting things to get better while you cry about it. Ditch that loser and get you a real man. Pull up your big girl panties, strap on those Shit kickers and get to business!!
Oh I miss her every damn day.
@Unknown Account no one is better than Charlotte… you get outta here.
I was a full-time caretaker for my grandmother who had cancer. She died at the age of 90. Of all her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren I was her least favorite one. We're talking physical, verbal and psychological abuse. But as a child I promised her to take care of her when she's older and that I wouldn't let it happen that she has to live in a nursing home. When the time came many years later none of her relatives wanted to take her. I left my day job, lived with her and took care of her 24/7. It was a hard time. But I'm glad that she learned that even I wasn't what she wanted me to be other than her favorite kids I cared. I stand by my word. And I would do it again because I know how afraid she was that some day strangers would be treating her like they do with other elderly people. I promised the same to my father. But I would never care for my so called mother.
❤❤❤
I love the old lady breaking all the rules. Reminds me of my wife (she's Thai) when our first son was born, she was shopping for diapers but didn't know the differences in sizes. There was a sign on the shelf that clearly said 'Please do not open the packages.' My wife ignored the sign and tore open one of the packages to see what size the diapers were. I told her she wasn't supposed to do that. She replied to me. "I'll just say 'No English' if someone sees me opening them." We have been married for almost 29 years and though she is fluent in English, she still uses that excuse when she needs to...
Awwhhhsome, love this!

Ohhh, I miss Erma!!! Thank you for reminding me of her!
@@StuckinNormal she was awesome. I loved her description of preparing for your first mammogram. It sounded funny. But then I had my first, and realized she was completely correct.
My grandpa passed away last year due to Covid. One thing he always use to do was send us Christmas money. It was never much, only about $20 per kid but we’d always take that money and walk down to Rite Aid and buy little Christmas gifts for each other. Well this last Christmas I was missing him and remembering how he’d send us money to buy gifts so I took my two nieces down to rite aid and had them pick out gifts for each other. It was my way of remembering him and keeping his tradition alive.
That is so nice. Continuing a beautiful tradition! ❤
That was a wonderful decision. I hope it made you feel a bit better.
I'm sorry to hear about your grandpa! Mine also died due to Covid. Beautiful tradition!
@@CharlotteDobre you are my favorite RUclipsr, currently. Your personality is amazing. I wish there were more people in this world like you. You might be a petty Queen, but you always keep it classy 😉
My grandma had a champion petty moment. She invited her best friends and two grown kids (pre-grandkids) to a dinner party. Everyone had a lovely time and were awed and impressed when she brought out this beautiful cake. "What's the occasion?" Grandpa asked. "It's my birthday, " she replied. Mom said grandma was the only one who ate much cake...
One day i woke up and realized I am old and sassy. It's a blast. Love and live for my grandbabies.
My grandparents were in their seventies and we're on a trip with other senior citizens. They were in a hotel room having fun playing card games when the call came from the front desk asking them to keep it down. My Grandma loved telling that story, she thought it was so funny that a bunch of old folks we're making too much noise.
This day has been hot garbage and all of these grannies have given me a reason to make it through this damn day, lol. These ladies are goals!
Loved the swearing grannies in the store complaining about the prices. My mom complains loudly about the prices in Walmart, but it's not as much fun because she never swears.
About the Grandma who couldn't get up and she said that when they get to a certain age. They're just so cute and get away with everything. My grandmother was 80 years old and my friend got her out there and my grandmother started dancing the best she could at my 18th birthday party. Everybody had a blast and loved the she was out there with us. I miss her so much
My mom (90 at the time) was taking out her garbage cans (we thought a neighbor did it for her! Honest!) when she fell. She crawled all the way into the house until she finally found a chair where she could pull herself up rather than push her medic alert button (she didn't want to bother them). She was very proud of herself (rightfully so!), and her children were very ashamed.
ARGHH I love the wee woman taking all the money in the last video! So adorable 🥰 Love your video's Charlotte, can't wait to see your new show when it's out!!!
Oh, she knew exactly what she was doing. Just because their body doesn't work right, does not mean that the mind is gone as well. She saw him take out a wad of bills, and just kept playing the 'feeble' grandma until she had it all.
My grandmother was one who didn't want her grown up girls to worry about her. Mom got a call from the neighbor. Grandma had fallen, the neighbor (who visited daily) found her and took her to the hospital. She was there two days before the neighbor called, and that was only because she was having some trouble breathing and they put her on a ventilator.
"Oh, don't call the girls, they can't do anything and I don't want them to worry." The neighbor was like 'Nope, I'm calling the girls, this is a lot more serious than a fall.
My mother was partly laughing when she called me. " Oh, grandma's in the hospital because she fell and now she's on a ventilator, But she said she was JUST FINE." We were the closest and both of us took off work to go check on her. She was happy to see us, but a little upset that the neighbor had called "I told her I was going to be JUST FINE, don't let the girls worry."
She got over that and was with us for another 20 years. I miss her every day.
Oh my gosh, the clip with the grandma crawling made me laugh so hard because I can so relate to it. If something falls to the floor, I have to ask my self if it is really worth bending over for it. Or, heaven forbid, I have to actually get down on the floor. If I do have to get down on the floor I have to roll over and get on all four and slowly try to navigate toward the couch to get up. Sometimes my husband and I laugh so hard at ourselves and each other that we have tears running down our cheeks 🤣🤣🤣
I got me one of those grabby-stick things to pick stuff up and it has changed my life! If I get a fit of the giggles on the floor, I'm not getting back up. I used to snowshoe and once I bent down to pick up a glove, fell into the soft powder, and got the giggles trying to get up. My friend left me and said they'd be back in the spring to get me! 🤣
I can so relate to this! 😂 I once fell in deep snow while out walking our fence line. Just a chubby grandma with bad knees, floundering on my back laughing at the absurdity, trying to get turned over, not wanting to grab for the fence behind me (figured with my luck I'd grab the lower hot wire). Only one to help me was my big old herd guard. The old dog pulled me over to my side so I could get up. Man, I do miss that dog.
@@dianajohnson7337 I can see it all, now! 🤣
I certainly have done that. Crawled that is, to try to get up. Thankfully so far, no one has seen it yet. But I know my grandkids would crack up cause I’d have a funny come back! 😂😂😂😂
My great aunt (grandma's sister) was absolutely ruthless when it came to games. Card games, board games, it didn't matter.
One time, when she was visiting one of my aunts and her kids, they played the board game version of 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' and one of my cousins used my aunt as a phone a friend and she deliberately gave my cousin the wrong answer because she didn't want her to win.
Miss you, Aunt Nancy
That gramma that crawled, omg. If you've ever read the book "Love you forever" by Robert Munsch, you'd cry. SHE IS LITERALLY BEING THE GRAMMA FROM THAT STORY!!! 😭😭❤❤❤ that made my heart happy.
My grandmother is a real Irish lass. When she heard she had to spend more than 20 dollars at the dentist, she proceeded to pull all her teeth out when she was 24 because “dentures cost me 80 dollars my entire life time. Teeth cost more and nobody is kissing me enough to tell they are fake.” She’s my hero.
I've only been a grandma for a year. But, I'll never forget years ago I ran into my grandma going into Walmart while my friend & I were coming out. Grandma yells across the parking lot, 'Any shit in there worth looking at?' as a greeting.
LOL 😆
My grandma went to McDonalds once and ordered fries. She didnt like them, so she brought them to the counter and said they should try what their selling first. They all laughed so hard, because she almost ate all of the fries just to make sure she didnt like them.
That’s sweet that she wanted to really make sure it wasn’t just a few of the fries that weren’t very good. If I was working there I would have given her fresh made fries for being so nice. I worked there for years and after so many upset customers someone like her would have be a joy to take a complaint from and try to fix it for her. I would have even given her a card for a free fries next time she comes in
I don't get why the grandma with the pearls did what she did...? What happened there? I thought that was really mean, not petty!
Yes! What I was thinking! It was cruel
yeah that story just made me sad for the guy
I agree with you. Horrible thing to do to the poor guy.
I know, I didn’t understand it, it was just sad
Yeah same, that wasn’t petty.
That poor guy poured his heart out to a woman he loved, who just tossed him aside just as he was about to go to war and probably didn’t come back from.
And then never thought about him again.
He may have wasted his last precious moments of freedom on a cruel woman.
Poor guy.
I'm taking care of my 93-year-old grandmother that sharp as a tack. Before she got sick she would drive, go on turn-around trips, and was never home. I'm doing everything in my power to get her back to her normal. My other grandmother lived to be 94. She had Alzheimer’s disease. She was very religious but fun I miss her.
Man, I miss my grandma
She was a cook in the army and she walloped a high ranking officer because he was unfairly picking on a private
And she went flying on a moped! Granted, the flight was short and the destination was a ditch.
Remember to hug your grandma if she's still with you.
Oh my word, Charlotte, you gotta find more petty grandma stories. Sure made my day. And I just might steal some of their pettiness ideas! 😂😂😂😂
I wish my grandmother was still alive, she was so funny, sweet and i learned so much with her. Especially being petty lol. She was a petty queen. I like to think she is still with me in spirit. 🕊❤️
Thank you for this vídeo Charlotte.💜
Omg! Charlotte! You are single handedly getting me through the first trimester of my pregnancy. I’m so sick! And you are bringing me joy and laughs amid the puke ! You do god’s work.
I will solely rely on her content during pregnancy too!
Good luck to you & baby 💛
Amen to that! And I’m so sorry!!! As someone who was absolutely unable to eat without puking my whole pregnancy, I pray it goes by super fast. I hated being so sick all the time. But I have nutritional deficiencies that made it so I was sick. And the pills for it made he even more sick. But CONGRATULATIONS!!! The best thing I ever did was be a mom. But that’s just me. I pray you’re very close all through your child’s life, I pray they’re happy and healthy, and I pray your pregnancy and delivery are super fast and super easy. Is it your first?
@@erikarussell1142 thank you so much! That’s was incredibly sweet ! I’ve got some heath problems but we’re gonna make it through. 😄 it is my first and I’m so in love with this little one already ❤
@@ravinnichole2823 it really is the way to go 😊
You are! You're building a baby! I relate to the sickness, be careful and keep those feet up!-) Wont be but a few seconds and you'll have grandkids!-)
My poor mom was staying at my house to take care of my kids. She locked herself in the garage. The garage door opener was broken so she had to pry the heavy old door open and crawl out under it into the rose bushes! I miss her tons😢
I’m becoming THAT grandma! I had a fabulous example. My mother & sister were driving on the interstate and were cut off by a semi. My sister said, “Mom, flip that guy off for me!” My mother had to use one hand to fold four fingers down on the opposite hand, but she got the job done! She was in her 70s at the time.
58 year old great-grandma here and I love watching your videos 😊 Thank you for making us laugh 😆
58 year old great grandma? How old where you when you had your kid?
@@olly2027 I had my son at 19. He had his son at 19 if my grandson has a child when he is 18 I will be 57 and a great grandma.
@@olly2027 Probably the same age as me when my daughter was born. 24.
I am also 58, but do not have any grandchildren sadly.
I’ll be 56 in April and have 5 grandkids! (3 sons…2 are step kids but they may of well be mine!)……
I had a tragedy in my life 6 months ago, and so many days your videos have been the only thing that have made me laugh. Thank you and love you my Duchess of Petty🥔🥔🥔 (Also, when my grandpa's girlfriend left town, my grandma was the one to drive her to the train station❤)
Love grandma, and so sad you’re having a hard time. I’m right here if you ever need to vent it out. Love that you’re getting a good dose of laughter every day though. I’ll be praying for you and yours, bestie. Here’s to life getting just a bit easier day by day 🥂
OMG this was great to watch. My grandma (90y) is on her deathbed right now as I'm writing this. And even though I'm sad that her time is coming to an end, this video made me remember all her funny and petty moments. Grandmas are the best.
Thank you for making my day 🙏🏼❤️
You have to be brave, we are here for you 💜
@@melchiorlise2466 thank you dear 🙏🏼
I became a grammy last year and I can tell you it’s the BEST thing in the WORLD! Well worth all the trouble it is being a mama…love you vids, watch each and every one! Mwah!
The Petty series is my fave!! Love your vids Charlotte! :)
12:30 When Grannie demands her Bday money - Death is literally laying next to her on the bed, and she's got the nerve to play pimp?!?!?!? "Where's my money???? Are you holding out on me???? It's not enough????" Grannie! I can't with her, lol!!
Charlotte, I’ve been watching you since the pandemic! You got me through some tough times post a nasty COVID infection! I am an “older lady” 65 and have to watch you every day to get my daily laughter! Keep being the Petty Queen ….God bless…..Margo
This reminds me of my Grandma and I miss her. R.I.P. Grandma. Love you 💗
I’m 71 yrs young and I can’t always get back up eigther. I feel her.
It wasn't petty but this happened when my 88-year-old Nana was in the hospital. We knew she was going downhill and didn't have much time left so a bunch of my family gathered around her. She looked at my Uncle and told him that she was done having kids and didn't want any more. It made us laugh and eased the tension in the room. I miss my Nana, she was the best.
The Grandmother with the birthday money, had me rolling!!! I was so "invested!"
Petty Grandmas? As a petty grandma I am stoked!!
First gramma says she was lookin for a frozen chicken to cook gumbo "tomorrow". Proper answer to that is "Yes'm. Thank you ma'am!"
The last one with the money grandma cracked me up!
My grandma, the 4th grade school teacher for the entire town for thirty plus years, refused to observe daylight savings time, stop lights that used to be stop signs, and rent hikes by the landlord. No one made her do anything she didn't want to, except the time she bought a car from a former student, and she cursed his name for ten years.
Had to revamp my mother’s nightgowns. She’s so happy that bought her multiple sets of grey and black nighties with white piping and we can unbutton them all the way in front in case of emergency. She has stylish nighties and it does make her feel better.
(no idea why I shared that 😆)
❤ I lost my Nan a few years ago and this made me think of her,my Nan was also smart and put her make up etc on and loved her posh nighties !!one day she stayed at my house and used my make up before I got up well she used my bronzer as face powder and blue eyeliner as eye brow pencil 😂 she literally looked like a glowing clown 🤡,she couldn’t find a mirror but still tried 🤦♀️🥰I couldn’t shop laughing.I miss her so much .❤️❤️
@@joeakaprolifik7735 So happy that brought back happy memories! 🥳🙌🏼🤍
Thank you for sharing that fun time! You gifted me with warm fuzzy love by sharing that moment. ❤️
@@AimeeAimee444 tysm aswell hun 😊🥰🤗it really made me smile 😃
Oh my God I cannot get enough of this. These elderly people are amazing. I respect my elders and just because they're old doesn't mean they are Not gonna go in for the fight. This had me laughing so hard, but in a good way. love you grandma
The one about the pearls before he went to war wasnt petty at all, just Evil and cold. He went to war with a broker heart for NO reason. Id NEVER tell that story ever, but especially not when talking about how much i missed my grandma.. thank god she did that to him tbh, because he deserved SO MUCH BETTER ! can't imagine how hurt and scared and lonely he was..and he still wrote to her. Smh. Fuck that old crow
My mum spent the last 8 years of her life in a nursing home, mainly because she was on oxygen and was pretty much bedridden. Most nights she would sit up late (she was always a night owl reading until 2am when I was a teen...I'd hear dad say "Come on Ivy, put your damn book down and turn out the light" and she would reply "Just one more chapter..." an hour later she would finish the book then go to sleep...) and she would ring up and chat with the local talk back radio guy who was on from about 10 pm until midnight or later. She would find dirty jokes and read them to him on air, and she would tell him stories about growing up during the Depression and War years, stories about the convent she was in during WW2 since her mum couldn't look after her (she was a single mother and only 17 when mum was born) with tales of the nuns and stuff. When she hadn't rung in for a week, he actually rang her nursing home to see if she was ok (she had an infection at the time which had hit her hard) so he asked his listeners to keep her in their thoughts that night. The next day, about 15 bouquets of flowers arrived addressed to her from his listeners. Mum cried and I rang the studio to thank him.
A few years later when she died (it was sudden) he actually came to her funeral and shook my hand saying how she had taken a dull segment of his life and brightened it up with her jokes, her stories and her energy. I thanked him for giving her a life line to hang on to, how she was always asking me for new jokes to tell him and so on. My kids were only 14 and 8 at the time and they still miss her terribly. The saddest part was, her brain was still super sharp right up until the last few days but her body just let her down.
My nephews and my kids all agree that 'Granny Grump' was the best grandma around. She had been more physical with the older kids (I was born 10 years after my siblings - mum had trouble carrying to term), taking them swimming, getting down on the floor playing cars with them, getting totally messy helping her cook cakes and biscuits, you know... granny stuff.
Now I'm a grandma to two munchkins and I look to her for inspiration. I miss her so much every day even though it's been 11 years - she is still looking over my shoulder and encouraging me to march to my own drum, to be the best I can be.
I had a bad day. Thank you for making me feel better, Charlotte. These grandmas makes me miss mine. Can we get a part 2?
I AAAM a petty grandma lol. When the bbl's were becoming popular MY grandma suddenly added her 2 cents..."oh mija don't worry everyones ass looks the same BENT OVER" 🤣🤣 I miss her
my grandma's funeral is tomorrow. she was the last of my grandparents and unfortunately i have to miss it because of midterms. this video came at a good time to appreciate our grandmothers. she always encouraged me and my sisters to find a man with a job 🙏
you really should've skipped those midterms honey you could always retake those you can only go to her funeral once
My husband's grandmother is 96. She still goes to the gym and has a THRIVING social life. Unfortunately, she had a stroke this past week and is in the hospital. She is seriously the strongest person I know. She is actually recovering faster than I thought she would. She is amazing.
Hope she is doing a lot better by now !
Paused this video and read every single comment here. Loved the stories and even laughed out loud a couple times! You have some good people in your Audience Charlotte, and you deserve it! Love you much, glad to be a part of it❤😊
My grandma lives in a super nice retirement home and it’s hilarious hearing her stories lol. Talking about everyone trying to be friends with her and this random dude hitting on her that she avoids. 😂
Just became a grandma a year ago and it has been the best time of my life! Don't get me wrong .. I loved being a mom but being a grandma is a whole nother level lol. It's amazing ❤️🥰
I miss my grandmother so much! I appreciate this content. It gave me a moment with her this morning 🥰💛
i laughed so hard with the lady that took all her grandson's money.makes me miss my gg more than ever
I work at a hospital and in our therapy pool(pre Covid),we had a community pool program in our therapy pool. I swear the older people were so much drama! lol one time I had a lady kick another patient in the pool and he yelled at her and they’re fighting.. and I had to call our therapy director because I was over telling grown ass people to cut it out. Lol it was worse than like little kids.
My grandma is so sassy, it's unreal. Love her.
This year is my 60th around the sun. I've hit my stride. I'm retired now, but when I was working as an RN in a small town dementia care unit. I was sitting behind the nurses station and overheard two little old rivals having an argument. I don't know what started it but one came out with 'I bet you never had a man give you good sex all your life' , to which the other replied 'At least I didn't sleep with everyone in town'. I stifled my laughter.
I’m torn between laughing and crying… miss my grandma so very much 😇!!! She was hilarious! To all the grandma’s out there; you are precious 💕🥰💕!
6:35 sounds like amber heard 😂 my nana died 15 years ago and my nanny died last year on October 20th and it was sad 😢 she was on dialysis she couldn’t take it anymore she was going downhill while she was living they made a big deal on what she ate they say oh she can’t have that it’s too salty or this because it’s too sweet something ridiculous and my momma hated it she was like just give her what she wants who cares she ain’t got much to live so let her spend it on what she wants to eat geez 🙄 she was 87 I remember she would have these suckers and we would go in the kitchen and get one and these cookies that was good she had pictures on her refrigerator we would play Yahtzee and cards she had these books that was fairytales like jack and the beanstalk and little red riding hood and others and wrote her name in them I would go over there and read them every time she had a room with a table and chairs a closet full of games and photos and these bears we would go in there and eat and play games and look at photos me and my cousins would go into her bedroom and play and look at these jewelry she had she had a tv stand with photos on each shelf and above the tv was senior photos of her grandkids she had a photo of my family when I was little and had it hung above her couch and a little table with pictures of my cousins and my family from where we went to the beach and other stuff we have a ton load of memories from her house and it’s sad because I can’t even remember anything from my nana’s house it’s because I was 4 so I don’t remember much and I wish I did even though I don’t remember much I still miss her she would sit in the corner of my house in this chair we still have and this aunt jemima doll in her kitchen that was tall it’s in my cousins house I just miss her and I cry every time 😢I wish she was still here her name was Betty jo and my nanny’s was Lucy we used to call her sometimes nanny Lucy 😂
The last grandmother I would love for her to be mine. Amazing!! Love her.
I'm a grandma, but not sure I'd consider myself an older lady.... yet.... lol.... I never miss one of your vids Charlotte. Some days my "continence aids" are put under serious pressure, and today's vid was one of them! My only wish is to live long enough to be as much trouble to my children as they were to me.... just like some of these ladies!!!
My grandma lost her husband in her 40s and never remarried. She was used to doing as she pleased, but at 80, they took her driver's license (by the way, she was like a roller coaster on those bluegrass hills in Kentucky). Anyway, my father was driving us all to church one day (he was her son), and we were running a little late, so he was going at a pretty good clip. Outta nowhere, a cop shows up, lights and siren, and pulls him over, giving him a ticket for speeding. As we headed off to church, Grandma said, "Sure. You take away MY license, but who ends up getting a ticket?" I about died!
Birthday money grandma has me UNABLE TO BREATHE, I cannot. I have new old lady goals. 🤣🤣🤣
