my memorial weekend has been depressing and good at the same time. i went to mancelona to visit my grandma's grave, and me and my family [the main house and the branch families] all went and prettied up the plain sodden ground below her tomb stone.
we were gonna make an awesomely big garden in front of her tombstone, so we pulled all of the sod off of the grave and started to aline with a fensing, but then some jack ass told us we couldnt make the garden that big, so we cut off about 3 quarters of the small garden and made it even smaller. we put flowers at the top of the tomb stone, and put landscape tile on the ground in the fenced garden area and then put some awesome slate on it. we still have alot to do, and i cant really explain all of it in my state of mind. i am currently going through a weird buzz right now.
but yeah, while i was there at the graveyard, we stummbled apon the story of a tragic death. little dores day [11 years old died in 1999] died of cancer. she loved wildlife and lions, and on the back of her beautiful tomb stone was a poem. i will write it out when i get it on paper. her tomb stone is polished marbel. its pitch black and has faded colored panthers and lions on it. and on the area around the grave, there are statues of panthers and lions.
all i can say was, i didnt cry for my grandma who lived to the rightfull age of 67 years old, but for the little girl who lived only 11 years and died of cancer. grandma had cancer too though. . .
it has left me contemplating on what i want when i die. well, i like wolves more than any other animal in gods green earth. and black it my favorite color. and i like anime and poetry. i dont plan on dying any time soon, but if god will it, i want a good tomb stone for when i do die.
and i would want to make a few things clear too, but i will save that for paper for everyone to read when i am actually dead. ^_^ im not for the sappy and tear jerking things while im still alive. it hasnt really gotten me anywhere in the past. . .
but yeah, i need advise of tomb stone designs!!! help me!!! ^_^

if i had a choice in the matter i would want an eerie tombstone that scared people - like w/a legend of how i will come back to life and eat their hearts - hahaha
