Desde que mi abuelo falleci贸, hace dos a帽os y medio aproximadamente, decidimos traernos a mi abuela del Zulia (la ciudad donde ellos viv铆an) para que no se quedara viviendo sola en su casa.
Since my grandfather passed away, about two and a half years ago, we decided to bring my grandmother from Zulia (the city where they lived) so that she would not be left living alone at home.
Desde que mi abuela qued贸 sola, sin su compa帽ero de vida, pas贸 a ser la consentida de la familia, actualmente vive en la misma ciudad de nosotros, vive en Matur铆n. Estado Monagas.
Since my grandmother was left alone, without her life partner, she became the spoiled of the family, she currently lives in the same city as us, she lives in Maturin. Monagas State.
Mis abuelos tuvieron 5 hijos, 4 mujeres y 1 var贸n (una de esas mujeres es mi mam谩) todos la atienden y est谩n pendientes de ella a su manera, sin embargo, solo 2 viven en la misma ciudad que ella actualmente, estos son mi t铆o y mi mam谩, las dem谩s hijas est谩n dispersas en el mundo, una sigue en el Zulia, y las otras dos est谩n en otros pa铆ses.
My grandparents had 5 children, 4 females and 1 male (one of those females is my mom) all of them take care of her in their own way, however, only 2 live in the same city as she does now, these are my uncle and my mom, the other daughters are scattered around the world, one is still in Zulia, and the other two are in other countries.
Aunque ella vive oficialmente con mi t铆o siempre est谩 de visita en mi casa, suele pasar el d铆a con nosotros compartiendo y acompa帽谩ndonos mientras 茅l est谩 trabajando o atendiendo otras cosas, abuela pocas veces est谩 sola.
Although she officially lives with my uncle she is always visiting my house, she usually spends the day with us sharing and accompanying us while he is working or attending to other things, grandma is rarely alone.
Hace unos d铆as decidi贸 que quer铆a volver al Zulia a visitar su casa, pues ya tiene casi dos a帽os sin volver y aunque la t铆a que sigue all谩, m谩s otros conocidos siempre est谩n pendiente de cuidar su casa y hacerle los mantenimientos necesarios, ella quiere ya atenderla, ir a ver como esta y ver que le hace falta, tambi茅n quiere visitar las amistades que all谩 le quedan y estar unos d铆as por all谩 con su otra hija 驴y como decirle que no? Si esa es la ciudad donde ella hizo toda su vida, ah铆 est谩n todos sus recuerdos y est谩 su casa con la que guarda una conexi贸n que no se acabar谩 as铆 nada m谩s.
A few days ago she decided she wanted to go back to Zulia to visit her house, she has not been back for almost two years and although the aunt who is still there, plus other acquaintances are always taking care of her house and doing the necessary maintenance, she wants to take care of it, go to see how it is and see what it needs, she also wants to visit her friends there and spend a few days there with her other daughter and how can she say no? If that is the city where she made her whole life, there are all her memories and there is her home with which she keeps a connection that will not end just like that.
Normalmente, mi abuela no cocina ni hace quehaceres de hogar, ya es una se帽ora de 81 a帽os que todav铆a se conserva gracias a Dios muy bien, pero no nos gusta ponerla a hacer m谩s cosas de la cuenta, los pasatiempos de ella son la costura, el tejido, y la televisi贸n (es adicta a sus novelas) sin embargo, en vista de que nos iba a dejar unos cuantos d铆as sin ella, abuela decidi贸 consentirnos la noche antes de su viaje con unas ricas arepitas de pernil.
Normally, my grandmother does not cook or do housework, she is an 81 year old lady who is still very well preserved, thank God, but we do not like to put her to do more things than necessary, her hobbies are sewing, knitting, and television (she is addicted to her soap operas), however, since she was going to leave us a few days without her, grandma decided to spoil us the night before her trip with some delicious arepitas de pernil (pork leg arepitas).
Por supuesto que no pod铆a perder esta oportunidad para documentar el momento, ya que tal vez para muchos sea algo com煤n cenar arepas hechas por sus abuelas, pero como les coment茅 hace un rato, para nosotros no lo es porque ella ya es una nena consentida y m谩s bien nosotros siempre la estamos atendiendo para que ella no se ocupe en ese tipo de actividades.
Of course I could not miss this opportunity to document the moment, because maybe for many people it is something common to have arepas made by their grandmothers for dinner, but as I told you a while ago, for us it is not because she is already a spoiled child and we are always taking care of her so that she does not get busy in that kind of activities.
El pernil para el relleno de las arepas ya lo ten铆a preparado con anterioridad, as铆 que solo monto sus arepitas, las relleno y nos sirvi贸 a todos para cenar.
The pernil for the filling of the arepas was already prepared in advance, so he just assembled his arepitas, stuffed them and served them to all of us for dinner.
隆隆Qu茅 rico es compartir estos momentos con ella!! 鉂わ笍 solo le pido a Dios que le d茅 muchos a帽os m谩s de vida y salud para seguir cultivando recuerdos a su lado.
How nice it is to share these moments with her!!! 鉂わ笍 I only ask God to give her many more years of life and health to continue to cultivate memories by her side.
Amigos, estos son momentos que no tienen precio y que llenan el alma 鉂わ笍 Espero que todos ustedes los vivan igual que yo.
Friends, these are priceless and soul-filling moments 鉂わ笍 I hope you all experience them as I do.
