Knock knock knock! Rollin over opening my eyes someone's knocking on my door.

"Who is it?"

"Alexis, Girl you still sleep its going on 2 pm and you still in bed?" getting up to open the door.

Sitting at the edge of the bed putting on my bedroom slippers and robe. I didn't even brush my teeth yet and she over here this early.

"What's up"

"Girl wake up I want you to come with me to Red house so we can go to the mall"

"Did you forget? I told you today is November 3rd it's my great grandma Thelma's birthday today. I was going over there to spend some time with her. I still have to go get her a gift to"

"Oh yeah, you did tell me that. You could get her a gift from the mall"

"Naw go ahead see do Be-Be wanna go with you"

"Uhh! Ok"

Today is November 3rd 2012, its my great grandmother's birthday. I haven't been spending much time with her so today is her day. Walking to the bathroom so I can freshen up after I got done putting on my clothes I call my grandma.

Ring, ring, ring.... Ring, ring, ring...

"Hello?"

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happyyyy birthdayyy happyyy birthdayyy happyyy birthdayyy tooooo youuuu. Hi grandma this Shrell, I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday and I would like you to know I appreciate everything you did for me since I was born.

I was always on your hip like I was your bone. You always been in my life never left me and always guided me on the right path. I love you so much that words can't explain. I would like for you to enjoy your day, Im coming over later on I have a gift for you to"

"Aww, thank you so much Shrell you about to make me cry. Some of the family came over today for my birthday. I would let them know you coming over, they would love to see you"

"Tell everyone I said hello I would be there by 5:00 PM today. I just have a little running around to do"

"Well ok baby, grandma will see you soon talk to you later grandma love you"

"Ok I love you too" phone hang up.

I have so much running around to do today. First, I have to go find my grandma a gift for her birthday. Then, I'm going to cook her a mini dinner, one thing about my grandma if you really know her you would know she loved her some fish. I would be making her steam fish, jumbo shrimp's, seafood rice, cornbread and some broccoli.

Heading to the bathroom so I can get ready. 30 minutes later I'm walking out the house heading to the car.

"We're should I go get her gift from" thinking out loud.

You know what Im getting grandma a watch. I remember overhearing her talking about getting one.

"Hey Siri, find the nearest jewelry store near me"

" The nearest jewelry store is Cuban and gold Jewelry shop would you like to try that one?"

"Yes"

"Pulling up the directions now" Siri replied.

Looking at the phone to see how far the jewelry store. It's only 10 minutes away from me perfect, that would give me enough time to go pick up my grandma watch and get her food to cook.

Finally arrived to the jewelry store. Getting out the car heading to the front entrance.

"Hi good evening how are you doing today. Are you interested in buying any gold or silver today?"
