For Grandma....

I'm posting this because my grandma was very upset at a family member for throwing something away before letting her see it. What could it be, you ask? Well, I'll tell you. It's my family member's gallstones. GALLSTONES?!.....Yes, gallstones. I know.... ANYWAY, so my family member got her gallstones out several years ago. There was three of them (the doctor's kept one.) and they're about the size of big marbles. She kept them, that was until recently when reading through an organizational book on cleaning out your house she came across the line, "Throw away your gallstones!". Can't be much more straight forward than that! So, of course, said family member couldn't just throw them out before she had a chance to.....break them open and see what's inside! (Haven't you always been curious?) So I get this call from my family member, "Christy...you have to see this. It is so cool! It is just so cool! I cracked open my gallstone and it looks like a geode! It has all these layers and they're all sparkley! It's so cool. You have to come over and take a picture for me. I wonder what makes it sparkle like that? I mean, what was going on in my life during those first layers?" (They're the sparkliest.) - My family member is so awesome! So, what did I do? Of course, I went over and took pictures! And guess what, they really were sparkley! Very sparkley! Kind of cool. Okay, so now you're grossed out, but at least you've learned something. I bet they didn't teach you this stuff in science class! I mean, how many other crazy families do you know that take pictures of this kind of thing and post it on the web for their Grandma? Just us! We rock! (Or at least Gallstone! Ha ha!)- For a more detailed view, click on the pic!
