She can send you back to your mother anytime she wants... this assuming your mother has legal custody of you... its HER house.
And even if your Grandmother has legal custody... she can throw you out of her house when you turn 18.

I would say we need more information. What is the custody arrangement? Why are you living with your grandmother instead of your mother? It sounds like your grandmother is bringing you for an arranged visitation visit. If it is time to leave legally, you cannot stay.
Please give us more information.

My guess? Driving "up" from California - but that's just a guess.

Ooh I get it now.
That COULD be just a style of speech though.
