Well, each of my parents has 5 siblings who all had kids, so I have 2 siblings who have significant others and 2 kids each, and 17 1st cousins on my mom's side and 14 on my dad's side, many of whom now have their own children (I think we're at 18 or 19 now, but I don't facebook, so it could be over 20), plus the 12 uncles and aunts, and then there are the in-laws who have a less tidy structure, with 4 parents, 1 full sibling with 4 kids and 2 step-kids and 3 grand kids, 2 half siblings with 2 kids and a step kid, and 2 step siblings with 3 kids. And her mom had 4 siblings...
The big reunions I remember as a kid (for my great grandparent's families) were well over 100 people. Because they all had 4-6 kids because that's how you ran a family farm.
That the left lane is the fast lane in traffic. Nope. It's for the people who want to go fast, but are nuts to butts in the mountain curves, so it ends up as a constant stop and go wave. I'll chug along in the 80% less busy right lane and sneak in when the "fast" drivers hit the brakes in the next curve so I can pass the actual slow cars.
Put together the upper cabinets for the closet after drilling shelf pin holes and sanding. Hoping to get 2 coats of primer on today with the fancy new hvlp sprayer if I can find the time while it's light out.
I had a dream 15+ years ago where I walked onto a school bus holding a 5ft long tube of fudge striped cookies over my shoulder and Peter Jennings looked up and said "Nice strip of cookies." I was so confused, I woke up and laughed.
I was trying to convey that the implication runs the other way, i.e. that because he is delivering current, accurate information (and is honest about his perspective), that he is trustworthy.
Crashing and burning, apparently...
