So, with a whole big move to do only, you know, on Monday, I have now spent a couple of hours compiling the family e-mail address list, because it's been pissing me off for years that we don't have an official one and when my cousin sent an e-mail to tell us she just got engaged, I recognized that that was way more important that putting shit in boxes.
I've gotten a couple of updates, and compliments on how that's a good idea, and looking at the list is a bit dizzying because you know how seeing a word several times in a row makes it stop making sense? Yeah, well after looking back over the list, I decided to count. That's 48 people. My grandparents, my aunts and uncles, my cousins, and our spouses. There are no children on the list (I think, I'm pretty sure my cousin Stevie is 18 by now) so that's just the adults.
People think I exaggerate when I say I have a big family. I do not.
