ACMESkydiver 0 #1 December 7, 2006 ...and how long will they be staying? Is it a good or a not-so-good thing? Edit: I guess I forgot to answer my own question. We will have 11 in our house for about 2 1/2 weeks: 5 of us, family of 5 in-laws (sis-in-law and her family) for maybe 3 weeks, brother-in-law for 2 1/2 weeks, and 5 more on Christmas day only. And I'm bummed because I don't know when I'll get to see all of my family. BUT...I will be heavily liquored up for about 3 weeks, so if anyone wants to ask me anything outrageous, December would be the time to do it. I am hoping to black out the whole month. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
