How about this....Wife has 3 sisters. When they are all talking, they each refer to another family member as their own. For example, each one will say "My mom came over tonight." Instead of "mom" or "our mom". They do it for mom, dad or sister....it doesn't matter...its always my _____.

We do the same in my family! Also, to save on name confusion/forgetfullne​ss the sibs refer to each other as 'brother' and/or 'sister' (this has stretched to include spouses, too, lol) cousin's are simply 'cousin', aunt and uncle simply 'aunt' or 'uncle'. You get the drift
There are actually inflections in the way we address each other that identify which brother or sister we are speaking too,

Goooooooooood evening people!

Beautiful pictures were posted today! Sometimes I wish I could jump into the computer screen, through the posted pictures and land where you guys are shooting because it always looks so beautiful!

Please alert me prior to bursting through my monitor.....

We had a bit of a positive side about Dad, he is on no meds, the only IV's he has are a saline solution to keep his liquids up, and some nitroglycerin which is fairly standard after a hear attack I guess. He first spoke this afternoon repetitively saying "Help me up" and this evening when I was in, I asked him if he wanted me to shave him, and he clearly whispered "Please". He still rarely has his eyes open, and then seems to have trouble focusing. The good thing is that he is moving into the right direction, and we can only hope that it keeps going that way. It is now over 6 days since the heart attack. He gets an EEG tomorrow, and an MRI in a few more days though he will need to calm down first, as he thrashes a lot right now trying, we believe, to get comfortable. I guess he needs his brain without sedatives to do the MRI properly and must stay still for over half an hour.

Anyhoo, I am beat, and am off to bed. I must get some work stuff done tomorrow as I am way behind.

This is good news, Jim! I am so happy to hear it

Cat and Marian are knee deep in Phantom by now. I wonder if Wade gets to take Josh to Vegas when he turns 16

Ugh. I hate that. I'm very sensitive to perfume, also. I hate it when a woman who smells like she took a bath in the crap walks by me. I can't breathe for the next half hour. Perfume and cologne should be banned.

I think it should be treated similar to smoking. I have sensitivities to perfume that make me uncomfy. I have a friend that gets thrown into an ashmatic attack.

The auction was shot in a dark barn under mostly florescent light at 3200ISO and wide open in most cases. I used my 70-200mm f/2.8, 24-70, and Leyla's 50mm f/1.4

Great shots even with nasty light!

Non-squish.

I've been away at a friend's stag weekend. It was extremely tiring, I'm still tired and I want to go back to sleep now...

What did I miss?

GMAE

Hopefully today turns out to be a great day.
1. It's hot as hell.
2. my sigma 10-20mm should arrive today
3. hopefully the sellers accept the counter offer and we can move forward with buying a house!

Hi Pete!

Wow... Nice work on the house Kody. That's a real stressful place to be. We lost out on a couple of offers we made before we landed this place. Good thing too, we love it here.

Yeah, it bothers the wife more than me but it still gets to be a lot. I do most of the financial side of the deal and she deals with the Realtor. That way neither of us is too overwhelmed.

Yes, Ali got her heart set on a couple of places, when I just looked at the practicalities of the houses (she was thinking of them as being potential homes).

After our first offer was turned down, I just changed my thinking to getting whatever was suitable in the area/budget we wanted (with the thought that whatever we got, we'd make a home out of).

I've kind of gotten to the same point. The place we're currently waiting on is in a really nice neighborhood. It's a little out dated, kitchen, heating and a few other things but it's a great place to make our home and has loads of potential. First thing we want to do is modify the kitchen, then update the heating.. Some ancient baseboard heat from the 60's possibly. I'll get a photo of them and share them later. You can see it in one of the listing photos but not real well. I want to make some big changes to the yard as well. I can already see myself living there which is cool and difficult at the same time if it doesn't work out.
