OMG. I just got a mass work email that nearly gave me a heart attack, because even though it was about legitimate important stuff, it totally didn't take into account MY STUFF. So I tried to send a not-too-testy email in response, and heard back really quickly that, in fact, they do have a plan that takes into account my stuff, and everything should be fine.
Now I need to get my heart rate back down.
I was considering joining a softball team in the theatre league this summer and then I realized that my brother is now living with a softball Olympian. I can't decide if that's a pro or a con.
Wow.
Six Living Generations of Daughters, From 7 Weeks to 111 Years
ABC News has reported on a family in Charlottesville, Virginia that boasts an amazing six living generations of daughters. The eldest is 111-year-old Mollie Wood (b. 1901) and the youngest is 7-week-old Braylin Higgins (b. 2012). Photographer and neighbor Christian DeBaun saw the opportunity to capture some amazing portraits of the family.
So the baby's great-great-great grandmother is still alive....
msbelle and others might appreciate these posts about how little kids don't know how to play board games properly: [link]
Six generations is bananas. Although my family could do it if my grandmother lived to 111! That grandmother already has an 18 year old great-granddaughter, and she's only like 85.
Epic Tea Time with Alan Rickman.
Except that he makes his tea WRONG.
I have no idea what you are talking about. JUST THIS MORNING I had to explain why mac and I could not play board games unless there were other people playing with us. The child cannot take losing to me over and over again.
I've known grandmothers well under 40 (I think the record was 36), so you could be a 90-year old and have a daughter who's 72, a granddaughter of 54, great-granddaughter of 36, great-great granddaughter of 18, and a newborn.
Yeah, I wanted more about the whole family, not just the oldest lady and her daughter. Fascinating!
But definitely you could have stuff like that without living crazy long. Or, you could have my family where my grandmother died at 92 and only had a grandchild, since she and my mom were both old for their time when they had kids, and my sister and I still haven't had any....
Also, I have no further comment regarding msbelle and games.
