Just won a $150 on a $5 scratcher where all 20 games were winners. Never had that before.

Got to meet my newest grand nephew Friday, I'm not sure if there is anything more relaxing than a new baby sleeping on your chest.
Yeah I'm not sure if it's great or grand but I rolled with grand like you do with grandparents.
No I didn't take it that way, I really don't know which is correct. I figure grand doesn't make me sound quite as old.
What do you do with them?

I sometimes have to care, but I just hit up a consanguinity chart.
I'm good on cousins, second cousins, cousins once or twice or more removed. Where I stumble is with the great/grand nieces & nephews. It's not consistent in common vernacular. I refer to my nieces' children as my grandnieces/nephews, but their mother refers to me as their great-aunt. Oy.
Thanks! I think it's grand too, mostly for consistancy's sake. But you very rarely hear people say grand aunt or grand uncle. It's weird.
I am a great uncle to my grandnieces and grandnephews. I prefer Greatest Uncle.
I don't go any further than my sisters kids, their kids and 1st cousins.
I'm supposed to be a great uncle to my grand nieces & nephews but let's face it, I'm mediocre at best.
Changing lanes on a solid white line? Ummmm...not supposed to.
(although I did do that just today)
Today we saw passing and changing lanes over solid white on I35 northbound, north of Des Moines. SMH.
