I decided many years ago to ignore the bad ones.

So I have my husband and my two boys and thats it.

And if they mess up their gone too.... at 25 years now, so far so good.

I love my family :D Those who are annoying, I can avoid. I love the coolness of finding out new things about people you have known for decades. I just found out my g'pa has been refinishing an architecturally historical sailboat--by himself--for years now. So many stories to be uncovered...

My grandpa was the coolest :D He died Easter of '09, my fiance and I found him. But we now live in his house, which aside from clothes/very personal belongings/etc., all of his old stuff is here. We have had a blast going through his large collection of camera equipment, rock hunting and jewlers stuff!! Not to mention our garage full of tools/machines from top to bottom.

Oh and my fav, his guns :) I'm short and have a hard time fitting barrels to my arm length, but his fits me like a glove!!

Sorry, total hijack :p
