The family... We were a strange little band characters trudging through life sharing disease and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together... An that's my family.....

Not to mention sharing the same clothes. My brother and I usually shares the same clothes. I remember also several occasions that I had to borrow Dad's leather boots and his formal dresses attending several formal occasions. Sometimes when Dad's forgot where he left his toothbrush, he uses any available one's he sees in the bathroom. But he never uses mine as it is as grouse as his.lol

Hi tinsky, I like that quote. That quotation is from Erma Louise Bombeck (Feb.21,1927-April22,1996).She was an American humorist who achieved great popularity for her newspaper column that described suburban home life humorously from the mid-1960s until the late 1990s. Bombeck also published 15 books,most of which became best-sellers. From 1965 to 1996,Erma Bombeck wrote over 4,000 newspaper columns chronicling the ordinary life of a midwestern suburban housewife with broad,and sometimes eloquent,humor.By the 1970s. her witty columns were read, twice weekly, by thirty million readers of 900 newspapers of the U.S. and Canada.Anyway my source of this is WIKIPEDIA.

I like your writing style... this sounds like a tempting snippet of a good book!! Do you plan to develop this into a biographical novel?? I think it would be interesting
