The last one?

  Heard from my parents that my last great aunt is on the way out. She was the youngest sister of my paternal grandfather who died over 20 years ago (in fact a week before I first met my wife). As far as I know there are no more relatives on either side of my family in the "great" range that are still alive. All my aunts and uncles are still around although some of them are now over 70 but it is weird to think that she is the last of a whole generation of my family. There might be one great aunt on my maternal grandmothers side still alive but I don't think so, you lose track of them all especially when you consider one grandmother of mine was one of something like 13 children.

  Another day of server upgrading today, lots of boring fiddling around for hours and making sure it doesn't fail badly like it did last time. Quite a few things to organise as well, car servicing, doctor visits and the big one of moving. Busy busy busy.
