Charity Chatterbox and her 7 Brothers

Yep, I have 7 brothers. God help me.
I have 3 ultra-responsible brothers who are independently successful and good, 2 who have learned from their mistakes and remade themselves into responsible independent men who are now good, and 2 who are less than stellar: they are lazy, selfish, careless, moochers who are delusional, and ignorant of reality... 2 from each group are coming over for Thanksgiving.
Now, I had 2 sisters as well. As a girl, they were like my Evil older Stepsisters or the two sisters who betrayed Belle in Beauty and the Beast. Now, one died shortly after we reconciled 2 years ago and one is a tragic beauty herself - we've reconciled and are fiercely loyal to one another, especially having list our big sister so young. She won't be here for Thanksgiving unfortunately - there are still hard feelings between some members of my family...
My Mother is a hopeless tomboy and my (Step)Dad is all guy's-guy. My one niece won't be here, and two of my 5 nephews will be. 1 of my 2 sisters-in-law who, bless-ed be The Lord! are girly Southern Belles to my Urban-Hillbilly Girl (I may be hillbilly, but I was raised and AM city; I just know how to survive the hills if I must. Dirt is dirty :P ). So, that's 1 girly ally and 10 football fanatics. God be with us!
But, wait! The nephews are 23 months and 7 years old; so football is no fun yet. Ha!
Conclusion???
We play games and...!!! Shop online while we nibble on chocolates, sip cappuccino and gab! Yay >^_^<
