I have an announcement to make!
That's always been a phrase that makes me nervous. People don't walk into the room and grab a bullhorn to offer something trivial. What follows that remark will be something big, interesting, or important and hopefully welcome!
This utterance might precede a happy notification that a grandchild is on the way, someone is engaged, or perhaps that your new college graduate received an offer for the job of their dreams! But it's not always that way.
