"A little overwhelming" is commonly used by people who experience something that they cannot comfortably deal with, whether from a physical or mental point of view. The experience might be a fundamentally negative one, but there are also cases where the experience might have been generally positive if not for its intensity. Examples of a generally negative experience might be; I found the smell a little overwhelming. I found the sight of the blood a little overwhelming Examples of an experience that might otherwise have been positive. I found their hospitality a little overwhelming. Her kindness was a little overwhelming.

It is syntactically correct. Implied in "our incomes" is the personal pronoun "we". Thus, this sentence means "Even though we have modest incomes, we enjoyed ourselves immensely" or "even though we don't earn a lot of money, we enjoyed ourselves immensely". Semantically, the implication is that these people didn't have to spend a lot of money - which, in any case, they don't have - in order to enjoy themselves.

If a person claims they have "half a mind" to do something, it basically means they are tentatively considering doing something, and this may or may not eventually be done. In other words, the person's intent is not particularly strong. It does not suggest that he or she faces any particular dilemma; indeed, they may forget about their idea altogether. There is another - similar - expression commonly used in the UK, i.e. "toying with the idea of". Thus, "I have half a mind to join that aerobics club" basically means the same as "I'm toying with the idea of joining that aerobics club". The expressions "torn" and "torn between" mean that the person faces a real dilemma over what course of action to take. But "torn up" has an entirely different meaning. It means that a person has been seriously hurt in an emotional sense by something that has happened to them.

In the context to which you are probably referring, both "combinations" and "passwords" perform the same function, i.e. to provide security protection. In this regard, "combination" is normally associated with locks (for example, bicycle locks or the locks on safe deposit boxes). Also, combinations tend to be numeric, using digits rather than letters. An example here would be the combination 5-4-4-2. These days, passwords are usually associated with computers and logging into accounts. While some people may use numeric passwords, it is probably the case that most passwords are written either in letters (hence the term "password") or a combination of letters and digits.

HAVE or DID Example of HAVE: We've had to work really hard since we started this project. Otherwise, we wouldn't have got as far as we HAVE In this case, the project is not yet completed and the progress may continue. Example of DID: We had to work really hard when on that project. Otherwise, we wouldn't have got as far as we DID. This is used when looking back; in this case, work on the project has finished. Thus, no more progress can or will be made.
