First of all, I'd like to thank my buddy Russ for the entry that died. 2 comments, and one was from you. Dude, are you REALLY as weird as me? I thought it was a joke. Your questions just MIGHT be as lame as my journal. I'm just sayin'. Maybe you should align yourself with cooler folks. 'Nuff said.
I'm designing Brett's graduation announcement/invitation so that it can be printed at work, at a huge discount. I'm getting input from his stepmother (and his Dad) but could use some more input. Would enough folks give CREATIVE input here? Would it bore you? Should I keep it private and deal with personal issues personally? Do more than 2 people read this, or are Mom and Russ using alternate user names to comment?
Kevin and I are making an agreement. It's a pact, but that word looks like I'm spelling it wrong, so I'm going with "agreement" OK? Once ever 3 months or so, one takes the kids south to K's mom's house, and leaves the other one for a full 2 days of solitude. We decided this while the trumpet, drums, and keyboard were all going full-blast, and not all on the same song. I'm just sayin'.
I plan to take the girls South within a month. Kevin gets a weekend. It's loud here. It's fun and great and wild, but everyone needs "down time" sometimes. Are we bad parents for wanting "down time" or are we working together to keep the sanity? I prefer to go with the latter.
OK, enough veering from topic-to-topic? Probably. 'Night.

Hey! I embrace my weird/lame inner child. Grad announcements are basically just to say "give me gifts and money". Be direct. But that's just me. Weird. Lame. Direct.
xo,
Russ
Hey, man...I LIVE for the nights when Jesse takes the kids to the movies. I get a whole three hours of quiet. The bliss!
Grad announcements? Can you do something like 'I made it through 12 years of school. Show me the money!' ? LOL What?! It's what we all wanna say.... :-P

You both need a little downtime. The most downtime I get lately is locking myself in the bathroom! LOL. Plus the kids get to spend some time with Kevin's Mom right? Win-Win situation, I say...expecially if you are the parent at home that weekend!

You have a windows computer, right? If so, you probably have some program that will use Word files. I haven't looked there, but on the Microsoft.com site they have a lot of clipart and templates for all kinds of stuff.. you might find something to kickstart you there! AND, we wanna see <LOL>
Phhhhttttt! we are all weird, my excuse for avoiding all meme things lately is lack of a decent computer... they sent mine off for the -fourth- time for repair on Monday. Good news? if they don't get it fixed this time they owe me a new computer. But, I would just like mine back, fixed and familiar <sigh>
Hey, Rachel, I'd love to weigh in on your graduation announcements. Bring 'em on! I can handle it. Really. Blessings, Penny http://journals.aol.com/firestormkids04/FromHeretoThere
