This week has been and will continue to be extremely busy. So I have not had a lot of time to blog. We are trying to get last minute things done before graduation on Friday. Tho I am not expecting a house full of family, I like to be prepared in case a few might show up at the last moment. So that means getting the house ready, so far I have cleaned carpets, did some rearranging of furniture, and did a little deep cleaning. I hope to get it all done, but I am running out of time. With Computer Geek working a full time job and Big D working a lot of overtime lately, I have came to depend on Football Star for help. I am so thankful for his help! After graduation, we are having a little Graduation Celebration at the Community Center for the family and friends. Kind of like a Graduation Open House. Here in Tennessee they don't call it "Graduation Open House". That has been the hardest thing for me to get used to because being raised in Indiana and graduating in Indiana, EVERYONE had an "Open House" after graduation. So I instead of calling it an "Open House" for those here in Tennessee, I just started calling it a "Graduation Celebration". So I have been busy getting things ready for that. Then after the "Graduation Celebration", the school has a "Project Graduation" party. For those of you that have not heard of "Project Graduation", it is sponsored by local business, parents, and several fund raisers throughout the year, it is an all NIGHT Lock in for the graduates. Everyone that attends receives a t-shirt, an envelope of money($50-$100), 1 small prize ($25 worth), and 1 large prize ($75-$100 worth). Then they also draw names for laptops and desktop computers. This was started by parents trying to keep kids in a safe DRUG and ALCOHOL free night after graduation. Such a great thing. Full of fun, free food and prizes!! Big D and I have been very involved in it. Helping raise the money with fund raisers and helping run booths. We are chaperoning that night too!! So if I don't post until Monday, you will know why!!
Until next time.....
God Bless~
