Is it Bribery or Compromising?
My youngest DD has had a real struggle staying in school all day this last quarter (she's 16 and a Sophmore in High School). This in it's self is a issue for her.
Every day I drop her off at school, finding out later that she skipped out a noon!
It seems that all but one of her friends only have to go half days, so she feels she need to keep them company? I'm not sure where her head is right now.
We have been discussing homeschooling or working school credit. Even though DD may still have to take some online classes just to make up the lesson time that she skipped out on, I'm hoping that the idea while give her the incentive to finish out this year in public school.
What are you gone'a do???? I'm not giving up, I'll keep working with her
Have a great Day!!

Testing her wings
There was one more time they tried the move and that lasted about 5 months.
I think now she has finally made the leap. She left for Texas to see if her and the boyfriend can make a life together. This time she has a plan! She has her own vehicle, she has some office training, her GED, a little money in her pocket and a job interview when she get there. Hallelujah!!!
I'm going to miss her and the Grand baby, but why does she have to move so far away. I guess I need to stock up on frequent flyer mile or get a very economical vehicle.
Have a Great Day!

Who said BBQ's and Rain mix?
.......A day to take a moment out of our busy weekend to remember our Veterans...........
Why is it that when your planning a Great family get together, Mother Nature decides to let it rain big time!!!!??I was hoping to take a picture or two of us all together, but about the time I 'd get the camera out, it started raining again.
We did have a little break in the cloud and walked six blocks to main street where our Chamber of Commerce was putting on a Car Show and street festival.
I still did some grilling, we made the basic picnic menu....steak,baked beans, potato salad, cream cheese stuffed celery and chocolate chip cookies for desert.
Happy Monday

Hi! From a Newbie to Blogging
I'm new to blogging, well.... not really. I've been lurking for about 6 months and I've decided to jump in so you can get to know me.
So here goes...
I'm passionate about prim/country decorating. I love yard sales, auctions, Flea Markets and Thrift stores. It seems I can always find wonderful treasure that would go prefectly in my little cottage. You might label me as a junkett!
My passion has lead me to some wonderful Prim/Country blog sites. The before and after pics are great these Ladies are very creative.
I hope I will be able to post some of my creative moments soon.
Thanks for stopping by.
