Really? Not kidding? My word…. so .. the A/B status came from passing the star athlete up the grade levels??
Good Grief.

Oh the stories I could tell! From the kids I am around at school to the people at work. For the ones at work, I wonder how they ever completed the application – much less how they passed the tests to be hired! Scary! Ryan wrote a report the other day and I caught a few instances where he used “text slang” instead of spelling a word right. He didn’t even realize he did it. I’m as guilty as the next for using such slang but it is so unprofessional. Sad. A brain “poot” is one thing but ignorance or poor education is entirely different! Ok, off my soap box now.
Love you!

Hi Mary,
Just recently refound your website! Love it!!!
I think we should be happy that he cared enough to ask how to spell a word, as so many (of all ages) don’t seem to care enough to bother to even ask any more, even if it is a word they should know how to spell as easily as their own name!
I wanted to let you know how beautiful your files are & how beautifully they cut!!! I’ve posted 3 cards using 3 of your files on my blog @ http://www.maricopastamper.blogspot.com. Thank you for so kindly sharing!
