The graduations I've attended have been very different, especially the college ones. In fact, my husband and I recently traveled you the east coast to attend one, completely voluntarily, for a young man not even related to us.<br /><br />I don't know if it's the luck of the draw in the ceremonies or a difference of attitude going in our some other factor. Hope the final one breaks the streak!Coeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06130250489695215525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-78205778281286978942018-06-23T16:12:52.180-05:002018-06-23T16:12:52.180-05:00I have absolutely loathed every graduation ceremon...I have absolutely loathed every graduation ceremony I have attended including all of my own ( college and law school and all before) and all of those for my kids (all their Jr high high school and for one of the 2 college graduation...one to go). They always seem to not focus on the comfort of those attending instead treating you like some criminal in for a minor offense,.,walk now, stand now, sit now....it's cold or rainy...too bad for you. They seem wayyyy more focused on the presenters than those they are supposedly there for ( the students). I absolutely dread the next one we have to attend.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831580101168618303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-82929845905704573552018-06-23T09:05:53.044-05:002018-06-23T09:05:53.044-05:00Ms. Fleming went way up in my estimation.

Much more than just a pretty voice.<br /><br />Two literary takes on plugging your work.<br /> "None but a blockhead would write except to be paid for it." Dr. Johnson<br /><br /><br />"And I dream of the days when work was scrappy,<br /><br />And rare in our packets was the mark of the mint,<br /><br />When we were angry and poor and happy, <br />And proud of seeing our names in print."
