Senioritis

A condition peculiar to high school seniors, hence the subword “senior” in senioritis. Symptoms include a general apathy towards classes, homework, future i.e. college applications, restlessness and a “cannot do” attitude to surmountable school load.
Guess who has a High School Senior in her house? What a long week this has been! No blogging time for momma. Last week was Senior Week at my son’s high school. Every day there were Senior events leading up to the weekend of Prom. Parent’s had the option of creating a senior stip to go on their child’s locker.
Step one, purchase locker. My son does not use one so we did not buy one. $3 dollars later and we had a locker. Second step, sort through 18 years of his life in photos! What a job that was! I started on the bottom of his strip with pictures of when he was born and filled the space all the way up to Senior year. Yes, that took hours!!
So many photos and not enough room!
Whew! All done and I love this Senior Strip idea! It stays up through graduation and then it’s a great keepsake which will hang in his room! Have you seen this done before? My older son did not have this project for Senior year but I was happy to have completed this project for my Andrew. My baby who will graduate on May 27th. Tissues Please.
It’s all good. ~ Donna

Hi Wendy! I have been off line for a week as well. So sorry to hear about your back! Get well soon! Hope that massage does the trick!

What a great job you did! I’ve never seen anything like that – we certainly
didn’t have that when I was in high school. It must have been very difficult
to select only certain pictures – I’d want to include them all. I’m sure each
one brings back special memories.
Sorry I’m just now seeing this. I’ve been off-line for a while – I hurt my back
at our garage sale last Saturday. I can barely move. I have scheduled myself
a massage for tomorrow though!
Have a great weekend!
