I just finished designing the ad for TM's yearbook that we bought about her.

[Midlodemocrat]

I am a GOOD mommy.

Who knew you were supposed to do this crap? And it will cost me $300. :grr:

[Rhythm]

1. For $300, how big is the ad? Hopefully at least 1/2 page for that kind of dough.

I bought one for my friends and i back in '84 (1/2 page - cost me $75). We had to reshoot and submity the pic several times, because the yearbook-staff's faculty adviser thought my punker friends and i looked "too threatening".
Then they put the ad right across the page from a couple of the redneck boys who were brandishing shotguns! Go figure that one.

[Midlodemocrat]

3. Full page. This school is determined to squeeze every dime I have from me.

It has six pics of her and I wrote something about how proud we are of her, yadayadayada.

2. Ad?

Boxed wine ad?
Bunco dice ad?
Sirius van ad?
:shrug: :hi:

4. Jeebus!! Wasn't that a little sacralegious?

:hide:

[flvegan]

5. It's nice of DS1 to be "sharpening" up the 6 pics of her for the ad.

I do believe that this page will totally MAKE the yearbook.

[Midlodemocrat]

9. It better. It took me forever to get the three kids to sit still for a picture.

6. What the hell is it that you market? Hangover recovery services?

:rofl:

[Midlodemocrat]

10. No, it's an ad that has pics of your kid and you say sappy things for the whole world to see.

I'm totally getting my revenge on her for not doing the dishes.

[sasquatch]

11. Lemme guess, its her on the toilet as a kid

:rofl:

[LeftyMom]

7. We have to take out ads to tell our kids we like them now?

They don't get the hint when we keep feeding them?

[Midlodemocrat]

8. Wait! I'm supposed to feed them?

:yowza:

This will not end well.

[LynneSin]

12. And Midlo - you're not suppose to do this to your kids either.....

[Midlodemocrat]

13. Aw, BabyMidlo sure was cute at that age.

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. Nope. You could be like me, and completely miss the boat on

all the due dates for this...the money for that...

It's a damned good thing that she didn't end up going to the Prom naked.



BTW, every last cookie was thoroughly enjoyed. :hug: :loveya:

[LeftyMom]

16. My mom almost forgot the date of my prom

which was a slight problem, since she was making my dress. She wound up making an ankle-length formal in about a day and a half.

I'm glad they liked them and that Wannabe is doing better. :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. I did not buy the ad, because the ad forms came out when she was

sick. I am a sucky mommy, but most people know that by now.

I did, however, buy here the dress she wanted for graduation on Sunday.

[Midlodemocrat]

17. You are so far from a sucky mommy those words shouldn't

even be allowed in the same sentence in reference to you.

:loveya:
