a social butterfly, the center of attention and love to be the one to entertain everyone. I find it odd! are you or you know anyone this way?

i’m weird like that too, like i’ll be all crazy in math class, then in english class i won’t talk at all.

i am like that too.. i just feel more comfortable around certain people and i am 36 years old i remember growing up as a kid my cousin was a beautiful singer dancer type and me..the chubby artistic one. they always tried to get me to “go up there and sing and dance with your cousin” i hated that ****… i still do i cant even talk in front of my family without sounding all strange.. but then again i am a hairdresser and i have people laughing all day. just depends on my situation. but i am known to have an outgoing personality for sure.. weird huh

……………..

Yeah, that is strange. Maybe it’s because you know your friends accept you, but you don’t know if you family feels the same way. Like if you sing/dance you don’t know how your family would react but you know your friends would laugh at you and join in.

…………….

Family have a tendency to think its ok to belittle or criticize each other. They are suppose to be supportive and encouraging but unfortunately that has become something that is rare. You probably instinctively know this so you fear being yourself around them.

i just wanted to know since they’re alotta ppl divorcing right now…..

current statistics say 50-50.

50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second and 74% of third marriages end in divorce, according to Jennifer Baker of the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in Springfield, Missouri.

According to enrichment journal on the divorce rate in America:
The divorce rate in America for first marriage is 41%
The divorce rate in America for second marriage is 60%
The divorce rate in America for third marriage is 73%

The odds of a successful marriage are only as good as the couple makes it and wants it to be. Marriages don’t just get ‘bad’ or ‘unfulfilling’ people let them get that way. JMHO!

Marriage takes work, and if you don’t do the work then it’ll run off into the ditch pretty fast.

Wedding Invitations with Carlson Craft

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

One of the many worries of the bride-to-be is how to send out the proper wedding invitation. There are practically tons of designs to choose from and a lot of companies that offer them. One option would be to look online to shop for the best wedding invitations. Other options include browsing through wedding magazines, going to the stationery stores, visiting bridal stores, etc.

Doing this would give both the bride and the groom an idea of how the wedding is set. There are, indeed, a lot of wedding needs to satisfy that is why norms would dictate that the letters are sent out 4-6 weeks ahead of the wedding date. Also, it may take time for all invitations to be addressed and sent out. Sending invites way ahead of the schedule would also give the couple an opportunity to correct mistakes that might occur.

But then, mistake is not an option when preparing for weddings. That is why printing companies like Carlson Craft specialize at creating them. Carlson craft wedding invitations are known for their style, beauty, and timeless elegance. Many brides have been satisfied with the services of this company and this started the word-of-mouth reputation of Carlson Craft.

There is definitely no need to worry about minute details on wedding invitations. Carlson Craft people are professionals that could handle any particular client specifications. All that the couple has to worry about is how to enjoy the wedding day (that is if the caterer shows up with good service!).
