My Friend Cathy
This is WACKY WEEK here at Blogger Friend School! Everything is wacky fun! This week YOU, the student, get to share something of your choice that is little “Wacky”!!!
Have you done something crazy in your homeschool? Do you fingerpaint with your toes? Do you let your children do your hair? Do you wear your pajamas during homeschool? Oh, the list is endless, but it’s up to you and how much fun you want to have.
To make it even “wackier” (not sure if it’s really a word, but hey, we don’t check spelling this week at BFS either!!!…..try and type some or all of your post sdrawkcab. (backwards!)

ehT tseizarc gniht I nac kniht fo si nehw I desserd pu ekil a ainrofilaC nisiaR rof a lleweraf ytrap! Oh man, that was hard to type. This was years ago and it wasn’t about anything related to homeschooling. It was for a Sunday School Teacher that I had and loved dearly. She was called to move away for her job and she loved the California Raisins. Three other women and I dressed up like California Raisins and did the Raisin dance and song around her in a great big circle. It truly was crazy, but we had so much fun and it’s probably something she’s never forgotten. It was a time I will never forget either. We all had the old ankle converse shoes, that are NOW popular, we had striped socks, again are NOW popular, and we used pillows to stuff a big black trash bag, that we spray painted purple, and wore as raisin-looking bodies. I wish I had a picture of it now. We also had the gloves on our hands and painted our eyes with the blue makeup! It was a very fun and special time in my life.
Oh, What Fun memories.
I am so glad you shared about the California Raisins. `Those were the Days`
Thanks,
Michelle
LOL “I heard it through the grapevine’ that you were wacky. How nice of you to bless your Sunday school teacher in such a way. I’m sure it is a memory she cherishes. Thanks for sharing your story.
That sounds like fun! I wish you had a picture too! LOL
Blessings,

LOL! I loved the California Raisins! I would have loved to see y’all dressed up like one and dancing to the song. I bet she absolutely loved it!!!!
THanks for sharing!
Blessings,

Too funny! I’m sure she’s never forgotten that! And I’ll be she chuckles at the memory whenever she hear’s “I Heard it through the Grapevine” on the radio!
Hope your week is full of smiles!
SO funny!! I bet pictures of that would have been hilarious!! I am sure that is a going away she will never forget!!
Here’s to being a little YKCAW!!
Oh, how funny!
Ah, I love that kind of goofiness!!
Thanks for sharing. I wish you had a picture, too. hehe
Hi Mrs. Nancy,
I just noticed I left off the smilies when I copy/pasted. I guess I can write backwards better than copy/paste. LOL!!
Ok, here is the link for typing backwards: ENJOY

I remember the raisin craze! Very neat and touching idea to send her off with. Very sweet!
Too funny!!! I was hoping to see a pic!
That’s pretty funny Nancy! I dressed like a California raisin once too. But I was in the 5th grade.
You gotta come see my new website!
