Blog Entry 75 of 210 From the mountains to 6th Avenue
Many Evergreeners commute. It's been described as a commuter community. Accurate. So there is an etiquette to commuting. The first rule: Leave early. Even if you depart for a 9 to five job at 6:30 a.m., you will not be alone. If you like being alone on the highway, go to Montana. The second rule: Leave early If you don't get off til 5 p.m., take a book on tape, because you will be sitting in traffic near Federal and 6th, and entertainment of any kind is helpful. There are polite drivers, like me, who let others sneak in, especially in merge lanes. I try. You probably do too. The one thing I have decided that will not happen to me is that I will not be mangled in a car wreck on 6th Avenue or I-70 in either direction. What do you do to keep this promise to yourself?

Labels for homemade brew


I have a fascination with labels, book covers, graphics in general.
Eye catching stuff.

So, according to my best friend, I just HAD to open my mouth.
Oh . . . I'll do it, I love making labels.

I think maybe my enthusiasm sometimes overpowers my judgment, and I get myself into trouble, but at this point, I am totally used to it.
I take the responsibility.

I got myself into designing beer labels for my friend's daughter's wedding. The bride and groom have been laboring away to make homemade beer (seven different varieties) and they plan on giving their brew to guests.

Great, who doesn't like home brew, I say?

So, in some kind of mental fog I volunteered to do the labels.

It has been fun, but then I tell myself, why Karen, did you add this to you platter of work, household, taking care of Mom, taking care of family? Huh?

Don't have an answer.

I came up with these so far, and so far the couple has approved.
So what do you think. I know I could have been more creative, but sometimes the juice runs out. I still have three more to do.

Thanks Bill, you've ruiined it for me now. I thought it implied driving fast.

Very cool. Although Turbo Wheat kind of sounds like a laxative.
