We had a VERY strange weekend. It started Thurs when I found out I printed the wrong judges page for the talent comp program book.

So I busted my back side and printed another. Then Friday was run around day and make sure everything was ready for Saturday.
Sat came and it was wild and crazy, Cassie helped me sell raffle tickets and cruise tickets as well as some program books.
I got Ellie ready and set up for her performances (she did fabulous) I hope to get them up on her site by next week.

Then it was out to sell tickets and program. We sold $320 in program books and raffle tickets. I am happy but a bit sad as well. I had printed over 200 program books and we only sold about 50 of them. The gal who did them last year said she sold out and they were only a few pages and ALL black and white, mine had color and pics from last year as well. Oh well some money is better than no money.
Then the talent scout who came up from Holywood asked Cassie if she like modeling and stuff. She invited Cassie to IPAC as well.

After talking to the singing teacher who is taking us to Hollywood, we might have found a way to get Cassie down there (not as a performer) but in and around the ageants etc. We don't have enough $$ to send her as a perormer, we still have not gotten enough for Ellie, but we will make sure she goes.
Carole (the singing teacher who runs the pageants in town) told us Cassie could enter the next pageant for free to get her feet wet.

That is a $325 savings. Things are looking up for that kid. Oh and she and I have talked about her crap and we figured it was just a very bad day for both of us and we took it out on eachother, so all is well.
THEN Sunday Ellie sang at my Wing Commanders call (big deal, she commands the largest reserve wing the the US) and they loved her. I cried.

My house is trashed because I have done nothing to keep it up in 5 days, but I am spent so part of me doesn't care.
I do hope all is well with the DDA, if anyone has a minute to give me some cliff notes, that would be fabulous.
Enjoy your morning all.
