Hello all!!! Today was a busy day. We're getting so close to production time!!! It's getting down to the wire. I'm also planning a teacher's vacation (not to Disney, but to PA which I still love) as of this minute too!!
Story time: I was out in the hall waiting for practice to begin, talking with a couple of friends and I hear "Jen! Jen! Come here QUICK!" from the elementary kids. **Note: I've worked with most of these kids at the library summer program or Bible School or tutoring.** I fear the worst-bloody nose, fight over a My Little Pony, throw up...compared to those, it's mild. Two girls came to get me because another little girl fell and twisted her ankle. So I told her to give the pain a color (purple being worst) and it was a purple. We took off her shoe and sock, and there's mild swelling (swelling is something I can't tell in thick socks, high top sneakers or generally at all). I told her that it was a bit swollen, so let's get it elevated and get some ice. By the end of practice, it was about a 4 on the pain scale (I think-that's a light green if we're talking colors). I was hero of the day in her eyes and it felt GOOD! I have now earned the nickname Miss Jen because I also let the kids in the practice room telling them to "sit down, stay relatively quiet, don't run around, and don't rip your faces off". Teacher-esque, but I like it! Hope little ankle swelling girl feels better (I tutored her when she was a little bitty kidlet!)
Cam!!

Glad you're back!!! It was back to school today (and picture day to boot!) They always schedule picture day on the day after Pres. Day! I should know by now that it happens then but since I'm photo editor I had to be out of classes for 1/2 the day so I'll have double HW tomorrow, and I had to be the "meanie Jen" and tell people (for the thousand millionth time) "YES, it's picture day today, what's your name?, first AND last names please, around the seats please, not all the way back, through the third row, watch the wires, stand by those double doors, wait your turn, YES you have to have your picture taken, NO you can't wait for your friends, please get back to class, I know you don't want to go back to class, wait in line, NO everyone can't be last, YES I would like to get back to class and do something productive today, please behave!!" Is that what being a mom is like? If so I might reconsider having children. Picture day is most definitely belonging in the seventh circle of h-e-double hockey sticks. No, I didn't plan my breakfast or pack my lunch because I was secretly hoping for a 2 hour delay!!
Tracey! I don't know if they sell it in the World, but I know they have it at many breakfast restaurants (Bob Evans is one). Laser tag is really fun, but a werewolf would make me pee myself because it's just dark enough that the walls look like ways to go and you can't tell wall from place to move and I ended up face to face with a wall more than once. That is just scary.

X-treme Laundry is very fun!!!
Today was as crazy as a crazy party in a crazy house on a crazy trip! Our production requires quite a bit of dancing, cheer movements, talking-lots of exercise!! Yay exercise!!
My pants also fit better, but these are an old pair. I'll get on another more new pair tomorrow to see if they speak the truth!
Breakfast:
-3/4 cup honey nut cheerios
-Dannon Light n Fit Vanilla Yogurt
Lunch:
-3 Bosco Sticks (pepperoni filled breadsticks)
no snack; wasn't hungry
water during practice
I think I'm feeling up for a butt kicking--wait, I mean cardio--after dinner (what and whenever that might be).
Talk to you all soon!!
