Happy Friday, Ladybugs

I could not get here yesterday because I had so much stuff going on, between my job and Honor Chorus stuff.

Job went along as usual. But I worked my you-know-what off getting the tickets printed for the banquet. That made me a little late getting to the meeting so that the tickets could be distributed. So I walked in, apologizing for my tardiness, only to be told, THERE WILL BE NO BANQUET THIS YEAR! Well, I think my heart dropped to my shoes, and I managed not to scream. I think I handled it with grace and aplomb. The kids did not seem to be too disappointed. They have been promised a reception on next Thursday, where they will receive their awards and chicken wings and cake. That is what is important, but I was really looking forward to getting dressed up and seeing the kids all dressed up.

Anyway, have a great Friday all. It is beautiful here. I am going to do whatever work I have to do for my job, then I will just "chill" for the rest of the day.

Aww, Dannie, how frustrating for you! Working so hard to get the tickets printed, and then to have that dropped on you. I know your aplomb was most excellent! Cake and chicken wings??? yes, the kids will be satisfied very well! We are supposed to get rain later in the day, a lot of it, so it may come your way tomorrow?? Hope you are able to get a lot of "just chilling" time in today! Seren

dannie,

that's such a shame that they won't have a banquet. when both of my boys were in band they really looked forward to their spring banquets.

looks like i won't be getting your way before my trip. our son is coming here this weekend and i leave in a little over two. so, guess i will have to wait and meet you in savannah.

have a great day,

ellen

Why no banquet, Dannie? Is this another budget constraint or just bad timing?

Enjoy the remainder of the day. In just a few hours, it'll be playtime! LOL!

And just what was the excuse ...er...reason... for cancelling the banquet? I'm sure the kids will be happy with wings and cake, but they deserve the banquet! Grrrrrr!!

I just know you kept your cool - eloquently, Dannie dear!
