O.K. So I’m late this week with the blog! Some people are happy about it, some people are sad. Whaddayagondo!!
Man did I have a weekend from hell! 900 Degrees out and these people think it’s “elegant “ to get married outside! On Saturday afternoon we did a wedding reception in a barn that had, no air conditioning in it, no fan and no cross ventilation whatsofrickinever!!!I was dying dying I tell you! I did think at certain points that I was going to pass out! And of course the band had to learn 8 to 10 songs for this wedding, sit in a torture chamber for 4 1/2 hrs and in the end NO TIP!! Hey listen a tip is not requiered cause we get paid pretty good to do this and I never exspect one, but if ever a tip was in order it was this past Saturday! It was breathless in there and just to be preparred for the gig it was hours of home prep!
Enough whinning this Saturday 8/11 I have a family barbecue to host so I keep going back & forth between excitment and dread!! Not sure who’s going to show cause as you know getting a commitment from my family is like tryin to nail jello to the wall! This is supposed to be a barbecue so we can start healing as a family so we’ll see. At the very least we’ll all show off our vollyball skills! Yeah right! Watch us get into a fight over who wins the game!!! LOL!!!
