Hi!!!!! Have you wondered where the heck I have been? Guess where? The first ten guesses don’t count! This may surprise you, but I have been dancing and dancing and dancing… jamming my homework in between rehearsals and performances.
Today, a very exciting email arrived from the kind manager of “The Cheese.” He asked me to call him, and he told me that he has “The Cheese’s” quote for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unfortunately, when I returned his call after school, he had already gone home for the day– New York time. I guess I have something to look forward to tomorrow!
Last week, Deb Jeffers from the American Cancer Society called to ask if my mom and I would speak at the Luminary Ceremony at Nipomo’s Relay for Life on May 1. Mom had plans to go out of town that weekend, to meet up with some high school friends, but we both feel the strong desire to give thanks for my life… and what better way than sharing hope with others who have suffered through cancer, or who have helped loved ones through treatment and recovery. We will be speaking at 8:00, on May 1st, at the Nipomo Relay for Life.
Over the weekend, I received an email reply from Johnny Tan. He has had an amazing life, and I can’t to read his book, From My Mama’s Kitchen. From what I know, his book is about his mothers (8 of them I believe,) and how they each influenced his life. He has a talk radio show, FMMK, and I will be joining him for an interview on June 29th, at 10:00 am, Central time. After learning about him on his website www.frommymamaskitchen.com, I told him that I am going to begin working on getting my very own radio show– so I can interview Johnny! Lance too!
