Tonight we went to the store, and found out the newspaper had been delivered. Bought up a "few" copies...........got back to the car and showed Mrs. Cheesey.
Now, I was expecting the picture to be pretty big, she didn't expect it. My photo and part of the article covers 80% of the front page of the "Good Living" section.
When she saw it, she freaked out, saying "We have to go and buy up ALL of the papers!!!" I asked "Why???" She says "Because people will just buy them, read them, and then throw them away! I can't stand the thought of people throwing your picture away!"
Now......she has been out of work for over a month with a broken finger, no money coming in but my SS, which came in thankfully today. She will get short term disability, but it's a far cry from what she's used to making. So i just start laughing and tell her "We can't afford to buy up all the papers.....besides, then who will see my article?" I just couldn't help but laugh!!! It really made my day, seeing her reaction to the BIG picture of me!
Friday night I open the "Summer Sounds" concert at 6:30pm at Cedar Springs park in Cedarburg. I'll be singing "Heaven" and "Can't help falling in love".
I STILL can't believe I won. It still hasn't sunk in. (Takes awhile to get through the "rock" i guess) LOLOL!!!
Oh....and it was mentioned that there was no "joke" in the article? Well, if you saw my "old man" act that i put on with all the other contestants before the competition at the fair, you'd be laughing!
