*Excitement Ahead

A few exciting things happening here. I got my employment call for Wefest. I asked to switch jobs this year and my request was granted. I will not be working at the campground gates checking people in. Two years ago when I was there I met a guy, his name is Bob. We worked together a little bit and had a lot of fun after work hours were over. I still laugh about it. Anyway...Brandi is bringing Pat with this year so she will hang with him and other friends she knows that go up to the festival. Soooo...I asked to work the Event Staff with Bob. He went to college with the gal that does all the hiring and she told me I am hired for that position. I called Bob to let him know that I'd be working with him and he reminded me that he frequently works backstage! Bob is a few years older than I am and we proved to Brandi that 40 and 50 year olds can still have lots of fun!! I mentioned before that a girl I work with will be there because her hubby drives the merchandise truck and is a body guard for Kenny Chesney. I'll be meeting Kenny because of her. Working backstage will give me a possible chance of meeting others like Rascall Flatts, Brad Paisley, Billy Ray Cyrus..just to name a few.
I know some of you have had the opportunity in the past to meet big names in rock & roll and I still love rock but I also love today's country. This is pretty exciting for me and has had me grinning from ear to ear since I got the call.
To add to that excitement, I might be getting the kind dog I've always wanted. Its a 2-1/2 yr old female Golden Retriever; Bailey. She is fully house trained & excellent with kids. One of our gym teachers is giving her away because she is moving and can't take the dog. I jumped at the chance! I won't have to go through puppyhood or potty training! She spends most of her days outside so I will need to fence in a small area and get a doghouse. The grandkids will love it!! I will too of course and I will feel much more secure at night with a dog around. I've wanted a golden ever since I met Honey...the Zenners dog from up at Pearl lake. I fell in love with Honey when I was in grade school. Then Ron and Tia got Cass and my love for retrievers grew even more. I haven't told Brandi yet but I am sure she will read it here. I will need a dog-sitter when we go to Wefest....Jean? I can ask Keith too...he loves dogs and he owes me a lot of babysitting time lol.
Nothing real exciting or interesting has happened in my life for a long time and nothing is going to pop my bubble! :)
