Homecoming Queen Nomination

My eldest daughter was nominated for homecoming queen for her senior class along with her boyfriend. She really wanted this (her friends were always attendants in previous years and it was kinda like "always a bridesmaid never a bride" feeling with her friends around her getting it) and now she has a shot at homecoming queen.  She's excited about it and I'm excited for her if it is what she wants.

The start of her senior year is off to an exciting start!

Son beats out senior on snare

Marching band season has started and my sophomore son is lead snare. Yeah for him!! I don't think the senior in percussion liked that too much but he is better than every other one in his group. The senior quit band because he wasn't snare or on the quads.

I think it'd be cool if our marching band had some guitars out there, set up wireless, of course. I've heard they're going to get some keyboards or something but I'd like to see a guitar. Then we can really do "Welcome to the Jungle" the right way. There are a lot of cool wireless systems to choose from but our school would never spend the money on that kind of set up.

You can find all kinds of good sales for your musical needs online and get notified of them through your email. Join now.

Me - a new business owner?

So we might become business owners. We'd planned on a small home business (dog kennel) but a home we are looking at and considering buying has a successfully run horse boarding stable on it already. I didn't think about going that big for a home based business but it's really just managing the money while the barn manager manages the rest of it usually.

I'd want to do more advertising to get a couple more stalls filled and bring in more prospects for riding lessons, perhaps advertise in the local paper, flyers during local village events, perhaps print small booklets (like this company that does booklet printing nyc) - talking about the business, the boarding, the lessons - to leave in some businesses like they do at hair salons.
