There was no rehearsal yesterday, but Steve had a work party for much of the day. It's so difficult because there are no other adults helping at those times. Just supervising the kids is a full time job and it means he doesn't get everything done that he plans. I thought we might take a day off from musical but Steve had to rebuild a platform because Ben didn't think the old one was high enough. So, we knocked that out in 90 minutes. I prefer construction to sewing much of the time. Cutting wood on stage makes such a mess because sawdust blows all over and requires vacuuming the entire stage afterward.
We fitted many of the kids with western style shirts on Thursday night. I brought them home to launder, press and label for Monday's rehearsal. Many of the girls now have prom dresses and a few are set for church dresses, but we still have lots to do! Fortunately, high waisted jeans are back in vogue so most of the girls can provide their own. It's a relief that we won't be sewing two dozen black and white coats again!
Yesterday, we had a huge turnout at the third meeting of CC WAG. We're organizing, growing in membership and planning for the future. The main target is: Tom Reed. We must defeat him in 2018! He at least is holding town halls starting next Saturday. Chris Collins of Erie County has never held a town hall and says he doesn't intend to. So, he doesn't feel it's necessary to be accountable to his constituents. He has to go down, too.
From one of our walks earlier this week.
We've had mixed rain, winds, snow, and sunny skies this week.
Feels like spring is coming!
