Weekend Update!

Weekend Update --

Did you know that Prince wrote "Manic Monday"

for the Bangles?

Me neither!

It's one of my favorite songs -- Maddy thought I made it up!

But no, that was Prince, not Jboo!

His sudden death was such a shock. 

I had no idea he had such a huge fanbase.  

Now, I will think of him every Monday when Maddy and I 

sing  "Just another Manic Monday, wish it was Sunday . . . "
on our way to school and work!

Miss M was not feeling well at the end of last week

 necessitating a doctor's visit!

She's generally very healthy, but we thought it might be strep as her throat

was very sore and she was exhausted.

Not strep - but a respiratory flu-like virus that wore her

out and has now moved into a croupy cough.

Poor girl -- I've been distributing Tylenol* daily.

She's doing better today but when she coughs -- watch out --

thankfully, it sounds worse than it feels!

In other happier news, look at the door poster that the senior

cheerleaders made for each of the freshman girls!

Cheer uniform ordering happened a week ago.

That's an experience!  I have no idea when they wear some of the

stuff that was required, but I'm sure we'll find out! 

Parents were instructed to 

"Bring Your Checkbook!!"

Cheer practices start in May; cheer camp in July

and fundraising has already started!

Meanwhile, Maddy continues her efforts to teach me how to do a 

cartwheel!

Will keep you posted! :)
