New Years Day DJ gig!

2 weeks or so back I saw Ed Austin at Joan Shermans memorial service and asked him if they needed a DJ at the New Years day lunch at Sacred Heart, He said he didn't Need one but He welcomed my assistance.
  A group from Valentine house which houses physically and mentally disabled adults were the guests. Wow they had a great time! There was a small space for dancing inform of Ed and I and they packed it and cut loose!
 I could tell they were having fun!
It was a fun afternoon. That's the great thing about music. It lifts hearts and souls and for a few hours these folks were able to cut loose and forget the worries of the world if only for a few hours it was so worth volunteering my time to make a group of folks who got a short end of the straw in life happy for a few hours.
We got a big round of applause of the end of the day!
Ed took some pictures of me too!
Thank you Ed for a great afternoon!

Tommy and Ed both gave me hellos over the mic.Sweet.Ed and Tommy were Talking at one point.Im guessing they know each other from over the years.
Roxy of Roxys Bay Head blog Gave both me and the Sherman brother band shout outs on her blog.
I put in for a day off on the 20th.
so set sail for fun and musical adventure August 20th from 12 noon till 5pmat the Bay head fire companys annual clambake.Im so happy to be giving my time to a worthy cause.There will be a 50/50 too!
Each year I know im getting older when I see more and more BHS alumni drinking beer,married and bearing children.oh my!yep 10 years till retirement.How fast they grow up!Most of them make me proud though,I must say!
No matter how much your tix cost remember its a VERY worth while cost.Keep our firefighters well trained and equipted!Think your family van takes alot of gas?ask what it cast to fuel a firetruck!
OK so back to the car show.There were quite a few antique cars no modernized with new stereo systems or interior bling!that was cool for me.
It was a nice turnout.
Soo August has arrived and with it comes a semi return to school duties.Yesterday I filled 3 garbage bags will shredded documents.Our recourse room teacher Diane informed me she has MORE for me.I promised her Id do that upon my next day im there.
Our Secretary and principal were both out.If they think im a slacker perhaps the amount of shredding I did in 2 hours time will remind them I'm NOT!
Im not asking for praise or whatever.just a little R E S P E C T!
OK that is the news and I am outta here!
