Thank you to Teresa, Shannon, & Carol for including me in the 40th birthday celebration in Chicago! It was so exciting to go to the Oprah show too! Wow! I can't believe it was a live show after the first episode of Oprah's Big Give!
It all started at 7:00am on Monday morning. It was your typical rainy, cold, miserable day in March and we were standing in line at THE OPRAH WINFREY show! We were herded in like cattle and made to wait for 1 hour ! We were so excited to finally hear our party name being called on the loudspeaker. We made sure we were all dressed in BRIGHT SPRING colors to ensure ourselves a great seat! Yes,we were ready for our TV debut! I in my Robin's Egg blue shirt (purchased just for the show), and Teresa in her Rose Pink sweater were lead in to the middle section closest to Oprah's sofa! How could we be so lucky? Teresa's birthday luck we guessed! I dreamed of reaching out to grab Oprah's ankle and then unexpectedly we were yanked up from our primo seats and thrown to the back left wall. They must have known our tendency to be boisterous & diruptive! OH well, maybe next time. Good to see you OPRAH!
