COLD WEATHER, COLD STONE

Today I was at the hospital with the kids getting their echocardiograms and stress test for medical clearance for the show. A special hi going out to all our fans at Charlotte Hungerford Hospital especially the blood drawing department that has our article copied and is handing it out to people. HI! Right after the hospital we went to my mother and father's pool. Yes, MTV picked the coldest day to shoot a pool scene. We jumped in the pool and just about had a stroke. I made a comment that we should race each other to get warm. I was kidding but Brian the associate producer wasn't. We raced and played games for a while. Then I taught Cynthia how to do a back dive off the diving board. I told her if she learned how to do the back dive I would take her to Cold Stone Creamery in Torrington. Shhh don't tell her but we were already planning on going there tonight. When we came back home we bleached Cindy's hair. Her hair is now the color of mine, blond. Hey, gram this is now two times you got your wish of Cindy having blond hair. MTV didn't want her to dye her hair any color because then they can edit the filming and put in all together and not worry what sequence the hair color was in. Then we all got interviewed again about the same things we get interviewed about every day. Repeat, Repeat. They ask us the same questions but different ways every day. I guess they will edit the tapes and find the best day, with the best answers, with us in our best outfit. LOL. After dinner we went to Cold Stone. It took us over a hour to get the approval to film in there. Of course once we got the approval we walked in and the owner was saying, Welcome to Cold Stone Creamery. No one has ever welcomed us before. Did you know if you tip them the employees sing? Once they started singing people were tipping them left and right. We had our favorite employee, Joe, waiting on us. I told you Joe, we were going to be famous. Maybe you will be now too. If anyone was planning on coming to our Tag Sale tomorrow, it is cancelled. That is another story in itself. MTV has something big tomorrow they tell us. We will see . . . . . . . Bonnie
