OMG!

So, Ian and I were watching a movie tonight when our phone rang. I looked at the Caller ID and it said the local news station, so of course I answered it.

Me: Hello?
Reporter Lady: Hello, is this Heather?
Me: Yup.
Reporter Lady: Hi Heather! My name is Reporter Lady and I am doing a human interest piece on businesses that are being affected by the Economy. I saw your ad on craigslist and noticed that you were offering alternative hour care, weekend care…etc….and I was wondering if you have seen any changes in your daycare in the last few months due to the economy?
Me: Yes…..blah blah (insert really long conversation between Reporter Lady and me about my daycare, how I have been losing kids, how I have had to make changes to try and find kids, how hard it has been, etc etc…)
Reporter Lady: Wow. You sound really personable and I would LOVE TO COME TO YOUR HOUSE TOMORROW AND INTERVIEW YOU FOR THE NEWS!!!!!
Me: *mouth open* okay!

Soooo, the Reporter Lady is coming here, to my house, in the morning to interview me for the news! I am fuh-reaking out!! Couldn’t I have a little more notice, I need to clean my house more, what am I going to wear?!? Hopefully people will see my on the news and think, “that lady sure looks nice, I am going to send ALL my kids to her daycare and pay her three times her current rate because she is so gosh darn Awesome!!!”

I, of course, will let you all know ASAP how it goes…and there will possible be one or two more posts before then with me continuing to FREAK OUT!
