Thanks! I am so pleased that the article credited my parents for showing their support. They were NOT "stage" parents - they simply believed in giving me opportunities and supporting my dream. I know Dad will be proud and Mom is smiling down from Heaven.
As for the nay-sayers - I read that they have only 3 confirmed attendees at the upcoming 9 nights of Open House and 2 of those are staff. I guess I don't need to do anything to "affect" their business. Karma always bites you in the butt. LOL!
