Major WOW! I fit, I fit!!!
Tonigh were the final auditions for the Eagles Cheerleaders, a close friends daughter (I consider her my niece) was trying out, she made it onto the squad last year, but you still have to try out each year. So I went with the whole family. I was really nervous, because, one, having to walk, being that it was in center city, parking would not be close by the theatre at University of Penn; and I was worried I wouldn't be able to keep up with everyone; and two, about fitting into those tiny theatre seats. Well, we parked about a block and a half away; and although I didn't walk as fast as everyone, I was able to keep up, and didn't get out of breath!!! Then, there were steps, and I was like, oh gosh, here we go, I'm going to pass out doing those steps - Nope! Did them!! Then, the dreaded moment came... going to our seats... I said I'd sit on the end, still scared to death inside about fitting in the chair. I sat, and was like, oh my gosh, I fit, I fit! I was bursting inside with emotion! My arms even were able to rest on the arms of the chair - I was able to sit all the way back in the chair, comfortably, no fat was rolling over the sides! Finally, I looked over at Vicky and her sisters, and showed them my excitement, and they knew right away what I was trying to show them, and I got so emotional, my eyes filled up. I called Traci right away to tell her. I couldn't believe it. last year, I didn't go to the auditions because I knew I would never be able to fit into seats like that, or be able to walk much.
