I did it. Again.
I asked for $400 to present to the school district, after asking the most knowledgeable of ladies, Patty U. She knows everything! That’s why she’s such a great librarian. So anyway, this morning I check my email… and they agree! Now I have to give a really great presentation. I’m going to do power point and everything.
Now comes typical Cathy shining through. The presentation isn’t until January. Until then we have Christmas and Disney World (yippee!). So what do I do? I buy a flea ukulele. In uke berry, of course. I’m going to ask for this ukulele video for Christmas (or just buy it myself). It features a dog named Ginger, who plays the ukulele! Plus its meant for 5 – 10 year olds, so hopefully it’ll be easy enough for even me.
Here is someone on you tube playing the flea. And in this video the ukulele lovers just want people to take the ukulele a little more seriously.
Watch out kids, here comes the ukulele playing librarian!
Update: The store called. They don’t have the uke berry in stock right now, but they do have poi- ple! Even better!
