No Voice at a Church "Thingy?"

I'm feeling pretty sickly today. And that stinks. Not just because I don't feel well, but also because I have to go to this church thing all day tomorrow (I have no idea what I am doing there), and on Saturday I have to work a bunch.

I woke up this morning with no voice. After I woke up, I went back to sleep. I woke up about an hour later and moved downstairs to lay around on the sofa (half-sleeping). Finally, I took a shower and put some ugly, comfortable (in a word, "camp") clothes on.

Later, I took my
brother, Mitch-the-itch, to get his hair cut. Like every cool, future middle school-er, he has to have longish hair. But, he plays baseball. And I'm not talking a few times a week....no, all the time. He plays on a community team and a traveling team and hopefully soon an all-star team. We are constantly going to baseball games and either freezing our buns off (in November) or burning up (now). After Mitch-the-itch's last baseball game, his head was soaked. Eew. So I took him to get his hair a little "cleaned up" and put some layers in it so it wouldn't be so hot. Of course, it was really hard to tell them what to do with his hair when I could barely talk. All the hair-cutters are probably making fun of me right now.

Anyway, this thing for church tomorrow...it is definitely a "thing" because I have no idea what is going on. I thought it was going to be a banquet or something but last week I learned that it was going to be long. Anyway, I received a scholarship from the Western North Carolina Association (WNC) of the
United Church of Christ. When I got it, my minister's wife told me that if I went to the meeting/banquet thing, I had a better chance of renewing the scholarship. Of course I would go (even if they don't renew it, they are giving me money). Last week I called her to find out what time to meet her because she was going and it is about 45 minutes away at Catawba College. She only told me to be at the church at 7:45 tomorrow morning and not to worry "she registered me for everything." Basically, this is still all I know. I had my mother call her today and my mom emailed me saying to dress up and that it would go all day "Have fun," she ended the email with.

It is driving me crazy that I don't know what is going on. I have looked all up and down the internet for any info. In fact, I don't know if the meeting is just the WNC association, or maybe the entire
Southern Conference. I don't know. Am I going to workshops? How long is "all day?" Are there other scholarship kids going?

Its driving me crazy. Hopefully, I will get my voice back by then. Otherwise, they might be kinda worried that they gave me the scholarship and I can't even voice an answer or opinion. Tomorrow will at least be interesting.
