Lights … Camera … and My Nervous Jitters

Hi everyone!

I’ve had a fun (and somewhat frightening) week. Do you remember my post from last week on the Quad City Moms Blog? It was called, How to be a Better Wife: Five Great Reminders from My Three Little Girls. Well, the day after it was published I was asked to talk about it on a local TV program, Paula Sands Live.  

Now wait just a minute! I’m sharing tips on how to be a better wife? Yep. My hubby got a chuckle out of that one. 

So here’s the thing. I really debated about sharing this experience with you. I mean, is it just me, or does everyone hate to watch and listen to themselves on video? 

But the more I thought about it, the more I realized something. I have wonderful blog readers. You guys have always been encouraging to me! 

So finally I thought, nah, get over yourself Sheri. Your friends will understand your nervous jitters. 

So I’m going to share it. It’s about five minutes long. (Though it felt like five hours.) Just kidding. It was actually over before I knew what hit me. 

When you open the link, just click “next” on the right side directly under the video. Find the Sept 23rd program and click on it. My segment actually starts at about 8:20 on the counter if you’d like to skip the other stuff and get to me. 🙂

By the way, the whole experience was so much sweeter because a special friend of mine was able to come with me. She cheered me on, took a couple of pictures, and even helped me celebrate afterwards with a big ‘ol Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup malt. Well okay, I got the malt. She was a good girl and got a single scoop. 
(Thanks for everything, Brenda. You are the best!)

Gee, maybe I shouldn’t have worn pink. Rule #1: Don’t clash with the host!

And thank you, for stopping by today. I’ll see you next week!

    Very cool, Sheri! Congratulations on this opportunity. You did great! BTW, I found it on 9/23. I almost missed it, but am glad I found the clip.

      Hally – Oh I didn’t realize I did that. Thanks for letting me know! I’ve changed it now.

      Appreciate your words of encouragement. 🙂
