So Sad!
So sad the holiday bundle I wanted sold out before I could order FAIL! But I order the other two bundles to make the bundle I wanted, I just wont have Dolly autograph on my cook book or the Live from London cd/dvd. Maybe I will get lucky and they will send me one autographed by mistake :) But its all good I can't wait to get my hat and apron I will be wearing them every Christmas and I am going to bling out my stocking with pictures and rhinestones!
Sad the tour is over as well! I only got to go to one show and it wasn't enough for me! Next time I am going to be ready I have to get up close at some point I have to be on my game next time! Hopefully next time I will get picked for the meet and greet and my 30 year dream of meeting Dolly will come true! Although I don't know if I could handle it. I probably would do the ugly cry and embarass myself lol . I mean I don't know how I would explain to her what she means to me and what joy she brings me. My childhood wasn't really a childhood I had to grow up fast and with that brought on feelings I have never really expressed to anyone. But thru it all Dolly was and still is my guiding light. She was the light that shined when I didn't think there was any. Her laughter, smile, music and movies got me thru some of the worst times in my life. Here to keeping the dream alive she is definately on my bucket list and I am not giving up till it happens.
i hope you do get a chance to
i hope you do get a chance to win a meet and greet with her.... i met her over here in Australia, and although i'm sure it was a cool experience....i now pretty much remember none of it lol it was just such a wierd experience that my natural instinct to just mentally dissapear in situations i'm not comfortable with occurred and even the things i did at first remember just isn't in my mind anymore, so thank god for the pictures!!! i think just the fact that there were so many people in the room looking at us talking spooked me out because i found it hard to concentrate on where everyone was and what they were doing whilst trying to focus on the fact that Dolly was right in front of me...i also found it hard to connect in my brain that the person who i've listened to for the last 30 years was the person standing in front of me!....anyway you know 'they' say...and i take issue with some of the things 'they' say but agree with this one...is that no matter what a child is going through...if there is just one adult in their life that is a positive influence, the child will get through anything....and even though physically Dolly wasn't around..her music was and i think ALOT of people feel that way towards her...and although your childhood wasn't a childhood, it sounds like Dolly was that one person in your life for you....and good on you for such a great choice for a positive influence! gosh...what a post...sorry if it's completely irrelevant!!
also...sorry you didn't get
also...sorry you didn't get the package you wanted...i didn't order it because not even a Dolly cookbook will ever make me enjoy cooking. maybe write them an email and explain what you've written here.
Thanks! I am pretty sure I
Thanks! I am pretty sure I would be the same way when I get my chance to meet her. I will be a crying mess on top of that she will be like clean up in isle 3 lol. She is a wonderful influence on my life and I thank God for her. Its so weird I have never met her but I feel such a strong connection to her. She is just who she is and that is what I love about her the most. She tells you like it is and she don't mess around. I thought about emailing them but I bet they get a ton of them about it. Maybe If I carry it with me every where I go when I do meet her I can have her autograh it. I love to cook and I can't wait to get it.
