I was booked at the YMCA Childcare folks for two sets of music for pre-K and K in the morning. I looked at the contract, drove to the YMCA and was directed to a set of trailers that were being used as classrooms. They were waiting (hmm, seemed like older kids..), and I played with the groups, and it was fun. Worked up a sweat, and headed for the car. No check, though…
I had three messages on my phone. “Where are you?” “We booked you for this event…. etc.” I called, and found out I was at a different site. Big ooops…
I asked if we could still do it, and the folks said, sure, we’ll do it after they get up from naps at 3 pm. so I traveled to the Kindercenter, where we settled what went on, and I did a set with the little kids. And the check was there. All in all, it turned out to work out well, I played three sets instead of two, for twice the audience, left a bunch of CD’s with the kids, and got back by 4:00.
A long day with a strange twist in the middle, but no harm. Sheesh….
