Blog: Diary of a Former NFL Cheerleader (Continued)

After two years of tumult, this former cheerleader is ready for some fun.

I was thinking of my crazy uncle Frank the other day for no apparent reason, and I received a call on Monday that he had passed away.  

Funny how random thoughts of people and things happen like that. He was the crazy uncle everyone has. He drank too much, made funny faces and danced around—or rather stumbled around—at parties.  

The only thing you can count on is change, they say, and death and taxes. I have had my share of them all lately.

I need my share of fun again! 

So I'm off this coming Friday to a reunion of 50 years of NFL Cheerleading. It should be a blast.

I will blog after—and maybe during—the event, with pictures and articles. My objective is to let go and have fun. After the past two years of death, change and drama, I need it—desperately.

My hair and nails are done. All I have to do is pack and off I go. Stay tuned.
