Our original plan was to visit the Football Hall of Fame in Akron, Ohio today. Obviously, that’s not going to happen. As it is, we are going to have to keep the pedal to the medal in order to get as far as Columbus, Ohio tonight and then up early to get to Indianapolis, Indiana by noon. I have to be at a “Welcome” meeting with Bill and Gloria Gaither for The Praise Gathering event.

October 10, 2001

I can already see you smirking, but I have to tell you anyway. We didn’t cross the Canadian border until 6:30 PM tonight. It took us most of the day getting this place cleaned up and organized. And then, just as we were heading to the border, we passed a fabulous outlet mall.

We had to stop. For one reason, I packed up all of our summer clothes and stored them underneath the coach. We all needed a couple of long sleeve shirts. Of course, finding something for all of us took another two hours. Then we had to stop at the Duty Free shop to get our tax refund on everything we bought while in Toronto. While we were in there we did a wee bit more shopping. Hey, it was all duty-free, with a 60% exchange rate; we just had to do it.

Our original plan was to visit the Football Hall of Fame in Akron, Ohio today. Obviously, that’s not going to happen. As it is, we are going to have to keep the pedal to the medal in order to get as far as Columbus, Ohio tonight and then up early to get to Indianapolis, Indiana by noon. I have to be at a “Welcome” meeting with Bill and Gloria Gaither for The Praise Gathering event.

I want to turn a corner for a minute and talk soberly with you. I blew it yesterday and I want to confess it to you. Let me start at the beginning. I loved Blair’s wardrobe for the movie and tried very hard to negotiate either buying it or receiving it when filming ended. Over and over again I got the same negative answer. The word is, Michael Eisner once saw some Disney wardrobe in a Planet Hollywood Restaurant and was upset because it had been given to an actor and then they sold it. So, now, his policy is that nobody gets to keep his or her wardrobe.

I was very disappointed. For one reason, I have been a stay-at-home mom for the last thirteen years. I really haven’t had any purpose to go out and buy really nice clothes. But, in the near future, I’m going to start doing media interviews for the movie and I wanted have some nice outfits to wear.

On Friday, the last night of filming, the wardrobe lady came up with a great idea. She suggested that I go out and buy a less expensive black suit and bring it to her on Tuesday. She would exchange it for the fancy black suit that had been tailored specifically for me. This sounded terrific, so Tuesday morning I went to the nearest department store and found a cheap black suit. I also found a pink shirt, blue shirt and similar gray jacket to exchange. This way I would have two complete outfits.

I took a cab over to the production company Tuesday afternoon and made the switch. All was well until last night when I lay awake praying and God brought up the issue of the suits. He reminded me that many times I have said to my children, “Deception is lying with our actions instead of our words.”

At the same time, I realized that if I wore those outfits on an interview show, Kimmie and Mindy would surely recognize them from the movie. They wanted to buy some of their wardrobe as well. How would I explain the fact that I got some of mine and they didn’t? That would certainly put the wardrobe department in a bad position.

There is nothing I could tell them to justify my actions and redeem my testimony once the dark truth was uncovered. Of course, that should have been my first hint. Anytime we have to do something in the dark, it usually means that it won’t stand up in the Light.

So, today I packed up the suits and shirts and sent them back via FexEx to the production office. I told the costumer to feel free to give the clothes I exchanged to charity or take them back to the store and give the money away. I understand that this lesson will end up costing me a few hundred dollars but it would have cost me a whole lot more if I had gotten away with it.

I feel better now than I could have in the most expensive, designer suit ever made.

Thanks.
