Last One Before I Go...

Just wanted to post one more time while I have a computer to do so. Tonight is my last night here in Hurst w/ Val. She's been easy to take care of and is a sweet, sweet dog.

This week I got on Facebook. What a useful and useless tool all at the same time. I have found people I used to tour w/, folks from my acting class and other various souls I have enjoyed catching up w/. But I can see how one can waste a lot of time on it. This is why I am thankful I don't have a computer at home. I can still check Facebook on my phone and post pics etc - which I am planning to do while I'm in Vegas for competition. I think that will be fun to do.

Speaking of Vegas...I still have 5 weekends that I need to fill w/ petsitting, babysitting, housesitting, etc to earn money toward my competition...or you can sponsor a heat...

I have two back-to-back weekends of petsitting coming up so I will be able to post and update my calendar as needed. Until then...

Art & Soul of Ballroom Dancing

I got to see Jose DeCamps & Joanna Z. perform last night. Wow! They were awesome! Their rumba, bolero & mambo were incredible! Just watching them was a lesson in partnership, connection & technique. All of which are why they are the 3 time World American Rhythm Champions. Loved them! I would have loved a private lesson w/ them today but couldn't swing it financially. So hopefully I learned through osmosis as I watched them perform.

Good News/Bad News

Good news: My weekends are filling up w/ petsitting, etc as I earn money to go to Vegas. I will try to update my blog as dates are added. See my calendar - down on the right of this page. My lessons are going great and I finally have time to hang out w/ friends again.

Oh, I have pics from the February competition AND my spring showcase...it's a miracle!

Bad news: I'm petsitting for friends in Hurst for the first time in about two years. They now have pergo flooring in the den which is great to dance on...but within 10 minutes of getting in the door today, I slid down the steps into the den and sat straight down on my butt. Mental note: wear shoes in the house! I had just gotten in from the chiropractor too...now I need to go back. I'm already feeling the effects...ugggggggg....
