Sunday
Had fun last night. Danced hard. Twisted & Turned like I haven't done for some time so sore legs but grateful to have legs and to be able to dance. 4 AA friends showed. I almost wrote something very judgemntal or true about Alanons-- oh hell here goes--I am one-- we can be such a glum lot.
Lots of young people there. I managed to stay and dance every dance this time. I am so grateful to be healthier.
I do want to manage things. I mostly want to tell them how to do things better. I do NOT at this time want to be involved in making thigs better. Just want to make suggestions and have them carry them out as directives. I can be such a bitch.
I loved our LV Contra dances where we had potluck in the middle of the dance as a break to eat and fellowship--ts hard to dance and talk at the same time for many of us not just me! and I want them to have cups and H2O and sharpies to put our names on the cups. Simple things that could require coordination and it would be easy to coordinate so They SHould!
But I kept my mouth shut, stuck my attitude in my pocket and danced. Crawled out of bed into a delicious hot shower this morning and eased those muscles.
Yeserday DM told me he heard the minister at my church is retiring. He heard it on the street. I could feel my reaction to this possible change. I read on Noel's blog one of my favorite quotes and one I saw just recently about door opening and closing. Hope I can not be afraid of this change enuff to keep me in church. I react badly to changes others impose on my life but can't stand things not changing in my own. Oh I am one sick chick. But loveable I know. I didn't always know...
Oh, I got my theme for my baby party in Aug today. He was talking tot he graduates, I love the way he does this talking directly to them but leting us observe---but anyway he talked about the stumblings we have been making in our lives since we are terrible twos but how God sees us not for our mistakes but as a beautiful child of God. So my theme will be how we are beautiful child of God--- I'm excited how the creative juices once stagnant begin flowing--- all from God not my doing.
enjoying the pace of today...

It must have been a dancing kind of Saturday. Both Glenn & Jesse danced last night while I sidelined it. It was the Jack & Jill last nite...what a fun and different way to celebrate an upcoming wedding...it's like a practice reception. This is on top of the bachelor and bachelorette parties...it's for both of them and it's a shower of money. You pay to get in, have lots of good food and a cash bar. The wedding party brings gifts to be raffled off and the bride and groom get all the money. I was the very tired DD last nite, but it felt good to be able to help clean up at the end of the nite and take care of the boys :-)
Send me good vibes for the end of the week. Making the trek to A'town for my face to face interview...won't someone please tell me that I"m too old to be changing jobs AGAIN!!???
Dancing is one of the best things on earth. Glad you go to do that! And you are NOT dense!
I liked how you said you know you are lovable today, and thanks for saying it to me too!
I have not been dancing since I quit drinking, not that brave yet! OOps, I lied, I dance with Ellen Degeneres every morning!
Love and HUGS
Keep on dancing, Christine.
