Crazy-Making Days

The big crunch of pre-winter is here. Lawn furniture goes to the rear of the shed while the snow blower becomes the star attraction. It's like an old vaudeville show; each tool has a glorious moment to perform well, or it gets the hook.

September is time to fold up the old sun umbrella and consider moving inside for dance lessons. Two classes are into their first week of Country 2-step (Yah-hoo) and East Coast Swing. Flamenco classes are still fluctuating on choice of night. My classes are no-charge..... free. So why do I work so hard? It's my pleasure to help young people whose talent lies in the direction of dance. I remember "way back when" I was a struggling dance student trying to stretch funds. I would have been eternally grateful for free dance lessons.

If anyone saw the "2-old Broads making energy bars," here is a "2-old Broads minus one" doing the hula hoop. A few posts back I mentioned my athletic hula hoop. It's weighted with five pounds swinging around your waist. I can work up a sweat doing 200 turns. Below is a very short vid of me doing the simple hula hoop. No fancy dancing, although some gals do. I'll have to work on that. Now everyone in my family is getting one. Don't buy the ones for kids...... too light. I had to send for mine online. My Granddaughter took the video and adds a few comments.
