OMG – so, December is always SOOOO busy-busy! I’ve been practicing belly dance so much this last month and am absolutely loving it! It actually is making me feel a live again and I’ve noticed that once again, my style is ‘maturing’ and at-home-practice is becoming much more fun. I can tell I’m in better shape and have actually lost several pounds without trying! What more could a girl want?
Had my first performance in over a year at the Garnet Assisted Living Center – I feel I bombed it, but the other girls said they couldn’t see all my screw-ups! Whew! I guess that’s the last time I wear cat-paws on an untested surface! Next performance is scheduled at Art in the Alley on Tuesday. I’m using the same music, so wish me luck! 😀 Should be a MUCH different crowd, so hopefully we’ll be able to get them participating this time!
Also, went out into the desert with my fiance and his father. There are fields out here where you can find old indian pottery shards! That was pretty cool – also found some beautiful quartz crystal (and practiced not being greedy, too) and picked up a couple pieces of wood to shape into wands. 😀 I’ve had a long standing request for a tutorial that I’m finally going to be able to get to! w00t!
