Still Dancing

Tomorrow morning I'm leaving early to take Boy for state testing.  I'm not sure I'll remember to publish this post so I'm doing it tonight.  I'm tired/ I'm cranky/ and Gladys Knight just got voted off Dancing with the Stars.  I got all teary as they played "She's leaving on a Midnight Train to Georgia" as pros and stars hugged her good-bye.  I really hate it when I get all misty over a TV program.  It all began when Host Tom introduced a young lady ballerina.  Originally from Africa caught in the ravages of war, losing both mother and father, this child was placed in an orphanage in Africa and was taunted due to a skin condition.  She was called a devil child.  An American couple adopted her and another child from Africa and called them their own.  These two little girls were accepted and loved.  This one child dreamed of dancing and her parents encouraged and paid for lessons.  She has just been accepted to a prestigious dance school.  She danced for us tonight and she is beautiful.  Holding back tears gives me a headache and I have a royal one tonight.  I held back tears at the beginning of the show and then at the end.  I really hate it when I get all teary over a Dancing with the Stars episode!!!

Anywho, on a happier note, I received this photo from my boss.  I laughed out loud when I got it.  I know the best kind of laughter is the belly laugh...I'm thinking I should get floor to ceiling mirrors in my living room to watch myself dance like nobody's watching.....and laugh!  What about you?  Are you claiming a day to dance like nobody's watching?  Maybe we'll see each other on the next season of DWTS.  It could happen!
