I'll finish this later.....
Thank you all for coming by for a visit, wish I had had some really interesting blog for you to read. Finally, I got a pc that works. It's nice to have something that has some games worth playing. Now, mind you, I play at the most 3 games of Mah Jong solitaire. I heard it helps you delay the onset of Alzheimer's, so just in case, I'm playin'!!! :)
I have really enjoyed the tap class, my job and getting to see April's kiddies more. Going to class up by her is nice and it's on the way to my mom's....with gas the way it is and my time so limited, I have to work as many visits and reasons as possible into my trips. Then, we read where gas was going to $4/gal. What is that???
I had a great time the other night, teaching/talking to the YW. I brought them those 5x7 wooden picture frames with the frame being 3" wide...Gave them a lot of room to paint and decorate. They seemed to enjoy it. During that time the leaders asked me to tell about myself. I ended up after one girl asked me what I liked to paint/draw the most...I told her "people and landscapes". I told her that I had drawn several pictures of "memories" I had of stories my grandfather would tell. He was a great story teller, and as I relayed some of those stories to the girls the room was so quiet, mouths were agape..it was fun. Anyway, I drew one picture of the "Old Cliff-dwelling couple".

I'm glad you are really enjoying the tap class. It's good for you and your heart. I just read some articles about keeping our heart healthy. Black beans, avocado, oranges, nuts (mainly almonds), fiber rich foods are all good and exercise. We knew all of that but it's nice to read about it again. Have a good day.
While Dad's getting the mail at the post office, or some other 30 minute trek, I throw on my tap shoes and go to town....hahhahha...He doens't like my loud music. :) Thanks for the reply. Love you, Mom
Woohoo! I'm happy for you that you got a new computer... old ones are so frustrating.
I would love to come to you tap recital!
It was great to see a new post on your blog! I love that you were keeping the YW in stitches waiting for the rest of the story. It's all in the telling and you've got that down!! You nailed it!!! I love it when the Primary kids all look like they're listening. They are either trying really hard to be reverent or they are actually listening - sometimes it's hard to tell - haha.
That's true!! hahhah... I love telling stories, it was fun. I used to think I had to tell them like "Dad-Dad" told them, but I just tell them like I remember and it seems to be "good enough"! Mitty, Casey and Brandon always beg for more, hahaha..so I give 'em one more! I laughed a few months ago when Melody called me one night, at bedtime and asked, "Gramma, tell me a story, a really scarey story!" Oh Melody, maybe in the morning, not tonight, you'll have nightmares... I can't remember which story I told her, but it wasn't really scarey...she didn't ask again. Glad she has the kitty now. Love, Mom
