Poem from Emily to her Nana (Joan A)

Emily said...
I thought this poem was really cool. Pass it on to Nana for me please :)
The grandkids like to visit,
They are always stopping by
Sure They'll find their grandma,
In the kitchen baking pie.
But times have changed since grandma
Learned to twinkle and vine.
She can hook and hitch and scoot,
Her jazz box is real fine.
Oh, grandma's in the kitchen still,
In cold and snowy weather.
But she's not baking cookies , kids!
She's out there slappin' leather!

Monday class at Heretaunga Club

Well we had a good turnout for the first day. Everyone went home a bit blurry eyed. I think I might have made them think a bit. Good though. Changed the format as well. Only had 1 or two who wanted revision, so ended teaching all the way through the first two hours. Didn't do the third hour as planned but did have 4 people turn up for a learners session. Will definitely do the learners section if the demand is there. These people are going to try and get more learners.
We will continue on with the format that we started with on 1st day.
The floor is superb and so are the accoustics. Great venue.

yet another break for line dancing

Had a wonderful break for the school holidays. The first week I cleaned up the garden (which now needs doing again) and I also updated our little cottage which we rent out for holiday accommodation. I am very pleased with it.
Then Ray & I went to Auckland for three nights and wow we had an awesome time, but I don't think I have fully recovered yet. I think we think we are still teenagers.
Our lovely daughter came home for a couple of days and it was so awesome just having her around. We had a lovely time. Ray had a week holiday too and we took her 2nd hand shopping. I love to do that as some of you know. Got some cool stuff. Some retro stuff, some clothes, some antiques. It is amazing what you can find. The three of us tootled round Napier in Rays 1930 Chrysler.
I am now in training for Napier Pak n Save half marathon on the 11th Nov. Am now up to walking just over 2 hours. Will have a trial run of 3 hours this labour weekend.
So, yes we have no dancing this Friday and Monday of labour weekend. Hope to get into the garden again.
Let me know if anyone is doing anything this weekend. We would all love to hear about it.
Have a great weekend and see you at dancing.
