Rehersal/Practice Session

I think we managed to go through just about every possible, thinkable, contingency for tomorrow night. Irene, our eldest dancer, won't be there. :( She has the flu and it's really knocking her down. We told her to just get well, there will be other events. She worked so hard to be at this one. *sigh*

It's kind of funny how much effort we put into a recital/performance that is just to be done in front of other dancers. I think it's almost as much effort as we put in for doing pro gigs.

Came home, crashed early. Still feel a bit knackered, but I am going to tough it out for our students. They have worked so hard for this night, and I am not going to let something as insignificant as the flu to stop this evening.

Weekend busy-ness

Dance class was more like workshop/dance class today. By request of a few students, we did a mini workshop on how to do tassels and tasselbelts. After that, we did some dancing, teaching them at least one new dance move, and making minor corrections on already known dance moves. Was asked last night if the old crew would be there tonight. My answer sums it up perfectly "Don't know, don't care."

Came home, made sure all is in readiness for tonight, tried to take a short nap (no joy), and printed out flyers for our upcoming student salon. Brewing a pot of coffee to sip on now, and got some honey/nuts/raisin bite sized snacks packed and ready to go. So much to do, and so little time to get it all done! :)
