Made the “traditional” Chinese Thanksgiving this year. A dish for each chicken, duck, fish, beef and pork. Took me about two days from shopping to dishes. Not too bad. Em came over early and vacuumed for me. I had time to take a nap even in the afternoon before the final push. Ey had allergy attack again from staying more than a couple of hours here with the cats. He barely can eat and fled. We took the pumpkin cheesecake to Em’s to finish the meal. Poor kid. I have such guilt every time he comes over. sigh.
On a lighter note, C asked me to go to Cash Bash with her and met with a couple of lady friends before for drinks and appetizer. I had a BALL with these ladies. They cracked me up and I was thoroughly embarrassed with the bold talk they had too. I laughed till tears came out. One of them carry a fart noise maker to prank. Such fun ladies to be with. And I didn’t think I would dance much since it’s been a long time I went and even danced socially west coast and hustle. But I got to dance a lot and watched a lot of good dancers compete and in the end, I even danced with a pro. It’s such a joy to dance with John Lindo. He has such a genuine smile when he dances with you. And he is like that with every lady he danced with. And he can make things happen even if you don’t quite catch his lead and makes you feel so good that your inability didn’t show. Oh, what a joy.
I really do miss this kind of lead and follow dance. Followers have to be always on her toes for the upcoming lead and even embelish when she can. Leaders have to make things happen and not bore the follower he’s dancing with. I only wish I am a lot better dancer than I am. Dancing is so much fun!!!
