What's new?

It's that time of year again, when things get so busy. I love the holidays, but sometimes I feel rushed and out of breath. Perhaps once I finish up the Christmas shopping and decorating, I can relax with a cup of hot cocoa and contemplate my many blessings.

Along with the holidays, there is the big dance show in January to keep me on my toes, so to speak. I will be dancing in five dances this year and fortunately, most of the costumes are already made, or are being purchased, or ones I have used before. But there are dances to learn and perfect (to the extent of my abilities) and rehearsals to fit into my schedule.

To help me keep sane and have more energy, I have taken up swimming. I have always loved playing in the water but have never been much of an actual swimmer. It kind of surprised me that I love it. This week I swam three miles. It takes me about 45 mintues to go one. It's such a great workout and I love the feeling of slicing through the crystal clear water.

I'm wondering if anyone reads this blog. It would please me silly if you would post a comment. It gets lonely in here.

I do, I do! Unfortunately I don't always have time to comment - especially the past few weeks with our travels, Halloween party and visitors and now the holidays are upon us. *sigh* I do enjoy reading your blog for what it's worth, though :)

Thanks, Sara! I'm trying to get my brothers to exchange comments, but I'm lucky if they actually post something new. It's just nice to know that someone is having a peek at my blog.
