Child of the 80s

So, I was in my water aerobics class and we were "soaking to the oldies" and... I was thinking... When I get old (and contrary to my children's belief I am NOT old yet - I'm not even 40 and in my family that isn't even middle aged...) and I am still in water aerobics and we're working out to the oldies... Will it be 80s music?

I've been thinking about age a lot lately.

I have been working on a crocheted pillow and some edging for another project (pictures later this week) and I was talking about play practice (I really AM a drama queen) and how I would take my crochet (didn't learn to knit until I was older) and crochet while I was waiting for my turn on stage. My husband made the comment that I've always been old. I don't know. Maybe. But I don't think I'll REALLY be old til I'm sweating to Cyndi Lauper!

Boredom is Underestimated

I grew up in a home where we learned that "the only people who are bored are boring people." I have raised my children with that philosophy.

HOWEVER, I think it is important to remember each day that QUIET does not mean BORING. My life has been so busy that I long for those quiet moments. Knitting. Reading. Playing the piano. I make time for prayers and scriptures and most days that has had to hold me lately.

If you had a quiet day, what would you spend it doing?

So You Think You Can Dance

Benji said about this picture "what kinda karate kid meets tom cruise meets geek?" He's a great guy and I had the opportunity to visit with him for my podcast. If you all are interested in hearing a little more about the spiritual side of Benji - have a listen!

I don't know about you, but my family followed the show start to finish and loved it all. We especially love Benji with his charm and ability to not take it all so seriously.

Who were you voting for? Benji says Tranji merchandise is coming soon. What a kick!
