This weather is heavenly!
The dance studio year-end party was last night. Pizza is ordered, snacks come and we watch the recital video. This time pictures came off the walls to go home with former students, folks took home holiday decorations. I ended up with a framed puzzle that hung on the wall for many years, of Miss Piggy, Kermit, some art deco buildings in the background and a bunch of tuxedoed rats, all dancing. Miss Peggy was called Miss Piggy in error by many young kids in the 70s/80s and era of Jim Henson. It will hang on my bedroom wall. I'll be helping them clean things out early next week (must be all emptied out by the end of July). My good friends who own a kung fu studio will take the old red and white striped mats, and maybe some mirrors. Craziness.
Our porch is almost all closed in with fancy new windows and doors! I can't wait to paint and decorate. We need to get some carpet tiles for it. We also need to repair our broken concrete steps and put railings up. I got a new house # and some solar sconces. Very exciting!
My cousin's wedding is Saturday in CT, so Mina is going to sleep over at my brother's house (they are going to the wedding) and we will have some time to ourselves before we head out. It will be FUN! I had a blast dancing at his older brother's wedding in DC last year. We don't see each other a lot, but we were quite close as kids. It is fun now, getting together when we have our own kids and drastically different lives.
