Felt out of place I guess, and so did I, but I'm thinking that most people feel that way at their first lesson. Good for you for sticking it out and finding a way to use it!Cheryl Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11464377381132807409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-42083819223200822662010-02-14T18:59:43.932-05:002010-02-14T18:59:43.932-05:00Good song, Suzy.

What you said about your late husband reminds me of a line from Designing Women where Dixie Carter's new beau Hal Holbrook says, "I wouldn't want a woman who would stop loving a man just because he died." Lovely sentiment.

My DH tries, but he needs a few drinks in him and then he can be a bit of a menace on the dance floor. Plus, when we slow dance, my nose is right at the level of his arm pit. Um... NO THANX!<br /><br />My sister and I LOVED to dance when we were kids. Every Saturday we watched American Bandstand and copied all the cool dancers there. <br /><br />I haven't danced in years (see above for reasons why) but on my last cruise, they had an Argentine couple who did a whole show of tango numbers and OMGOSH! It was SMOKIN HOT!!! I'd LOVE to be able to dance like that.<br /><br />ACLoucinda McGary aka Aunty Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02217492654108300014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-88685664278102964462010-02-14T15:12:07.941-05:002010-02-14T15:12:07.941-05:00Cheryl

Then I had an idea for a SEAL book in which the heroine was a ballroom instructor and the SEAL recovering from injuries. I said to myself, it's now or never--the dance lessons might be tax deductible.<br /><br />LIke a lot of ideas for books, that one fizzled, but I kept going with the lessons. I did use them eventually. Lo and behold, ballroom dancing became the hobby of the heroine of SEALed With A Ring, coming in March.<br /><br />I'm kind of with you Cheryl.

That was our first dance. (My Hot Pink Earrings and Sexy High Heels helped) I knew then that he was the man I wanted to Tango with forever. Tonight I'm going to put on the old "Turtles" Album and Dance to "So Happy Together" And remember when he looked like James Dean and was chewing on my ears at the Prom Center.diva donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04082281967754671607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-181847834304420402010-02-14T11:59:41.514-05:002010-02-14T11:59:41.514-05:00Hi Lisa!

I got up, put on the coffee and ignored the sink of dirty dishes to come and play on the computer. It's okay, I can hear my hubby loading the dishwasher right now. Happy Valentine's Day to me!<br /><br />My husband can't dance either. In fact, when we first started dating I had a hard time not giggling. We stuck to slow dancing which was just fine.<br /><br />The Bucket List was a great movie and there is a show on MTV where four young guys have made a list of 100 things that they want to do. Some of it has been stupid, but some of it has been quite incredible and they are learning that it's the things that they do for others that mean the most!<br /><br />Happy Hearts Day to all!Helycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00090458739071949361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-20128945976442038742010-02-14T11:01:18.695-05:002010-02-14T11:01:18.695-05:00Ana needs Salsa lessons!!!
