About to dance smooth at embassy. With Larinda judging!!

And......she scored me above the other guy I danced against in 3 of 4 dances Woot Woot. This is an improvement for yours truly! Finally beat this other gentleman in some singles. And he's good!!

My first year garden has been generous, to say the least. I have so much canning to do.....I doubt I have enough jars and lids! Not complaining, mind you.

I got a new dress for smooth today that was less than 2/3 of my budget while spectating at a local event (10 minutes from my house). A thank you to the vendor for for being so good at what she does and to Pro for being so helpful. Plus, the comp was fun to watch, one of the New Guys was competing and he did well, and, as an extra little bonus, the parking was free.

A hotel bed. This one is so much more comfy than my husbands.

Makes me miss my memory foam mattress at my parents house.

I worked with a young dance studio owner this morning for over an hour. We really hit it off, and I think I will really be able to help her!

My first canning endeavor (this season) has been a success. It's late in the season, in the Pacific Northwest, so I had many green tomatoes to harvest. I made a batch of Salsa Verde (with green tomatoes, onions, garlic, red and jalapeno peppers, fresh corn, and cilantro). What can I say...but...yummers! I've got so much more to do, but am planning lots of tomatoes and tomatios next year for a triple batch of this deliciousness. I hope I can hold back, not eat it all in a week, and have this for a treat over the winter.

Having my garden has taken a tiny bit away from the pain of not dancing. Hopefully, in the future, I can find a balance in my life, and return to lessons and competing.

Getting your hands in the dirt can be very therapeutic.

I think we've gotten a total of 3 tomatoes this summer from our plant. Our herbs on the other hand are doing amazing.

Interesting....as my herbs were less than spectacular this year. Hmmm....

 

[stash]

Weird. Yeah our plant has grown like a weed. It's huge and we bought it as a little baby thing. But no tomatoes. It's really weird

We have a basil plant that's about 2' tall!

I've decided I'm going to get a job at the rail yard and specialize in driving the locomotives backwards. I always wanted to be a reverse engineer.
