Whhhhhhhheeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. That was me exhaling. I am the front desk secretary at a charter high school in Springville and our first day of school is tomorrow so we have been working hard to prepare. We got a new school building that we couldn't move in to until Wednesday of last week, and then we had a back to school night at the building the next day.
Yesterday I was stopped at a stop light and was surprised to enjoy some high quality entertainment. There was a woman (I think) holding a sign for Little Ceasar's pizza dancing around on the side walk. I have only seen cartoons dancing the way this woman could. She would shoot her legs out to the side really fast one after the other and then she shot them out a little higher. She was doing grapevine's and step-together-steps to the left and right. All of a sudden she shot her left leg back behind her and did this weird bend with it like a snake. All of her movements were short and fast and quite hilarious. The funny thing about this is she was just dancing to her own beat--there were NO headphones in her ears and no stereo system playing music. How did she DO that?
I spent some time in California with my oldest bro and his family. We did a little sword fighting and I did some rear-end-kicking. Mom caught our sweet action on camera which is what you enjoyed at the beginning of this post.

We loved having you come! I hope you had a good quick flight back and especially hope you had a great time with "A". Does he read your blog? Should I use code names?
The have to laugh that you're not sure if that dancing person was a woman or not. Good luck with school...and with the aforementioned boy that Val alluded to in her comment.
Those jumping pictures are awesome! We have a little Ceasars sign holder by us that Kendall calls the "foot guy". He stands there with the top half of his body totally still and his feet just go and go. We love it when we pass by on his shift. What a horrible job, though. Your job, however, sounds so fun to me. Challenging and busy and fulfilling. Wouldn't you so much rather be super busy at a job like that, than not busy but doing something like dancing on the sidewalks. Sure, it's easier and more fun sometimes, but you have nothing challenging you into growth. I loved my days at Pediatric Care. Busy and stressful soemtimes, lots of issues with parents and insurance, lots of time on the phone or filing or copying,etc. But so fulfilling at the end of a day when you realize you are a key component in making that business run smoothly and that you're learning to be more patient, efficient, tolerant, friendly, etc. If you can see all the challenges you face in your job as an opportunity for growth and learning, you're going to be ready for principal in no time.:)
Dear Abby,
I love you and I simply must tell you that no Little Caesars dancing woman can beat your balloon head dancing. You are a grade A form of entertainment!
Abby,
Remind me to never tell your family about any of my secret crushes . . . because they wouldn't stay secret for long.
:)
