primsongCan't believe I haven't posted since the wedding in March - where has spring/summer gone? Still working at the soap-makers/perfumers and loving it, still slowly looking for a new property with some near misses but no new house yet, still dancing, etc. I've been learning to dance with props (swords, fans, veils, wings, etc) and have really taken to the fan veils. I had my first ever restaurant performance with them, woo! Very nerve-wracking but it went fairly well at least, I only had one hair doodad go flying off halfway through. Fans require lots of spinning.
My daughter and new son-in-law have moved into the lower half of my house and we get along famously, which has been good all around. Once away from his rather controlling 'manly man' father he was able to re-evaluate who he really is and found his passion in making ugly things look beautiful - SO we now have them both learning to sew and he just started into getting his cosmetology degree. :-D He was so afraid he'd be the only guy in the class but there's another dude and he's even also military so they are really enjoying themselves and the other guy is showing him how to do amazing braids. We get to be guinea-pigs!
As a bonus, both of my kids found weekend work at a local tea house where she is in the kitchen and he is dressed up complete with watch-chain, silk tie and pocket-square to serve ladies high tea. It's fahhhbulous!
