The title of this drawing is It’s a Beautiful Day by artist<\/span><\/span> Pippi age five.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n
It is a picture of a dog with an orange on its back, standing near a strawberry bush. There is a baby bird on the lawn as well as a bird flying above. She just completed this work this morning.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n

I asked Pippi if I could have the drawing as I really liked it. She said, “Yes, but it is for sale. 35 dollars. 35 cash.” Yes, she really said all that.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>

<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>
So if anyone out there is in love with the drawing and willing to pay $35–it is for sale.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>
I love my daughters–they teach me so much each day. They are business women extraordinaries. Tabs has informed me she is now writing a cook book–and she should. She is the best baker I know. Her ginger snap cookies and brownies are the best I’ve ever had.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>
And my Mist is the most mature soul I know. I asked her to come with me when I taught my first Zumba class at UBC campus. She obliged. I wanted her to do the desk work (signing in students for me). She was so mature, so helpful, so encouraging. I honestly could not have done it with out her. We had over 35 students dancing! It was an amazing class with lots of energy. I worried, being the first time I’ve taught Zumba to all adults, as to how my students liked the class. \u00a0My answer came during the cool down song I played. I put on Hero<\/i><\/b> by Enrique Iglesais and told the class, “We’re cooling down to Enrique whether you like him or not.” Enrique is my one crush. I just love watching him perform. He’s so adorable \ud83d\ude42 Anyway, when the chorus came on, the entire class began to sing it–they sang through the cool down \ud83d\ude42 Very cool.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>

Had a very difficult week. Human against human issues–so new to me. I live in a world of human against self, human against nature. But having to teach Zumba Thursday night and again Friday afternoon focused me and exhausted me in good ways and all the other crap floated away. Of course I have delt with the other crap–stood up for my human rights and will take this struggle step by step. But thank God for DANCE and Dancers! I LOVE teaching Zumba–so much fun \ud83d\ude00<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>

<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b>
Off to the beach this afternoon +30 o C again! And then off to Vancouver for a few nights at the Hotel Vancouver \ud83d\ude42 Bringing all the babes with us this trip.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
