Note from the Universe

This was in my e-mail this morning. Pretty sure this is what I was trying to say yesterday!

You're right, Nicole; too much self-discipline will discourage your playful, wandering imagination. It'll snuff out the flames of inspiration and creativity. And it'll weigh you down with routines and logic. It simply isn't "spiritual."
But, then, neither is too little.
I've never had great balance!

I'm Back

OK, I haven't actually gone anywhere. But I have felt somewhat lost sinse our move.
Moving is great because it gives you an opportunity to reinvent the parts of yourself you'd rather do without.
Problem with reinvention is it works better with a plan.
Problem with planning?
I don't do it.
I've always had this picture of myself as an achiever. You know, organized and driven. Well, come to find out, I'm not. I think I'm more of a free spirit. I need a flexible schedule, with room to run, space to breath, and time for lots of physical activity.
Things worked well for me in Carrington, so why was I wanting a change? I don't really know. I think I just lost myself for awhile. But I'm back to the old addage...If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
And in the spirit of that dependable phraze, I have gotten back to dance.
That right. Last night was the first night of Mobridge Just For Kix.

I have 5 classes of dancers signed up for a 12 week session. I plan to do a small show at the end of our 12 weeks and then start a full season in September.
It was so great to be back working with kids. Being silly and dancing again.
I think Ryan and the girls are glad to have ME back, too.
Why did I ever stop?
