I know Nan. I live in a 250 unit apartment building and I up a notice for
anyone to come down to the community room on Monday's at 3:00 to do sing-a-long
to Christmas Carol's for the months of November & December. I have NOT ben able
to be there because I've been in bed. It's ONE freaking HOUR a WEEK!!!!
But I have managed to gather 5 kind understanding women who have met with
me to practice 7 Christmas songs that we are going to sing at the building
Christmas party this Wednesday (I'll be up because I'm going to the Doctor's
and then December 11th for the social club party that i'm GOING to no matter
what.
In January, February & March on Tuesday's around 4:00 I'm going to TRY and
lead once a week a movement & meditation class. But I CAN'T promise that I can
be there. It just drive me NUTS!!!
