Every time there was a road block, I thought maybe I shouldn't go through with it, but I just kept going forward and yes I feel such exhilaration that I did it! And now I feel more ready to keep at my writing and sending ms out. :)<br /><br />Louise-I only took a little dance when I was younger and would love to get back to it eventually. My daughter ice dances and loves it! It's too bad there is no club near you, maybe you can at least find some ice to practice on. A rink nearby is always a prerequisite for our moves! :)<br /><br />Kyra- Thanks! It does feel good! And I heard you have a new book out to be proud of. :) Congratulations on Sidelined!<br />kjmckendryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534751311630921447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218083438284138876.post-30824942540685003802014-03-10T14:21:23.981-04:002014-03-10T14:21:23.981-04:00Excellent stuff!

I ended up truly loving it (even though it took me twice as long to "get" the dances as it had when I was a teenager). We've moved now, and there's no club around here where I can find a coach, and oh, I miss it so much now! It's amazing how quickly it gets back into your blood.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17840731400749105419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218083438284138876.post-45797192992019965002014-03-10T13:23:10.828-04:002014-03-10T13:23:10.828-04:00I love it.

I din't know about you, but I find it painful and a little terrifying... and I'm always a little surprised to discover that I didn't die once I'm through to the other side... but then I feel exhilarated! Inspired! I hope that you did, too!fairbettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11641997265787156629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218083438284138876.post-36672461005494357832014-03-10T11:59:43.386-04:002014-03-10T11:59:43.386-04:00You are a brave lady!
