Have you heard it’s cold outside? I’m amazed at how fully the world is shutting down this week. Although I love winter – that’s me in Alaska last January in this picture – even I am frustrated by the snow and cold we’ve been experiencing this month. I don’t like winter interfering with my dancing! …
DetailsSeems like every other day it’s a snowstorm, ice storm, or temperature drop, and today is no exception. Due to the snowfall predicted, Cathy and I decided it was better to err on the side of caution and cancel the 9:30 am Elgin class. If the snow is still bad at 1 pm, the Hanover…
DetailsI returned last night from a refreshing week’s vacation to Covington, Kentucky and Nashville, Tennessee. Take a look at Nashville from the fourth floor rooftop lounge of Tootsie’s on Broadway. Doesn’t the town look like a child’s toy village? The Strip of Nashville is a busy, hopping place with people shoulder to shoulder at night,…
DetailsL-R: Eli with my younger daughter Kat (Indiana) & newly married David and Jessa Henry (Kentucky) I celebrated Christmas this past Saturday – BEFORE Christmas – for the first time ever.

DetailsA couple of weeks ago I visited Washington Island, which is the northernmost tip of Door County, Wisconsin. It's only accessible by a half hour ferry ride. The locals are very friendly, and I talked to a lot of them when I was up there. It fascinates me that only 710 people live there year-round.…
DetailsThere’s nothing like a wedding to make a mother get all teary-eyed!! My daughters are both in their 20’s, and my older one, Jessica, is getting married this Saturday in her “new” (since grad school) hometown of Louisville, KY, to the most perfect man in the world for her, David Henry. Want to attend? The wedding…
DetailsI've been guilty of staying in my own bubble for most of my life. I pay attention to my home, my family, and my work. I'm content dealing with those areas. I'm not the only one who does this; everyone has a bubble, even though life is much bigger. Long ago I noticed all…
DetailsLately, you have heard me encourage you to “Dance With Janet” at this or that event. As a group, we have performed for an audience as well as line danced for fun at concerts. Why have I asked you to do this? Why perform, anyway? If you have ever mentally or physically shaken your head at me…
