Square dancing is an American folk dance performed by four couples in a square formation, guided by a caller who announces the steps and movements. It has roots in European dances like the Morris dance and the quadrille.

Dancers are arranged in a square, with one couple on each side facing the centre.
A caller directs the dancers by announcing the steps and movements .

Square dances are part of a broad spectrum of dances known by various names: country dances, traditional dances, folk dances, barn dances, ceilidh dances, contra dances, Playford dances, etc

And good afternoon to Continental Euro-SHEs !

trissie WTG being productive yesterday! Do you have one rhubarb, or more ? I want us to have one. I'm nto sure how much space it takes ?

Kittykatt, thanks for the detailed explanation about sea shanties. there are sailor songs in every country I suppose, well many types of such songs but more specifically the ones with a rhythm to coordinate the efforts in a team on a ship when heaving or other moves.

Gma lol about the soap theft drama. Not so much lol about the time spent in shops with her, shopping for unimportant things for hours.

helia as long as your DH usually lives and works in the US, I would say he should be safe when re-entering the country. I hope you find reassuring answers to ease your mind.

Hi to L.Ann, lauralind, Peaches, everyone else !

Rainy Sunday. We had a nice evening and dinner with MrNg's payroll friends last night, the ones from his previous job who have become really good friends, even though MrNG left and another woman left the place since. The two other are still in the same place and things aren't improving for them. We talked a lot about many things and families and travels and... well it's noce to have a social life sometimes.
This morning MrNg and I spent almost an hour discussing how to be more disciplined about cleaning and organising the house, as we don't have guests often, and each time we do last-minute cleaning and it ends up with some tension between us. To avoid any more last-minute stress and not-nice things being said, we are trying to find new ways to do house chores.
I talked about Flylady several times, he knows already about the system of course . We decided to commit ourselves to 30-mns of decluttering/organizing, each week, each of us. We also discussed cleaning, and missions for kids. I like that he is as commited as I am to : - having a cleaner home, ready for social life, - avoiding situations where we have harsh words, - trying new things, "discipline" in a positive way, and exploring things together.

Morning all. Yuck. Snow. Wet gross warm spring snow. 2 inches that's going to be water by later morning likely.

Gma your mom can still walk the stores for a few hours? Amazing. Have to figure out how to keep my mom moving. She does ok some days and next she can barely get up off the couch. Her endure is gone.

Helian how easy it is to let the mind get away with stuff that will likely never happen.

Frenchie you have a very understanding and caring dh. Mrng is a keeper. Wanting to work together like this.

Morning kittykat.

I think I will get in the shower soon. Hopefully today will be less cooking. Dad's fridge and mine are full of leftovers. Ds has bball right after church. The kids decided to go for a drive for their anniversary. So we'll see. Hopefully we can see that yet but I was kind of expecting anniversary is for them to do something together.

Dad wants to move his tv upstairs today. That will require dh to help. See what happens. Maybe while ds is at bball. He has just enough of a cold/ cough that I don't want to bring to grandpa.

Technically I could go wash the walls before I shower. Nope. It's Sunday and I need a day off. But I need the project done too.... what to do.

Shower
S&s both baths and reboot laundry
Tidy laundry room and master bedroom some

Empty and reload dw
Finish tidying kitchen all the way
Tidy main living space some

The show wasn’t bad helian. High School Musical would not be my first choice of shows. The sets were interesting and the scene changing flawless…. Long scene changes can be a real issue in high school shows! There were a lot of dances and the choreography was good. The acting was fine…. Everyone was about the same caliber… no stand out performers.

1-get ground turkey out to defrost
2-find new book and read a bit
3-mop bathroom floor

Good morning, everyone. It's my day off. I can't drive anywhere as the brakes have gone out on the car, and I have no appointments, so I can concentrate on the apartment. There is cleaning to do, but what I really want to concentrate on is the tidying. Reclaiming space from clutter.

Thank you for starting us off, kittykatt. Have a good time at church.

FrenchFly, it sounds like you and your DH are on a good track for staying on top of the housework. That's a big one!

Good morning, L.Ann. Enjoy your walk.---I see that you are back already.

That sounds like a very impressive project that your DH is working on, helia. Enjoy church.

That is another excellent idea, Gma. The voice of experience. Enjoy church and breakfast.
