Are you a poet or a motivational speaker

The other night I was dancing at Century Ballroom.  I was sitting watching the dancers as I was taking a break. A woman was standing in front of me.  She had the jeans with rips in the legs. She is skinny and seems like she has a good rhythm.  I am thinking that my break should be over and I should ask her to dance. Then some one asks her dance. Ok I will sit and enjoy my break. Later in the night I dance at her.  Her name is Amanda.  She asks me if I come there often as she has never seen me before. I realized that I have not been as often as I thought I went dancing.  I said I go often dancing, but I travel a lot. She asks if I live here.  Yes, I live here but I travel to other places. She askes me what I do.  She continues and says I must be a poet or a motivational speaker.  Yes I replied.  I would like to be those.  She said it is easy to be a motivational speaker, just be positive and speak with confidence. I said  that I always wanted to be a religious leader, but I have not had that awakening. Yes that is me.  I ask her if she will be there next week, she says maybe, but it is complicated.  She asked me if I will wear beret. Yes but probably a different color.    It was nice imagining that I am a poet or motivation speaker.  Maybe I had my religious awakening, not spending on things but we should  spend money on experiences.

Norwegian mannskor and apartment maintenance

On Monday I went for a walk, then Pilates, then to replace the faucet, unclog a sink, replace a switch, and then go to the Norweigen men's choir. As maintenance projects go I need return as the shut off valve is broken and it causes reduced pressure to the sink.  I ordered the part and said I would return.  It was the board meeting at the choir.  I had not completed all the things I needed to do.  I have to get them done this week.  A letter, minutes.  I would also like to put together a short summary of the cod fish dinner.  I think it will be important to have for next year.  We need to get the date on the calendar for events, and to put them out on the website.  People put events on the calendar early.  We are singing on Wednesday for a erlings brother' celebration of life.  That will be interesting.  We practiced a couple of songs

Two years ago I agreed to sell a lot so a house could be built. The builder had to get permits and go through a reason use permit process. I was by there this week and the notice sign was installed.  I hope it will start this year.  I went to the property because the tenants of the house next to it had an electrical problem.

magnolia chorale and apartment maintenance

Choir concerts.  This last weekend was busy with two concerts with the magnolia chorale.  On Saturday evening there was a nice gala with food and drinks.  On Sunday we sang at the ascension Lutheran Church for an afternoon concert.  Singing in the chorale is nice.  After I went to the transfer station to drop off an old mattress that the tenants left behind.  When I was on my way home I got a call about water dripping from the ceiling. After dinner I went to check it out.  It turns out the kitchen faucet was leaking.  I said I would return the next day to replace it.  After I went dancing at Century. It was a busy Sunday
