Big Night Out


Guess what we did last night???? We went to a benefit and danced to BBVD live!!! It was so great. I was shocked by the amount of people we talked to last night who hadn't seen the movie Swingers. It was an amazing movie and BBVD was feartured in it. If you don't know who BBVD is they are Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and they are an amazing swing band that appeals to ALL ages. They rock! And they rocked last night. McDada has a bum foot so he couldn't do much dancing, but he got out there with me for the slow tunes! The benefit was for High Hopes, " premier therapeutic riding center and international instructor training facility in Old Lyme, Connecticut, serving people with physical, psychological and emotional disabilities for more than a quarter of a century". An amazing program. There was an annonymous quote on a large poster photograph of a smiling child hugging the horse she was riding on, that said, "the best way to the inside of a person is the outside of a horse" Isn't that true? Horses are increadible animals...
Speaking of...Anyone see the Belmont? I missed it. But read the article in the paper and was excited for the first filly in a long time to win. You go girl!


Anyway, the couples therapy is really helping. McDada and I are not only doing more together, but communicating and not fighting as much. We had a great time last night. As we were dancing, McDada joked that he could cross off lots of things from my "I'd like to do more of list" , Charity, dinner out, and a concert all in one night! That ought to hold me ...for a while...

That is wonderful that you guys are doing more together, keep it up. Communication and being open with one another is key. Let him know how you feel!
