The other night, Josie Rothwell, Kim's sister, came over for dinner along with Graham and Kim. It was wonderful to see her as she lives in Syndey, Australia! Josie is a wonderful woman, just like Kim! She also has a blog, which have added as a link, so check it out.
We had a good meal and all went out afterwards to the Hothouse, a local cultural center which featured Jazz and Swing dancing. "Yoko Noge and the Jazz Me Blues" played, they were fabulous! I used to hear Yoko and her band perform back in the day when I was really into swing dancing. It was really refreshing for us all go out together. I got to dance a bit with a friend that I knew years back. It was great to remember how life-giving it is to dance! Steven and I danced together, too, which was a blast. Kim, being a dance movement therapist, studies and teaches the power of movement and the joy it brings. It brought me a little bit of joy which I have forgotten in the daily grind. It was a little gift to me, a reminder to cultivate more of that in my life.
