I'm listening to my body and taking a break. Going for a few days to a health farm for a bit of R&R and a little bit of pampering. Don't know how it happened but having decided that I was way too far behind to even consider performing at the bellydance Hafla on the 18th - after a lesson yesterday I found myself thinking that maybe...with about 10 hours practice...I could just about master the locked undulations, the bellypops and the final part of the choreography....maybe I could get a costume together in time....maybe? I must be mad. Will see how I feel when I get back.

Haven't done anything for Christmas yet - apart from cooking meal for all tennants on Friday night - from both houses. Should be interesting.
