Hey, that was *fun*

[ppfuf]

This year’s dance ball was great. We had about 80 people, which was a good turn-out for a non-rainy day. I had a really great time. It occurred to me on my way to church this morning that the reason I’d had such a good time last night was because for the past two years the dance ball had been a test of endurance and pain management. After the foot surgery last March (thank you Jesus for the miracles of modern medicine!), and a way longer recovery period than I’d hoped for, I’m finally back to being able to dance all afternoon and evening with no more pain than any desk-worker who suddenly decides to spend a day moving around.

We had fewer musicians than usual this year, so a double helping of thanks to those who came to play: Geoffrey Matthias, Vyncent Atte Woodgate, Alef of King’s Crossing, Catharine de Holocombe,  John Rossingol, Tangwystyl verch Morgant Glasvryn, and Alessandro Cantori.

Thanks also to my fellow dance teachers: Vyncent, Aasa, and Brocc.

Bonus thanks to the autocrat team: Violet, who made things pretty; Cin, who negotiated for the lovely hall, and John, who jumped on the grenade to save the rest of us. Again.

I wish I could have gone. I've been pretty much useless all weekend, and may call in sick to work tomorrow, too. Sigh.

And John does tend to save the day beautifully, doesn't he?

I'm so sad I missed it! Sounds like it was a blast. :-)

A lovely time! Thank you for the support and it was a lovely ball indeed.

It was a very nice ball this year. I really relaxed and enjoyed myself, and visited with a lot of people.

It is always great fun to stand behind Their Majesties and know who's getting what so I can watch their faces when they are called up.
