music_and_poetry Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 So I won't post my story here but I am in NC (have been about 3 weeks) and have been Facebook free for 6 days. I am feeling better. I have good days and not so good days. Yesterday was a bit of a down day, today I feel better I just got paid (I have a small part-time job where I get paid once a month). I'm a teacher so money is always tight in the summer. After paying all my bills, I had a small amount left over and decided I wanted to treat myself. I'm going to sign up for belly dance lessons at a local studio! I have tried belly dancing on my own for years (watching DVDs, reading books) but I've never actually taken lessons. I figure this is something I can do for myself that I will enjoy and look forward each week! I'm planning on signing up for 12 classes to start. What does everyone think? Awesome idea or what? 1

bubbaganoosh Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Hey. What ever floats your boat. If it makes you feel good then go for it.
Chi townD Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 YES!!! That's what I'm talkin about! Make positive changes that will make YOU happy! Hell, yeah! Take belly dancing lessons! Proud of you! 1
Author music_and_poetry Posted July 15, 2014 Author Posted July 15, 2014 Ahhh! To add to my great mood today I got a call for a job interview with a GREAT school district tomorrow! I already have a job set for the fall but this might be an even better move for me! EEEEE!!! :) 1
bluelady Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Good for you! It sounds like things are starting to turn around! 1
Author music_and_poetry Posted July 15, 2014 Author Posted July 15, 2014 I've been feeling wonderful all day! So happy things are finally taking a turn for the better!
OK_computer Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Ahhh! To add to my great mood today I got a call for a job interview with a GREAT school district tomorrow! I already have a job set for the fall but this might be an even better move for me! EEEEE!!! :) That's great news! What school district if you dont mind me asking.. I graduated from the Livingston school district. My brother from the west windsor-plainsboro dist. I think Flemington is good too. Short hills and Millburn are excellent too. Heheh Congrats and good luck!
Author music_and_poetry Posted July 16, 2014 Author Posted July 16, 2014 It's in Hackensack. Funny, I applied to positions at Millburn and also Flemington. Flemington's application procedure was a bit strange. Anyways, fingers crossed! I already have a secured job so either this one works out or it doesn't but things are still on the up and up either way! 1
grays Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Both belly dancing and job prospect sound exciting! Yay! When I realized my 25 yr relationship was heading south, the first thing I did was to start learning salsa and it has been a lifesaver now that we 're separated. I've been going dancing several nights a week. 1
Snakechammah Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Aww... I did bellydancing too! Took classes and through DVDs but it's been years since I danced. Thank you for reminding us that we should all learn to dance our pain away. It really help! Good luck with your new job, and all the best for your healing. 1

When I realized my 25 yr relationship was heading south, the first thing I did was to start learning salsa and it has been a lifesaver now that we 're separated. I've been going dancing several nights a week. @grays I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to learn salsa! But being a single girl does have some disadvantages buuut I still have some really awesome curves on me and I'm going to learn to shake, and shimmy my confidence back! Probably a sexy skill to have anyway Aside from this cool job prospect, I also auditioned to become the new lead singer for this kick ass rock band in NJ. They want me to come back again and sing with them so things are looking good on that end too! I'm going to become this belly dancing, rock singing, groovy career woman which is way better than who I was a month ago! Loser face is about to find out the kind of woman he let go of! His loss 2

This will be my first time in classes and I am so excited! Saturday morning is my first class! Thank you so much for the well wishes! 1
