I am at school waiting to give an exam in about 30 minutes. I hope my students do well.
I have been working at the Dekalb County School of the Arts for the past three Wednesday evenings and have one more to finish setting a piece of choreography. I have also taught a pointe class before rehearsal. I am so impressed with the level and dedication of students there. The ballet program is run by a former student of mine from Winthrop University. She and her modern counterpart have done a great job with the students there. It has been a very enjoyable experience. I must say that each week when I leave I am energized yet ready to see my babies and husband. The drive is long but so far I haven't encountered too bad traffic which is saying a lot for Atlanta.
It is also nice and scary to do ballet steps again. I have NO control over my body. I am sure I will embarrass myself at the reunion. But it will just have to be. I feel that Ruth and Grayson don't get enough of my time as is. I don't feel that I can be giving myself barre everyday just to save face in front of my old professors. Hopefully, they will understand.
