Challenge 14

Dear Reader,

It is confession time.  I love pop music- specifically top 40 and Britney Spears and Meghan Trainor and Katy Perry.  I probably shouldn't like it, but I do.  I wish I was more sophisticated and more of a snob.  But I am not.  As someone who struggles with what feels like intense sexual repression from the church and Christianity (that is a whole other bucket of worms that I do not wish to try to figure out here), I am so glad for this music.  It helps me loosen up without going absolutely crazy.  I get just enough movement and enough rhythm to get it out of my system to move on with my somewhat boring life.

Today's challenge was Dance Around the Living Room.  I had to do it quietly and quickly because it is Sunday.  Our house faces the church parking lot for goodness sake.  I don't need everyone looking in and wondering what craziness is going on in there.  Oops!  I already told you in this post- but who is even reading?  No one that I know, certainly.  I just youtubed a Britney Spears Mix and danced in the living room (with a little bit of shame but nevertheless)- I did it.  It is fun!  I usually try to pick a better time to do something like this- night time, everyone gone ect.- but I wasn't sure what I was going to check in with today so I went with the easiest one.  I only wish I had time to do a little Zumba and "Whip Whip Nae Nae". 

Looks like Challenge 18 is the most realistic "Take a Bath" but hopefully I can get the ball rolling on hosting a dinner party if I can get my courage up to do- never know.

What is your favorite music to dance to ?  Or do you not dance?  Let's all loosen up a little.  It keeps me sane. 

Yours Truly,
L.L.
