I love being a mommy! Happily married, 1 cat, 1 big dog... great dane that thinks he's a lap dog! Ugh!
I love to sing, play clarinet and sax. I am a cosmetologist and a retired massage therapist.

June Hafla solo
(blog entry)
The June Hafla was so much fun! I danced to Salaam's Bir Demet Yasemin (a bouquet of Jasmine). It's a Turkish song of love and longing. I improvised and it actually felt pretty good. There were a few moments of 'what next?', but overall, it went w...

Raquy and the Cavemen were in Iowa City July 17. Lucky us! Check them out at www.raquy.com.
First stop, a drum workshop and dancing hosted by Shira. The workshop was a nice intro to the doumbek starting with basic 'dum and tek'. Raquy led us through many patterns with this before adding the 'ka'. We played around with a few specific rythyms and Raquy played the kemenche while we accompanied her on our drums. With mixed levels of experience, this was a well balanced workshop that offered s...

The June Hafla was so much fun! I danced to Salaam's Bir Demet Yasemin (a bouquet of Jasmine). It's a Turkish song of love and longing. I improvised and it actually felt pretty good. There were a few moments of 'what next?', but overall, it went well. I look forward to seeing the video.

June was a busy month! I went to New York for the first time. I loved it! I attended classes at the Matrix Global Academy. Classes were great. Had a few extra days for fun and sightseeing.

Came across a man playing a drum with lots of lonely hula hoops on the ground in front of him... yes, I hula hooped in Central Park! It was great! The girls with me sat on the steps and watched while I had a blast!

I found out in early June that I'm pregnant! Baby is due Feb 6. I'm almost 14 weeks now and starting to feel more energetic in daily life. Can't complain, really. Lots of queasiness, but no real getting sick. I could sleep all the time if I didn't already have a life! ;o)
Sophia will be almost 4 years old when baby comes. I hope she'll dig being a big sister!
On to the ...
