Christine > Day 86: Tap I'm 41 and I am currently enrolled in an "Adult" Tap class. Several of my co-workers and I take weekly lessons every Friday night with a goal of performing in a recital in June. Personally, i could do without the recital part but the class is fun and it's a little bit of exercise. There's a wide range of ages in our group. Melissa (also known as "Mini Me" because she's 4'10") is 24, Patty, Marian, and Joanne are in their early 50's and as I mentioned I'm 41. We dance to "Chattanooga Choo Choo" but really we're just a train wreck. There are a few women older than anyone in our group- two look like they're in their 70's and they just can't remember a lot of steps in succession. Me, I'm about as graceful as a bull in a china store and Patty falls. All the time- seriously, like EVERY class. And not a quick slip or loss of balance mind you. A cartoon-like fall where her feet just slip out from under her and her legs fly up in the air and she lands flat on her back. Every class. And she gets up every time and takes a bow. Some of my family are way too enthusiastic about going to the recital and I'm CERTAIN it's not because they love me or because they're interested in tap. It's all about the video recorder and You Tube. Good thing I have a sense of humor!
Christine > Day 71: Piling March 12, 2009 It's almost spring here on Long Island- at least it looked that way today. I made three pit stops on my way home from work today and took a bunch of potential "photos of the day". I let the hubs pick out his favorite. I took quite a few that made me very happy which is unusual. I guess that's a sign that things are brigtening up since changing the clocks last week. Yay! I uploaded the other to my North Fork gallery: http://christinefriberg.smugmug.com/gallery/6907218_qgusN#490210888_7nsLd
Christine > Day 134: Flower Petals May 14, 2009 Not sure I like this one, I took several photos of my co-worker's dying bouquet of flowers today and I reluctantly picked this one as the photo of the day. My other choices are in my alternate gallery. http://christinefriberg.smugmug.com/gallery/7924959_mrhiP#536599692_6LjCV
Christine > Day 154: Frankie the Pug June 3, 2009 This is Frankie and she's a girl. I'm not usually a small dog lover but Frankie has stolen my heart. My husband has already had a lot of time with her and he refers to her as "his girlfriend". In fact, the first time he was going to visit our friend he said, "I"m off to see my girlfriend". My head snapped around so fast my head nearly popped off. He had a stupid grin on his face and told me his girlfriend is a pug. I was OK with that. :)

Christine > Day 176: Saranac Lake III - Breakfast over an open fire June 26, 2009 These were the eggs I cooked on Friday. An egg is just an egg and tastes just like an egg, but somehow when they're prepared over an open fire deep in the mountains, they just taste better. :)
Christine > Day 96: Baby Lambs April 6, 2009 Right down the road from me is an organic farm that is home to several animals including a goat, a heiland cow, a black sheep (with a new baby) and a couple of lambs and their two babies, seen here. I've taken pictures here before (they're in my NoFo Gallery) but it was a very grey day and the shots didn't come out as well as I would have liked. Today is beautiful. These guys kept running away when I would approach them (even though I was on the opposite side of the fence). I was glad to get this shot of the one sticking his tongue out at me as the other cautiously watches. If you think that's fresh, you should have heard the loud noise the big lamb let out- not sure if he was "growling" at me or what it was but it sounded like the biggest burp I've ever heard.
Christine > Day 151: Dakota May 31, 2009 My cousin Cathy recently lost her favorite dog Emma- she referred to her as her "soul mate". She was crushed by the loss. Meet Dakota, the newest addition to her family. A dachound like Emma. Adorable, right? The perfect thing to heal open wounds. Cathy drove up from Virginia and a bunch of us went to a "chick party" complete with a psychic. The psychic saw many things in my future- a move to the south east coast, possibly North Carolina in two years, two children, and she thinks I will make a lot of money if I go into children and pet photography here on Long Island. Oh, and when I asked her when I'll be getting a wide angle lens, she said she saw it coming to me in the next 3 weeks. Sounds impossible to me but I'll keep my fingers crossed lol.
Christine > Day 53: French Toast February 22, 2009 My cousin Amy and my mom came over last night for dinner and a movie. The hubs had nowhere to go so the poor guy was there too. He should have smelled the boobie trap. Plenty of food and even more wine - I made one of my favorites: Pasta Bolognese. I should mention that my mother is an old school Republican and Amy is a staunch Liberal while Ken and I are somewhat Independent and usually vote for whoever is closest to the center rather than by party. A few comments about Obama and George W. caused the upset of the decade with mom flying off the handle. Whoever said alcohol and politics don't mix is a genius. Amy got to go home after the movie but Mom stayed the night. I made some French Toast for breakfast and Ken, always the joker, told his mother in law that she was eating Freedom Toast- a nod to our former President. Two out of three of us agreed that it was all Ken's fault since he poured the wine (always the fall guy!) and now all is right with the world.
