On dancing...

What music makes you want to dance?

I was a teenager when American Bandstand was the craze so I grew up with dancing music from 1960 on. Anything with a lively beat will set my feet to tapping and my hands to patting. Now, though, dancing is a thing of the past. I dance mostly in my head since I tend to trip over my own feet.

I have a story in my Memoir folder about how I learned to dance, so long ago. It brings back precious memories. It's so much better to dance your way through life than walk, but for now I'll be happy with toe tapping, singing (to myself) and whistling. Whistling is what happens when I find myself exceedingly happy about something. Often, I'm not aware of whistling and will catch myself with surprise. And that makes me even happier.
