Greetings
all!
I
love it that the 1st of April fell on a Monday! No more excuses to stay lazy! Here are some great ideas how to get moving.
My
favorite ideas were from April 13, 19, 21, 22, and 28. In fact, I decided to
rehearse the April 22 idea today so I blasted my current favorite song and really went for
it! Also, I think April 25 is will be a challenge! What about you?
