It's a SIGN!

Today as I sit here drinking my mint tea 
from my black mug with white polka dots... 
the SIGN inside my cup says...
"KEEP IT SIMPLE"


Here are some signs I photographed 
while having a very long wait at 
the Dr.'s office yesterday...











Ok... the signs above are all self explanitory!
And this is a picture of my chocolate chip cookies
on Sunday under the sign that says "LOVE"
...and who doesn't LOVE choclolate chip cookies!

I was CRAVING CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES...
so it was a SIGN that I should make some!


The perfect saying about cookies is"Friends are the chocolate chips
in the cookies of life."Author Unknown


So Today my blog is about signs...
more or less!

I have been going to the gym a lot lately and having some issues with my lower back
above my right hip.
I have also been experiencing numb toes off and on since pretty much shortly after
I quit my dance teaching career.
That was my first SIGN
to get it all checked out!


So what are the SIGNS??????
OK I have been to Dr. visits,
chiropractors and physiotherapists....
and cannot seem to figure out what the symptoms mean...


Last week I did more classes than normal
at the gym... all of which I really enjoyed
due to the fact the instructors
are all so great at GOODLIFE gym.


However.... that being said...
my sore hip and numb toes
have been giving me more grief...
so it was once again A SIGN
 to get it checked again!


So I headed to a medi clinic on Sunday.
The Dr. there told me to take ALEVE
and make an appointment with
my family Dr. to get a
possible X-RAY and or
referral to a specialist.
So I made an appointment for
 1 PM yesterday with a DR. in
my Dr.'s office, due to the fact
my Dr. could not see me
until June 21st at the earliest.
(That was kind of a SIGN that
my worries are not that important!)


I sat in the waiting room of the office for
over 2 hours yesterday at that appointment waiting patiently for my turn to see the Dr.
It was almost a SIGN to leave and come back another day, but I figured I wasn't sure of getting in any quicker next time either,
so stuck it out!


When I finally got called to the small cubicle they put me into...  to do more waiting,
I was happy to have my camera to snap some photos of the SIGNS in that small room!
And although this wait was not as long as the one in the waiting room,
it was still long enough to snap
8 photos before the DR. came in.



He talked for maybe 5 minutes max before handing me a sheet to go for an X-Ray...
so off I went to that place to do
some more waiting!


Following the X-RAYS which took maybe another 5 to 10 minutes,
they told me the results would be back
at my Dr.'s office within the next few days!
Oh Yay.....
more "HURRY UP AND WAIT!"
(I think they need a sign
that says that in the DR.'s office!)


I just knew there were enough SIGNS
 to give the gym a wee break today
and took Shuffle for a walk instead.
While on my walks,
my ipod always plays the soundtrack to life  giving me lots of SIGNS
of what is happening
in my daily life!


I love a quote and sign with a good message. There have been many in emails, and posted on facebook along with others here,
there and everywhere along the way.


I have been trying to connect
with some friends but not always
successful in doing so, so that is
a "sign"
they are too busy for me
in their lives right now!



I have enjoyed the people in my life
who do have time to spend in either conversation on the computer,
phone or in person!


Tomorrow and the next day
I will be spending time babysitting
the grandkids.
That is a A SIGN of how blessed
 I am to have them so close!


I am going out for coffee with
my good friend, Ella later today.
We often go after the gym,
but because we didn't go
to the gym today...
we will just go for coffee!


I have sure enjoyed SYTYCD and
ABDC on TV lately.
Both of these dance shows
have had great dancing on them.


I still find things with DANCE
to be inspiring...
it is a sign...
"Once a dancer always a dancer!"

My Dance Friend, Kristy,
is being honored today at the
YWCA WOMAN OF DISTINCTION
banquet. I was to her show weeks ago,
and she is a deserving candidate for sure.
She has also hired me to teach some
tap at her summer dance camp in August.


One of my biggest DANCE
inspirations in my life, BRIAN FOLEY,
is celebrating a birthday today.
(I included a photo of him
 in my previous blog post)
I know he has inspired many dancers
and is the reason many dancers
have gone on to hanging
DANCE STUDIO SIGNS,
upon opening studios!
I hope he TAPS into a
HAPPY TAPPY BIRTHDAY today!


I received a forward email from
my Auntie Betty today
that ended in this thought...
"Remember while money talks,
CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM SINGS!"


So on that thought...
here is my rhyme of the day...

I love a quote and also a sign...
That has a message that's really fine.
Sometimes the meaning is one to keep,
And often the message is really deep.
Messages are also in the words of a song,
It's funny how that
soundtrack to life plays along!
Creating new thoughts within my head...
And between the lines I've already said!
