It's about learning to Dance in the Rain.

Hey Yolanda! Lovely post! Glad you're dancing in the rain. I've got my tea and cookies by my side and am enjoying reading some IWSG posts after an exhilarating day in the Dandenong Ranges. Chat later. :-)

Nice thought, especially since like it rained a lot this year.

That's right, we have to act no matter what the conditions.
Shame I can't dance.

Got to love synchronicity... I just quoted that "dancing in the rain" bit on another blog, haha. Absolutely true, too—and glad you're not feeling insecure!

Happy Wednesday, friend :)

Aw, so sweet :) Cookies are my favorite sweets.

L.G. Keltner said...

I'm not a good dancer. It'll probably look like I'm having a spasm in the rain, but I've gotten good at not worrying about appearances. :)

Yolanda Renée said...

It rained all day, and I was out dancing, skipping, and dodging the droplets. :) It's all good!

Yolanda Renée said...

Thanks Shah! It's rare indeed! :)

Yolanda Renée said...

I hate umbrellas, a little rain never hurt anyone. Now a downpour, okay, maybe. :)

Yolanda Renée said...

Hi Emma, not today, but tomorrow is another day! :)

It's a cold, cold rain here, but it's all good - come on let's dance! :)

Hey Diane, love the Snoopy dance.

Yolanda Renée said...

Hi Megan, I need reminding once in a while too!

Yolanda Renée said...

Me too, Laura, to often I forget!

Yolanda Renée said...

It's been raining for two days here, and cold, oh my. But it's all good especially with the right music!

Yolanda Renée said...

Hi Alex, everyone can dance!

Yolanda Renée said...

Hi Guilie, just feeling good!

Oh yes, I thoroughly endorse dancing in the rain. Glad you are not feeling insecure today.

Funny write-up with the quarter bit. Loved it and I agree with that saying. It's a great one.
