What a Day!


This was a day to remember in the dance studio. Firstly, in the 17 years I have been teaching I have not had an "accident" during class. But that record has ended with the large puddle on the carpet from a poor little dancer who suddenly had to "go"! Much cleaning up and avoiding the wet spot for the rest of the day. In the afternoon class my assistant, Amanda, arrived with a heavily bandaged hand as she had cut herself the night before. Perhaps it was because she was being careful with one part of her body she landed awkwardly from a jump and injured her achilles tendon. Much scrambling round for ice followed. As she was sitting resting in pain a large jug filled with water and Autumn foliage which was sitting on the ledge above her head tipped over drenching her in cold water and leaves. What could we all do but laugh as we mopped up the floor and rang her husband to collect her with a change of clothes? Thankfully her, injury whilst painful, is not as bad as she first thought and the following morning she could still laugh about the whole incident. Whew! The next day everything was back to normal. Have you had days like this? I would love to hear from you.

  1. Oh my goodness! Your poor assistant! I am glad everything is back to normal now! It always seems that when one thing happens, many strange things start to sneak up on the same day!
