Well, one possibility for me to take in the Tour, would have been Tucson, AZ. But do I want to be at our townhouse in July?   Not really.

So how about Sioux Falls, I thought...a one day's drive, and then we could go on and visit some relatives across the border in to southern Minnesota.

But, guess what?  They're SOLD OUT already!   This past tour, through the winter months, was sold out at almost every venue.  And it seems this one - heading to all new cities - is selling very well.  And of course this one includes Val The Golden MBT Winner.  And Peta.  And Jenna

Wow.   Have you watched her video with Ed Sheeran?  "Thinking our loud"

I've always loved this song but never watched the video until now.  Had no idea Brittany was in it.  She dances beautifully in it and Ed is pretty good for someone who's never danced!  Thanks for posting this, View!

Hey, all!!  It's been a few days.......threw myself back into real life with gusto after the finale, lol!!  Miss you all and hope that you are doing well.  My mom is about the same, going in to see her in the morning.  It breaks my heart that she really has no quality of life.  We do our best to cheer her up, but we all have jobs and families to care for also.....it really sucks.   

On a lighter note.......still on a Rumer and Val win "high"!!  I was so disappointed when he didn't win with Zendaya, it's bothered me ever since!!  So happy that he got his win and can finally relax!!  I know some of you disliked Rumer but, I really think she was a wonderful partner for Val.  I really enjoyed this whole season!!

Don't think I will be going to Sway, much as I would love to.  It's a very costly event, and with my mom's situation and my daughter's baby due.....don't think I should risk it.  I am happy that I got to go last summer, when I was still on a daily MnM high!!  Those were the days.......lol!!

I will pop in when I can, but I plan to wean myself from my daily dwts musings for a while!!  There is much to do around here and I am working summer school (ugh!!!!).   Even if I am not posting often, please know that I am ALWAYS thinking of you guys!!  The bond that we have created over this last year is so very special to me!!  April..... always in my thoughts and wishing your girl the easiest time possible.  

Love to all.................xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

I'm so sorry about your mother, Cassidy.  Make her as comfortable as possible and try to focus on all the good times you shared with her; it's really all you can do.

I never really connected with Rumer until I saw her with Val on the Road to the Finale show.  I could see that with her, Val was able to be himself.  He seemed more relaxed and at ease with himself.  They really did have a lovely connection both on and off the dance floor.  I'm happy Val finally got his mirrorball trophy and can now enjoy himself on the show, going forward, without that pressure he's always put on himself.

I really admire Barbara. I read her book a while ago and she is an inspiration to anyone who is aspiring to becoming an entrepreneur.  Her stories on how she achieved her success are interesting and oftentimes funny.

 

I love Barbara on the Shark Tank show.  I'll have to get her book.

Oh my goodness...when it rains it pours, doesn't it April?  I'm so sorry you and your husband had to go through all that on top of what your dear daughter is going through.  But, I'm happy to see that you still have your wonderful sense of humor about you.  It really helps when you're going through tough times.  And you know you have all of us here to hold your hand and pray for you, sis.
