Formerly known as "I'm a Hoe" but times and people change. It was a fun and productive metaphor that I enjoyed extending too far. Now it is done. The tool shed is retired, but the vicious momma is still here. I will be making adjustments to this blog as time allows.

Take a Bow, Say Goodbye
Just as I did ten years ago when I performed this tribute, I've decided to overcome my critical self-consciousness and share this video:

This made me cry.
You are so beautiful and awesome--as is your love for your mom and dad.
Your exquisite sense of rhythm and your natural sense of grace shine brightly in this video.
You are amazing, Rae Ann! I really hope you find the time to keep skating - you have a talent, girl! I also loved watching your dad's performance, I guess grace runs in your family. Thank you for sharing these family tributes with all of us.
ellen, thank you so much! You always make me feel better.
ellipsis, thanks! No I haven't skated since 1998. But now I'm seriously thinking of doing it again. My daughter especially wants to do it too.
Ann, thanks! I'm so glad that I had my dad's performance on video. My mom skated a little too, and my sister also. It was a good way for all of us to spend time together growing up.
Mr. G, thanks, I hope you're doing okay! Yeah, life has been pretty hard over the last half year or so but I'm doing alright. Glad to see you around!

Wow....just looked at that and your dad's video. Two very powerful tributes. I had no idea you had this "hidden" talent!
Been away a while - sorry to hear about your dad's passing. Hope you're well.
