One of my teacher/trainers was Patsy

I learned how to pose my arm by being hypnotized πŸ’ƒ https://youtu.be/myDiXzf86IM?si=8fkCltmxusY_HLBv 

Five was the magic number ....

Andy filled in for me one day that I couldn't make it to practice. 

I asked Ellen if it would be okay ..


His mom came along Incase he pulled a muscle 

They had to keep telling Andy to smile like he means it ...

Andy was whispering to his dance classmate 
Andy was told to have a time out because he was talking and got caught.
His mother vouched for him and he was sentenced to a shorter time out. 
Andy got in uniform. 
"If you can't beat 'em, join 'em,"  said Andy

Time for line-up and roll call 
Testing the waters 

Andy and I go way back. He was an artilleryman in the army. 

He fired that howitzer ...

Target 🎯 confirmed. Everybody's down. Time to go.  Mission accomplished. 

I taught Andrew how to 🎯 target and load and go. I've been doing that for a long time. 

Next, Reba MacIntyre also filled in for me. She flew from Tennessee.  Yes, they loved her more than me. 

They loved her! 




I thought I did a good job on Christmas πŸŽ„ 🎁...I didn't even charge them for it...😝 Reba, you make me sick - of myself. I'm gonna go visit Dolly Parton tomorrow. 

I shot them with the cannon at practice and got better results than Andy. https://youtu.be/-BoAWgj-Z2c?si=7kFfJOLQniVgcNZ3

πŸ’₯ Boom πŸ’₯ 

They don't call me Toots for nothing πŸ˜‘
Elton John was impressed. He told me I still got it. He wrote Rocketman for me. πŸš€ 🎡🎢🎹🎼

I need to finish this later. I'm exhausted from making bread 🍞 And thank you Martha Stewart, your bread recipe is delicious πŸ˜‹


I'm not the only one who Debuted...Ellen Degenerous thought about it...

This gymnist says she will try out in a few years...
Lonny would have tried out but her eye doctor discouraged her. 



Jaimie Lee Curtis thought about trying out a few years back ..
Her husband didn't want her to...

And now she has a well-deserved award - I think it was an Oscar ♥️

She says she may try out for the Rockettes now ..
