On the 9th day of Christmas

"On the 9th Day of Christmas my True Love gave to me, 9 Ladies dancing"

Dancing, is what I need to be doing right now to shed many pounds that have accumulated all over my body. If this song was based in the year 2013 the ladies would all be doing "Zumba"!  Speaking of Zumba, it is calling my name. I need to get with the program! Start working out! Or maybe I will wait till tomorrow.....=) But today's gifts in the songs is definitely something I could work on everyday of my life and continue to grow. Today's gifts, 9 Ladies Dancing, symbolize the Fruit of the Spirit. And I bet that right now that song is running through your head to remember what those fruit are. At least it is running through my head...Over and Over.... You know that song "The Fruit of the Spirit's not a ..Banana" With all the actions. My son loves that song. Yes the fruit of the spirit is not a banana, watermelon, or any literal fruit but it is, sing with me "Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self Control." From Galatians 5:22

After yesterdays, maids milking at minimum wage, today we have 9 ladies dancing. Apparently dancing ladies cost more then just the working ladies. Maybe because dancing is an "art"???? hmm I wonder sometimes, but either way today the True Love will be coughing up a big chunk of money! $6,294.03 worth! Wow! I think I may be in the wrong profession. Maybe I need to be a dancer! Though, I guarantee that people would not think it art! Doing Zumba, I feel like I got the steps down and really know what I am doing but when I see it in a mirror I reconsider that thought! But these dancing ladies must have grace and poise to be paid so much! Today my True Love pays out a lot to buy all the gifts
