  1. Flamenco has three different elements: dance (baile), song (cante) and, of course, the intense guitar (guitarra). I trained with a Flamenco dance company in Houston for many years. Contemporary Flamenco, which may irk many Flamenco purist, has been infused with Latin, Salsa, and Western styles. Growing up as a child, my father played the "traditional" Flamenco. As an adult, I enjoy the Contemporary Flamenco. Both to me are beautiful. Have you heard Jesse Cook (Canadian) and Otmar Liebert (German)? ~g
  2. Just make sure you wash the pants in "cold" water..."warm/hot" water tends to set a stain. g
  3. Put the rings away for now...deal with the emotional closure of your current relationship. In a year or so...revisit the ring issue. I like Keith's idea. g
  4. Very cool pictures!!! Thanks for sharing
  5. It would be cool if we get to see an aurora...dark skies are ideal.
  6. The University of Alaska has an aurora forecast page with pertinent information regarding where to look in the sky and how far the aurora will extend. University of Alaska Aurora Forecast Page g
  7. Check out my husband's website...he took several pics while we were in Alaska this Spring. Aurora in Alaska g
  8. I’m sorry to hear you are going through a difficult time in your relationship. Without knowing the relationship details (ages, single/married, prior relationship histories, communication styles…) here are a few thoughts: You are entitled to a caring and high quality relationship. The relationship will function to the extent to which it is built on a solid friendship and meets the needs of the two people involved. First, you’ll need to figure out what is causing you pain, problems and frustrations in this relationship. Of course, your girlfriend will have to do the same…a mutual agreement to resolve the issues at hand. Second, you’ll need to accept and acknowledge full ownership of your contributions to where this relationship is at the present moment. Don’t get stuck with who is right or wrong. Just figure out if whether what you’re both doing now is working or not working. Negotiate what can be done to accommodate both your needs and your girlfriend's needs. Hope you find a solution. g
  9. Ok...we're still waiting to hear you vent.
  10. Mistake. You're now a "serious boyfriend." Cutaway. He's only a "serious boyfriend" if he agrees to it. Two-way street.
  11. The best predictor of future behavior is present behavior. g
  12. Eloy is the half-way point between Phoenix (approx. 56 miles) and Tucson (approx. 54 miles) on Interstate 10.
  13. Super 8 Motel-Eloy (Phoenix Airport Shuttle Service) Driver: Zenon (520) 466-7804 (Motel #) (520) 466-3431 (Fax) (520) 603-2909 (Zenon –Cell for Shuttle) Super 8 Motel-Eloy shuttle prices are more competitive than the dz contract shuttle to and from Phoenix SkyHarbor Airport. If you stay at the Super 8 Motel-Eloy...they have free shuttle service from the motel to the dz in the morning and evenings. Rooms are still available. g
  14. Based on what Cathy has publicly posted on her website...I base my opinion and comments on those facts. I believe Cathy to be an honest, hardworking, and intelligent person/parent. I deal with many conflict resolution matters and find it hard to believe that there was no amicable solution. I'm sure there are many wonderful people who visit and frequent ZHills...and if it was "their" choice...Cathy would still be there. g
  15. This is a "cat-fight" with tabloid excitement! Uhhhh...you've gotta' be kidding!!!???!!! This is about an established Z-Hills' packer, hard working pregnant mother of four children trying to make a living. She was booted from a dz because she expressed an opinion...dz owners "reacted" instead of working and discussing the issue like adults. Sounds pretty heartless on behalf of dz owners. g
  16. Simple. Mind your own business. If you don't like it, don't deal with them. Sticking your nose in that kind of a situation is asking to get it busted. Exactly what I was thinking... g
  17. Sorry to hear about your brother's accident. The good news is that he's alive and he has a wonderful family who cares about him. If you can get away to visit your brother...I'm sure he would appreciate your company and emotional support. Take it one step at a time...it will all work out one way or another. Tons of energy coming your way... g
  18. Super 8 Motel-Eloy (520) 466-7804 is about 4 miles from the dz (nothing fancy but rooms are clean). Regular rooms are $54.53/night. They also offer several Family Rooms which have 2 Full/Queen beds and 2 bunk beds for $68.16/night if you want to share a room with other people. Super 8 Motel-Eloy offers shuttle service from the motel to the dz in the morning and pickup from the dz in the evening free of charge. g
  19. I have both a Bev Suit and Michigan Suit. I really love the Michigan Competition Suit!!!
  20. Huh??? Actively dying...only if you have no intent of pulling. g Intent? Intent doesn't cut it. I've seen what happens when people intend.. but don't, for whatever reason. I'll stick with Activly dying. t That's your choice...I'll stick with actively living.
  21. Mornin' Skymama...I've been there as a single parent. I'm the mother of my daughter...she's almost 21 years old. I remember those days...the only thing I can compare it to is "being eaten alive by minnows...SLOWLY." My advice would be to this evening have some one-on-one time with your daughter. Preferably neutral territory...away from home...take a walk to the park. Acknowledge all the changes she's going through...living in a new state, new high school, having to make new friends. Damn...this is very tough for her. The fact that she said "they're my tears" is she's feeling alot of emotional pain. You don't have to fix it or find solutions...just FEEL HER PAIN...that's part of what she needs right now. For now just use acknowledgement phrases..."I can see how you must feel so "sad, scared...fill in the blank". She wants to express her feelings of pain but they're all stuffed inside. The pain is manifesting itself in "door slamming, doing poorly in school, etc." Basically...she just needs someone to listen for now. g
