My sister-in-law sings in a community choir that has a policy of not turning anyone away, regardless of talent. All they require is enthusiasm. I love that idea. Still... I think I'll err on the side of caution and save the vocals for when I'm home alone.Michelle Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07748538761711892080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-80808991374029273392011-07-14T05:09:31.139+10:002011-07-14T05:09:31.139+10:00Hey, fabulous idea, Michelle!

It's enough to make a girl want to sing AND dance. Good luck with the song a day. I might manage a chorus or two at this rate.
